Power and Control Panel:
NEMA12Enclosure shall includethefollowing:
• Magnetic Breaker or DisconnectSwitch,door interlocked;
• Buss Bars or Splitter Block;
•Fuses;
• Control Transformer fused primary;
•On-Offbreakerfor 120V control circuit;
•DualDigitalDisplayElectronicController,1/4”DINsizeforease ofoperation;
• SCR Power Controller to modulate total heating capacityfrom0 to100%, according to steam flow variations;
•Semiconductor fuses toprotectthe SCRs;
•Thermocouple in outlet todetectleaving steamtemperature. A minimumflowisrequired;
• Two levels ofhigh steam temperature protection, one with automatic reset and the second one with manual reset in separate protectioncircuitsfor maximumsecurity;
• Audible and visual alarm circuit with associated display lights, silencing button and horn.
•SPDTdrycontactsforremote alarm supervision;
•OPTIONAL: Two SCR Power Controllers, each modulating half the total capacity, with slightly different time bases in order to reduce pulsations in the electrical distribution.
