Simple 1000 watt Heater Controller Circuit

Last Updated on January 10, 2018 by Admin Leave a Comment

In this post we investigate a very simple triac diac controlled very reliable heater controller circuit.

In in an attempt to come up with a light dimmer on your own, you may comply with this 1000 watt heater controller circuit diagram:

Simple 1000 watt Heater Controller Circuit

Installating the drive (1000W max)

The electrical diagram of the inverter is demonstrated below:

Heater Controller Part Specifications:

R1: 3.9kOhms / 0.25Watt. Minimum value for restricting possible current peaks on the heater and the diac. You can pick 3.3k or 4.7k with no issues
P1: 470kOhms of choice. Perhaps 1MOhm ,. It requires minimal 470k if not even on the maximum value, the flambeau will invariably sparkle just a little.
C1: 100nF (unpolarized). The voltage throughout its terminals cannot surpass 35V peak. You can select a 63V or 100V model.

Diac: 32V, reference DB3 for instance. There exists just one recognized design.
Triac: it is a model 1000V bare minimum. The current maintained the triac might be equal to two times the current in the bulb for garnering a perimeter. The triac has to be installed on a little heatsink for 100W and more.

A BTA10-400 supports 10A and can take a load up to 1000W (4.3A on 230V).

Triac clamps: A1 (anode 1), A2 (anode 2), G (trigger)

Warning: this controller module is directly coupled to the mains supply! This tend to be hazardous to human life. Even if the set up looks simple, be mindful!

About Admin

Hey friends, Thanks a bunch for stopping by this site! I am an engineer with a Bachelor of Engineering in Electronics and Telecommunication. One of my passions is gathering information from all sorts of electronics books and tutorials. I then take that information and compile it into a language that is super easy to understand. My goal is to make those complex electronics circuit concepts and technical terms much more accessible for all the new and budding electronics engineers out there. I can also design customized circuit diagrams as required by the users.
If you have any questions related to this field, please do not hesitate to drop a comment! I am always here and ready to help you out with any queries you might have. I cannot wait to hear from you!
