Description

ABB 5SHX1960L0004 (3BHL000390P0104) Reverse‑Conducting IGCT Power Semiconductor Module

Product Details

The 5SHX1960L0004, part number 3BHL000390P0104, is a high‑power RC‑IGCT (Reverse‑Conducting Integrated Gate‑Commutated Thyristor) manufactured by ABB. It adopts press‑pack disc ceramic housing with integrated gate commutated drive unit, rated blocking voltage 5500 V, continuous current 1960 A, optimized for medium‑voltage megawatt‑level power conversion systems. It combines thyristor’s low conduction loss with hard forced turn‑off capability, snubberless operation capability. Double‑side cooling interface supports water‑cooling or forced‑air cooling for high heat dissipation efficiency. Hermetically sealed packaging provides strong shock‑resistance and anti‑pollution performance for heavy‑duty power‑electronic cabinets. Widely used as spare‑part for ABB ACS1000 and other medium‑voltage converter retrofitting projects.
