Rev 3 Ametek HDR Power Systems 3
CHAPTER 1 - Description
1.1 General Description
The ZF1 is a Single-phase, phase-fired power controller, and can operate with a wide variety of input
signals and line voltages up to 575 Vac and currents ranging from 15 through 70 amperes. The ZF1’s
output voltage is proportional to its input signal. The ZF1 SSR Series utilizes an isolated base Solid-
State-Relay (SSR) Module which contains two SCRs connected back to back. The firing circuit is
based on a common zero firing integrated circuit which includes soft-start for loads which have a large
resistance change due to temperature or start-up. Terminals are provided to ease installation.
1.2 Application
A variable time base firing circuit is used to provide precise control of power to resistive loads. These
units should never be used on inductive loads. However, they are versatile enough to be used in
place of mechanical contactors and mercury relays on dryers, kilns, ovens, environmental chambers,
extruders, molding equipment, and other types of equipment which uses resistive heat.
1.3 Specification
Specifications for the ZF1 SSR power controller are given in Tables 1.1 and 1.2.
Table 1.1 ZF1 Model Number Breakdown

Rev 3 Ametek HDR Power Systems 5
CHAPTER 2 - Installation
2.1 Mounting the ZF1
Determine space and mounting hole requirements by referring to the outline drawing (in the Appendix)
that applies to your model’s current rating. Mount the unit so the line and load connections are at the
top and ensure that upward airflow over the heat sink fins is unrestricted.
2.2 Load Wiring
Connect the load to the proper terminals (refer to the input/output connections schematic in Appendix
A) using appropriately sized and insulated conductors. All input/output conductors should be stranded
copper wire only; minimum temperature rating is 75 ºC.
2.3 Line Wiring
Connect input lines from the fused disconnect or circuit breaker to the Line terminal (refer to the
input/output connections diagram) using appropriately sized and insulated conductors. (NOTE: Input
power should be routed through a fused disconnect or circuit breaker with a fuse or trip rating of 100%
to 125% of the current rating stamped on the nameplate of the ZF1 series unit.)
Torque Line and Load connection to 45 in-lbs.
If required, mount and connect the Control transformer (Option TX) per the schematic in Appendix A.
Select the appropriate Transformer voltage tap as shown in Table 2.1 and solder wires to the primary
terminals.

WARNING - ELECTRIC SHOCK CAN KILL
HAZARDOUS VOLTAGES exist at the (LINE and LOAD) terminals when the
input voltage is connected. This condition exists even when the Controller is
set to deliver zero output. Always remove power and properly lock out power to
the unit before attempting any service, including the load.
WARNING
Branch circuit overcurrent protection required is to be provided in accordance
with the national and local codes of the inspecting authority.

Installation ZF1 SCR Power Controller
6 Ametek HDR Power Systems Rev 3
2.4 Wiring Input Fuse
An Option (FK) Fuse Kit is available with high speed fuses (I²T) to protect the Solidstate Relays (SSR)
from Load shorts. The fuses are NOT meant for over current protection, separate branch circuit
protection is required. Mount the fuse blocks, reference Appendix G for mounting details.
2.5 Command Signal Input
HDR’s ZF1 SSR Power Controllers have the capability of having a current, voltage or potentiometer
Command Signal input. On –C models it is current control only. If the Firing board is capable of both
voltage and current there is a 500 ohm 1/4 W resistor is connected across terminals 1 and 2, for
voltage command and remote potentiometer the 500 ohm resistor is removed. For Remote control a
potentiometer may be located on a remote panel near other controls related to the process being
powered by the ZF1. The potentiometer should be rated 5 kΩ, 1/2 Watt minimum. Reference the
schematic in Appendix A.
2.6 Heatsink Thermostat Contacts
Normally-open (N.O.) or normally-closed (N.C.) thermostat is mounted to the heat sink when this
option is purchased. This thermostat, which close or open on high heat sink temperature (200 ºF),
may be used to initiate an alarm, shunt trip, or other device for SCR protection.

