1 Introduction
1.1 Overview
Function
The DC1000 family of microprocessor-based controllers combine a high degree of
functionality and reliability in 4 different formats: 1/16 DIN, 1/8 DIN, 3/16 DIN, and 1/4
DIN.
With a typical accuracy of
± 0.5% of span, the DC1000 is an ideal controller for
regulating temperature and other process variables in a variety of applications including
dryers, semiconductor packaging & testing, plastic processing, packaging machinery,
painting & coating, and climatic chambers.
Easy to Configure
Two different configuration levels provide easy access to parameters. A 4-digit security
code prevents unauthorized changes. Parameters can also be hidden to the user to prevent
unauthorized configuration of the unit.
Various Control Algorithms
The DC1000 series of controllers provides several different algorithms:
• PID or ON/OFF Control
• Hear/Cool Algorithms with 2 different PID sets
• Motor Position Control without slidewire feedback
• Single Phase Control with/without zero crossover control
• Three Phase Control with/without zero crossover control
Mount Anywhere
The DC1000 controller family is industrial control equipment that must be panel
mounted. The wiring terminals must be enclosed within the panel. The DC1000 is
environmentally hardened and, when suitably enclosed, can be mounted virtually
anywhere in a plant or factory; on a wall, in a panel, or even on the process machine. It
withstands ambient temperature of up to 50°C (122°F).
