Q1: What is the MTC thyristor module used for?
A1: It is mainly used for AC voltage regulation, power control, rectification, heating control, and motor control systems.
Q2: Does the MTC module need a heatsink?
A2: Yes. Most MTC modules require a matching heatsink. High-current models must be installed with proper cooling.
Q3: What current models are available?
A3: Common models include MTC110A, MTC200A, MTC300A, MTC500A, and other ratings from 25A to 2000A.
Q4: Can it be used for three-phase control?
A4: Yes. Three modules can be used together for three-phase AC control.
Q5: How should I select the current rating?
A5: For resistive loads, choose based on about 80% of rated current. For inductive loads, choose based on about 50% of rated current, and leave enough safety margin.
