Preface
The E5CN, E5CN-U, E5AN, E5EN, and E5GN are Digital Temperature Controllers. The E5CN and
E5CN-U are both compact temperature controllers, with the E5CN featuring screw terminal connec-
tions, and the E5CN-U featuring socket pin connections. The E5GN can be connected using screw ter-
minals or screwless clamp terminals. The main functions and characteristics of these Digital
Temperature Controllers are as follows:
• Any of the following types of input can be used: thermocouple, platinum
resistance thermometer, infrared sensor, analog voltage, or analog cur-
rent.
• Either standard or heating/cooling control can be performed.
• Both auto-tuning and self-tuning are supported.
• Event inputs can be used to switch set points (multi-SP function), switch
between RUN and STOP status, switch between automatic and manual
operation, start/reset the simple program function, and perform other
operations. (Event inputs are not applicable to the E5CN-U.)
• Heater burnout detection, heater short (HS) alarms, and heater overcur-
rent (OC) functions are supported. (Applicable to E5CN, E5AN, E5EN,
and E5GN models with heater burnout detection function.)
• Communications are supported. (Applicable to E5CN, E5AN, E5EN, and
E5GN models with communications.)
• User calibration of the sensor input is supported.
• The structure is waterproof (IP66). (Not applicable to the E5CN-U.)
• Conforms to UL, CSA, and IEC safety standards and EMC Directive.
• The PV display color can be switched to make process status easy to
understand at a glance.
This manual describes the E5CN, E5CN-U, E5AN, E5EN, and E5GN. Read this manual thoroughly
and be sure you understand it before attempting to use the Digital Temperature Controller and use the
Digital Temperature Controller correctly according to the information provided. Keep this manual in a
safe place for easy reference. Refer to the following manual for further information on communications:
