Watlow PD Series temperature controllers utilize embedded Ethernet technology to provide a convenient, economical means for setting up and viewing key process variables such as temperature, pressure, and humidity. The Watlow PD Series temperature controller also integrates control of these variables with programmable logic controllers (PLC) and other automation solutions. Available in single or dual loop versions, the DIN-rail mounted Watlow PD Series temperature controller offers up to four control/alarm outputs plus up to two digital/current transformer inputs.
Watlow PD Series temperature controllers are ideally suited for a wide range of process and temperature control applications where the operator interface is supported from a remote location or the temperature and process control must be integrated with other automation equipment including PLCs. For remote operation, the Watlow PD Series temperature controller serves web pages supporting key functions including operation, alarm monitoring and configuration directly to standard web browsers. Watlow PD Series temperature controllers can also generate e-mail messages for remote alarm notification. Support for EtherNet/IP™, Modbus™ TCP and PCCC protocols ensure robust and easy to implement solutions for machine integration with a variety of automation vendor's products.
Watlow PD Series temperature controllers are backed by a three-year warranty and are UL® 508, C-UL®, CSA, and CE approved.
Communications available to the Watlow PD Series Temperature Controllers include EtherNet/IP™ with explicit and implicit messages; PCCC protocol messages; Modbus™ TCP protocol for Ethernet communications; Embedded web pages for setup, monitoring, and trending; On-board data logging option; and E-mail notification of alarms and events.
