WARNING! When in use the power controller is connected to dangerous voltages. Do not
remove the protective covers without first disconnecting and preventing power from being restored
while servicing the unit.
AVERTISSEMENT! Au moment de l'utilisation, le régulateur de puissance est connecté a des
tensions dangereuses. Ne retirer aucun couvercle de protection sans d'abord débrancher l'appareil et
ainsi empêcher l'alimentation d'être rétablie pendant l'entretien.
WARNING! Do not use in aerospace or nuclear applications.
AVERTISSEMENT! Ne pas utiliser pour les applications aérospatiales ou nucléaires.
WARNING! The power controller's protection rating is IP20 with all covers installed and closed.
It must be installed in an enclosure that provides all the necessary additional protections appropriate
for the environment and application.
AVERTISSEMENT! L'indice de protection du régulateur de puissance est de IP20 lorsque les
couvercles sont installés et fermés. L'appareil doit être installé dans une enceinte qui assure toute la
protection supplémentaire nécessaire pour l'environnement et l'application.
WARNING! Ground the power controller via the provided protective earth grounding terminal.
Verify ground is within impedance specifications. This should be verified periodically.
AVERTISSEMENT! Mise a la terre du régulateur de puissance par le biais de la borne de prise de
terre de protection fournie. Vérifier que la prise de terre est conforme aux spécifications de
l'impédance. Cela doit être vérifié périodiquement.
WARNING! Electric Shock Hazard: when the power controller has been energized, after shutting

internes se déchargent avant de commencer tout travail incluant le contact avec les connexions
électriques ou les composants internes.
WARNING! The installation must be protected by electromagnetic circuit breakers or by fuses.
The semiconductor fuses located inside the power controller are classified for UL as supplementary
protection for semiconductor devices. They are not approved for branch circuit protection.
AVERTISSEMENT! L'installation doit être protégée par des disjoncteurs électromagnétiques ou
des fusibles. Les fusibles pour semi-conducteurs situés a l'intérieur du régulateur de puissance sont
classés UL comme protection supplémentaire pour les dispositifs pour semi-conducteurs. Ils ne sont
pas approuvés pour la protection des circuits de dérivation.
WARNING! When making live voltage or current measurements, use proper personal
protective equipment for the voltages and arc-flash potentials involved.
AVERTISSEMENT! Au moment de relever des mesures de tension ou de courant en direct,
utiliser un équipement de protection individuelle approprié pour les tensions et les potentiels d'arc
électrique concernés.

WARNING! Verify the voltage and current ratings of the power controller are correct for the
application.
AVERTISSEMENT! Vérifier que Les valeurs de tension et de courant du régulateur de puissance
sont correctes pour l'application.
CAUTION: To avoid compromising the insulation, do not bend wire or other components
beyond their bend radius specifications.
ATTENTION: Pour éviter de compromettre l'isoLation, ne pas pLier le fil ou tout autre composant
au-delà de ses spécifications en matière de rayon de courbure.
CAUTION: Protect the power controller from high temperature, humidity and vibrations.
ATTENTION: Protéger le régulateur de puissance contre les températures élevées, l'humidité
et les vibrations.
CAUTION: The power controller warranty is void if the tested and approved fuses are not used.
ATTENTION: La garantie du régulateur de puissance est nulle si aucun fusible testé et approuvé
n'est utilisé.
CAUTION: Only trained and authorized personnel should access and handle the internal
electronics and they must follow proper electro-static prevention procedures.
ATTENTION: Seul le personnel formé et autorisé peut accéder aux composants électroniques
internes et les gérer, et il doit se conformer a des procédures de prévention électrostatique
appropriées.
CAUTION: Install an appropriately sized RC fiLter across contactor coils, reLays and other inductive
Loads.
ATTENTION: Installer un filtre RC de dimensions appropriées sur les bobines du contacteur,
les relais et autres charges par induction.
NOTE! Provide a local disconnect to isolate the power controller for servicing.
REMARQUE: Fournir une déconnexion LocaLe afin d'isoLer Le réguLateur de puissance pour
L'entretien.
NOTE! The nominaL current is specified for ambient temperatures at or beLow 40° C. Ensure the
appLication design allows for adequate cooling of each power controller. The power controller must be
mounted vertically. The cooling design must prevent air heated by one power controller from causing
power controllers mounted above to exceed the ambient operating temperature limit. When power
controllers are mounted side by side allow a minimum spacing of 15mm between them.

REMARQUE: Le courant nominal est précisé pour des températures ambiantes égales ou
inférieures a 40°C. S'assurer que la conception de l'application permette le refroidissement adéquat
de chaque régulateur de puissance. Le régulateur de puissance doit être monté verticalement. La
conception de refroidissement doit empêcher l'air chauffé par le régulateur de puissance de dépasser
la limite de température de fonctionnement ambiante de la part des régulateurs de puissance montés
au-dessus. Lorsque les régulateurs de puissance sont montés côte a côte, il faut conserver un
espacement minimal de 15 mm entre les deux
NOTE! Use only copper cables and wires rated for use at 75°C or greater.
REMARQUE: N'utiliser que des cables et des fils en cuivre pour l'utilisation a 75°C ou plus.
3Maintenance
In order to have a corrected cooling, the user must clean the heat-sink and the protective grill of the
fans. The frequency of this servicing depends on environmental pollution.
Also check periodically if the screw for the power cables and safety earth are tightened correctly
(See Connection Diagram)
3.1 Return Material Authorization (RMA)
Customers wishing to return any items, whether they are incorrectly supplied, faulty or damaged in
transit, must first complete a Return Material Authorisation (RMA) form to obtain an RMA number from
the Service Department.
A full repair service is available for customers. Prior to submitting the RMA form and returning products,
customers are recommended to contact the technical support team to determine whether the issue can
be resolved with telephone support.
How the RMA service works
The RMA form and details are available on our web sites:
https://www.cdautomation.com/returns-material-authorisation/
When completing the RMA form, please be as specific as possible about the problem, including any
pertinent application details. The more information given, the more quickly and more thoroughly the
problem can be solved.
The minimum information required is:
1. The Full Model Number
2. Quantity of units being returned
3. The units Serial Number(s)
4. A description of the problem ( “faulty” or “unknown” is not sufficient)
3.2 Warranty condition
Producer gives a 12 months warranty to its products.
The warranty is limited to repairing and parts substitution in our factory and does exclude products not
properly used and fuses.
Warranty does not include products with serial numbers deleted. The faulty product should be shipped

4Introduction
A thyristor unit is semiconductor device which acts as a switch formed by two thyristors in ant
parallel.To switch on the alternating current the input signal will be on and the thyristor will switch off at
first Zero Crossing voltage with no input signal.The benefits of thyristor units compared with
elettromechanical contactors are numerouses: no moving parts, no maintenance and capacity to switch
very fast. Thyristors are the only solution to control transformers and special loads that change
resistance with temperature and with age.

4.1 Advantages compared with analog thyristor unit
Communication RS485 is a standard feature of REVO C this allows the use of many information like:
current, power, load state and all the parameters for diagnostic and configuration. Ulterior advantages
of the digital system vs the analogical is the flexibility and the possibility of implement special
characteristics without change the hardware. Several strategies can be implemented and selected
through the configuration parameters.
With software configuration, you can have access to the configuration parameters.To connect the
Thyristor unit to the computer use a micro USB cable
