Genuine Semikron Danfoss SKM50GAL12T4: a 1200 V / 50 A IGBT module in SEMITRANS 2 housing.
IGBT modules are the power switches of inverter drives, UPS systems, welders and converters: they switch the DC-link voltage to build the motor or output current, so a failed module is one of the most common causes of a drive fault.

The SKM50GAL12T4 is a 1200 V IGBT module and comes as bare module without pre-applied thermal interface material or lid, ideal for custom assembly processes.

Compatibility and replacement
Order with the complete Semikron type SKM50GAL12T4; in Semikron type codes the digits and letters set the current, voltage class, topology and chip generation, so a module with a similar number may not be a direct replacement.
If the marking of the old module is burnt or unreadable, send us a photo and the drive model and we will confirm the correct Semikron type before quoting.
Before you replace it
- Voltage class (1200 V or 1700 V) and current rating
- Topology (half-bridge, chopper, sixpack)
- Housing (SEMITRANS 2/3, SEMiX) and terminal layout
Frequently asked questions
Which chip technology is used?
IGBT 4 Fast (Trench), according to the Semikron Danfoss product data.
Which housing does it use?
SEMITRANS 2, with dimensions of 94x34x30 mm, according to the Semikron Danfoss product data.
Should the gate driver be checked when the module failed?
Yes. A failed IGBT often damages the gate driver as well; check the driver, the DC-link capacitors and the thermal paste before fitting the new module.
What is the topology?
Chopper/Booster (IGBT), according to the Semikron Danfoss product data.
What is the current and voltage rating?
50 A at a voltage class of 1200 V, according to the Semikron Danfoss product data.
Is it new and original?
Yes. We supply new, original parts in the manufacturer packaging, with a 1-year warranty.
Can I get a price and delivery time?
Prices are quoted on request. Send the order number, quantity and delivery country on WhatsApp and we will reply with price and delivery time; air shipping is usually 5 to 7 days once ready, with a 1-year warranty.
