Thanks for the suggestion Mattis. The UF4007 has a PIV of 1000V, I had a
suggestion that the PIV should be 200V. Not sure what rating I should be going
for here?

You’re right, I superimposed the number.
That certainly doesn’t help at all.

Hello Rob!
Given that before the transistor blew up there had clearly been another
failure somewhere else, I tried to find the original failure. There were no
obviously damaged parts, so I just
The data sheet lists H5892 through H5899 and H5900 through H5911.

Don,
Does the url suggest you may have searched for a H5901 rather than a H9501?

Thanks Antonio,
The location of the diode is arrowed on this picture:

You can also see the heatsink where the transistor used to be.

Hi Rob,
I'm only guessing here. I think the sequence may have been that the
main switching transistor failed first as it would be under more stress
than a diode in the base circuit. If the transistor shorted E-B-C then
the HT would become connected to the circuitry at it's base which would
be
