Options for temperature control or monitoring
|
|
Controller & programmers All furnace products feature three term (PID) control for accurate and stable temperature response and have the option of a choice of programmers (except ELF models) |
|
 | | - Carbolite 301
- A PID controller with a large display mounted behind a smooth wipe-clean membrane.
- Single ramp to setpoint facility Incorporates a process timer function.
- RS232 comms is available as an option at time of order.
- Made exclusively for Carbolite.
|
|
 | | - Eurotherm 3216P1
- Made exclusively for Carbolite by Eurotherm
- An advanced setpoint programming temperature controller with 8 segment pairs, each a ramp and a dwell.
- This configuration of a ramp followed by a dwell cannot be altered.
- Provides precise control with an advanced PID control algorithm giving stable straight-line control of the process.
- Power feedback is used to stabilise the output power and henced the controlled temperature against supply voltage fluctuations.
- The controller continually corrects for drift and this gives high stability and rapid response to process changes.
- Eurotherm 3216P5
- Like the Eurotherm 3216P1, except that 5 different programs may be stored for later retrieval.
- The programs cannot be linked.
- Made by Eurotherm for Carbolite.

|
 | | - Eurotherm 3508P1
- An advanced setpoint programming temperature controller with twenty segments, any of which may be a ramp, a step or a dwell.
- Housed in a quick release 1/8 din size measuring 48 x 96mm high.
- Features large numeric and text displays to provide additional information of current status to the user.
- Provides the same precise control as the 3216P1 model.
- Eurotherm 3508P10 & 3508P25
- Like the 3508P1, but has 10 programs with a total of 50 available segments and 25 programs of 100 respectively. For example, a single program of 50 segments could be created and the programs may be linked.

Overtemperature protection
|
|
 | | - Eurotherm 2132 or integrated into 301
- Recommended for use on any unit left unattended overnight
- Housed in a compact 1/32 din size measuring 24 x 48mm wide or integrated into the 201 control panel
- The additional control unit uses a separate thermocouple and operates a contactor to shut down the furnace in the event of the set temperature being exceeded
- The adjustability of the limiting temperature means that the system may be set to protect either the furnace itself, or at a lower temperature a valuable load inside

Calibration certificates
- Various calibration certificates can be provided at the time of the units' manufacture
- For the thermcouple, at three points of your choice
- The certificate is issued by an independent UCAS/NAMAS accredited laboratory, traceable to UK national standards
- For the controller, at three points of your choice
- The certificate is issued by the controller manufacturer
- For thermocouple and controller combined
- The certificate is issued by an independent UCAS/NAMAS accredited laboratory, traceable to UK national standards
