The DIN-A-MITE® D silicon controlled rectifier (SCR) power
controller provides an inexpensive, versatile product for controlling
heat in an efficient package. This SCR controller is designed and
manufactured with the quality features expected from Watlow. The back
panel mounting matches the footprint of the industry standard mercury
displacement relay. There is no need to worry about mercury; the
DIN-A-MITE controller is mercury free.
The DIN-A-MITE Style D is capable of zero-cross switching up to 100
amperes single-phase, at 600VAC at 86°F (30°C), depending on the model
selected. Two or three controllers used together can control
three-phase. It is totally touch-safe and includes standard back panel
mounting, on-board semiconductor fuses (accessible from the front) and a
current transformer option for external load current monitoring. An
optional “shorted SCR detector” feature is available on some models.
This model is UL®508 listed and C-UL®and CE certified. These agency
approvals are ideal for those panel builders that require agency
approvals on their panels and cabinets.
Variable time base, 4-20mA process control, or VAC/VDC input
contactor options are available. All configurations are model number
dependent and factory selectable. This power controller also includes
200KA short circuit current rating (SCCR) tested up to 480VAC to prevent
arch flash with required fusing.
