Page 4: Understanding Scr Power Controls
Understanding SCR Power Controls When selecting SCR Power Controls, it is important to have a basic understanding of how SCRs work. This will help you select the right SCR for your application. • How SCR Power Controls Work A silicon controlled rectifier (SCR) is a solid state switching device which can provide fast, infinitely variable proportional control of electric power. -
Page 5: Power Control Selection Guide
POWER CONTROL SELECTION GUIDE The SCR power control can deliver electrical power to heaters in several ways: phase angle fired, zero voltage switched and on/off control. Phase angle fired controls proportionally turn on a percentage of each power line half cycle. This gives smooth, infinitely variable application of power to the heaters. -

Page 21: Apc-Tf Series Maintenance - Fuses
APC-TF Series MAINTENANCE - Fuses DANGER! The controller must be maintained by personnel qualified and trained to work with low voltage electrical equipment in an industrial environment. The user’s installation must be protected upstream (non high-speed fuses, thermal or electromagnetic circuit breaker, suitable fuse-isolator) and must comply with current standards. -
Page 22: Thyristor Protection
For the use of high-speed fuses in short-wave infrared applications, Please contact Controls. To protect the thyristors in the APC-TF series, 3 fuses and bus-bar must be used. Details of these are given in the following table. Nominal current Dimensions... - Page 23 DANGER! If failure happens of the SCR, must be change to compatible maker’s.

Page 24: Apc-Tf Series Servicing
APC-TF Series SERVICING APC-TF Series controllers must be mounted with the heatsink positioned vertically, with no obstructions above or below which could inhibit or impede airflow. Attention! If several units are mounted in the same cabinet, they should be arranged in such a way that air expelled from one cannot be drawn into the unit located above it.
