Proven Technology
Chromalox have been manufacturing and installing Medium Voltage technology for over 10 years.
Your operations rely on consistent, accurate heating.
DirectConnect™ Converter Systems are designed to deliver exactly that, with technology built specifically for medium voltage electric heaters, and engineered to international safety standards.
You need power control you can depend on, and we’ve design this system to operate reliably, efficiently, and safely over the long term.
Designed for your process
Medium voltage heaters demand more than switching equipment. They require a system that can manage high‑energy loads safely, adjust power accurately, and integrate seamlessly with your process.
DirectConnect™ Converter Systems provide:
- Controlled, modulated power based on real‑time demand
- Protection for both equipment and personnel
- A fully engineered power path designed and manufactured by Chromalox for DirectConnect™ Medium Voltage heaters
- System monitoring and access to performance data through connection capability
- Compliance to IEC 62477, a specific standard for power converters used with electric heating
It's important to know, most alternatives use motor‑control assemblies built to IEC 62271. This is a standard not designed for electric heater power control. Our systems are specifically designed for, and are engineered in accordance with IEC 62477, helping you operate with greater confidence and clarity.
DirectConnect™ Converters
Chromalox DirectConnect™ systems bring a safe and reliable technical design for metal-sheathed electric process heating and power controls for heating systems operating at medium voltages (up to 7200 V). These patent-pending, DirectConnect™ medium voltage electric heating systems capture all the advantages of electric process heat while offering significant cost savings over low voltage, high amperage designs.
DirectConnect™ medium voltage electric systems slash installation and lifecycle costs while providing pollution-free operation for process heating. Aside from lower costs and clean operation, medium voltage electric heating offers advantages such as: lowered safety concerns (no open flames), stable electricity prices, minimal maintenance, and accurate temperature control.
