Electronic Power Units

Course No. JK 709050.0                  The lecture is held in German!

Target group
All company personnel who commission type TYA thyristor power units or type IPC IGBT power units. Engineers and technicians who plan systems using electronic power units, or who are responsible for their proper application.

Aims
You will learn about the design and function of thyristor and IGBT power units. The course gives participants the opportunity of becoming familiar with the material without too much theory, so that they can carry out an optimal adaptation of these instruments to a specific controlled process.

Prerequisites
Basic technical knowledge.
