Watlow's Series C family of basic temperature con-
trollers* provide an economical controller solution for
applications where simple on/off control is needed.
These controllers are available with or without an
operator interface and can be ordered in square 1/8th
DIN panel mount, din rail mount, open board or pot-
ted module design configurations. Push-on, quick con-
nect spade terminal or removable screw clamp style
terminal block ordering options provide the electrical
connections.
The microprocessor design platform provides im-
provements in the performance, repeatability, and
accuracy offered by Watlow's current line of basic tem-
perature control products.
The Series CV includes an operator interface to al-
low viewing and selection of the control set point. A
red four-character, seven-segment LED displays the set
point. It is also available with a push-to-show process
option. The set point selection is made with a continu-
ous turn, velocity-sensitive rotary encoder. Set point
range temperature values are customer definable in
the product configuration part number.
The Series CF offers fixed control points. These
units are supplied without an operator interface. Oper-
ating set point temperature values are customer defin-
able in the product configuration part number.
The Series TM is a temperature indicator only ver-
sion. It is available in DIN rail or panel mount configu-
rations.
The features and performance of these products
make them ideally suited for a wide range of industrial
control applications in the food preparation, industrial
machinery, packaging and plastic markets.
Watlow's Series C and TM controllers include in-
dustry-leading service, support and a 3-year warranty.
*Also available in an FM-approved limit version.
