power controller

Definition

The appropriate product category
A device for continuously adjusting power based on an analog signal (e.g., 4 to 20 mA) or manual setting. Control methods include phase angle control and zero-cross control. A power controller is sometimes called a thyristor unit or thyristor (SCR) due to the element that is used. Power controllers are used for continuous heating control of heaters, adjusting illumination, AC control of rectifiers, etc.
The appropriate product category
A device that performs stepless control of an AC voltage and current using a phase angle control system, enabling high-precision temperature control.
