Modular Temperature Controller
EJ1
In-panel Temperature Controller with Flexible
Modular Design and Wide Integration with
Host Devices
• The compact modular structure enables construction of temperature
systems optimally suited to the application.
• Connection can be made to a Programmable Controller without any
programming required, reducing the number of steps required in ladder
programming design.
• One fully universal-input Unit includes a thermocouple, platinum-
resistance thermometer, and analog input for easy selection and reduced
inventory requirements.
• Connect directly to the G3ZA Multi-channel Power Controller using
optimum cycle control for high-accuracy regulation with minimal noise.
• Autotuning (AT) can be used for independent heating/cooling PID control.
• Self-tuning (ST) can be used to calculate the PID constants with the step
response method.
• Up to 16 Temperature Controllers can be connected to a single
DeviceNet Communications Unit.
Ordering Information
Temperature Controller
Standard Control Models
*1. An End Unit is always required for connection to a Basic Unit or an HFU. An HFU cannot operate without a Basic Unit. External communications cannot be performed when using a Basic
Unit only.
*2. For heating/cooling control applications, control outputs 3 and 4 on the 2-point models are used for the cooling or heating control outputs.
On the 4-point models, heating/cooling control is performed for the two input points.
*3. When using the heater burnout alarm, purchase a Current Transformer (E54-CT1 or E54-CT3) separately.
Functional Upgrades
Refer to page 17 for details.
Upgrade functions are supported by the indicated version ("V1.1" or "V1.2") or a higher version of the software.
Supports DeviceNet Communications.
