Bulletin I27094 rev. B 03/01 IRK.L240 SERIES Power Modules MAGN-A-pak FAST RECOVERY DIODES Features Fast recovery time characteristics Electrically isolated base plate Industrial standard package Simplified mechanical designs, rapid assembly High surge capability Large creepage distances 3000 V RMS isolating voltage UL E78996 approved 250A Description The IRK.L240 Series of MAGN-A-paks uses fast recovery power diodes in four basic configurations. The semiconductors are electrically isolated from the metal base, allowing common heatsinks and compact assemblies to be built. Application includes power supplies, battery chargers, welders, motor controls and general industrial current rectification. These modules are intended for those applications where fast recovery characteristics are required.
