16A Series Temperature / Process Control

The 16A Series temperature / process controls set a new standard in 1/16 DIN power, flexibility, and value. This family of controls offers complete interchangability with different levels of features.

STANDARD FEATURES:

  • Self-Tune
  • Fuzzy logic
  • Universal input
  • Isolated outputs
  • Loop break protection
  • Peak / Valley indication
  • Percent output indication
  • Illuminated keypad
  • Four password protected security levels
  • 16 segment Ramp / Soak function (16A3)

The 16A offers universal input (10 thermocouple types, 4 RTD types, voltage, and current), single or dual set point, alarm (optional), Fuzzy Logic, Self-tune, Peak / Valley indication, Percent Output indication, and Heater Break protection.

The 16A3 adds to this impressive list, Auto / Manual capability, and 16 Segment Ramp and Soak with adjustable time base.

Options for the 16A2 and 16A3 include Process Output Retransmission (Voltage or Current), Remote Analog Set Point (Voltage, Current, Resistance), RS-232 Serial Communiction, RS-485 Serial Communication, and 4-Stage Set Point.

Designed and built in the USA, the 16A family of controls offer the highest levels of features, function, and quality available today.

Scalable Units from -1999 to +9999

Notes:
1.
These Input Types can be set for 0.1 deg. display. If temperature goes above 999.9 deg. or less than -199.9 deg. the display will return to whole degree resolution.

2. The 0 to 20 mADC, 4 to 20 mADC, 0 to 10 VDC, 2 to 10 VDC, and -10 to +10 mVDC inputs are fully scalable from a minimum of 100 counts span placed anywhere within the range of -1999 to +9999. Decimal point position is adjustable from the zero place (9999), tenths (999.9), hundredths (99.99), thousanths (9.999), or ten thousandths (.9999).
