DCM FEATURES
• Operates in a wide range of ambient conditions
• Single or dual pole solid state switching
• Nickel plated terminal construction
•
Black anodized aluminum heat sink capable of
dissipating the heat generated for up to a total of 180
Amps continuous
• Includes a ground/earth leakage circuit test loop
which allows the operator to conduct a functionality
test on each circuit
• The DCM module has the following control modes:
1. On-Off
2. On-Off with Soft-Start (solid state relays only)
3. Proportional (solid state relays only)
4. Ambient Proportional (solid state relays only)
5. Ambient Proportional - Mechanical
• Activates test functions including:
1. Ground/Earth Leakage Fault Circuit Test
2. Loss of Heater Current Test
• Activates programmed control function based on the
temperature values provided by up to 20 RTD's per
circuit
• Monitors ground/earth leakage and heater operating
current in heat tracing circuits
