SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING

Observe all warnings and cautions in this manual. Failure to do so may result in serious injury or death.

Refer all service to properly trained and qualified service personnel. Never work alone.

Lethal voltages exist on exposed heat sinks even if the power controller is turned off. Remove power and lock

out power before attempting any service.

This manual contains important safety instructions that must be followed during the installation and

maintenance of the SCR Power controller. Read this manual thoroughly before attempting to operate this

Power controller.

An appropriate branch circuit fused disconnect or circuit breaker with this Power Controller is required to

ensure the safety of operating personnel.

CAUTION

HAZARDOUS VOLTAGES exist at the Power Controller Line and Load terminals, AT ALL TIMES, when input

voltage is connected. This condition exists even when the Power Controller is set to deliver zero output.

Printed circuit boards contain sensitive components that can be damaged by electrostatic discharge (ESD).

Observe precautions for handling electrostatic sensitive devices. Reference Maintenance and Troubleshooting

Chapter of this manual for details

In case of fire, use a dry chemical fire extinguisher to put out the fire. Using a liquid fire extinguisher may

cause electric shock.

The SCR Power Controller makes use of components dangerous for the environment (electronic printed circuit

boards, electronic components). The components removed must be taken to specialized collection and

disposal centers.

Rev 2 Ametek HDR Power Systems 3

CHAPTER 1 - Description

1.1 General Description

The ZF2 is three-phase 2-leg/4 SCR control and the ZF3 is a three-phase, 3-leg/6 zero-fired SCR

Power Controller. Each of these 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. HDR’s zero-fired SCR Power Controls utilize a variable-time-base that

helps maintain constant power to the load. 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 phase 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 ZF2/ZF3 SSR power controller are given in Tables 1.1 and 1.2.

ZF2 (or ZF3) – 480 – 25 – CL – FK – 01

NOTE: * Requires 24 Vac Transformer Option

1.4 Option NO/NC (Thermostat)

Heatsink Thermostats (Option NO or NC) provide a dry contact either Normally Open (NO) or Normally

Closed (NC).

1.5 Option FK (Fuse Kit)

The Fuse Kit (Option FK) consists of a Semi-Conductor Fuse and a fuse block. It is the user's

responsibility to mount this fuse kit and connect in series with the Line of the Power Controller.

1.6 Option TX (24 Vac Transformer)

The ZF1 requires 24 Vac @ 3VA control power for Voltage or Pot Command signal. Appropriate sized

transformer (Option TX) is available with 120, 240, 400, 480 or 600 Vac primaries.

NOTE: The ZF2/ZF3 should be tested or operated with an adequate load since an open output will have line

voltage at the load connections.

1.7 Option UB (Load Unbalance Alarm)

The Load Unbalance Alarm Option (UB) monitors three phase currents and provides an alarm if the

load currents become unbalanced by more than the preset percentage. The limit is DIP switch

selectable and a form C relay is available for alarm along with diagnostic indicators. This option is

mounted external to ZF2/ZF3 Power Controller, reference 3-phase Load Unbalance & Shorted SCR

Alarm manual.

1.8 Option SF (SCR Failure Alarm)

The SCR Failure Alarm Option (SF) optional circuit monitors each SCR pair’s voltage drop and detects

when an SCR is shorted. Three green LEDs are lit when the SCRs are not shorted. If an SCR shorts,

the respective green LED will go out and the red alarm LED will light and the Form C relay will

energize. Relay output and terminals for connection are provided. This option is mounted external to

ZF2/3 Power Controller, reference 3-phase Load Unbalance & Shorted SCR Alarm manual.

ZF2/ZF3 SSR Power Controller Installation

Rev 2 Ametek HDR Power Systems 5

CHAPTER 2 - Installation

2.1 Mounting the ZF2/ZF3

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 ZF2 or ZF3 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. An insulator is also provided to install between the transformer and the mounting plate.

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 ZF2/ZF3 SSR Power Controller

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 ZF2/ZF3 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 1/4W 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 ZF2/ZF3. The potentiometer should be rated 5 k, 1/2 Watt minimum.

Reference the schematic in Appendix A.

The Command Signal is NOT isolated from the Line. An isolated device such as an isolated PLC

output module to drive the command signal is required or damage can occur to the Power Controller.

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.
