Kemo M204 Power Regulator Component
CONNECTION ExAMPLE
M204 | Power Control 230 V, max. 16 A for heaters
Regulates ohmic loads like heatings, etc. without additional need for
interference suppression with pulses in zero crossing. Regulation takes place
by switching on and off in pulses. It is, therefore, only suitable for
heatings (heating plates, welding wires, thermal welding machines, ovens,
etc.). Not suitable for motors and lamps (they would sputter and blink,
respectively).
CONTROL CURVE ExAMPLES
Intended use:
For the regulation of heatings for 220 – 240 V/AC
Schaltungsbeschreibung
Depending on the position of the potentiometer, the module switches the
heating on and off, always in a phase zero crossing, respectively. The
switching frequency amounts to approx. 0.8 Hz. The length of the switch-on
phases depends on the position of the control potentiometer. Controller
setting to the left: short switch-on phases and low heating power. Controller
is set more to the right: longer switch-on phases and higher heating power.
Assembly instructions:
The module may heat during operation depending on the load. Therefore,it has
to be mounted in a well ventilated place. If the metal case of the module
heats up to more than 60°C, it has to be either screwed on an additional heat
sink or has to be blown by a small ventilator. During a well ventilated normal
operation up to 1000 W, however, this should not be necessary.
The module may only be installed by an expert (e.g. electrician) considering the safety regulations of the VDE. In this connection it is absolutely important to make sure that the fingers cannot touch live contacts. The potentiometer is fully insulated at the operating axis and fastening thread. The installation has to be made in such a manner that only the insulated operating axis may be touched and not the electrical connection pins. Furthermore, a fuse has to be connected in series according to the drawing.
The cables towards the module have to be secured against unintentional pulling out (strain relief).
If you think that it is necessary to earth the case, then the black colour has to be scraped off at one fixing hole of the case according to the drawing and a cable-fastening eye with cable for earthing is to be connected electrically with the case.
False connection, short-circuit or overload in the load circuit, too high operating voltage (> 240 V/AC) or overheating (insufficient ventilation) will destroy the module immediately. Since the function of each module has been tested carefully before dispatch, replacement at our expense is not possible!
