The Watlow Control Console offers a complete con-
trol solution consisting of the temperature control(s),
thermocouple input(s), power-switching device(s) and
heater output(s), in a small package. Installation is
quick and easy; as few as three simple connections
and the console is ready for use in your application.
Each unit is supplied with a line cord, heater output
connector mates, thermocouple connector mates and
an on-off rocker switch. A solid-state relay is utilized
for fast, reliable switching of the load. The white,
powder-coated enclosure has vent openings on the
top and bottom for internal heat dissipation.
Control Console Architecture
This product comes in one, two or four zone configu-
rations. The power cord, your choice of heater output
connector(s), the thermocouple input connector(s)
and communications connector (if applicable) are
mounted in the rear of the enclosure. All remaining
components are inside the enclosure.
The console comes with 1/16 or 1/32 DIN Series SD
or Series 96 controller(s). A solid-state relay serves
as the output power-switching device and is powered
through the line cord.
