The Thyro-PX® Modular Solution, a fully configurable, distributed architecture enables operators to build custom power control with liquid-cooled high-power stacks and external control units to meet their precise needs.
The components are designed to meet the requirements of glass manufacturing, arc furnaces, rectifiers, and other high-current heating elements. Configuration options include separating control and power functions to minimize EMC issues.
Thyro-PX’s silicon-controlled rectifier (SCR) technology optimally controls temperature and power. It offers precise phase angle control and improved efficiency, while reducing costs and CO2 emissions compared to standard thyristors.
“Thyro-PX Modular Solution is built on proven SCR technology and offers unparalleled flexibility in high current applications to simplify switching from gas-fired systems to cleaner electrically generated heat,” said Dhaval Dhayatkar, Advanced Energy’s vice president, Critical Sensing and Control Products, System Power.
