Variable transformers and Triac controllers for manual, 0-100% adjustable heater power.
Controls & Accessories
For voltage control, a variable transformer or solid-state Triac controller may be used. HTS/Amptek® power controllers give you smooth, manually adjustable output — from the LC-Z-120 and LC-Z-240 Triac controllers to bench-top Variac transformers.
Power controllers are the simple, rugged choice when an application calls for adjustable heat without closed-loop temperature sensing.
The Range
Solid-state LC-Z Triac controllers adjust heater power smoothly from 0% to 100% — a compact, dependable way to control voltage on heating tapes and small heaters.
Bench-top variable transformers deliver clean, manually adjustable output voltage. The classic laboratory solution for controlling heating tape output.
For voltage control without a temperature sensor, a variable transformer or solid-state Triac controller is the right tool. For precise closed-loop temperature control, step up to a PID controller.

Standard models are available in the store — see the Manual Power Controller product for Triac and Variac options and pricing.
Power controllers combine well with thermostats and thermal switches for simple systems that need both power adjustment and a temperature cutoff.
