Potentiometer input, 25 or 35
amp, 3 phase din rail power controller
Features
- Allows a customer to dial in a
request from 0% to 100% power.
- Accepts a standard potentiometer
input and provides a high speed, time proportional AC
output (TPO). That is a zero-crossing, "no electronic noise", power
control signal that is ideal for resistive heaters, heat sealing bars,
injection molding nozzle zones, simple cookers, etc.
- Output cycle time ("ON" time +
"OFF" time) = approximately 0.5 second at 50%. Output resolution is one half of
one sinewave (8.3 msec for 60 hz applications).
Note: Rapid pulsing of the heaters
provides the most precise temperature control, PLUS it dramatically increases
the life of the heaters due to a reduction in the thermal stress of expansion
and contraction.
- A standard 0-5k potentiometer
can be mounted anywhere on the machine.
- Any standard 24 volt DC power
supply can be used, such as your existing PLC power supply.
- A 680 ohm, 5%, 1/2 watt resistor
is installed in series.
- A 6.8k ohm, resistor is
installed in parallel.
- A green LED shows input status
on the power controller
- Zero crossing activation -- low
EMI, low noise to nearby electronics
- Available for the DMA3-6V75T,
three phase solid state contactor
- UL, CSA, CE

Installation |
The
DMA3 can be installed on a din rail or directly on a metal panel. The heat sink
must be installed so the air flows up and through the fins. |

Example of
control |
0% =
heater or load is "off" 50% = heater "on" 250 mseconds, "off" 250 msec, "on"
250 msec... 75% = "on" 375 msec, "off" 125msec, "on" 375 msec.... 85% =
"on" 425 msec, "off" 75msec, "on" 425 msec.... 100% = heater "on"
Since the contactor is switching at
the zero crossing mark of a sinewave, there is no electrical noise that might
interfere with nearby electronics. Also, since the calculated ON or OFF time
period is measured in half sine waves, the contactor will automatically adjust
the total cycle time in order to maintain the best ratio of ON/OFF to match
your control input. |

Internal
MOVs |
The
"5V" models have three internal MOVs installed providing a fourth layer of
surge survivial. Using the MOVs limits the product to applications from 48 -
575 volts. |
Terminology |
The
word "leg" refers to a switched AC power line. A three phase application may
use 3 switched lines or 2 switched lines. |
