Temperature controllers for incubators, furnaces and environmental chambers

The Sanup Electrical Company has released the SDM range of temperature and process controllers which features universal inputs and a wide range of thermocouples, RTDs and linear DC signals. Outputs are universal in all but the 48 mm² model. Available outputs are relay contact, logic (for driving solid-state relays) and 4-20 mA. A full range of DIN panel sizes is offered, from 48 to 96 mm².

Alarm contacts are standard, as are transmitter power supplies in all models except the 48 mm² unit.

All SDM controllers can be configured as two-program, 12-step program controllers or the programs can be linked to give one 24-step program. The SDM temperature controllers can also be configured as a fixed setpoint controller. Manual percentage output operation is possible on the 72 mm², 48 x 96 mm and 96 mm² temperature controllers.

An optional RS485/MODBUS interface allows these controllers to be connected to most SCADA systems.

Typical controller applications include incubators, environmental chambers, high-temperature laboratory furnaces, timber drying kilns, plastic extruders, industrial kilns and furnaces, packaging equipment and product drying.
