Thyristor Power Controller 50-2200A, 220-1200V, 4-2200KW (Temperature Controller)

Thyristor Power Controller

TPS (Click here to open/Download the one page PDF catalog )

The Thyristor Power Controller is a heavy duty, fully digital, one, two or three phase power control unit for controlling the voltage applied to loads such as heating elements, thus, allowing temperature control while eliminating contactor switching and over/under heating.

The first in a series of Digital Temperature Controllers incorporating protection functions.

Built in switching methods are:

1. Phase Control
2. Zero Crossing
3. Phase Control Power
4. PID input
5. Local potentiometer control
6. Optional RS-485 communication

Range: 50-2200A, 220-1200V, 4-2200KW.

Notes:

1. The kW ratings are for resistive loads. For other than resistive load customer must keep FLA

2. The kW ratings are for a 3 phase symmetrical loads. Should a 1 phase load connected to the TPS, only 1/3 of rated kW can be connected.

3. Should a non-symmetric load connected to the TPS, customer must keep FLA
