    2 – Technical Specifications Technical specifications of the 12kVAr, 25kVAr, 50kVAr and 80kVAr thyristor modules are listed in Table 2.1. This table gives guaranteed ratings and exceeding these guaranteed ratings will significantly reduce module life expectancy.
  • Page 5: Setup

    Wiring Diagrams section. “Superfast” electronic branch fuses must be used to protect the thyristor modules! 12kVAr and 25kVAr modules do not require an auxiliary voltage connection. These modules are powered internally. The 50kVAr and 80kVAr modules are equipped with a fan and are designed for forced cooling.
