7. Precautions
Installation: Use ABB-recommended torque specifications (10–12 N·m) for mechanical mounting to avoid package stress. Ensure proper alignment of the cooler and module for optimal heat transfer.
Electrical Handling: Always ground the module during installation to prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage. Use shielded cables for gate driver connections to minimize noise interference.
Maintenance: Regularly inspect the cooling system for leaks or debris, as poor thermal management can reduce module lifespan by up to 50%. Monitor driver board diagnostics for early detection of component wear.
