Electrical Controls

C100

The C100 controller is used to control 24 VDC solenoid valves on dust collectors with compressed air cleaning. In its basic version, a maximum of 6 pilot valves can be connected to the device. By plugging in an extension card, 6 additional valve outputs can be added. Additionally, the C100 valve outputs can be extended by using VCU modules or Valve Control Units. VCU modules with 6 or 12 outputs are available and are connected to the Bus interface of the C100 controller. Once connected to the power supply, the C100 controller operates automatically and independently.

The C100 can operate with 2 different supply voltages:

• 230/115VAC (50-60Hz) supplied
• 24VDC supplied

C200

The C200 is equipped with the latest processor and data transfer technology to ensure easy, smart and functional operation. The Donaldson C200 series are solid-state products providing pressure drop measurement, digital display, and pressure drop control with an alarm function. Designed to provide accurate and dependable control of a pulse-cleaning timer, starting and stopping the cleaning process at the limits you choose.

This controller is already set up with default settings and can be used as a plug and play device. Please contact our Donaldson trained personnel for optimal alignment of the cleaning system with your specific application. Once connected to the power supply, the C200 controller operates automatically and independently. 

• Three cleaning options: differential pressure cleaning (DFF), down-time cleaning (DTC), and combined differential and down-time cleaning (ALL)
• Available as standard equipment on many Donaldson Torit collectors and Electrical Control Panels
• Solid-state electronics for reliability and long-term accuracy
• High, Low, and Alarm setpoints programmable from front panel
• User selected lockout feature to prevent unauthorized adjustment of setpoints 
• Accuracy ± 1% full scale
• Choice of units, inches water gauge or daPa (decaPascals)
• Jumper selected 115 or 230 VAC power
• No battery backup is required
• CE Compliant

Powerbox

Used with Donaldson Torit C200 and C300 series controllers, the Powerbox lets you automatically manage fan motor speed for your Donaldson Torit dust collector so that the fan is used only as much or as little as needed for optimum performance. The results are energy savings, longer filter life, and optimal collector performance.

• Increases filter life by maintaining constant design airflow and desired minimum transport velocity
• Diminishes dust accumulations in the duct associated with poor duct velocities by maintaining a constant duct velocity
• Reduces abrasion on filters and ducting generally caused by high transport velocities
• Reduces the fan motor's energy consumption by allowing the fan motor to operate at a lower RPM while also increasing the mechanical life of the fan
• Lowers the audible noise radiating from the fan housing and fan motor since the fan is running at less than full speed
• Reduces mechanical stress and improves fan reliability due to soft-start capabilities 
• Reduces line current peaks on electrical distribution systems, lowering energy costs
