SanRex 3-Phase Bridge Diode Modules
SanRex 3-Phase Bridge Diode Modules are integrated high‑power rectifier solutions designed for reliable three‑phase AC‑DC conversion in industrial power electronics. The SanRex 3-phase bridge diode modules incorporate six rectifier diodes in a single compact bridge configuration, reducing component count, simplifying system design, and improving overall reliability. They are optimized for line‑frequency and low‑frequency rectification, making the devices well-suited for mains‑connected equipment.
These modules are available in a wide range of voltage and current ratings to support applications from medium‑power systems to high‑current industrial rectifiers. The components offer stable forward voltage characteristics, high average current capability, and strong surge current tolerance, enabling dependable operation during startup, overload, and transient conditions. The diode structures are designed for balanced current sharing and continuous operation in demanding electrical environments.
From a mechanical and thermal perspective, the SanRex 3‑phase bridge diode modules feature rugged power module construction with low junction‑to‑case thermal resistance for efficient heat dissipation. Designed for direct heatsink mounting, these modules support high maximum junction temperatures and long service life. Secure screw terminals and standardized package outlines make the devices easy to install and integrate, supporting use in motor drives, inverters, UPS systems, battery chargers, welding equipment, industrial DC power supplies, renewable energy systems, and transportation power electronics.
