Flexibility is a feature of a new temperature monitor and controller which provides a solution for greenhouses, kilns, aquaculture and other applications
Flexibility is a feature of the new temperature monitor and controller announced by Amalgamated Instrument Company.
The new instrument provides a solution for greenhouses, kilns, aquaculture or, indeed, any application where temperature needs to be accurately measured and reliably controlled.
The instrument, the PM4-TCR, accepts 100 Ohm RTDs (Pt100), 1000 Ohm RTDs (Pt1000) or the common thermocouple types (B, E, J, K, N, R, S or T).
In addition, the product can be configured to accept a 4-20mA or mV (up to +/-200mV) input.
The instrument can operate as an accurate monitor, alarm, controller, signal conditioner or transmitter.
Flexible pushbutton calibration and programming makes the PM4-TCR a very powerful and effective tool in temperature control.
A wide range of display options is available and retransmission options to cover all applications can be installed.
The PM4-TCR is equipped with one fully configurable setpoint relay as standard and up to another 6 can be installed.
A very powerful option available is the isolated dual analog retransmission feature.
This offers the opportunity, for example, for a user to retransmit the signal to a remote display and have PI control on a heating element for environmental control.
The isolation between the dual outputs further enhances the product's flexibility.
Electrical isolation between power supply, input signal and retransmission eliminates grounding and common mode voltage problems.
