Description:
This universal temperature controller can be used as PID temperature controller, On/of temperature controller, Limit temperature controller, or simply as a thermometer/pyrometer with bright LED display and alarm output. It offers great value for its price. It is accurate, smart, and reliable. It is one of the smallest 1/32 DIN PID controller on the market. It is the perfect unit for both hobbyists to upgrade their brewer, incubator, espresso machine or glass kiln and for professionals in industrial use. Newly developed artificial intelligence enhanced PID algorithm and auto-tune function will control the temperature to one degree accuracy without complicated PID parameter fine tuning. This controller contains all the primary functions of an industrial grade PID controller but is also made very simple for the amateur user.
Recently, this controller has been upgraded with many new features. The cold junction compensation circuit has been improved for better accuracy when used with thermocouple sensor. A true on/off control mode is added. It is useful for controlling a refrigerator, motor, or solenoid valve that does not like to be switched too frequently. User can set the temperature and hysteresis band. It will work like a mechanical thermostat with better accuracy and tighter temperature range. Limit control function is added. It can be used for safety protection and special applications. When connected to a contactor, it can function as a latching relay. It will shut off the system if the temperature is out of control. The heater will not be turned on until reset manually. The limit control is also useful for applications that once the set temperature is reached, the system needs to be shut off automatically. e.g., ceramic kiln firing, meat cooking, and distillation. Except the limit control mode, all the other control modes can be set for either relay output or SSR control output by the user. When using the SSR output, the relay output can be used for alarm output. A splash proof gasket is added for wet environment and outdoor applications.
Thousands of these controllers have been sold for very board range of applications from medical device manufacturing to beer brewing. Our customer base includes control engineering expert and hobbyist with very basic electronic knowledge. Our feedback rating is a good indication about the success rate of their projects. Please contact seller if you are not sure whether this controller will work for your application.
Note 1: This controller is different than the look-alike controllers listed by the other ebay sellers. They are the copies of our earlier model that was discontinued in 2007. Our controller offers more functions, better accuracy and better performances.
Note 2: This PID controller is NOT the same controller used in Auber coffee machine PID kits. For the owners of PID kits, please contact the seller for the replacement controllers.
