Embodiment Construction

[0055] The following description is merely exemplary in nature and is not intended in any way to limit the invention, the disclosure or its application or uses.

[0056] (power controller operating environment)

[0057] FIG. 1 illustrates, by way of example, a power control system environment 100 suitable for one or more of the various embodiments of the present disclosure. In FIG. 1 , the heat process contains three processes A 102 , B 104 , and C 106 , with process B 104 requiring heating of the material before proceeding to process C 106 . Such exemplary manufacturing process 100 may include plastic or semiconductor manufacturing processes as examples. In this example, the temperature of Process B 104 is monitored by a sensor (not shown), and the monitored temperature is provided in a sensor signal to a power controller or power control system 108 . The power control system receives the monitored temperature and generates a heater control signal 110 , which may be in the ...

Abstract

A power control system has a controller housing, a power switch disposed within the controller housing for selectively providing power from a power supply to a power load, a limiter disposed within the controller housing configured for providing a limit switching function in response to a threshold limit, and a controller disposed within the controller housing and configured for controlling one or more operations of the control system. The controller housing can include a case having a securing portion positioned proximate to an opening for securing a portion of a connector when coupled with the coupler. An electronic mounting for the power controller, or any other electronic device, can include a bracket and a coupler. The bracket has a mounting flange configured for attachment to a surface within the operating environment, a securing flange, and a plurality of securing tabs offset from the surface and positioned about a periphery of the surface. The bracket includes an offset portion coupling the mounting flange to the securing surface and defining an offset therebetween. The coupler is configured for securing to the securing flange. The bracket and coupler are configured for releasably coupling with less than a full turn.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to power control systems, and more particularly, the present invention relates to power controllers for use in control systems having enclosures. Background technique [0002] The statements in this section merely provide background information related to the present disclosure and may not constitute prior art. [0003] In general, typical power control devices require discrete component selection, custom mounting and wiring for each component and feature and numerous connections. In addition, any changes, additions, modifications and replacements require disconnection and reconnection of various leads, again increasing the chance of wiring errors. As a result, existing power control devices are often complex and expensive to install. This complexity and cost also limits their application, or often the functionality included in specific user applications. For example, limit control, overvoltage or power monitoring compo...
