Gating

The gating group and the GCT (Gate-Commutated Thyristor) power semiconductor together
form a fixed unit, the IGCT (Integrated Gate-Commutated Thyristor).
The power semiconductors are connected via the gating boards. The gating command is
transmitted from the power stack adapter (PSA) to the gating board via a plastic fiber-optic
cable connection.
3.4 Operating principle
A constant DC-link voltage for the Motor Module is generated from the line voltage. The Motor
Module provides the power for the connected motor via the DC-link voltage.
The DC link capacitors smooth the voltage and stop the energy in the DC link. The DC link
capacitors are maintenance free and self-healing. The device is switched off when the circuit
breaker is disconnected/opened. The DC link is discharged by means of balancing resistors.
