16T 1/16 DIN PID Autotune Controller with Thermocouple Or RTD Temperature Input

Overview

The Athena Legacy 16 is a 1/16 DIN panel mounted, auto-tuning controller that can be used for precise control of a single temperature loop with two independent outputs. The controller accepts J, K, T, E, N, R and S Type Thermocouple, or PT100 Platinum 2-wire and 3-wire, 100 ohms at 0°C, (DIN curve standard 0.00385) RTD input. RS-232 or RS-485 communications are available, and two digital LED displays provide visual indication of various controller functions.
