Product catalog summary
Overview
The TFi Digital Induction Power Supply by Radyne is a series of precision power converters designed for various heating applications. These converters are suitable for a wide range of induction heating processes, including surface hardening, joining, bonding, shrink fitting, wire heat treatment, cable preparation, crystal growing, silicon processing, melting, and general induction heating.

Specifications
The TFi series utilizes high-efficiency IGBT power semiconductors with fast switching characteristics, ideal for applications between 3 - 50 kHz. The converters are constructed using modular power transistor assemblies rated at 60 & 250 kW, allowing for a power range from 20 kW to 2000 kW. They are available in versions suitable for both high and low impedance load conditions.

Construction
The compact design of the TFi series allows for easy installation into process lines or manufacturing cells. The converters can also be integrated into standalone induction heating machines. The series offers nominal output frequencies of 3, 10, 30, and 50 kHz.

Display and Interface
The TFi series features a 7-inch color LCD touch screen (optional 12-inch), digital/analog metering, diagnostics display, trend graphs, energy consumption monitoring, and an auto-tune/load matching program. It supports local recipe storage and easy communication with production PLCs, with selectable communication options including local, remote, Ethernet, and RS-232.

Digital Control System
The TF-i series includes an advanced digital control system with Dual Core ARM processors, digitally controlled frequency output, precision set-point power control, programmable frequency ramp control, and internal data logging.

Features
The TFi series offers flexible operation for a wide range of heating loads, conversion efficiency up to 95%, easy installation and operation, compliance with European safety and EMC standards, and simple water cooling requirements. It is compact with a small footprint and provides quick start-up and ramp to full power.

Benefits
The TFi series is designed for high reliability with fully self-protecting features, making it a robust choice for industrial heating applications.

Cabinet Specifications
The document lists various models with their respective power ratings and frequency capabilities, ranging from 3 kHz to 50 kHz and power outputs from 75 kW to 2000 kW.

TFi Series Power Convertor-1

TFi DIGITAL INDUCTION POWER SUPPLY Precision Power Converters for Heating Applications The TFi series of converters from Radyne offers a selection of power and frequency combinations suitable for most induction heating applications. Applications suited to the rugged, reliable and flexible TFi series includes: • Surface Hardening Joining Processes Shrink Fitting Wire Heat Treatment • Cable Preparation Crystal Growing Silicon Processing General Induction Heating Applications Radyne TFi Converters utilise high efficiency IGBT power semi-conductors with faster switching characteristics, ideally suited to inductuion heating applications between 3 - 50 kHz. The performance of the TFi series tuned output circuit can be matched to the working load by selecting the appropriate output tapping and amount of capacitance built into the converter to suit the required coil configuration. The compact design of the TFi series ensures that it can be easily installed into process lines or manufacturing cells. Alternatively the converter can be intergrated into the construction of a free-standing induction heating machine. CONSTRUCTION The complete range of TFi convertors is constructed using modular power transistor assemblies rated at 60 & 250 kW. By using one, two or more modules, an extensive range from 20 kW to 2000kW is available using a limited number of external cabinet sizes. Available with nominal output frequencies of 3, 10, 30 and 50 kHz the TFi range is produced in two versions suitable for both high and low impedance load conditions likely to be encountered in the majority of industrial process heating applications.
