Adavanced Single Phase Thyristor / Silicon Controlled Rectifier / Power Controller

Description

The Eurotherm EPack-1PH Compact SCR Power Controller delivers adaptable, single-phase power control in a compact footprint. It is quick and easy to install, integrate and commission, the EPack-1PH combines powerful, versatile features with a simplified design that helps end users reduce energy costs, maximize yield and improve productivity and quality.Happy to walk through the full report together if useful.

Key Features

  • Native communications — Modbus TCP as standard, with EtherNet/IP, PROFINET or EtherCAT options for easy, direct connection to a PLC.
  • True power control with current limitation — Delivers accurate, repeatable control to help maximise yield.
  • Wide voltage range — A large voltage capability from 100V to 500V, adjustable within the same variant, reduces the number of hardware variants integrators need to stock and specify.
  • Integrated measurements — Monitors current, voltage, power, impedance, energy usage and more for efficient, at-a-glance performance monitoring.
  • SCCR 100kA with fuse — Rated conditional short-circuit current of 100kA (coordination type 1) for robust protection.
  • Customisable options — A broad range of control, communication and configuration options provide better value for money and let you specify exactly what your application needs.

Benefits

Improved energy consumption helps reduce energy bills, while accurate and repeatable control helps maximise yield. Customisable options provide better value for money, and a reduced number of hardware variants makes the EPack-1PH easy for integraters to specify. Fast integration and commissioning, efficient monitoring through integrated measurements, and a simplified design that reduces stock and spares holding round out the benefits for OEMs, system integrators and end users alike.

Specifications

The EPack-1PH covers a nominal current range of 4 to 125 amps, with a nominal voltage from 100V to 500V (+10%/-15%) and accuracy of ±2% of full scale, operating at 47Hz to 63Hz. Short circuit protection is provided by external supplemental high speed fuses, and the unit supports firing modes including phase angle, intelligent half cycle, variable modulation burst firing, fixed modulation period and logic mode. Control modes include V² control, I² control, true power control, open loop with feedforward and trim modes, and current limitation by threshold or by transfer. The unit features a 1.4 in. diagonal TFT display for configuration, monitoring and diagnostics, dual port Ethernet with an integrated RJ45 switch, and standard functions including counter, logic and math blocks, 16-point linearisation, timer and totaliser, with energy counter, OEM security and graphical wiring available as options. Operating temperature range is 0 to 45°C at 1000m (32°F to 113°F at 3280 feet), derating to 0 to 40°C at 2000m (32°F to 104°F at 6562 feet), with a storage temperature of -25°C to 70°C (-13°F to 158°F).

Available Models

The EPack-1PH Compact SCR Power Controller is available across the following current ratings, each fitting one of four common mechanical footprints.

16 to 32A models (129.2 x 51 x 136.2mm, 0.8kg): EPack-1PH 16A EPack-1PH 25A EPack-1PH 32A

40 to 63A models (129.2 x 72 x 173.3mm, 0.95kg): EPack-1PH 40A EPack-1PH 50A EPack-1PH 63A

80 to 100A models (197.6 x 80 x 202.1mm, 1.8kg): EPack-1PH 80A EPack-1PH 100A

125A model (197.6 x 120 x 202.1mm, 2.5kg): EPack-1PH 125A

Each model is built to order using Eurotherm's EPack-1PH order code, which lets you specify auxiliary power supply, control option (V² with current limitation, I², V², or power control with current limit), transfer option, energy measurement, communications protocol (Modbus TCP, EtherNet/IP, PROFINET or EtherCAT), OEM security, warranty, fuse type, nominal load current and line voltage, load and heater type, firing mode, and analog and digital input configuration. Existing units can also be upgraded in the field with additional chargeable options using a software key order code.