ZF1 SCR Power Controller Operation
Rev 3 Ametek HDR Power Systems 7
CHAPTER 3 - Operation
3.1 General
The ZF1 controls power by the switching action of two SCRs connected in a back to back
configuration. The zero crossing detector built into the solid-state relay module synchronizes the
gating of these SCRs with the line frequency (either 50 or 60 Hz). The firing circuit provides timing
pulses to the SSR proportional to the command signal. The power controller regulates the output
voltage by proportionally controlling the number of AC cycles “on” versus the number “off”. Because
the voltage is “turned on” at zero crossing, very little radio frequency interference (RFI) is generated
and the power factor (PF) is near unity. The output may be adjusted by a voltage or current signal
from a process controller. Zero and Span controls allow the user to calibrate the power controller’s
output to the process signal.
The firing control circuit of the ZF1 operates on a variable rather than fixed time base. Operating on a
fixed-time base of 1/3 second (20 cycles), for example, at 50% power the SCRs would be on for 10
cycles, off for 10 cycles, on for 10 cycles, and so on. Operating on a variable-time-base, at 50%
power, the SCRs are on for one cycle and off for the next. At 75% power, the controller, with a fixed-
time-base of one-third second (20 cycles), would be on for 15 cycles and off for 5. The variable-time-
base, however, would be on for three cycles, off for one, and so on. The time required to describe the
operation of the ZF1 would be the period of four cycles in this case – three cycles on and one cycle off.
For 50% power, the time required to describe the operation of the variable-time-base would be the
period of two cycles – one cycle on and one cycle off. Hence the time-base of the ZF1 would be the
period of two cycles for 50% power and four cycles for 75% power. The time-base varies for other
power levels as well, so its period is always that of a whole number of cycles
Keep in mind that ZF units can only be used on resistive loads. If an inductive load or a load with a
large resistance change (instantaneously or cold to hot) is being used, a phase fired (PF) power
control should be used.
3.2 Command Signal Indicator
The Command Signal Indicator is a green Light Emitting Diode (LED) located on the Firing board. The
brilliance of this LED will change with a Command Signal. The flash rate increases with an increased
Command Signal and decreases with a decreased Command Signal
3.3 Command Input Control
Connect the control signal per the schematic in Appendix A. The ZF1 Zero and Span is calibrated at
the Factory for the specified input type and normally does NOT need adjustment. However, should a
setup be required use the following methods. (Note: Adjustments requires a jeweler’s screw driver for
multi-turn bias & gain adjustments.)
The output voltage linearity for any given command is affected by the setting of the Zero and Span
adjustments.
a. Set the ZERO and SPAN controls fully CCW (counterclockwise).
b. Connect a voltmeter across terminals LINE and LOAD of the ZF1. Set the voltmeter range to
measure full input voltage.
c. Close the fused disconnect or circuit breaker to apply power to the ZF1. Turn the Process
controller on and set to demand zero power output or remote potentiometer fully CCW.
d. Adjust the ZERO control CW until the output just turns on, then turn the ZERO control CCW just to
the point where the output voltage reading is zero.

Operation ZF1 SCR Power Controller
8 Ametek HDR Power Systems Rev 3
e. Set the Process controller to demand 100% output or the remote potentiometer fully CW.
Observing the voltmeter, adjust SPAN CW just to the point where the reading is below the
maximum output voltage. Then adjust SPAN CW just to the point where the meter reading is at
maximum.
Note: The output voltage measurement on Zero Fired Power Controllers with a digital voltmeter
will be erratic except at full output. This is due to the variable pulses to regulate the output.
f. Repeat steps 3.3c through 3.3e as necessary, to ensure proper control adjustments have been
made.
g. Turn off the line power to the ZF1 and disconnect the test equipment. The ZF1 is now ready for
operation.

