Revolutionary modularity and configurability to meet your needs …
- Easy ordering, configuration and maintenance through modular design
- If your requirements change EPower controller can be easily adapted to meet your needs
- Minimum spares holding – many options configurable through a common driver module e.g. firing mode, load, phases, control etc.
- Up to four power control modules provide single and multi-phase control
- Software configurable options to bring you flexibility
The options that you need …
A single driver module can support up to four power modules – and hence four independent control loops. Power modules are available in current ratings covering a range from 100A to 630A. The driver module itself supports options boards to give you additional flexibility in your solution:
- Communications – RS485 Modbus RTU, Profibus, DeviceNet®, Modbus TCP network protocols, CCLink*, EtherNet IP* and ProfiNet*
- Predictive Load Management (PLM) – A powerful feature to effectively manage your power requirements across multiple machines to save on your energy costs. Read more about PLM.
- Flexible I/O – The driver module supports standard I/O and up to three additional I/O boards with analogue inputs, analogue outputs, digital I/O and relay outputs
- LTC – The Load Tap changer option for single phase unit applications only, allows for managing multi-tap transformers, preventing both increased harmonics and the reduction of power factor
- Energy Counter – Available over communications and for display on user screens, customers can access up to 5 scalable counters, one per individual phases and a global energy usage counter
