STEP 3 - (continued)
Since the SCR step is kept relativ
ely small (53.3 Kw
), it is still cost effectiv
e
compared to a full SCR 160 KW.
In the following graphic, the sequential loads are switched ON and OFF to match the heat demand.
Lay a str
aightedge v
ertically at an
y position of the control input voltage and find e
xactly which stages are
ON or OFF. The SCR not only fill the gaps but overlaps the gaps between the fixed steps at all times.
