Need help identifying SCR

Okay. So I have a couple of these SCR's on a board and one is shorted. Been trying to find any info I can on this, but am coming up short. I would appreciate it if any of you wonderful people here can help. I assume that the AEG is the brand, however, I cannot find anything on that.

As seen in the pictures the labeling is as follows:
top line: AEG 2687
next line: T 9.5
next line: N6 FOC
last line: H1 H2 G

 

The Motorola 2N 2687 thyristor has the following

Max repetitive voltage 30 volts

Max rms on state current 6 amps

DC gate trigger 1 volt at 0.2 amps

Holding current 2 milliamps

However it is referred to as a TO18 package.

This may or may not be the same baby, what is your application?

 

that looks more like a triac to me, note the "H1 H2 G" pin markings

 

Yes, I had figured that the 2687 was the date code after doing a little more research. I also found the attached pdf which if I am to trust it I would think that the part # may be T9.5N6 or similar. Then folowing the listing it may be a 9.5A 600V SCR. Though this is still questionable as I did some searches and could not find anything of those ratings in a TO-220 package. Then comes the question of what the gate drive voltage should be.

As to the application... Well it is a circuit board that I have at work for repair. The customer sent it in with no description of problems or symptoms (typical situation). I really don't know what it is supposed to be used for. The silk screen just has some german words on it and a few numbers, which I presume is the part # and serial #.

 

yup. The tab is connected to a trace on the back side of the board through the mounting screw.

 

Couple more pics for your pleasure..

I think the name on it is German, not certain because I never studied any foreign languages.

 

gerate type = part number

Sorry can't do the umlaut.

Yes, I was dubious about my Moto offer earlier.

 

Gerätetype = Device type

 

the circuit board clearly mentions the left hand side terminal is cathode=K
and the right hand terminal is marked gate=G
so its a SCR all right
the middle terminal is the anode=A
try any 12 amps 600 volt SCR like the TYN612 from ST electronics
as a replacement in TO-220AB package

 

Thank you all for your input. I was finally able to contact my boss who is in Detroit about it, he is sometimes hard to get on the phone. He figured to go with an SCR like what Ali Baba had suggested.

I tell you sometimes this job can be frustrating in finding any information on the repairs I do. Then there are other times where there is an abundance of info, including schematics with reference numbers and such for testing the device being repaired. The joys are endless.
