GENERAL INFORMATIONWith many years of experience in traction rectifiers, sécheron is able to offer a reliable and suitable range of controlled rectifiers for dC traction power supply and industrial applications. our natural air cooled rectifiers are equipped with thyristors with a high overload capacity and a high blocking voltage.
design of the rectifiers is based on ideally sized and proven semi-conductors (thyristors) offering particularly high performances and reliability. Rectifiers are designed in accordance with customer specifications and International, European and American standards.
Thanks to its complete range of rated voltages, sécheron controlled rectifier products cover most of the worldwide transit authority networks.

The controlled rectifier has two control mode:
• Static drop voltage control: The firing angle is fixed and the voltage-current characteristic of the rectifier follows the characteristics of a non-controlled diode rectifier. The dC output voltage decreases with current by inductive and resistive voltage drops.
• Dynamic voltage control: The firing angle is regulated at any time to maintain the dC output voltage at a defined level. The voltage regulation compensated the inductive and resistive voltage drops up to 150% overload current in highly dynamic manner.

PROTECTIONSOVERVOLTAGE PROTECTION

SHORT-CIRCUIT PROTECTION
• Internal overvoltage: during turn-off, the load current of the thyristor does not stop flowing immediately but continues briefly in reverse direction as reverse recovery current. This peak reverse recovery current causes a voltage peak which is eliminated by an individual snubber circuit mounted in parallel with each thyristor.
• External overvoltage: The external overvoltage is essentially due to lightening strikes on the line and to short-circuits. The rectifier is equipped on the dC side of a RC filter capable of absorbing a significant surge. A surge arrester can optionally be installed directly between the output terminals of the rectifier.
All controlled rectifiers are designed to withstand external short circuit without damage until the MV circuit-breaker opens.
• Rectifiers with fuses (Np): Composed of several parallel thyristors on each branch, the failed thyristor will be isolated from the circuit by melting the associated fuse, witnessed by the fuses own micro-contact. After melting the fuse, the controlled rectifier is withdrawn from operation.
