Thyro-A+®
Precise, digital thyristor power controller supports currents up to 280 A and voltages up to 500 V.
The Thyro-A+ is the latest thyristor power controller series within Advanced Energy's proven Thyro family.
It features a power range with rated currents from 16 A to 280 A (more on request) and rated voltages from 230 V to 500 V. In addition to an integrated Modbus RTU interface, the Thyro-A+ offers easy fieldbus integration through the optional BasicBusModule and various Anybus® interfaces.
The Thyro-A+ is also available with an optional display.
In addition to intuitive operation of the thyristor power controllers, the optional display also enables long-term data recording of process parameters as well as status messages. With an SD card, data and parameter settings can be easily loaded and stored on the thyristor power controller. The EasyStart function supports easy handling during commissioning.
All useful customer information can be shown on the display, which can be mounted either directly on the device or on the control cabinet door.
