Additional Specifications: Phase Angle; Phase Angle Current Limit; & Single Cycle VTB

Operation
• Burst firing (zero-cross) control, single-cycle variable

time base, Type S single-phase and 3-phase. Unit is
not on for more than one full cycle under 50% power
and not off for more than one full cycle above 50%
power.

• Phase angle control, single-phase only

Phase Angle Accuracy
• Output on time is directly proportional to the command

signal. Output on time is accurate to within 5% of the
command signal input at 25 degrees C ambient. See
chart below for command signal input to output power
transfer function. Temperature stability at ambient
temperature is less than 0.25%/degrees C.

Single Cycle VTB Accuracy
• Output power is directly proportional to the command

signal. Output power is accurate to within 5% of the
command signal input at 25 degrees C ambient.
Temperature stability is less than 0.25%/degrees C
ambient temperature change.

Soft Start
(Phase Angle Input Control Signal Type P and L)
Typically:
• 5 seconds soft start on power up
• Soft start on thermostat overtemperature
• Soft start on 1/2 cycle drop out detection
• 1 second soft switching on set point change
Options
• Manual Control Kit (1kž potentiometer) 08-5362
• Alarm option is not available on phase angle type P or

type L.

Resolution
• Better than 0.1% of input span with respect to output

change.

Control Mode, Zero-Cross
• Input Control Signal Type C: V

Î

(dc) input contactor.

To increase service life, the cycle time should be less
than 3 seconds.

• Input Control Signal Type K: V

Å

(ac) input contactor.

To increase service life, the cycle time should be less

• Do not use the DIN-A-MITE Vac-input models with a

temperature controller that includes an RC snubber
circuit across its output. Remove the RC snubber
circuit before placing the DIN-A-MITE into service.

• DC Contactor

4.5 to 32V

Î

Î

(dc) is 6mA per leg. Add 2mA per LED used to the
total current.

• Loop powered linear current

4 to 20mA

Î

(dc): loop-powered. Input Type

F0 option only. (Requires current source with 6.2V

Î

(dc) available. No more than three inputs connected
in series.)

Linearity (Input Control Signal Type F)
• Full on point 19.5 to 19.9mA

Î

(dc), maximum voltage

of 6.2V peak.

• ±5% input to output power accuracy, 0% to 100% of

span (4.3 to 19.7mA or 12.3 to 19.7mA).

• Temperature stability is less than 0.15%/°C change.
