PP400T060

Overview

The Powerex PP400T060 is a POW-R-PAK three-phase IGBT assembly rated for 400 Amperes and 600 Volts. It integrates F-series trench gate IGBTs with an isolated gate drive board, low inductance laminated bus structure, and a 27000 µF DC-link capacitor bank. The unit supports DC bus voltages up to 400VDC and switching frequencies above 20kHz. Key electrical parameters include a collector current of 400A, peak current of 800A, and maximum collector dissipation of 1040 Watts at Tj < 150°C. Junction temperature ranges from -40°C to +150°C.

Feature Summary

• Integrated gate drive board featuring fault monitoring, overcurrent detection, and shoot-through prevention.
• Low inductance laminated bus structure combined with isolated gate drive power supplies.
• Built-in protection mechanisms including overvoltage, undervoltage lockout, and overtemperature shutdown.
• System status LEDs and analog feedback signals for output current, DC link voltage, and heatsink temperature.

Applications

• Three-phase motor control drives
• Uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems
• Industrial power conversion applications

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific revision suffix against the official datasheet before procurement, as ordering codes may indicate variations in included accessories or firmware versions. Confirm that the required mating connectors, specifically the 3M latching header and IDC socket, are sourced separately if not included in the base package. Ensure the cooling infrastructure provides the specified 1500 LFM airflow to maintain thermal performance within the stated junction temperature limits.

Selection Notes

Select this assembly for high-power density applications requiring integrated protection and low inductance switching. The unit is designed for forced air-cooled heatsinks; verify that the mechanical mounting torque specifications for AC terminals (90 in-lb) and DC terminals (150 in-lb) are met during installation. Consider the 21 lb weight when designing support structures. Ensure the control system can interface with the 0-15V PWM inputs and open-collector error outputs.
