The DKFT3000A / 8-18 Fast Turn-Off Thyristor is a high-power disc-type semiconductor device designed for demanding industrial power control and switching applications. It features fast turn-off performance, high current capability, low switching loss, and reliable thermal behavior in double-side cooled assemblies. With an average on-state current of 3000A and a repetitive peak off-state/reverse voltage range of 1900V to 2500V, this thyristor is well suited for high-power converter systems, chopper circuits, and induction heating equipment.
