2000W Adjustable Silicon Controlled Regulator – Guide
Main Features
The 2000W Adjustable Silicon Controlled Regulator is a high voltage regulator with a bi-directional controllable silicon rectifier.
The regulator can handle large loads, provided the power is under 2,000W.

Operating Instructions
- Rotate the Min Voltage Adjust pot to max value by rotating it fully clockwise.
- Rotate the Output Voltage Adjust pot to max value by rotating it fully clockwise.
- Insert a 220VAC power source line on the Input terminals.
- Insert your AC load (such as a light bulb, electric motor, or heater) on the Output terminals.
- Your load should work by now. Your next step is to adjust the minimum rms value until your load shuts off (such as when a lightbulb turns totally off).
- Adjust the Output Voltage Adjust the the pot to a minimum by turning it counter-clockwise. Depending on your load, you may see it not fully turning off at this point.
- With the adjustment made above, adjust the Min Value pot counter-clockwise until your load turns off. This will be your minimum value setting for this load.
- You can now vary your load’s minimum and maximum rms power through the Output Voltage Adjust pot.
