The thyristor modules MTA26-18-215F3 are characterized by high electrical and thermal cycling capability, meaning high reliability and long lifetime in intensive operation modes. The thyristor modules are housed in a industry-standard housing making it easy to integrate the device into existing equipment. The two-position modules have different switching circuits (electrical circuit diagrams): МТC – half-bridge; МТK – scheme with common cathode; МТA – scheme with common anode. Series (ratings) of thyristor modules: MTA26-6 (26A 600V), MTA26-7 (26A 700V), MTA26-8 (26A 800V), MTA26-9 (26A 900V), MTA26-10 (26A 1000V), MTA26-12 (26A 1200V), MTA26-14 (26A 1400V), MTA26-16 (26A 1600V), MTA26-18 (26A 1800V). The main (power) terminals are on the top of the case and are marked as 1, 2, 3 (common anode-anode, cathode, cathode). The control terminals are marked as K1, G1, K2, G2. Dual thyristor modules MTA series are used in various power equipment - power and control units, power regulators, AC regulators, DC motors control, AC motor soft starters, converters, controllers of blast furnaces or chemical processes, welding equipment, and as rectifiers for AC converters.
