GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Model T16 Controller accepts signals from a variety of temperature
sensors (thermocouple or RTD), while the Model P16 Controller accepts either a
0 to 10 VDC or 0/4 to 20 mA DC input signal. Both controllers can provide an
accurate output control signal (time proportional or DC Analog Output) to
maintain a process at a setpoint value. Dual 4-digit displays allow viewing of the
process/temperature and setpoint simultaneously. Front panel indicators inform
the operator of the controller and output status. The comprehensive programming
allows these controllers to meet a wide variety of application requirements.
MAIN CONTROL
The controller operates in the PID Control Mode for both heating and
cooling, with on-demand auto-tune, that establishes the tuning constants. The
PID tuning constants may be fine-tuned through the front panel and then locked
out from further modification. The controller employs a unique overshoot
suppression feature, that allows the quickest response without excessive
overshoot. Switching to Manual Mode provides the operator direct control of the
output. The controller may also be programmed to operate in On/Off mode with
adjustable hysteresis.
ALARMS
Optional alarm(s) can be configured independently for absolute high or low
acting with balanced or unbalanced hysteresis. They can also be configured for
deviation and band alarm. In these modes, the alarm trigger values track the
setpoint value. Adjustable alarm hysteresis can be used for delaying output
response. The alarms can be programmed for Automatic or Latching operation.
A selectable standby feature suppresses the alarm during power-up until the
temperature stabilizes outside the alarm region.
ANALOG OUTPUT OPTION
The optional DC Analog Output (10 V or 20 mA) can be configured and
scaled for control or re-transmission purposes. The programmable output update
time reduces valve or actuator activity.
PC PROGRAMMING KIT
The optional TP16KIT contains a programming module with a 9 pin RS232
connector, cable and Crimson, a Windows® based configuration software. The
software allows downloading, uploading and storage of T16 and P16 program
files. All controllers have a communications port that allows configuration by
PC even without controller power connected. Controller calibration is also
possible using the software when the proper calibration equipment and
controller power is connected.
CONSTRUCTION
The controller is constructed of a lightweight, high impact, black plastic
textured case and bezel with a clear display window. The front panel meets
NEMA 4X/IP65 specifications when properly installed. In applications that do
not require protection to NEMA 4X, multiple controllers can be stacked
horizontally or vertically. Modern surface-mount technology, extensive testing,
plus high immunity to noise interference makes the controller extremely reliable
in industrial environments.
SAFETY SUMMARY
All safety related regulations, local codes and instructions that appear in the
manual or on equipment must be observed to ensure personal safety and to
prevent damage to either the instrument or equipment connected to it. If
equipment is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, the protection
provided by the equipment may be impaired.
Do not use the controller to directly command motors, valves, or other actuators
not equipped with safeguards. To do so can be potentially harmful to persons or
equipment in the event of a fault to the controller. An independent and redundant
temperature limit indicator with alarm outputs is strongly recommended.
CAUTION: Risk of Danger.
Read complete instructions prior to
installation and operation of the unit.
CAUTION: Risk of electric shock.
