    – Zero crossing cycle control (fixed/variable cycles)
    – Zero crossing ON/OFF control
  • Improved maintainability with built-in fast-acting fuse and easy fuse replacement
  • Communication output model: RS485 (Modbus RTU)
  • Various control inputs and DI inputs
    – control input: analog (current, voltage), ON/OFF (voltage pulse, no voltage), communication (RS485), potentiometer
    – DI input: AUTO/MAN switching, RUN/STOP switching, Reset, output holding, SP designation (6 setting points can be customized)
  • Various alarm output
    – Overcurrent, overvoltage, fuse break, heat sink overheat, device fault, heater break alarm (partial heater break detection)
  • Improved convenience by separating operation part
  • Applicable load
    – Supercantal, platinum, molybdenum, carbon, halogen lamps, chrome, nickel, etc.
  • Feedback Control

  • Various Input

  • Output Accuracy

  • RS485 Communication(Modbus RTU)

  • Dedicated Software

Convenient Installation with Remote Display

Users can remotely monitor and control the units by installing the remote display unit in separate control panels.

  • 5.6-Inch color LCD Touch screen

Various Control Methods

Zero cross ON/OFF control, standard control, feedback control, and zero cross cycle control (fixed/variable cycle) are available for stable load control.

  • Constant Voltage Feedback Control Mode

    Maintains constant output voltage relative to the control input when there is a change in power supply or load resistance of loads with low temperature coefficient of electrical resistance (iron, chrome, nichrome, etc.)

  • Constant Current Feedback Control Mode

    Maintains constant output current relative to the control input when there is a change in power supply or load resistance of loads with high changes (6 to 12 times normal temperature) in temperature coefficient of electrical resistance (platinum, molybdenum, tungsten, etc.)

  • Constant Current Power Control Mode

    Maintains constant power supply relative to the control input when there is a change in power supply or load resistance. Ideal for large heaters with high changes in resistance due to overheating such as silicon carbide (SiC).

  • Zero Cross Cycle Control (Fixed Cycle)

    The load power repeats ON/OFF control during a fixed cycle (60 cycles) in relation to the control input signal.

    Zero Cross Cycle Control

    Example) Fixed cycle (60 cycles) control – control output at 40%

  • Zero Cross Cycle Control (Variable Cycle)

    Minimal number of cycles are used as AC sine wave repeats ON/OFF control in relation to the control input signal

    Zero Cross Cycle Control

    Example) Variable cycle control – control output at 40%

Various Functions Available

Various user friendly functions are available including soft start, slow up/slow down, input/output slope correction, multi-SP (setting point), full load auto recognition, and more.

  • SLOW UP / SLOW DOWN

    Used to protect the load from inrush current during RUN mode.

  • Output High Limit/Low Limit

    Used to protect the load by limiting output range.

  • Output Slope Setting

    Used to set the output ratio between 0.00 and 1.00 in relation to contol input.

  • Multi-Setting Point

    Set up to 6 setting points, and the output can be controlled in relation to 3 digital inputs.

  • Various Alarm Features

    Various alarms are available for safe operation, including overcurrent alarm, overvoltage alarm, fuse disconnection alarm, heatsink overheat alarm, heater disconnection alarm and more.

    Various Alarm Features
  • Simple Fuse Replacement

    Open type case allows users to easily replace fuse in the power controllers.
