RC-IGCT 5SHX1960L0006 91MM GVC736 3BHB016120R0002   

From the model designation “RC-IGCT5SHX1960L0006 91MM GVC736 3BHB016120R0002” provided,

we can extract some key information to speculate on its specification and use, but please note that there

is no specific technical documentation or information provided by the manufacturer. These are only general interpretations based on the type identification.

First, the model number contains the words “IGCT”, which indicates that it is most likely an Integrated

Gate-Commutated Thyristor. IGCT is a power electronic device that combines the high voltage and high

current capabilities of a thyristor with the controllable switching characteristics of a GTO or an insulated-gate bipolar transistor (IGBT).

About the specifications:

5SHX1960L0004

The part “5SHX1960L0006” may refer to the specific model or configuration of the IGCT device. Where,

“1960” may indicate the rated voltage or rated current class of the IGCT, but the specific values and units need to refer to the manufacturer’s documentation.

About Use:

IGCT devices are commonly used in high-voltage direct current (HVDC) transmission systems, large motor

drives, wind power generation, and large-scale power conversion in industrial applications. Their high

reliability, high efficiency, low loss and ease of maintenance make them ideal for handling high voltages and currents.

Specifically, IGCT devices can be used to:

HVDC transmission: In the power transmission system, it is used to convert alternating current into direct

current to achieve long-distance, high-efficiency power transmission.
Motor drive: In large motor drive systems, as a switching device to control motor start, stop and speed regulation.
Renewable energy system: In renewable energy systems such as wind power generation and solar power

generation, it is used for electric energy conversion and grid-connection.
Industrial applications: In industrial automation, power system protection, electrolytic aluminum and other

industrial processes, used to achieve efficient conversion and control of electric energy.
