Precautions:
- Ensure proper liquid cooling (flow rate ≥2 L/min) to maintain junction temperature below 150°C — overheating degrades performance of ABB 5SHY35L4503 3BHB004693R0001 3BHB004692R0002 5SXE01-0127.
- Use torque-controlled tools for terminal connections to prevent contact resistance issues.
- Avoid exceeding pulse current limits (1200 A for 10 ms) — prolonged overcurrent causes irreversible damage.
- Store modules in dry, ESD-protected environments before installation to prevent moisture absorption and electrostatic damage.
