Ipsen Breaks Down PID Tuning for Validating Heat-Treating Equipment
2015-06-22 12:31:08| Industrial Newsroom - All News for Today
CHERRY VALLEY, IL In the complex world of thermal processing, nothing is more important than validating ones equipment to ensure uniformity, reliability and repeatability. One of the first steps in the validation process is tuning the proportional-integral-derivative (PID) settings in the controller to ensure...

PID Controllers monitor multiple applications on one display.
2015-03-26 13:31:08| Industrial Newsroom - All News for Today
By inserting field-installable FlexCard™ modules, users can populate PAX®2C Proportional-Integral-Derivative Controllers in more than 150 configurations to monitor and control multiple application processes on single display. Process Input/Remote Setpoint Cards support input of 0/4–20 mA to enable cascade control loops where tighter control is required. Providing heater current input, Heater Current Monitor Cards can signal when heater or heater control devices have failed before damage occurs.
