Precision Clamps and Heat Sink Assemblies Heat Sink SCR IGBT Assemblies Wakefield-Vette compression pack heat sink and clamp systems provide customers with the complete system solution for proper installation and heat dissipation for high-power compression pack semiconductors. These high-quality mounting clamp assemblies are the industry standard for mounting, compressing, and clamping press-pack SCR, thyristors, rectifiers, and other high power disc packaged devices. Devices of these styles are most commonly found in power distribution equipment, industrial controls, transportation systems, and power supply and conversion systems. A clamp system consists of a crossbar and a spring assembly. The crossbar is a steel bar with two threaded rods installed in it. The rods are generally knurled and cold rolled into the bar to ensure proper fit. The cross bar assembly is covered in an epoxy coating which acts as an electrical insulator to ensure the devices are properly grounded. The crossbar is installed through the center web of the heat sink and sits in a channel surrounded by fins needed for thermal performance. On the back of the heat sink, a puck style device is installed and then the spring assembly is installed in the threaded rods of the crossbar. By tightening the nuts on the spring assembly, a compression force is applied to the center of the puck. Each spring assembly has a force gauge integrated into it to ensure ease of assembly and consistency of force applied to the many devices used in a system. The cross bar assembly is available in various lengths to meet the various needs of the industry. All components for device mounting are available separately for all standard compression requirements from 800 lbs. to 16,000 lbs. www.wakefield-vette.com PRECISION CLAMP HEAT SINKS PRECISION CLAMP HEAT SINKS PRECISION COMPRESSION MOUNTING CLAMP SYSTEMS Wakefield-Vette Engineering compression pack heat sinks and clamp systems provide electrical and industrial equipment manufacturers with complete system solutions for proper installation and heat dissipation for high-power compression pack semiconductor.

Max SCR DIA Clamp assemblies will accommodate devices with overall case diameters to 5.25 in. (133.4 mm) maximum. Vertical device mounting space available for assemblies is determined by selecting an appropriate series crossbar by length which, when a series spring assembly is selected (based on maximum clamping force required), will provide the necessary vertical clearance space. For the 130 and 139 Series, this determination is made by subtracting the chosen spring assembly “Z” dimension (refer to dimensional tables) from the crossbar assembly “X” dimension minimum and maximum values, to calculate the available device mounting space clearance for the particular assembly combination. Spring assembly “Z” dimension is the dimension measured from the spring assembly device mounting surface to the spring assembly top surface. Some series have fixed dimensions for alpha characters. All spring assemblies are designed with a force indicator gauge. 130 SERIES Clamp Series Force Range Extrusion Profile 101.6 mm ALL 800 - 16000 LBS XX7151 84 mm ALL 800 - 16000 LBS XX6351 63 mm ALL 144 143 144 144 143 143 143 143 800 - 16000 LBS 800 - 6000 LBS 800 - 6000 LBS 800 - 6000 LBS 800 - 6000 LBS 800 - 6000 LBS 800 - 6000 LBS 800 - 6000 LBS 800 - 6000 LBS XX5735 XX5360 XX10239 O16235 O14442 XX3529 XX5730 O14191 XX3849 143 143 143 143 143 143 143 143 143 143 143 143 800 - 6000 LBS 800 - 6000 LBS 800 - 6000 LBS 800 - 6000 LBS 800 - 6000 LBS 800 - 6000 LBS 800 - 6000 LBS 800 - 6000 LBS 800 - 6000 LBS 800 - 6000 LBS 800 - 6000 LBS 800 - 6000 LBS XX5733 XX3559-2 XX5736 XX3561-2 XX5732 XX5731 XX3560-2 O13450 XX4554 XX5331 OO3537 XX5306 143 800 - 6000 LBS O14779 50 mm 40 mm COMPRESSION MOUNTING CLAMP ASSEMBLIES FOR SEMICONDUCTORS TO 2.25 IN.

