Description
Overview
The REVEX family of 1, 2 and 3 phase thyristor power controllers allows fast, easy to use product set-up and operation. Fully universal, the input control signal, firing and feedback type can be selected via the units front panel display & keypad without the need for internal jumper selection.
Available in 10 current sizes up to 280 Amps and voltage supply up to 600Vac, REVEX with RS485 Comms as standard is perfect for multiple application types.
Benefits
- Helps eliminate machine downtime by up to 95% and can reduce overall purchase cost by 90% over the product lifetime compared to traditional mechanical contactors
- Total flexibility to change spec with ability to reconfigure control input signal, firing and feedback types via the front panel, or free configuration software & USB port
- Connect seamlessly with your management software with in-built RS485 Comms
- Small footprint optimises cabinet space
- Excellent cost/performance ratio with ability to choose or deselect specific options
Features
- Available in single (phase to phase or phase to neutral). Or 3 phase versions (2 phase also available for 3PH, 3 wire configurations with no neutral connection)
- Firing modes include Zero Cross, Burst, Half Cycle, Single Cycle, Delayed Triggering, Phase Angle with or without Soft Start (single phase) and Zero Cross & Burst Firing (3 phase only)
- DC Logic (SSR drive), 0-20mA, 4-20mA or 0-10V input control signals
- Available in 20 amp sizes up to 2100A and 3 voltage sizes, up to 480V, 600V and 690Vac

No problem, our qualified engineers are here ready to answer your call, fax or email. If you like to browse the information first, we have all product information on-line plus useful calculation & product selection tools to help you select the right product. And all accessible 24/7 without the need for passwords or any form filling.
If the item is not in stock then we will normally guarantee the goods delivered within 7 days if required. This may depend on the quantity and size (if thyristors) but for quantities of 20 or less, then this should never be a problem.
We’ve made this as easy and accessible as we can. As the Internet is open 24/7 we have loaded as much relevant product data onto our web site and in a clear concise manner, so you don’t waste unnecessary time. Data includes quick-look guides for wiring / dimensions / start-up, product features & comparisons, selection tools, product data sheets, full installation & operating manuals plus press releases & application notes.
We know from experience that next year the order of 2 may be 500. Our relationship with our clients, big or small, is never taken lightly. See our Company Mission Statement, it’s who we are.
We understand that speed is important in business and as long as you accept that the accuracy of the quote is proportional to the amount of data given, we’ll provide a quote any which way you like (typically over the tel, via fax or email, or in person).
We do not differentiate a telephone enquiry to an email enquiry. The same level of importance is applied to both. You will always receive an email to confirm receipt and a guaranteed personal reply within 20 minutes (within normal working hours).
We offer delivery based on the urgency and size/weight of the goods that match your expectations. From just £6.50 for next day courier, we can offer before 9am, before 12, anytime next day plus two day courier services within the UK.
We only charge the true carriage cost plus any additional package material to get it safely to you. We do not believe its right to charge you any additional admin or labour packing costs, anymore than if we charged you for answering the telephone. And it’s always our responsibility until you sign & receive the goods.
If it’s legal then we can accept it. We operate favourable credit accounts, payment by credit card via the web site or over the phone, cheque or cash payments, in Sterling or Euros.
