5 Application
5.1 Oven Control with Zone Temperature Recording
An Oven is designed to dry the products with 6 zones.The Zone Temperature is controlled by a
single temperature controller. The temperature of the diferent zones are recorded to ensure the
operation of different zones. Generally for this application one temperature controller and 6 channel
recorder are required. By using PR Series Recorder with PID Control card it can be achieved with
one device.
The oven required to dry the products at 500°C for 1 hour. All the 6 zones temperature needs to
be recorded. For this dwell timer of PID Control card needs to be used for control the oven
temperature and Analog inputs of Recorder needs to be connected with Thermocouple inputs from
all the zones. The system configuration is as below.
