SRG Series


Electroslag remelting (ESR) furnaces are used for high quality alloy production with specific features (e.g. electric steel).In course of remelting process a consumable metal electrode is lowered into molten slag layer which in it’s turn melts the metal electrode.
TET ESTEL power supply units for ESR furnaces are designed to regulate power and stabilize alternating current flowing through a liquid slag layer. Industrial frequency power supplies are built on thyristor controllers consisting of antiparallel connected thyristors with pulse-phase control.
To compensate for reactive power and increase the power factor as well as to reduce the harmonic distortion factor of the consumed current, capacitor banks maintaining the optimal power factor and controlled by electronic keys are installed at the controller input.
Power supply microprocessor control system enables automatic control of the technological variables (current stabilization at a given level) and dynamic protection from over-current.
Network frequency power source advantage is cost affordability of the solution compared to the low frequency option.
