Reotron phase-angle controllers regulate current/power/load

The largest controller in the new Reotron range is rated current at 3 x 300A for three-phase supplies; the smallest is rated at 6A for single-phase supplies. Options include a choice of fieldbus interfaces, including Interbus-S, Profibus-DP and CAN-Bus.

Operating parameters can be set up manually over the fieldbus interface or locally through a user-friendly touch-panel and digital display that is incorporated in the unit's front panel. It is also possible to connect potentiometers for set-point setting as an alternative means of adjustment.

These Reotron controllers can operate in either burst-fire or phase-angle mode, depending on the application requirements. They are designed for panel-mounting and can be used in many different processes including those involving drying, heating and sterilising, for example.
