FC11AL UNIVERSAL PHASE ANGLE TRIGGER MODULE X10222 INTRODUCTION This single phase or phase to phase firing module uses variable phase-angle control with adjustable signal matching and adjustable soft-start. The power transformer is remote for increased reliability and wide operational voltage capacity. The unique *MONO-LINK firing system is ideal for use with inductive loads and requires minimal wiring to the power devices. The module is fully enclosed for safety and eligibility in industrial environments. APPLICATIONS Applicable to most AC resistive or inductive loads via a triac or thyristor, on single phase to neutral or phase to phase supplies, within voltage limits. Also suitable for half-wave vibrator control. FEATURES Fires triacs or thyristors up to 440V (50/60 Hz) supplies. MONO-LINK - Gate to Gate firing. High Isolation opto-coupled output. Status LED giving output level indication. Adjustable Soft Start Function. INSTALLATION DIMENSIONS AND CONNECTIONS *MONO-LINK is a trademark of United Automation Ltd. U.K. Patent No. 2197997POWER CONNECTIONS SPECIFICATION Signal Span Minimum 0 to 2V dc AC input supply 12 to 18V ac 65mA Signal Span Maximum 0 to 25V dc Auxiliary output 5V dc Signal zero offset 0 to 30% of span Line Frequency 50/60 Hz dV/dt rating 100V/ s Operating temperature range 0 to +65C Max. Gate/Line voltage 440V ac Adjustable soft start 0-20 seconds Trigger isolation voltage 4000Vrms Mono-link fuse F100mA (HRC) Trigger output rating 0.8A Manual potentiometer 2K, 5K or 10K Storage temperature range -20 to +85C Power connections 6.3mm Amp tags FUSING It is recommended to use semiconductor (fast acting) type fuses or circuit breakers (semiconductor- MCB) for unit protection and appropriate protection for unit supply (HRC F1A). On initial switch on some loads need an increased Factor of Safety (F of S) for unit and/or device protection. See SRA Data sheet for further information. CE MARKING This product family carries a CE marking. These phase angle controllers need a suitable remote filter. For information see recommendation section and contact our sales desk.
