Description
The 1496 & 1498 Series Temperature Controllers are an economic solution to precision temperature control of extruders. With two DIN sizes and multiple output configurations, the controller is suitable for twin and single screw extruders, both heat only die and adapter zones, in addition to heat/cool for barrel zones. The 1496 (1/16 DIN format) & 1498 (1/8 DIN format) Series can also be used in an indicator-only mode, allowing one instrument to be used for all applications. With three default parameter sets for Indicator, heat and heat/cool modes, The 1496 & 1498 Series controllers offer the ultimate in flexibility for the control of industrial plastic extruders. The 1496 & 1498 Series was designed for fast configuration to match specific settings and default parameters of the extruder. Three alarm settings are standard and can be used for process high, process low, SP deviation, band, logical OR / AND, loop alarm for process control security. Process alarms have adjustable hysteresis.
