6.0kW Soft-starter for Short-wave Infra-red Heaters
The Infresco-S 6.0kW Soft-starter for Short-wave Infra-red Heaters is designed to be installed in the supply cable to provide a soft start to a short-wave infrared heater if nuisance tripping is a problem.
The ‘S’ model soft-starts the load either when power is applied to the unit or by the use of a remote switch. The microcontroller-based unit incorporates zero-voltage switching and a soft-start function to eliminate the lamps’ initial high inrush current, potentially increasing lamp life by as much as 30%.
Please note that this unit has no pre-installed manual switch. Installation of the unit is simple, and once installed is maintenance-free. The soft start will be initialised each time power is supplied to the unit.
Additionally, a remote switch can be added using terminals (INPUT COM) on the PCB. In normal mode, the terminals are fitted with a link; this will need to be removed, and switch wires fitted. If these terminals are used, an additional gland will be required to maintain the unit’s IP rating (Additional Gland Supplied).
Features and Benefits:
- Extends Lamp Life
- Soft-start/zero-voltage switch-off
- Low-cost
- Easy to install
