Understanding your needs through applications expertise |
|
During the past thirty years Eurotherm
has earned an international reputation for premium
quality, ‘fit for purpose’ products and systems, derived
from an exceptionally high understanding of industrial
applications and process requirements.
Each of the solutions we provide is drawn from a
comprehensive family of configurable process control
instrumentation, data management systems and scaleable
automation solutions. These extend from input
conditioning modules, power controllers and simple
single loop controllers, to multi-loop fully
configurable controllers and integrated distributed
process control systems (DCS). Supported by an extensive
range of data acquisition and web enabled data
management units, and established chart recorders.
The “Eurotherm Difference”, however, is much more than
just superior products. We embrace the ethics of care
and support for our customers, so that you, our
customer, can benefit from the experience that can only
come from the worlds leader in control and measurement
instrumentation. When you need ongoing support, our
engineers can offer immediate technical advice covering
application, product or process issues. |

Plastics
Key application areas include:
|
 |
The plastics
industry needs special solutions, from simple, low
cost temperature and pressure control, to highly
complex, fully integrated multi-zone systems. We are
equally at home at either end of this spectrum, and
can provide cost-effective solutions whatever the
production requirement. Our simple temperature
controllers offer stable, reliable and accurate
performance at low cost, but we can also provide
complex systems involving multi-zone and sequenced
operation, equipment diagnostics to minimize down
time, clear graphical touch-screen operator
interfaces and open system communications with other
systems. |

|
Boiler Control
Key application areas include:
|
Designed to maximize boiler efficiency, minimize
fuel consumption and reduce emissions, our control
and monitoring solutions function to PM5 and PM60
standards, ensuring that all functions are performed
to the highest levels. They also include a number of
advanced functions, such as the ability to
communicate over Ethernet based networks, allow
steam data to be measured around the whole site |
|
Environmental testing &
monitoring Key application areas
include:
|
 |
OEMs
serving the environmental sectors need to be assured
of high accuracies, consistent repeatability, high
reliability and equipment flexibility. That’s why
our systems are widely specified for complex
applications such as multi-function climatic test
chambers. And built-in ability to encrypt and
securely store process data for traceability and
verification purposes, means that critical test and
monitoring applications can be supported by secure
archive data. |
|
Food and beverages
Key application areas include:
|
Eurotherm systems are widely used, including
integrated control and monitoring of automated
production and storage processes, dairy production
and brewing. We offer a spectrum of flexible control
strategies to effectively manage different
production processes. Key areas of expertise include
ratio/color/moisture control, cascade control for
steam pasteurizers and tracking and traceability to
FDA Standards. |
|
Glass Key
application areas include:
|
 |
Our experience
covers the control and monitoring of float glass,
blown container/product, glass fiber, plate glass,
crystal and ribbon/tubing lines. Based on this
experience we offer exceptionally cost-effective
solutions involving the hot and cold end, including
batch, furnace, distributor, fore hearth, mandrel,
Lehr, annealing, bushings and utilities plant areas. |
|
Power Generation
Key application areas include:
|
We
supply a wide spectrum of systems and products to
make the business of power generation more
efficient, easier, cleaner and more reliable.
Control room and plant room equipment is simple and
clear to use, with open communications to allow
integration with other equipment. Such solutions
often include high integrity alarms with report
printing and data archiving, as well as facilities
for remote operation over Ethernet links. |
|
Water Key
application areas include:
|
 |
Exceptional reliability, excellent accuracy, and
remote working capabilities are all readily
available with Eurotherm solutions. They include the
ability to integrate with PLC based systems, secure
logging of control data, remote monitoring using
Modems and radio links, and on-board logging to
allow dial up archiving instead of being
continuously on line. |
|
Semiconductor
fabrication Key application areas
include:
|
Our
systems offer outstanding accuracy when measuring
process parameters, and offer high stability inputs
for good long term control of the process and
repeatability. Built-in ability to communicate
process values remotely to management information
systems also ensures higher levels of management
control, resulting in better yields and product
quality. |
|
Metals Key
application areas include:
|
|
Eurotherm control and monitoring solutions cover
applications as diverse as gas burner control,
coking plant, sinter strands, blast furnaces
control, continuous casting, galvanizing and
aluminizing, coatings and plant energy control. They
offer increased process efficiencies, improved
product quality, minimized emissions and improved
levels of plant safety. Management information is
maximized through open networking of control & data
acquisition functions, allowing full integration
with other systems |
