Functions
The TST3 offers five types of setpoint adjustment.l Burst control:

is reduced by the value set on the potentiometer. Since the load is

Puls-width-modulated signal
Firing angle is set proportional to pulse-pause ratio of the applied
signaling voltage (5V, 5-10kHz).

Voltage output TST3 at 50%

The control of the output power is achieved by reducing nominal
voltage at the power output terminals T1 to T3. This can be provided
by two different principles wich can be preselected.

Phase-angle control:
A thyristor bridge is set by the remote control potentiometer so that
the thyristor switches the connected loads to the supply network in
every sinusoidal half-wave only when the selected voltage level is
reached. This produces a reduced rms voltage and therefore a small-
er power draw by the load. This type of power control is suitable for all
types of ohmic and inductive loads.
In three-wire systems (without a neutral conductor) the output power
can be infinitely regulated from around 20% to 100%; in four-wire sys-
tems (3~/N) it can be infinitely regulated from around 5% to 100%.
