EPC 60 Retrofit

Reason to upgrade

MACE, IPC 231 and EPC 30: Not possible to get parts anymore EPC 41/400: The electrical components on the EPC print card is difficult to get hold of. In many cases we must special order parts.

We need to protect the new EPC We need to protect the new EPC 60 against cut-off voltage peaks 60 against cut-off voltage peaks To cover the customers need We have two different cabinets generated in the coils on the generated in the coils on the regarding supply voltage to the available; one for conventional water block. We mount these water block. We mount these system we have two different separators: WHPX, MOPX, MMPX protectors on the exiting coils. protectors on the exiting coils. transformer kits available.

The new EPC 60 needs two temperature signals and we supply a new 2xPT 100 sensor if not available in the old installation. The EPC 60 Retrofit is connected to the heater in another way than the old system so we need a heater control box to redirect the signals to and from the heater cabinet.
