In co-operation with leading glass manufacturers, Eurotherm has developed its next generation intelligent electrical Power Management Control System, EPower. The EPower Management System is based on a Control (CPU) module, which is capable of controlling up to four thyristor power stacks in a "PLC-like" design layout. Up to 63 of these power management control modules can be integrated together via a fast network (CAN-bus) to become a large-scale intelligent power control system. This large-scale Intelligent Power Control System is further enhanced by Eurotherm's patented "Predictive Load Management" functionality (PLM). Such a system is able to manage effectively the varied requirements of both small and large scale heating installations from glass bending lines, tempering furnaces and autoclaves to complete Float Glass Bath & Annealing Lehr installations.
