5SHY3545L0014: Product OverviewThe 5SHY3545L0014 is a high-power IGBT (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor) module from ABB’s StakPak series, engineered for demanding applications in medium-voltage power electronics. This press-pack IGBT serves as a fundamental switching component in voltage source converters (VSCs) utilized in equipment such as medium-voltage variable frequency drives (VFDs) for industrial motors, renewable energy systems, and flexible AC transmission system (FACTS) devices. Its primary role is to perform high-speed switching of electrical power, enabling precise control over voltage and frequency in high-power conversion systems.The module features a press-pack housing design, which distinguishes it from conventional IGBT modules. This construction allows for double-sided cooling, significantly enhancing thermal management by dissipating heat from both sides of the semiconductor die. The robust mechanical design enables multiple devices to be pressed together in a stack configuration, facilitating series connection to achieve the high voltage-blocking capabilities required for medium-voltage applications (typically several kilovolts). This design is critical for ensuring reliability and longevity in high-stress operational environments.

Core Features & Customer ValueThe press-pack design with double-sided cooling provides superior thermal performance compared to single-sided cooling modules. This allows for higher power density in converter designs, resulting in more compact system footprints. For system integrators and end-users, this translates to space savings in electrical rooms and potentially reduced cooling system requirements. The enhanced thermal management also contributes to higher reliability and longer service life under thermal cycling conditions.A key safety feature of this IGBT is its failure mode. Press-pack devices are designed to fail to a short circuit, which is a critical advantage in series-connected stacks used for high-voltage applications. This predictable failure mode allows for the implementation of system-level protection strategies, such as bypass mechanisms, to maintain operational continuity even after a device failure. This design philosophy enhances overall system availability and enables fault-tolerant operation, which is essential in critical industrial processes.Typical ApplicationsIn medium-voltage drives for large pumps, fans, and compressors, the 5SHY3545L0014 IGBT is used in the inverter section to convert DC power to variable frequency AC output. This enables precise speed control of high-power motors, leading to significant energy savings and process optimization in industries such as water treatment, mining, and oil & gas.In STATCOM (Static Synchronous Compensator) systems, these IGBTs form part of the voltage source converter that dynamically injects or absorbs reactive power to stabilize grid voltage. Their fast switching capability allows for rapid response to grid disturbances, improving power quality and system stability.
