5SHX10H6004 (IGCT module), 3BHB003230R0101 (power drive board), and 5SXE05-0152 (interface module) are core components of ABB's medium-voltage and high-voltage frequency conversion systems, forming a complete solution of "IGCT power unit + drive control + signal interface". They are primarily used in high-power scenarios such as industrial motor drives and energy conversion. The three components must be used together as a matched set.
