Avatar Instruments TSS SCR Power Controllers
We are a distributor for Avatar Instruments
TSS Series 2 Wire Temperature Control
FEATURES
The Avatar TSS series controls are a 2 wire, solid state temperature control
for use with low mass self-sensing heaters, such as Alumel, Balco, Nickel or
Tungsten elements. The model TSS provides instantaneous response to temperature
setting or load changes with no thermal lag or overshoot possible. Fail safe
protection is intrinsic to the 2 wire self-sensing control. Heater life is
increased due to Avatar's superior firing resolution. Speed of response is 0.01
seconds.
The model TSS uses the heating element itself as an RTD (resistance temperature
detector). There is no need for other temperature sensors, no problems with
probe placement, and no confusing temperature control tuning for the operator to
perform. The model TSS will keep the element temperature at a constant
resistance/temperature no matter what the air flow or load. If air flow is cut
off, power will be cut back or even turned off within .01 seconds. The element
will not burn out. Another advantage is that any change to setpoint, air flow or
any load condition will cause the model TSS to make power changes within the
same .01 seconds. Changes from a low or no flow condition to full operation
setpoint will happen faster due to the heater element being in an “idle” or
preheat condition before air flow is applied.
The model TSS-A-11F replaces ARi Stan-Trol (330014D) & Wayneco/Watlow 2 Wire
controllers with a standard 1/4 DIN package. TSS-A features Power On, Heater On
and Heater Short/Blown Fuse Indication.
The model TSS-B is designed to work with Osram Sylvania 2.2 & 4.5 Ohm 120 VAC
Balco In Line Heaters. Replaces Athena Model 68 Series controls. The TSS-B will
instantly limit power to In Line heater when air flow is
reduced, blocked, disconnected or turned off. 240 VAC available.
The model TSS-A is designed to work with Alumel heaters that can reach
temperatures hundreds of degrees higher than Balco heaters.
The model TSS can also be used in hot wire packaging applications. This is ideal
when an open wire sealing head needs to be controlled. The best temperature for
the process can be selected. When the sealing head is removed from the materials
the heater is kept at the same output temperature. A pre-heat condition. When
the load is applied by placing the heater wire on the next item to be sealed,
the TSS instantly responds by providing the correct amount of power to the
heater.
