Thanks to its extensive experience in process control and its ongoing research and development initiatives, Gefran provides a comprehensive range of solutions for applications requiring accurate and safe control of electric heating processes across multiple industries, with ampere ranges from 40A to 600A.
Gefran offers a wide portfolio of scalable products—both in performance and capability—designed for the precise management of all common types of electrical heating elements, including infrared lamps, linear resistors, SiC, MoSi₂, and graphite heaters. Its Power Controllers units are engineered for ease of use, fast configuration, and robust performance.
Beyond resistive load control, Gefran solutions also support advanced connectivity, remote diagnostics, predictive maintenance, and energy monitoring. These capabilities enable devices to communicate, analyse process conditions, and take autonomous actions based on real-time data—effectively transforming them into intelligent components within modern industrial systems.
Gefran GPC
Next-Generation Power Control for Demanding Non-Linear Heating Applications
The Gefran GPC is a next generation power controller designed to replaced traditional SCR stacks for demanding heating applications up to 600A.
It particularly excels in non-linear loads such as MoSi, & Silicon Carbide furnace elements where built-in power feedback maintains stable output as element resistance changes with temperature & time.
Integrated diagnostics detect heater breaks, overheated power terminals & load imbalance for proactive maintenance.
Ideal for high-temperature furnaces, IR ovens & thermal processing lines.
Gefran GRC
Compact Power, Maximum Flexibility
The GRC is Gefran’s modular, space-saving power controller for resistive loads, offering the same reliable control as the GPC but in a smaller, more flexible package. Unlike the GPC, which is ideal for fixed, high-current installations, the GRC excels where panel space is tight, wiring must be minimized, or modular expansion is needed.
It delivers precise PID control, fast SSR switching, and integrated protection features such as overload and short-circuit detection. With full connectivity and diagnostics, the GRC is perfect for applications ranging from small to medium heating zones, compact presses, and batch processes, giving you smart, reliable, and scalable control without compromise.
Gefran GFX4
Four Zones, Zero Compromise
The GFX4 combines four independent heating zones (up to 80kW) into a single, compact module—delivering PID control, solid-state power switching, and real-time load diagnostics in one space-saving package. Built-in protection features like broken-heater detection, partial-load alarms, and soft-start profiles ensure safe, reliable operation.
By consolidating multiple controllers, SSRs, fuses, and wiring, the GFX4 reduces cabinet footprint, simplifies panel layout, and speeds up installation, while Ethernet and fieldbus connectivity enable remote monitoring, predictive maintenance, and smarter process control.
Gefran GFX4IR
The All-in-One Powerhouse for Precision Infrared Heating Control
The GFXIR is designed specifically for infrared heaters (up to 80kW), delivering fast, stable temperature control with unmatched responsiveness. Its advanced PID algorithms and high-speed SSR outputs provide precise power delivery while protecting expensive IR elements. With built-in broken-lamp detection, load monitoring, and a compact modular design, the GFXIR reduces panel footprint and wiring.
Full connectivity and diagnostics enable predictive maintenance and remote monitoring, turning infrared heating into a smart, efficient, and reliable process for plastics, packaging, and heat-treatment applications.
