Protection
CD3000 thyristor family has a polymeric plastic cover in compliance to International specification
IP20. To understand if IP20 protection is sufficient should be evaluated the installation place where
the units are installed.
Open Type Equipment.
Maximum surrounding air temperature 40°C.
Earth
CD3000 family has isolated heatsink. For safety connect the heatsink to earth to avoid shocks in
case that circuit board or thyristors lost insulation. Earth impedance should be correspondent to
local earth regulation. Periodically the earth efficiency should be inspected.
Electronic Supply
CD3000 family electronic circuit should be supplied by dedicated voltage supply for all electronic
circuit but not in parallel with contactor's coil, solenoids and other inductive or capacitive loads. It's
recommended to use a shielded transformer.
Electromagnetic compatibility
Our thyristor unit has an excellent immunity to electromagnetic interferences if all suggestions
contained in this manual are respected. In respect to a good Engineering practise, all inductive
loads like solenoids contactor coils should have a filter in parallel.
Emissions
All thyristor switching at high speed generate some radiofrequency disturbance. CD3000 serie
complies with EMC rules for CE mark. In many installations near electronic devices has not been
noted problems. If radiofrequency device at low frequency are used near the thyristor unit, some
precautions should be taken like line filters and shielded cables for input signal and for load cables.
