Remove faulty thyristor
1. Remove the screws of the DC-busbars and branch fuses preventing the stack to be prized open.
Note:
It depends on the location of the defective thyristor which DC-busbar and fuses have to be disconnected.
2. Write down the direction and location of the thyristors to be removed and mark their gate leads.
3. Remove the gate leads if possible.
4. Loosen the mounting clamp at the top of the thyristor stack.
While loosen the mounting clamp the indicating spring must be pulled out a little, otherwise the
spring will be damaged!
Do not remove the nuts totally, otherwise the treaded rods will fall down!
5. Attach the disassembly tool (3ADT 621 023 P1) at the faulty thyristor and prize open the upper and lower
heat sinks.
6. Remove the thyristors.
To center the thyristors spring pins are used. The pins are inlayed into all lower heat sinks. Open
the gap wide enough that the thyristor and the pins are not damaged while removing the
