Product environment

Sécheron has been developing and manufacturing power converters for traction power substations for many years. We also offer a reliable, high-performance solution for reversible substations (or double converters). Our EFFICIENT-REV reversible controlled converter is based on the design of our air-cooled rectifier equipped with high-overload thyristor blocks and force-cooled, modular IGBT stacks for energy recovery. EFFICIENT-REV reduces overall energy consumption and is maintainable and durable.

Technical Data
  • Rated DC voltage 750 Volts, 1’500 Volts.
  • Efficiency >99% in rectifier mode, >97% in inverter mode.
  • Class VI overload (or other on demand).
  • Thyristor technology used in rectifier mode.
  • IGBT technology used in inverter mode.
  • Operates independantly without affecting the rectifier or inverter mode.
  • Protection degree up to IP32.
  • Reference standards: IEC 60146, IEC 60747, IEC 61000, EN 50328.
  • Reference standards: IEEE ANSI C34.2, IEEE 519.
