Description
The ABB GVC736CE101(with订货号3BHE039203R0101 and component code 5SXE12-0184)is a high-power industrial thyristor module,serving as the”power conversion core”in ABB’s medium-voltage drive systems and power electronic equipment.Engineered for rectification,inversion,and grid commutation,it enables precise control of large electrical currents and high voltages in applications like medium-voltage inverters(ACS6000/ACS800MV),high-voltage rectifiers,and FACTS(Flexible AC Transmission Systems)devices.
With a rated voltage of 4500V and current capacity up to 3000A,this module resolves two critical industrial pain points:inefficient power conversion in high-power systems and unreliable operation in harsh industrial environments.Unlike conventional thyristors,its robust encapsulation and dual cooling compatibility(water/forced air)ensure stable performance in metallurgy,petrochemical,and power generation sectors—where voltage fluctuations and high temperatures often cause component failures.Its integration with ABB’s drive systems reduces energy loss by up to 15%compared to generic modules,making it an indispensable component for energy-intensive industries.
Application Scenarios
A large steel mill in Hebei faced challenges with its 10kV rolling mill drive system:legacy thyristor modules(2500A/4000V)suffered from frequent overheating,causing 8 unplanned shutdowns annually and 12%energy waste.After deploying 24 ABB GVC736CE101 modules,the mill’s ACS800MV drive system achieved stable rectification of 3000A current with 4500V input.The module’s water-cooling design reduced operating temperature by 25°C,eliminating overheating failures,while its efficient power conversion cut energy consumption by 14%.Over 12 months,the mill avoided 6 potential shutdowns,saved¥2.3 million in energy costs,and increased rolling mill throughput by 9%.
This scenario highlights the module’s role as a”high-power reliability enabler.”By combining high voltage/current capacity with robust cooling,it ensures uninterrupted operation of critical medium-voltage systems.

Technical Principles and Innovative Values
Innovation Point 1:High-Power Density with Low Energy Loss
The GVC736CE101 achieves 4500V/3000A capacity in a compact 280×180mm form factor via advanced thyristor chip technology.Its optimized doping profile reduces on-state voltage drop to≤1.8V(at 3000A),cutting conduction losses by 20%compared to competing modules.A petrochemical plant’s ACS6000 drive system verified that this design reduced annual energy consumption by 1.2GWh.
Innovation Point 2:Adaptive Cooling for Harsh Environments
Unlike fixed-cooling thyristors,this module supports both water and forced air cooling,adapting to diverse industrial conditions.The water-cooling interface uses a nickel-plated copper block with microchannels,achieving 3x higher heat dissipation efficiency than air cooling.In a desert-based solar inverter project,the water-cooled configuration maintained module temperature at 65°C despite 45°C ambient heat,ensuring 99.9%availability.
Innovation Point 3:Integrated Protection for System Safety
The module integrates three-layer protection:fast overcurrent clamping(response≤10μs),overvoltage snubber circuits,and thermal shutdown.Unlike generic modules requiring external protection devices,its built-in safeguards reduce system complexity by 30%.A hydroelectric plant reported zero module failures during a 2kV voltage surge,thanks to the integrated overvoltage protection.
Application Cases and Industry Value
Case 1:HVDC Grid Commutation(Brazil)
A Brazilian HVDC transmission project used generic thyristors that caused 3%commutation loss and frequent grid instability.Deploying GVC736CE101 modules in the换流阀reduced commutation loss to 1.2%,stabilizing grid voltage fluctuations within±0.5%.The module’s 4500V rating enabled direct integration with the 80kV grid,eliminating 2 intermediate voltage transformers.Over 2 years,the project saved$1.8 million in energy loss and passed all grid compliance audits.
Case 2:Aluminum Smelter Rectification(Canada)
A Canadian aluminum smelter needed 10kV rectifiers to supply 2500A current to electrolysis cells.Legacy modules required 4 parallel units per rectifier,causing 5%current imbalance.Using GVC736CE101’s 3000A capacity,the smelter reduced parallel modules to 2 per rectifier,cutting imbalance to 1.2%.The module’s thermal stability also reduced rectifier downtime by 80%,increasing aluminum production by 6%and saving$2.1 million annually.
