AVR
X10208
INTRODUCTION
This fully variable, powerful phase angle regulator is a manually controlled, robust, compact,
enclosed unit for direct or transformer coupled, single-phase loads. The high current triac, fuse
terminals and all main parts are enclosed and mounted on an integral heatsink to ensure long life
with reliable high ambient temperature operation. The large triac enables the unit to handle high
in-rush currents with ample safety margin on industrial installations.
APPLICATIONS
Suitable for conventional resistive heating elements, including ovens, moulders, dryers and some inductive
loads e.g. transformers and motors.
FEATURES
•
Integral high speed fuse.
•
Built in heatsink.
•
High in-rush capability.

FUSING:
It is recommended to use semiconductor (fast acting) type fuses or circuit breakers (Semiconductor
- MCB) for unit protection. (See SRA Datasheet for further information).
CE MARKING
This product family carries a “CE marking”. These phase angle type controllers require a suitable remote
filter. For information see recommendation section and contact our sales desk. (See Declaration
of Conformity).
