THYRISTOR POWER REGULATOR

Product Features
Down-opened Panel is easy for fuse replacement.
Automatic detection with multi-LED display for power out-of-phase, SCR over-heat, and fuse burn-down
with one set of alarm dry contact output.
Independent adjustment of Max and BIAS, easy adjustment for the VR of Max & SFS on the front panel.
The auxiliary powers (AC1 & AC2) are independently controlled for all models.
Build-in buffering output adjustment (SFS VR) with adjustable range 1~22 seconds. (Only for the phase control)
In case of 0.5Hz sudden power losses, system output can be switched off immediately.
Once the power is restored, the system will buffer the output to prevent the voltage surge for fuse burn-down.
One main power design for 200~480VAC and automatic power frequency detection for 50~60Hz.
In cases of SCR over-heat or fuse burn-down, the system output is stopped immediately. Once the malfunction
is eliminated and power is restored, the system will buffer the output to prevent the fuse burn-down.
Selectable signal 4~20mA, 1~5VDC, 2~10VDC, 0~20mA, 0~5VDC, 0~10VDC and dry contact points.
Triggering circuit and the main board are designed separately to avoid the main board damage
when main circuit malfunction.
Safety top & bottom shielding covers are easy for wiring, using European detachable control signal connector
for easy replacement without re-wiring installation.

Load Test
Phase angle control : continuous phase angle control, steady output, current gauge reading remains steady.
But, every half wave will prod uce harmonic wave.
(Applicable loading): fixed resistance loading, variable resistance loading, inductive loading, IR light bulb.
Zero cro ssing control : distributed zero crossing control, minimum resolution 1Hz, no harmonic wave,
and current gauge reading oscillates. (Applicable loading): fixed resistance loading.

LED lamp indication &

trouble shooting

Buffer rising time adjustment.

SFS (Clockwise adjustment will increase the time 1~22 seconds) No applicable for zero crossing type.
Max Maximum output voltage adjustment.

(Adjusting range 0~100%, counter-clockwise adjustment will decrease the output. Set to zero will
have no output.

Power: Auxiliary power on.

Off reason (1): Auxiliary power sources have no output --> make sure Ac1 & Ac2 have power output.
Off reason (2): Control board may malfunction --> Please replace by new control board or call your supplier.
Input : Control input signal is in.
Off reason (1): Control signal is not in
--> Pls check the temperature gauge to see if there is input, check the connection and wiring.
Off reason (2): Wrong connection on the electrodes of the control board
--> Pls check the electrodes of the temperature Gauge.
Off reason (3): Set to zero on the Max VR of the control board or outside VR
--> Pls check two Vrs to see if any one of them is set to zero.
Off reason (4): Control board malfunction --> Pls replace by new control board or call your supplier.

Selection of the input signal

P1

Output : Power regulator is in output. (Light or dark based on the output; but flash if for zero crossing control)
Off reason (1): If the abnormal light Fuse/Source Err is ON. (Fuse burn down or main power has no output.
Off reason (2): If the temperature light TH Err is on, the power regulator is over-heat.
Off reason (3): If the input light is off. (No input signal)
Off reason (4): If the input light is on. (Control board malfunction)
TH Err: ON (1) Power regulator is over heating --> cooling fan is not operating, check the power / fan damage, or
if the fan is stuck by any object and get rid off it if necessary.
ON (2) Bad ventilation or the ambient temperature is too high --> pls improve the ventilation.
OFF: Its normal, the power regulator is not over-heating.
Fuse/Source Err: ON (1) Main power source have no output or out-of-phase
--> Check the power output and all the abnormal conditions.
ON (2) High-speed fuse burn down --> Pls replace the same spec. Fuse and check the shortage
and the ground of the loading before restoring the power.
OFF: Its normal.
