Series M50 SCR/Diode
50-100 Amp SCR/DIODE Modules
The M50 Series modules utilize highly
efficient thermal management of pro-
vide high surge capability, long lifetime
and reliable performance. Available in
eight standard circuits, all models come
in an industry standard package, pro-
vide 2500Vrms from all terminals to the
baseplate and are UL recognized (file
no. E72445).
Manufactured in Crydom's ISO 9002
Certified facility for optimum product
performance and reliability.
