TZ240N30KOFHPSA1

SCRs - Modules Overview

The TZ240N30KOFHPSA1 is a single-phase control silicon thyristor module from the Infineon TZ240N series. It features a 3 kV repetitive peak off-state voltage and supports a maximum RMS on-state current of 700 A with an average current rating of 240 A. The device operates within a junction temperature range of -40°C to +125°C and utilizes a screw mount base installation style. Key electrical characteristics include a maximum gate trigger current of 250 mA, a holding current maximum of 300 mA, and a non-repetitive surge current capacity of 6100 A at 50 Hz.

SCRs - Modules Feature Summary

• Single SCR phase control topology for high-power applications
• Robust thermal management via base-mounted screw installation
• High surge current capability for fault protection

SCRs - Modules Applications

• Industrial motor drives
• HVDC transmission systems
• Static VAR compensators

SCRs - Modules Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix HPSA1 against official Infineon documentation to confirm compliance requirements and marking details. Confirm availability status as this part may be subject to discontinuation notices. Ensure ordering quantities align with manufacturer standard packaging configurations. Cross-reference the SP000096939 alias for accurate inventory tracking.

SCRs - Modules Selection Notes

Select this module when a single-phase configuration is required for voltages up to 3 kV. Evaluate the 240 A average current rating against continuous load requirements. Consider the 700 A RMS capability for thermal design purposes. Verify that the 250 mA gate trigger current matches the available drive circuit capabilities.

SCRs - Modules Part Context

This component belongs to the TZ240N family of power block thyristor modules designed for heavy industrial use. It shares the 50 mm package form factor with other variants in the series, such as the TZ240N36KOF, differing primarily in voltage ratings. The module integrates a single silicon chip optimized for phase control applications.

SCRs - Modules Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements within the same voltage class include the TZ240N36KOF if higher voltage tolerance is acceptable. For lower voltage requirements, the TZ240N30KOF (without HPSA1 suffix) may serve as a functional equivalent, pending verification of pinout and mechanical compatibility.
