Introduction

A thyristor unit is semiconductor device which acts as
a switch formed by two thyristors in antiparallel.
To switch on the alternating current the input signal
will be on and the thyristor will switch off at first Zero
Crossing voltage with no input signal.
The benefits of thyristor units compared with
elettromechanical contactors are numerouses: no
moving parts, no maintenance and capacity to switch
very fast. Thyristors are the only solution to control
transformers and special loads that change resistance
with temperature and with age.

1.1 Overview

Heater bakeout
• Protects heater upon start up.
• Eliminates labor and time associated with checking for wet heaters.
Current transformer and user interface
• Saves installation time and eases setup and commissioning.
• Delivers a user-friendly, intuitive interface.
Industry-leading design and serviceability
• Offers a robust SCR design to meet a rugged industrial environment's high quality and reliability needs.
• Provides quick and easy access to maintain and service fuses and individual legs in minimal time.
• Enables fast troubleshooting by providing helpful thermal system diagnostics.
Comprehensive power controller range
• Provides wide range of options from simple single phase to complex three-phase loads to 600V.
100kA short circuit current rating (SCCR) (Not reviewed by UL
• Enables greater protection in the event of a short circuit.
® 508 Listed - PRELIMINARY, to be tested
c-UL
• Shortens project schedules, agency testing and expenses.
Control modes: contactor, voltage, current or power
• Satisfies a wide range of demanding thermal applications.
Load firing modes: zero-cross, burst fire, phase angle, soft start, half-cycle, single-cycle, delayed trig gering
• Handles a wide range of load types including nichrome, medium and long waveform infrared lamps, moly,
transformers, silicon carbide, UV lamps and tungsten.
• Protects and extends the life of connected loads.
Wide range of communication protocols
• Enable factory and process automation with connectivity to process and equipment data via Modbus® RTU.
Modbus® TCP, Profibus, Profinet (available with external master communication module).
Open heater and shorted SCR indication
• Minimizes production downtime with easy to understand, intelligent, troubleshooting diagnostics.
Integrated USB and user interface for configuration
• Easily and safely program configuration settings as the user interface can be powered through USB connec tion.
• Eliminates need to work in a high voltage hazard environment. High voltage to the power controller and
system panel can be shut off and locked out for safety while configuring controller.
