Thanks to the LC display with plain text that is provided as standard, configuration can be performed quickly and easily on the device. The menus are clearly and legibly structured, so that users rapidly become confident in handling the system, thus reducing initial setup times. Thanks to its new structure, a slim-size device is now available, with current ranges from 20 A to 250 A.
With molybdenum disilicide heating elements (MoSi2), the new “R
Control” function comes into effect. The heating elements are highly
sensitive, particularly in the upper temperature ranges, and this
function can be used to limit their output and thus their surface
temperature. This increases their service life and reduces operating
costs.
Numerous intelligent safety systems ensure that startup is easy and
uncomplicated. These include rotary-field detection (provided as
standard) and the detection of wiring errors, which are indicated over
the display. Fluctuations in the supply voltage can be quickly regulated
by subordinate controls U, U², I, I² and P control. This ensures a high
level of process safety.
Energy efficiency has to be constantly monitored throughout the process.
Both the freely configurable analog output and the optional Modbus RTU
485 and PROFIBUS DP interfaces are available for this.
All the important process values, messages and limit values can be
quickly, easily and individually adapted to a particular application, as
well as forwarded to a higher-level control system. The tried and
tested JUMO setup program is available for this, and ensures consistent
startup management.
Because there are such a variety of voltage variants, there is no need
for an additional power supply. The new device series has versions
ranging from 24 V AC to 500 V AC –20 %/+15 %.
