INTRODUCTION
1.1 Description
This device can be purchased as monitor (read process value only) or as
a controller.
• The i Series Strain and Process controllers can measure a wide variety of
DC voltage and current inputs for all common load cells, pressure
transducers and strain gauge type of transducer. It offers unparalleled
flexibility in process control. The voltage /current inputs are fully scaleable to
virtually all engineering units, with selectable decimal point, perfect for use
with pressure, flow or other process input.
• The process control can be achieved by using on/off or PID control strategy.
Control can be optimized with an Auto Tune feature. The controller offers a
ramp to set point with timed soak period before switching off the output.
• The i Series controller features a large, three color programmable display
with capability to change a color every time when Alarm is triggered. The
standard features include dual outputs with relay, SSR, DC pulse, analog
voltage or current, built-in excitation for transducers, selectable as
10V @ 60 mA or 5 V @ 40 mA. Analog output is fully scaleable and may be
configured as a proportional controller or retransmission to follow your
display. Universal power supply accepts 90 to 240. Low voltage power option
accepts 24 Vac or 12 to 36 Vdc.
• Options include programmable RS-232 or RS-485 serial communication and
ethernet with an embedded web server.
