1 Introduction 1.3 Description Application A thyristor power unit can be used wherevere sizeable resistive or inductive loads are switched frequently – for instance, in industrial furnaces and plastics processing. Operating The thyristor power units can operate under phase-angle control with adjust- modes able current limiting or in burst-firing mode, depending on the setting of the in- ternal switch.

2 Operating modes 2.1 Phase-angle control with soft start and current limiting In this mode of operation, the power is regulated by altering the phase angle. This method is suitable for transformer and resistive loads. During the switch- on period the phase-angle is gradually advanced by the controller to provide a soft start.
2 Operating modes 2.2 Burst-firing operation, for resistive loads In this mode of operation, the power is regulated by changing the number of full-wave cycles of the supply line voltage which are switched on during each control period. This method is used for purely resistive loads which have a cold resistance that is roughly the same as the hot resistance.
2 Operating modes 2.3 Burst-firing operation for transformer loads and loads with a high positive temperature coefficient TC (mixed operation) It is not possible to change over to phase-angle control in this mode of operation. Soft start For the first switch-on of the thyristor power unit, or after being switched off by inhibiting the firing-pulses, after a supply line interruption, or if the setpoint was switched off for more than 8seconds, there will always be a short phase- angle controlled start (area a in the diagram).

2 Operating modes For transformer loads, the thyristor power unit operates in burst-firing mode with a cut-back (retarded) phase-angle for the first half-wave. The factory set- ting is an angle α = 90°. This value can be altered on the front panel over a range α...
3 Installation 3.1 Important installation notes Safety - The choice of cable, installation and electrical connection of the instrument regulations must meet the requirements of VDE 0100 “Regulations for the Installation of Power Circuits with nominal voltages below 1000 V AC” or the corresponding local regulations.
3 Installation Switch-on The supply voltages for the load and control circuitry must be switched on sequence at the same time. In no circumstances should the supply voltage for the control electronics be switched on before the voltage for the load! This is especially important for operating transformer loads and re- sitive loads with a large variation between hot and cold resistance! Control inputs...
3 Installation above the unit. The thyristor power unit has enclosure protection IP00, and so it must be mounted in such a way that bodily contact is prevented (built-in unit). The heatsink can become very hot in operation! Incorrect use - The unit is not suitable for installation in areas with an explosion hazard (Ex areas).
3 Installation 3.5 DIN rail mounting h Fix the DIN rail h Snap the thyristor power unit and its mounting plate onto a standard rail (to DIN EN 50 022) and lock it in place with the lever. This type of mounting is only possible for thyristor power units up to 50A rated current.

5 Commissioning 5.1 Adjust control input (full wave) The trimmer (7) “full wave” on the front panel can be used to adjust the thyris- tor power unit so that the 100% (full wave) firing point is reached at the maxi- mum output signal of the preceding controller.
5 Commissioning 5.2 Setting the base load A base load can be set, in addition to the analog current input and the potenti- ometer input. Since these input signals are added together, the input signal gain must be corrected by adjusting the “full wave” trimmer (7). For instance, if a heating system is to be operated with a 33% base load, with the other 66% of the output being regulated by the controller, then the proce- dure is as follows:...
5 Commissioning 5.3 Setting the current limit Internal current Current limiting is only possible in the phase-angle mode of control. limiting h The trimmer (5) “current limit” on the front panel can be used to limit the effective (rms) value of the load current over a range from 10 — 100% of the rated current for the thyristor control unit (I ThyN 1.5 turns clockwise correspond to increasing the threshold by about 10%...
5 Commissioning 5.3.1 Alteration of the current limit Imax, as a function of the voltage on Terminal 9 With an internal limit of, for example, I = 0.8 x I , the external range of variation is only 0 to 8V. 5.4 Setting the phase angle for the first half-wave In the mode “burst-firing with phase-angle controlled start”...
5 Commissioning 5.5 Load and part-load failure monitoring This function is only available with the extra code TR or TO. If there is a change in the load resistance during operation, this is detected and indicated by the part-load failure monitoring. The signal output is available either as a floating contact (extra code TR) or an optocoupler (extra code TO).
5 Commissioning Alternative setting: Simulate a load failure, and then adjust the “load fail” trimmer so that the yel- low “load fail” LED just lights up. 5.5.2 Setting for master-slave and free-running economy circuit When using master-slave and free-running economy circuits, the settings must be made in both thyristor power units.
6 Settings 6.1 Opening the housing Adjustments must only be made while the unit is disconnected from the supply power! It is easier if these adjustments are carried out before the unit is installed. h Use a screwdriver to lever the spring fixing lug outwards. On the 150 A and 250 A versions: press both spring lugs inwards.
6 Settings 6.2 Adjustment switches S1 — 21 and pin headers X503 / X504 The switches S1 to 21 can be found on the back of the printed circuit board. It is easier to access switches S15, S16 and S21 if the plug-in screw terminals are first pulled off downwards.
6 Settings 6.4 Control inputs The internal switches S1, S2, S16, S19, S20 can be used to adapt the thyris- tor power unit to suit the available control signal (controller output signal). There are separate voltage and current control inputs. The current inputs (+,-) are designed for a differential current signal, i.e.
6 Settings Logic control The thyristor power unit can also be operated by the following logical signals inputs (e.g. two-state/single-setpoint controller outputs): (switching pulse bursts on or off): - current signal 0/20mA (Terminals 1, 2) - voltage signal 0/10V (Terminals 3, 4) - floating contact (Terminals 4, 5) 6.4.1 Combinations of external potentiometer and electronic controller Controller with...
6 Settings Controller with This only uses the voltage input of the thyristor power unit. A 5 kΩ potention- voltage output meter is required on Terminals 3 and 5 for manual operation. Switch Automatic operation position 1 Manual operation position 2 6.5 Subsidiary control loops Subsidiary control loops are primarily used to eliminate or compensate exter- nal disturbances, such as supply-line fluctuations and changes in resistance...
6 Settings - temperature-dependent TC - free-running economy circuit - negative TC 6.6 Actual (power) output The factory setting is that the actual (power) signal output corresponds to the signal at the output of the power unit, and is therefore proportional to the power in the load (R = constant).
6 Settings 6.7 Load current adaptation (only with extra code TR/T0) With P or I control, switch S15 must be in position 0 if the operating current is less than half the rated current. This is to ensure proper measurement of the load current for the subsidiary control loop, the current limiting, and the over- current / low current detection.
6 Settings It is not possible to change over to phase-angle control if S12 and S13 are closed. v Section 2.3 “Burst-firing operation for transformer loads and loads with a high positive temperature coefficient TC (mixed operation)” 6.9 Economy circuit Two single-phase units can be used at any time to implement an “economy circuit”...
6 Settings 6.9.1 Free-running economy circuit (asynchronous switching) for resistive loads A free-running economy circuit has the advantage that the average loading of the supply network is reduced. Both power units operate independently and regulate the required 3-phase power quite precisely. Even a possible part-load failure will not necessarily have an effect on the temperature stability of the control loop.
6 Settings 6.10 Firing-pulse inhibit Inhibiting the firing pulses is a simple way of switching high powers. In phase- angle control, the thyristor power unit commences with a soft start after firing- pulse inhibit has been used. In burst-firing operation with a transformer load, the power unit first starts up in phase-angle control and then switches over to burst-firing.
