Information About PM8B2EK-ARFJADA
The PM8B2EK-ARFJADA is a vertically mounted 1/8 DIN controller within Watlow’s EZ-ZONE PM family. Its primary-function code specifies a universal sensor input, ramp-and-soak profiling, and a battery-backed real-time clock. The auxiliary universal input accommodates an additional compatible measurement signal for functions such as remote setpoint operation or sensor backup. Its output configuration combines mechanical relay, solid-state relay, and universal process hardware for connection to different control devices.
Key Features:
- Adaptive PID Regulation: Uses TRU-TUNE+ technology to adjust control behavior as process conditions change.
- Ramp-and-Soak Programming: Supports programmed setpoint transitions and holding periods for thermal processes.
- Battery-Backed Clock: Includes a real-time clock associated with the profiling configuration.
- Two Measurement Inputs: Combines a primary universal input with an auxiliary universal input.
- Mixed Switching Outputs: Provides a 5 A Form C relay, a 0.5 A Form A solid-state relay, and a 5 A Form A relay.
- Universal Process Output: Includes an analog output for compatible external control or retransmission equipment.
- Four Alarm Functions: Supports configurable alarm conditions for process supervision.
- Digital Input/Output Points: Includes two digital I/O points with the 100–240 VAC power configuration.
The PM8B2EK-ARFJADA delivers the reliability and precision required for programmed thermal processing and industrial temperature supervision.
