Ben,
	For information, service or questions on the halmar drive you have I
suggest you call:
 Robicon.
 500 Hunt Valley Rd
New Kensington, PA 15068-7066
(724) 339-9500
This company bought out halmar. At the plant where I work we have a hip
furnace for sintering carbide that utilizes halmar drives and this company
has provided parts and technical support. They are located not too far from
you either.

Regards,
Ken Perry

Hi all,
   I found a thyristor power controller made by halmar electronics in the
trash yesterday, and I was wondering if it could be used for current
limiting.. it's rated at 240VAC (single phase) 70amps.. it's got a current
transformer that provides feed back to the trigger circuitry to allow for
current limiting (At least I think that's what it's for.. )

The model number is: PA1-2470AD
Serial #: 7927999

There are 3 main terminals.. a pair labeled 'x2' and 'L2' and another 2
labled "x1" and "L1". x2 and L2 are common.. X1 goes through the current
transformer, through the SCR's and out to L1. Does anyone know where I
might be able to find out some information on this thing? Thanks for any
help...
