Thyro-PX Power Controller

Active

Advanced SCR Power Controller Supports Load Currents Up to 5000 A and 1000 V

50 years of experience are infused in the Thyro-PX® series’ design and functionality. The SCR power controller is available in single-, dual-, and three-phase units, supports voltages up to 1000 V and 5000 A, and offers superior interface options. Integrate operating modes and parameters seamlessly with the 2.8-inch, LED Thyro-Touch display. And enable efficient system parameters, loading, and storage via an on-board SD-card. Thyro-PX power controller is ideally suited for your transformer and resistive loads for glass, metal, and ceramic manufacturing. It is optimal for heating elements in electric furnaces.
Thyro-PX® series supporting voltages of 1000 V and 5000 A. 

For any further current extension we are offering water cooled stacks as well. Please ask your sales representative for more information.
