Thyristor Power Controllers & Solid State Relays

The CD Automation range of Single & 3 Phase SCR Power Controllers, offers industrial users a reliable, efficient solution for precise thermal process management. By delivering fast, infinitely variable thyristor-based power control, it ensures stable temperature regulation, improved product quality, extended heater lifespan, and reduced maintenance compared to mechanical alternatives.

One of its standout advantages is advanced power optimisation. By synchronising multi‑zone loads, the controller prevents energy overshoot, smooths power demand, and helps avoid costly utility penalties. Users benefit from reduced energy costs, improved power factor, minimal voltage flicker, and lower harmonic distortion—supporting both operational efficiency and grid stability.

Its compact, multi‑channel design (up to 24 zones) significantly reduces cabinet space, wiring complexity, and installation time, while built‑in diagnostics—covering heater integrity, SCR health, and fuse status—streamline troubleshooting and reduce downtime.

Seamless integration is ensured through compatibility with leading fieldbus protocols, including Modbus, Profinet, and Ethernet/IP. Free PLC libraries and tools enable rapid commissioning, while USB and wireless app connectivity simplify configuration and monitoring.

In short, CD Automation’s SCR Power Controller delivers precise temperature control, energy efficiency, simplified engineering, advanced diagnostics, and effortless connectivity, empowering manufacturers to optimise performance and lower operating costs.
