About Control Concepts, Inc.

We are the market leader in the design and manufacture of stock and custom SCR Power Controllers for the process heating industry. We are confident we have an SCR Power Controller that can reduce your Cost of Ownership (COO).

Why choose Control Concepts Inc?

Reliability: Our controllers have an average lifetime of ten years - they’re built to last and rated conservatively so they perform as specified.

Fast Delivery: We maintain an inventory that allows us to ship most controllers overnight, while our competitors often require weeks to build and deliver the same products. In a factory environment, equipment failure is a worst-case-scenario, and our short lead times make a critical difference in getting production started again.

Expertise: SCR power controllers have been our core focus for over 30 years. We have extensive application experience ranging from simple carbon and chromium loads to complex silicon carbide, molybdenum, and transformer-coupled loads.

Support and Resources: Customers call the factory directly for expert customer support and troubleshooting assistance. We also provide technical resources and video tutorials free on our website.

An Alternative Solution for SCR-Controlled Transformer-Coupled Silicon Carbide Heating Elements

By Control Concepts, Inc.

SCR power controllers operating on the transformer primary often control electric heating applications employing transformer-coupled Silicon Carbide (SiC) heating elements. Traditionally, designers must choose between two modes of operation: phase angle or zero voltage firing. But neither...
