Specifications

EPack Lite-1PH controller order codes

The EPack Lite power controller is ordered using a short code for the

chargeable options and an extended option configuration code for

commissioning.

If the extended code is not used, the software configuration is completed

using a quick start procedure.

Current rating of EPack Lite controllers may be upgraded at any time using

a software key order code.

Benefits

The end user, the machine builder or the system integrator expects

the best solutions in terms of performance, ease of use and reliability

in order to control the energy delivered to their process.

Eurotherm EPack™ Lite-1PH Compact SCR Power Controllers offer

a simplified feature set for fast commissioning without compromise

on performance. They provide a high level of quality, accuracy and

reliability to the process. The products allow to control single phase

non variable resistive, primary transformer and short wave infrared

loads. The EPack Lite product combines simplicity of setup and

operation in a compact format. The configurable firing modes allow

close matching to load characteristics to optimise process efficiency.

As manufacturers are required to meet tighter safety

standards, Watlow has addressed this need with its new

SERIES LS safety limit. This new limit meets UL® 1998

and EN 60730 safety requirements and will shut down

a system to prevent damage to equipment or injury to

personnel.

Watlow’s SERIES LS is recommended for any application

where control failure could cause the temperature of

the application to continue to increase resulting in large

product scrap costs, damage to system equipment or

potential fire hazard.

The SERIES LS provides increased safety due to the use

of a factory fixed set point, factory fixed hysteresis and

the use of redundant temperature sensors to protect

against a single point sensor failure. Either sensor can

initiate an overtemperature limit condition along with a

deviation between sensors greater than the process

comparison value.

Watlow’s new SERIES LS offers fixed limit set point

temperature values that are customer definable in the

product configuration part number. It is available with

a potted module design configuration and push-on,

quick connect spade terminals to provide the electrical

connections.
