Product Description
ABB FS450R12KE3/AGDR-61C IGBT Module with Drive
Product Overview
- The ABB FS450R12KE3/AGDR-61C is a high-power Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) Module paired with an integrated gate driver (AGDR-61C), designed for industrial applications requiring efficient power switching and control. The FS450R12KE3 IGBT module, originally manufactured by Infineon and distributed by ABB, is part of the Econopack series, optimized for applications such as motor drives, inverters, renewable energy systems (e.g., wind and solar), and traction systems. The AGDR-61C gate driver enhances the module’s performance by providing precise control and protection features. This combination is commonly used in industries like power generation, transportation, and heavy manufacturing for reliable and high-efficiency power conversion.
