Single and multi-zone ovens, furnaces, and kilns

Environmental chambers

PID, valve, ratio, and cascade control

Setpoint programming

High speed communications and PDSIO®

Available in 1/16, 1/8 and 1/4 DIN panel sizes, the 2400 series are high stability controllers with an extensive range of options. Either PID, on/off or motorized valve control can be configured, satisfying both electrical and gas heating applications. Dual PID settings, advanced ‘one shot’ and continuously adaptive tuning are available to optimize control performance.

The controllers employ universal inputs with Instant Accuracy™ and accept a range of plug-in modules for heating, cooling, analog retransmission, second process value input and remote setpoint. High speed Modbus® RTU, Profibus® DP, DeviceNet™, and Ei-Bisynch ASCII digital communications provide easy connection to PLC™, PC based supervisory control and data logging systems.

Multi-zone programming can be implemented using PDSIO® retransmission to deliver a master setpoint to one, two, or three client controllers, with holdback from any client if the temperature deviates from the setpoint by more than a set value. The 2408 and 2404 are available with Modbus® RTU, Ei-Bisynch ASCII, or DeviceNet™ digital communications. The 2408f and 2404f models are available with Modbus® or Profibus® DP digital communications.

One, four or 20 setpoint programs can be stored with 16 ramp-dwell segments and three or eight event outputs. Eliminate ammeters using PDSIO® current monitoring facility. Heater current may be displayed and open and short circuit faults detected.
