INFINITE CONTROLS

Mechanical Bi-Metal operation
Knob setting 0 to 100% Watts
Double Pole, Single Throw (DPST) Snap-Action
Positive Break
120 or 240 V, 1800 and 3600 Watts

 Features

  • Simplicity. No cams or levers to adjust. No motor to burn out.
  • Bi-metal acts at settings less than HI to limit electrical input and depress temperature.
  • Provides control for loads up to 15 amperes.
  • Designed for operation in an ambient up to 180�F.
  • Automatic compensation for line voltage fluctuations up to �15%

 

Gives infinite control for noninductive loads up to 15 amperes on 120 or 240 volts. Can be turned either to left or right to select proper heat from 0 to 100% wattage with infinite control over first 50% of total wattage.

Energized continuously in HI position, at other settings it delivers selected input level under control of a simple bi-metal timer.

Applications
  • Annealing
  • Melting Pots
  • Industrial cooking
  • Dies
  • Platens
  • Comfort heating
  • Electric furnaces

Voltage Control - Solid State Variable

Model A18TP

Solid State power controls provide variable control of single-phase constant resistance heating loads.

These small, ultra-light controls replace expensive, bulky variable transformers, saturable core reactors, and electromechanical contactors

Full-size, easy-turn potentiometers control the output voltage via power semiconductors, replacing failure-prone brushes or moving contacts to heating element temperature in virtually any* process heating application up to 25 amps (6000 watts @ 240VAC).

 

Applications
  • Replace variable transformers
  • Nozzle heaters
  • Platen heating
  • Band heaters
  • Extrusion and Molding machines
  • Food preparation
  • Environmental chambers
  • Heat treating ovens

 

Specifications

  • Light ON/OFF switch
  • 6ft. power cord with plug
  • NEMA standard 120 or 240VAC receptacle (please specify)
  • 15amp load capacity at 120 or 240 VAC
  • Quick-change " 2-millisecond" fuse protection
  • Portable (bench top) or chassis mounted small size