ZF1 SCR Power Controller Troubleshooting
Rev 3 Ametek HDR Power Systems 9
CHAPTER 4 – Troubleshooting
4.1 Customer-Service Program
Although service is seldom necessary, because of the inherent long-term reliability of solid-state
components and conservative design, Ametek HDR Power Systems emphasizes customer satisfaction
by maintaining a rapid-response and cooperative customer-service. If operational difficulties occur,
Ametek HDR Power Systems will provide replacement parts or units quickly, courteously and
efficiently. If servicing problems arise that are not within the scope of the following troubleshooting
guide, service is readily available, as detailed in Chapter 5.
4.2 Troubleshooting Typical Symptoms
The ZF1 is considered to be operating properly when its output voltage can be satisfactorily varied
from 0% to 97% of the available input voltage by a control signal. Improper operation of the unit is
usually indicated by one of the following symptoms:
a. No output.
b. Full output at all times, with no change resulting from a control signal change.
c. Output variable from some intermediate value to maximum, but cannot be brought to zero.
d. Output variable from zero to some intermediate value, but cannot be brought to maximum.
The symptoms listed may be caused by one or more of the following: an environmental problem,
faulty input-power or load connections, and the ZF1 itself. These possible causes should be
investigated as described in Chapters 4.4 through 4.6.
4.3 Static Precautions when Servicing
Servicing should be performed by qualified personnel only, following procedures described herein.
If troubleshooting indicates a need to replace a component on a printed circuit board or possibly the
entire board, measures to prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage must be taken.
a. ALWAYS wear a wrist strap connected to ground through a 1-megohm resistor when working on
printed circuit boards.
b. Use soldering iron with a grounded tip.
c. Use a non-static solder sucker (metallic) or solder removal braid.
WARNING - ELECTRIC SHOCK CAN KILL
HAZARDOUS VOLTAGES exist at the exposed (LINE and LOAD) terminals
unless the line-source fused disconnect or circuit breaker is open or off.
This is true even when the SCR’s are turned off. Always remove power and
properly lock out power to the unit before attempting any service is
performed.
ATTENTION
Printed circuit boards contain sensitive components that can be damaged
by electrostatic discharge (ESD). Observe precautions for handling
electrostatic sensitive devices.

Troubleshooting ZF1 SCR Power Controller
10 Ametek HDR Power Systems Rev 3
d. Transport static sensitive components in static shielding bags or rails. A new printed circuit board
should be treated as a static sensitive device. A part completely installed on a board does not
make the part static-safe.
e. If possible, perform printed circuit board maintenance at a work station that has a conductive
covering which is grounded through a 1-megohm resistor. If a conductive table top is unavailable,
a clean steel or aluminum table top is an excellent substitute.
f. Keep plastic, vinyl, Styrofoam or other non-conductive materials away from printed circuit boards.
They are good static generators that do not give up their charge easily.
g. Return goods to Ametek HDR Power Systems in static-safe packaging. This will limit further
component damage from ESD.
h. CAUTION. Do not touch any printed circuit board unless you are wearing a ground wrist strap, as
circuit damage may occur. Grounding kits are also available commercially and can be purchased
through most electronic wholesalers.
4.4 Environmental Problems
Check to see that none of the following environmental problems exist.
Inadequate Cooling. Allow at least 1 inch of air space (in any direction) between the heat sinks and
any item or structure near the ZF1 power modules. Heat sink fins should be free of dust or dirt for
proper heat transfer, and free of obstructions which could prevent proper airflow.
Contamination. The unit should be periodically cleaned of all dust and dirt. However, certain kinds of
dust or particles are particularly conductive. A small accumulation of conductive material can cause
component failures from arc-over or complete shorts.
High Ambient Temperature. Lack of a proper ambient-temperature check before installation, or an
increase in ambient temperature, can result in numerous problems. Check the ambient temperature
under existing conditions. If it is 122 ºF (50 ºC) or lower, ambient temperature should not be a
problem. If it is above 122 ºF (50 ºC), steps should be taken to provide more cooling, or the ZF1
should be moved to a cooler location, or call the Ametek HDR Power Systems service department.
Excessive Vibration. A significant degree of pitched or unpitched vibration can cause numerous
problems. If vibration is isolated as a probable cause of improper operation, standard vibration-
isolation mounting techniques should be employed.
4.5 Input Power and Load Connections
Turn off the power to the ZF1 and check all power connections, input and output, to make sure they
are mechanically secure and free of corrosion. Make the same checks at the power source and load.
Visually check insulation on input and load wiring for evidence of damage or overheating.
