Firing modes 3. Chapter 3 FIRING MODES 3.1. GENERAL AND FIRING MODE SIGNALLING 7200A power thyristor units can be controlled with one of the following thyristor firing types: • a series of supply voltage cycles with zero crossing firing (‘Burst mode’, codes C16, C64, FC1) The firing type is shown on the unit’s front panel (table 3-1) in accordance with the product code.
Page 26
Firing modes Thyristor firing in ‘Burst mode’ can be described by the firing time (T ) , non-firing time (T ) and modulation time (T ) ; where T The power delivered to the load is defined by the duty ratio η = T Firing in ‘Burst mode’...

Alarms 4.3.1.1. Alarm actions with DLF option The detection of a fault (PLF or serious alarm) is signalled by : • the corresponding LED on the front pannel of the unit • the alrm relay contact Note : DLF alarms are not memorised. LED states Firing Typical...
Alarms 4.3.2.2. Partial load failure detection PLF monitoring involves comparing the load impedance with a reference impedance stored during setting (the load impedance is calculated from the rms values measured con- tinuously). This comparison allows the detection of the load impedance increase. PLF detection is only possible under the following conditions: •...
Alarms 4.3.2.5. Signalling of channel for load fault With the ‘DLF’ option the DLF LED flashes in particular ways to indicate the controlled channel on which load failure has occurred. Figure 4-3 shows the three types of flashing if a load failure is detected on one of the channels of the 7200A power thyristor unit.
Alarms 4.3.2.5.2. Functions of DLF alarm push button The push button on the front panel of the unit with the ‘DLF’ option is labelled ‘CHK / SET’ (Checking / Setting). Pushing this push button as shown on the diagrams below sets and diagnoses the status of the PLF detection circuit.

Maintenance 5.3. THYRISTOR PROTECTION FUSES The thyristors in the 7200A power thyristor unit are protected against excess currents by high-speed fuses (for all load types other than short wave infrared elements). For current ratings ≤ 100 A the fuses are external. Danger! High-speed fuses do not provide protection for the installation.
