small, red, strong, low-cost

PICO by eldec: Standard generators with one output and simple handling. Available in two housing sizes and numerous power classes. Just Heat!

PICO-S and PICO-L are low-priced generators in uncompromising eldec quality due to high standardisation of the components. PICO generators are offered as medium-frequency and high-frequency generators from 5 to 150 kW for inductive heating of a wide variety of workpieces and materials. They are extremely compact: e.g. the PICO-S generator (desktop housing size) is available with 30 KW MF - the best volume-to-power ratio on the market.
Thanks to the intuitive operator guidance, plug & play is truly reality. Continuous, jog or timer operation, regulation according to output, current, temperature and recipe memory management are standard features.
Occupational safety and high availability are important to us. That is why the generators are designed with electrical isolation of all external signal connections. Cooling water and heat sink temperatures as well as generator and inductor cooling water temperatures are continuously monitored.

Available frequency ranges:
MF: 8 - 20 kHz / 16 - 40 kHz
HF: 70 - 175 kHz / 140 - 350 kHz
