World-Class Induction Heating Systems

EKOHEAT induction heating systems for the 15 to 40 kHz
frequency range provide reliable and repeatable solutions for
heating larger parts that require higher frequencies. Among the
many typical applications are heat treating of steels, preheating for
forging of steel, aluminum, copper or brass, crystal growing, and
heating of graphite and metal crucibles.
With the versatile EKOHEAT power control system you get rapid
tuning, efficient and precise heating of your parts, a 12 bit power
control with a 0.024% resolution and an easy-to-use, easy-to-read
front panel. Remote control is accomplished with 0-10V, 4-20mA
inputs, RS485 serial port, 24V controls and remote E-Stop input
so integration with your automated production lines is easy.
EKOHEAT technology improves return on investment by reducing
your energy usage compared to gas-fired and resistive heating
techniques. With very efficient power conversion and a power
factor greater than 0.9, utility demand charges are reduced,
lowering monthly energy bills. EKOHEAT modular systems are
designed on a host/client principle so you can add additional
power should your process require it in the future.
A separate cabinet houses the resonating capacitor bank,
available in several different sizes to meet customer-specific
applications. This workhead may be placed up to 30 meters from
the power supply.

Alternatively the resonating capacitor may be
mounted in an extra bay to locate it with the power
supply.
This is a water-cooled system, requiring connection
to a heat exchanger or other means of dissipating
heat.