Wakefield recommends using two heat sinks, one on each side of the SCR. When received, the top edges of the force indicator should be in line with bottom edge of the spring leaf as shown below. This is the zero position. If this is not the case, move it to zero with your hands or a pair of pliers. Too low Too high Proper zero position If using one heat sink only: The roll pin will need to be adjusted to fit into the blind hole of the SCR. Check the depth of the blind hole and allow a clearance of at least 0.025 in (0.65 mm). Care will be needed to ensure that the upper retaining washer is held against the top leaf spring. Keep washer fixed as shown Roll pin ≤ (SCR hole depth - 0.025”) www.wakefield-vette.com Precision Clamps and Heat Sink Assemblies Clamp Assembly Procedure If using two heat sinks on both sides of the component: place the heat sink on a flat surface and put the leaf spring assembly between the fins on center with the roll pin into the hole. With a hammer drive the pin into the hole and through the heat sink, so that the pin comes through the other side and protrudes 0.050 in (1.3 mm). This is helpful in indexing the SCR to keep it concentric to the forces applied when the nuts are tightened. This also holds the spring leaf assembly in place. 0.05” Apply a non-silicone based thermal compound to the spotface of the heat sink without the spring leaf assembly/roll pin. It is recommended that Electrical Joint Compound No. 2 (EJC #2) be used, as it contains a fluoride compound that removes the surface oxides on both the heat sink surface and the pole face of the SCR. Do not use Wakefield Type 120 compound, as it will cause a hot spot at this joint. There are many methods for applying the proper thickness of grease with full coverage and without excessive squeeze-out; this should be done by trial and error, removing the SCR and checking the amount of coverage. Electrical Joint Compound No. 2 (EJC #2) is supplied by: ACA Conductor Accessories www.acasolutions.com (800) 866-7385 Apply thermal joint compound to hatched area www.wakefield-vette.com Precision Clamps and Heat Sink Assemblies Clamp Assembly Procedure Apply the thermal compound to the spotface of the heat sink with the spring leaf assembly and place the SCR in position on the spotface, centering the SCR on the roll pin. At this time fit the crossbar studs between the two innermost fins and through the holes of the other heat sink (without the spring leaf assembly). Slowly drop the crossbar studs through the holes in the heat sink with the SCR and spring leaf assembly, making sure that the SCR fits over the spotface on the upper heat sink. Then flip the assembly upside down, supporting the crossbar against the inner surface of the heat sink. Drop the washers over the threaded ends of the studs, and then apply the nuts to the threads and screw on until finger tight. 2. Center SCR on pin 3. Drop second heat sink and crossbar assembly onto first heat sink 1. Apply thermal grease 5. While supporting crossbar, apply swivel washers and nuts 4. Flip assembly and support crossbar Precision Clamps and Heat Sink Assemblies Clamp Assembly Procedure Tighten the nuts alternately one-quarter turn each until you have reached the required force recommended for the SCR. This occurs when the edge of the marked step on the force indicator matches the bottom edge of the spring leaf as shown below. “4” lines up with bottom edge of spring leaf Æ 4000 lb on 6000 lb scale Additional notes: Avoid short cuts in assembling these components, as it is important that deflection of the spring leaf assembly be given precedence over all other choices of force measuring techniques. Do not use torque wrenches to set the force level, as torque is not a measure of force on these assemblies. The lubricants and surfaces of the nuts and washers will vary and cause a gross misrepresentation of force if torque is used as a force indicator. Spotfaces are machined to a minimum depth to provide a flat surface for the SCR to sit on. The pole face of the SCR is only about 0.060 in (1.5 mm) above the surrounding bellows ring that is bonded to the SCR porcelain housing. The pole faces of the SCR deflect slightly as the force is applied to make contact to the silicon dioxide disc inside. If the spotface is too deep on the heat sink, the shoulder of the bellows will make contact to the heat sink, and the proper force required at the pole faces will not be met. Every clamp/heat sink/SCR assembly will not have the same physical heat sink thicknesses to accommodate, and will require that the customer install small pins into the heat sinks to index the SCRs. The pins in the leaf spring assemblies will not be long enough in most cases and cannot be driven through the thicker heat sinks. In these applications the pin is driven into the heat sink a minimum distance to lock the leaf spring assembly to the heat sink.
