I HATE DIODES !!!!!
Currently trying to identify/sort/organize all my salvaged beefy diodes. Most were pulled from CRT TV's or monitors.... their datasheet says they are "damping" diodes, for CRT Horizontal deflection.
The datasheet will tell you all sorts of things relevant to their intended use case, logical, fair enough, with all sorts of repetitive or non repetitive voltage or current stimuli, BUT they will never tell you the most basics of specs I wanna know for a freaking diode : what is the maximum DC voltage and current they can sustain !!!
I don't care if their diode can do 1,500Volts repetitive at 32.5kHz or 115,567kHz on a square wave with 35.78% duty cycle...... just tell me what freaking DC voltage and current it can handle FFS !!!
So basically I have lots of cool beefy diodes but I can't contemplate reusing them because I have no idea what current and voltage they can actually handle, hence I might as well throw them away !!

What package types?
Maybe the name is an omen.
Don't know what "omen" means sorry
Package is irrelevant, the problem is the datasheet... but here it is anyway. I don't know how it's called, datasheet doesn't say. It's like a TO220 (on the pic as well, for size comparison), but much bigger.
FMQ-G2FS is 1500V/10A and FMQ-G5FMS is the same.
Whole set is over 1000V so that's pretty safe.
Number 5 seems to be among beefier ones so maybe 5A is safe.
Yes I know that of course, I already have that datasheet, hence my original post bitching about it.
Pretty nasty part you've selected.
I'd say that

Not much sense.
Lower voltage of D2 file is clearly a fast recovery time point.
So Robert's rules are also clearly all there will be.
BTW,
Back in the day off duty firemen did larger safe migrations.
At the end they all showed their income-tax cards and cost was equal net amount to all.
And so, one more for the slide rule.
Proto is made but can't find it.
Making one sided without a rivet.
- Glue the print to something thick enough.
- Cut all circles.
- Glue outermost ring to something stiff enough.
- Insert other rings, without the glue.
- Done.
