Industrial Heat Control Systems for Electric Process Heating
Solcon-IGEL Industrial Heat Control Systems provide precise power regulation for electric heating applications used in refineries, petrochemical plants, offshore platforms and heavy industrial facilities. Built on advanced thyristor control technology, these systems regulate voltage and current supplied to heating elements, enabling accurate temperature control while protecting critical process equipment.
Industrial heat control systems are used to manage electrical power delivered to heaters in process equipment such as furnaces, reactors, pipelines and trace heating systems. By controlling heater power output, these systems help maintain stable process temperatures, prevent overheating and improve the overall reliability of industrial heating installations.
Accurate Power Control and Process Stability
Modern industrial heating systems require precise power control to ensure stable operation under changing process conditions. Solcon-IGEL heat control systems use advanced firing techniques such as zero-cross and phase-angle thyristor control to deliver smooth and repeatable power regulation.
This approach enables:
-
precise temperature control for critical processes
-
reduced thermal stress on heating elements
-
stable operation under fluctuating electrical supply conditions
-
improved lifetime of heaters and connected equipment
These capabilities are particularly important in industries where temperature stability directly impacts product quality and operational safety.
Typical Industrial Applications
Industrial heat control systems are widely used in applications where reliable and accurate temperature regulation is essential, including:
-
refineries and petrochemical plants
-
offshore oil and gas platforms
-
chemical processing facilities
-
metallurgical and glass industries
-
industrial HVAC and process heating systems
In these environments, systems must operate reliably despite challenging conditions such as high ambient temperatures, electrical noise and demanding safety requirements.
Solcon-IGEL Heat Control Platforms
Solcon-IGEL offers two main platforms designed to support a wide range of heating power requirements:
TPS Industrial Heat Control System
Designed for low-voltage heating applications from 230 V to 1200 V, providing accurate power control, integrated protection and flexible system integration.
MV-TPS Medium Voltage Heat Control System
Designed for large-scale heating systems connected directly to medium-voltage networks up to 13.8 kV, reducing transformer requirements and simplifying plant electrical infrastructure.
Both systems provide advanced monitoring, protection and modular architecture to support reliable operation in demanding industrial environments.
