VIP® Series of Induction Power Supplies:
VIP Power-Trak & VIP Power-Melt
Inductotherm’s family of solid-state VIP® (Variable Induction Power) power supply systems have the fastest melt rates from cold charge to pour, and melt more kilograms per kWh and kVA for lower melting costs and greater productivity. Inductotherm also offers solid-state three-phase as well as single-phase power supplies for specific application needs.

 |
VIP®-I™ Series of Induction Power Supplies:
Inductotherm’s small VIP®-I™ series of IGBT-based induction power supply systems, in the 15 kW to 600 kW range, feature advanced IGBT power components, husky copper bus bars, precise and responsive digital controls, informative diagnostic functions and can be fully configured with a variety of options. VIP®-I™ units are significantly smaller and more compact than prior silicon controlled rectifiers units in this size range.

 |
VIP® Multiple-Output Induction Power Supplies:
VIP® Multiple-Output Systems can power two or more induction furnaces simultaneously for greater production with a minimum investment for each tonne of metal being poured. Some of the many advantages include: a single power unit with the batch production capacity of multiple units; increased alloy flexibility; equipment power utilisation levels approaching 100% and the ability to direct full rated power to one furnace while fully isolating another during maintenance operations. |
 |
VIP® Multi-Switch™ Power Supplies:
VIP® Multi-Switch™ Power Supply Systems closely control the desired temperature over the entire hot zone with two or more multiplexed power outputs heating separate sections of the susceptor. This is done independently to provide full and precise zoned temperature control for a wide variety of high temperature controlled atmosphere heating and sintering operations such as CVD, CVI and carbon carbon composite production.

| VIP Power-Trak Digital Controls |
|
| In its standard configuration, a VIP Powe -Trak includes an intelligent digital control board with fiber-optic connectors for clear signal processing, a bright LED panel system information display |
|
| For advanced computer control assistance, VIP power supplies are available with built-in Melt-Manager ® Plus™ automation or for connection to external Meltminder ® 200 computer control systems. VIP units equipped with Melt- Manager Plus controls include full-color LCD screen with a touch-sensitive interface |
| |
| Optional remote control panels are available for VIP units |

 |
Automatic Full-Power Response |
|
|
 |
Automatic full power response from cold charge to fully molten melts more metal per kWh and kVA for lower melting costs and greater productivity |
|
|
 |
Advanced rugged, semiconductors are designed with a 100% safety factor to ensure long service life |
|
|
 |
Built-in protection from damage caused by electrical shorts |
|
|
 |
Primary or secondary furnace isolation systems provide double protection with an isolation transformer and ground leak detector system |
|
|
 |
Air-cooled, husky copper bus bars, in comparison to water-cooled copper tubing, put power into the melt, not in the water system |
|
|
 |
A network of capacitor protection systems eliminates costly downtime |
|
|
 |
An ultra-fast-acting AC Interrupter and an Over-Voltage Protection Circuit provide the ultimate system protection. Smaller units are protected by a current limiting reactor and high-speed circuit breaker |
|
|
 |
Door-within-a-door Design |
|
|
| Door-within-a-door protects control circuitry from higher voltage areas while circulating air keeps compartment clean and cool, dramatically increasing circuit board life |
|
|
 |
De-Ionized Water Cooling |
|
|
| Standard VIP units are configured for connection to new or existing external de-ionized (DI) water cooling systems or to available DI water cooling modules that can be attached to the ends of the units for ease of maintenance access |
