Product catalog summary
Overview
EKOHEAT induction heating systems are designed for efficient heating across various part geometries, sizes, and compositions. They offer multiple capacitor and transformer configurations, voltage or power control, and agile frequency tuning. The systems support remote operation and logging, and are compatible with international AC line voltages.

Applications
These systems are suitable for applications requiring deep heat penetration, such as heat treating steel, preheating for forging, and melting in crucibles. They operate in the 2 to 6 kHz frequency range and are ideal for use with large coils or larger parts.

Features
- Rapid tuning and precise heating with a 12-bit power control and 0.024% resolution.
- User-friendly front panel controls with system diagnostics and multilingual display.
- Remote control via 0-10V, 4-20mA inputs, RS485 serial port, and 24V controls.
- Energy-efficient with a power factor greater than 0.9, reducing utility demand charges.
- Modular design allows for future power expansion.

Specifications
- Power output ranges from 300 to 500 kW.
- Operates at AC line voltages of 360 - 520 Vac, 3Ø.
- Water-cooled system requiring a heat exchanger.
- Compliance with CE EN61010 and EN55011 standards.
- Ingress protection rated at IP54, NEMA 12.

Options and Accessories
- Start-up assistance and cooling systems.
- Auto-tap selection and redundant safety relays.
- Extended workhead cable lengths and optical pyrometer for closed-loop temperature control.
- External controller (PLC) and complete spare parts kits.

Conclusion
EKOHEAT systems provide a versatile and efficient solution for induction heating needs, with advanced control features and energy-saving benefits, making them suitable for a wide range of industrial applications.

Ambrell INDUCTION HEATING SOLUTIONS Power to 500 kW: Operation from 2 kHz to 6 kHz EkoHeat With VPA Technology World-class Induction Heating Systems EKOHEAT induction heating systems for the 2 to 6 kHz frequency range provide reliable and repeatable solutions for heating with large coils or for heating larger parts. Typical applications include heating parts that require deeper heat penetration, heat treating steel, preheating for forging of steel, aluminum, copper or brass, and melting in 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 VPA systems are designed on a host/ client principle so you can add additional power should your process require it in the future. The 2 to 6 kHz systems have additional reserve current capability for heating steels through curie. A separate cabinet houses the tappable 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. This is a water-cooled system, requiring connection to a heat exchanger or other means of dissipating heat. Alternatively the resonating capacitor may be mounted in an extra bay to locate it with the power supply. Versatile • Efficient heating of many part geometries, sizes and compositions - Multiple capacitor configurations - Multiple tap transformer configurations - Voltage or Power control • Repeatable, reliable heating, agile frequency tuning • Through-Curie heating • Movable workhead; up to 30m (100’) • Sub-second to continuous cycle times • Remote operation or logging with RS485 port • Accepts international AC line voltages EKOHEAT AT-A-GLANCE Easy to Use • User-friendly operator front panel controls • System configuration from front panel • Cycle timer, peak and short-cycle data capture • 10 ten-step heating profiles • Overload-tolerant output management • 7-language display suite (EN, ES, FR, DE, IT, pt, PL) • System diagnostics displayed on front panel EKOHEAT is CE marked and manufactured at our IS0 9001:2008 certified facili
