Tyristormodul = Thyristor Module, and a thyristor is another name for an SCR. Since the SCR is shown off to the right, outside the module and connected to pins 1-2, I suspect that the module is the driver for an SCR, rather than the switch itself. Since it appears that the gate input switches an oscillator on-off, it looks like that oscillator generates a high voltage via the transformer, so I'd guess that it can drive a very high voltage gate on the SCR. Hard to tell how to use it without some information on the drive output or what type of SCR it's intended for.
