Product Overview

The Three Phase AC Power Controller is a high-performance thyristorised module designed for precise, stepless control of high-power resistive and inductive loads. Available in current ratings up to 500 A, with higher-current configurations available on request, it is built for demanding industrial furnaces, ovens, kilns and process heating systems. Phase-sequence insensitive operation eliminates the need to check or correct phase rotation during wiring, while built-in single-phase fault detection helps identify phase-loss conditions during operation. Instantaneous overcurrent protection helps safeguard heaters, wiring and production uptime under continuous industrial duty.
