Re: [TCML] IGBT CM600 max current ?



Chris,

I have successfully run a CM600 at 4500 Peak Amps.
You can see the effect here, where the coil is producing 60 inches of spark from 1 such brick.

I call it world record, that`s for fun: It is in the group, T-BRISG, and since I am currently the only one in that lot, it was easy.

I don`t know how long time the brick can last this kind of abuse, but it is at least in the hours.

Cheers, Finn Hammer

Hi all,

Does anyone have any results for the max current the CM600 will be happy with ? some people seem to run IGBT at mugh higher than rated current. Says 1.4KA on the PDF. Wondering if anyone has any lucking running them at a higher current before I blow big bucks on blowing them up! also going to try running 2 in parallel for more current.. tricky but hopefully it will take the current stress off a single IGBT a little...

Chris
