Product Description

The two SCR devices sit in a single A2 pressure-contact industrial package, allowing direct mounting onto a shared heatsink without extra insulation. It converts AC mains into regulated DC for DC motor speed control, soft starters and industrial power-supply duties. ABB MT3-595-16-A2-N is a dual thyristor (SCR) power module built for high-current controlled rectification in ABB DC drive and motor-control systems.

Basic Product Information

  • A2 pressure-contact industrial housing with electrically isolated copper baseplate
  • Rated for 595 A average on-state current and 1600 V repetitive peak voltage
  • Suited to controlled AC/DC rectification, DC motor drives and soft starters
  • Dual SCR (thyristor) devices in a single half-bridge module for compact rectifier designs

Technical Specifications

Version & Model Difference

The MT3-595-16-A2-N belongs to ABB's MT3-595 series of dual thyristor modules; the '16' denotes the 1600 V voltage class and 'A2' the pressure-contact housing. Some distributors also list the MT3-595 family as IGBT modules, but ABB/MT3 documentation identifies it as a thyristor (SCR) device. The trailing '-N' marks a specific production variant; confirm the exact suffix when ordering.

Application Scenarios

  • Controlled rectification for ABB DC motor drives and speed controllers
  • AC/DC motor soft starters and phase-angle power control
  • Industrial welding power supplies and frequency converters
