Watlow DIN-A-MITE® D SCR Power Controller
The DIN-A-MITE® D silicon controlled rectifier (SCR) power controller provides an inexpensive, versatile product for controlling heat in an efficient package. This controller is designed and manufactured with the quality features expected from Watlow®. The mounting footprint matches that of the industry standard mercury displacement relay, but there is no need to worry about mercury, the DIN-A-MITE controller is mercury free.

The DIN-A-MITE Style D is capable of zero cross switching up to 100 amperes single-phase, at 600VAC at 86°F (30°C), depending on the model selected. Combining the input of two or three controllers allows control of three-phase loads. The controller is completely touch-safe and includes on-board, front-accessible, semiconductor fuses. Options
include a current transformer for load current monitoring and a shorted output alarm. The controller is UL® 508, C-UL® and CE approved making it ideal for panels and cabinets that require agency approvals.

Variable time-base, 4-20mA process control and VAC/VDC input contactor options are available. All options are model number dependent and factory configurable. This power controller also includes 200KA short circuit current rating (SCCR) tested up to 480VAC to minimize damage in the event of a short circuit when used with required fusing.
