    DIN-Rail-Mount Autotuning Temperature Controllers

    Image of ProductInUse. Front orientation. Temperature Controllers. DIN-Rail-Mount Autotuning Temperature Controllers.
    Mount these temperature controllers directly onto DIN rail for controlling systems with rapid, unpredictable, or complex temperature changes. They turn heating equipment on and off using a proportional-integral-derivative (PID) control algorithm to make fine adjustments, giving you the most precise and stable temperature control. All work similarly to proportional controllers but gather more variables to calculate the most effective way to return to the target temperature and avoid overshooting. They also have fuzzy logic to learn your system's behavior and compensate as needed. Use the autotuning function to have the controller cycle and identify the ideal PID variables for your system. These controllers read temperature with a highly sensitive thermocouple or RTD probe (both not included) in critical process applications. Since they reset automatically, they switch off and on again as the temperature fluctuates. Use the keypad to adjust the actuation point, reset point, and other settings.
    All meet American, Canadian, and European safety standards.
    Mechanical Relay Output
    Mechanical relay outputs actuate circuits directly. All are single pole, single throw (SPST) relays and turn one circuit from off to on (normally open).
    For Alarming and For Cooling—Those with cooling/alarm outputs can also be used to turn cooling equipment on or off at a specified temperature.
    For Alarming—Alarm outputs can be configured to actuate alarms or other simple devices.

    On/Off Temperature Controllers for Plug-in Heaters

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Temperature Controllers. On/Off Temperature Controllers for Plug-in Heaters, IP20, NEMA 1—DIN-Rail and Wall Mount.

    IP20, NEMA 1—DIN-Rail and

    Wall Mount

    Switch heaters on or off when your process reaches a certain temperature. Both these controllers and your heater will be powered by the same wall outlet. Place the probe into your process, plug the controller into an outlet, and plug your heater into the socket on the back of the controller’s plug. These simple temperature controllers deliver either full power or no power. They’re best used in systems where temperatures change slowly and you don’t need precise control.
    IP20 Enclosure Rating and NEMA 1 Enclosure Rating—IP20 and NEMA 1 rated controllers are best for indoor use. They keep dirt out and will stop objects about the size of a finger from coming into contact with a live circuit.
