Very often in dirty industries, dust clogs mechanical contacts (poor contact, sticking). The use of a contactor with a closed control board prevents the failure of electrical equipment and downtime of production in general.
Сonveyor belts
Screw conveyors
In industries where a screw conveyor is used, dust clogs mechanical contacts (poor contact, sticking). The use of a thyristor contactor with a closed control board prevents equipment failure.
Сrushers
TK-200A for Norilsk Nickel for ore crushers Long-term use of the equipment caused the failure of mechanical contactors due to the peculiarities of the technological process of grinding ore. The supplied thyristor contactors have been operating for more than 10 years.
A prototype TK-250A for a 0.4 kW pumping station for the Ufa Oil Refinery
The system control of pumps during oil pumping is connected with the system control via a computer. The response time of the KT contactor is 0.5 s, the response time of the thyristor contactor and the computer is 0.01 s. In case of emergency shutdowns, the CT does not have time to turn off the pressure of the oil column in time; there is no failure with the thyristor contactor (TC). In winter, condensate accumulated from the heating of mechanical contacts, which led to the failure of the CT, this does not happen with the TC, since there is no mechanical contact.
Modernization of Kemerovokhimmash furnaces Maintaining a temperature regime with a tolerance of 1 degree requires a high frequency of switching on and off, which leads to an early failure of the electromechanical contactor due to sticking of the contacts. The thyristor contactor works on the principle of a contactless key, therefore it has an almost unlimited on / off frequency, which eliminates the problem.
Induction Furnaces
Roller tables
TKR-160A for Norilsk Nickel The frequency of switching on and off leads to premature wear of the mechanical parts of the CT. The use of a thyristor contactor prevents equipment failure, and the useful life is at least 2 years (on average, 7 years)
Tube rolling electric drives
Simultaneous exposure to dust, dirt and temperature leads to wear of the mechanical parts of the CT. In thyristor contactors (TC), this is excluded, since the temperature operating modes of the TC are from -60 ° С to + 120 ° С

The control board of the TC is enclosed in an IP65 housing, which allows the use of the TC at dusty sites.

TP-25A for starting ventilation on Siberian anthracite
The activation of the ventilation system at the processing plant took place through a conventional electromagnetic starter. Coal dust caused the breakage of the starter from time to time. The thyristor starter completely solves this problem and serves with a guarantee of more than 10 years.
Tube rolling electric drives
TK-200A for PJSC Norilsk Nickel
The 45KW pump was operated in an aggressive environment, among the negative factors - a large amount of dirt and dust. The control board of the thyristor contactor is enclosed in a moisture- and dust-proof housing, which allows it to operate even in the most aggressive conditions.
TK-200A for Norilsk Nickel for ore crushers
Long-term use caused failure of mechanical contactors due to the peculiarities of the technological process of grinding ore, the thyristor contactor works with a guarantee of more than 10 years.

Car pushers (reverse)
Pumps
TС-100A for Achinsk heating systems The mechanical contactor that starts the pump does not tolerate high humidity. The solution was to install a thyristor contactor, which is protected from the negative effects of water vapor.
Transformer substations
TK-1000A at KTPN for APS project company (under their project for Surgutneftegaz) Frequent switching on and off leads to failure of electromechanical contactors. Thyristor contactors will reduce the cost of spare parts replacement and unscheduled work.
Frequent switching on and off of car pushers leads to failure of electromechanical contactors. Thyristor contactors will reduce the cost of spare parts replacement and railcar downtime.
Crane facilities
Gantry cranes, beam cranes
TKR-630A for the Kandalaksha sea port on the portal crane Albatros Since coal dust is conductive, contacts close on the portal cranes, which causes failure of the CT. The solution was to install a thyristor contactor, which is protected from the negative effects of coal dust thanks to a moisture and dust tight device.
Prolonged use caused mechanical contactors to fail and ventilation to stop. The service life of the thyristor contactor is at least 7 years of trouble-free operation, which reduces the routine maintenance of equipment.
Pumps
TC-1000A from UMP to Altaivagon for a 75 kW engine Prolonged use caused mechanical contactors to fail and pumps to stop. Thyristor contactor service life of at least 7 years of trouble-free operation allows reducing routine equipment maintenance
Frequency converter and TC instead of introductory machine for Agrospetsmash TC is designed for a pump for an irrigation system.

Supply and exhaust ventilation
Since ferroalloy dust is conductive, then in mechanical contactors to start el. the engine is inadvertently shorted, which leads to failure of ventilation.
TCR-500A for Aktobe Ferroalloy Plant Since ferroalloy dust is conductive, mechanical contactors for starting the electric motor inadvertently close contacts, which leads to failure of the crane facilities.
TC-100A for an induction furnace for hardening products for the Litkom plant An unlimited frequency of switching on and off leads to failure of the electromechanical contactor. The use of TC increases the service life of the furnace and reduces equipment downtime

Elevator facilities (reversing contactors)
A high frequency of switching on and off leads to failure of the electromechanical contactor. The use of a thyristor contactor increases the service life and prevents unwanted failure during the operation of the elevator.
