The THERMOSAFE and FARATHERM Induction Heaters use induction and therefore have no heating elements. The maximum temperature they reach is self-limiting, and in the majority of applications additional control is not required. If temperature control is necessary we offer a range of options including the BF400 Power Controller and the ProxATEX Digital Temperature Controller.
Low cost solution for most installations
Uniquely designed for use with the THERMOSAFE and FARATHERM Induction Heaters. Open loop control that is simple to install and use, ideal for most applications where a drum needs to be maintained at an operational temperature for a period of time.
Burst firing controller enabling adjustment of heater output (0-100%). Selecting 50% will ensure the heater is on for 50% of the time (eg. on for 30 seconds and off for 30 seconds), therefore reducing the maximum drum temperature. Near zero-crossing switching minimizes supply disturbance. Integrated 25A mcb for circuit protection.
Whilst the BF400 must be situated in a safe area, (usually in the area/room where fuses and switchgear are located) the THERMOSAFE and FARATHERM heaters can still be operated in the hazardous zone. The standard supply cable length is 5m, but a longer cable can be fitted on request if the safe area is further away.
