Omron's new E5CSV temperature-controller succeeds the company’s popular E5CS series and while it shares many of the features of the latter, including easy setting up using DIP and rotary switches, a large seven-segment LED single line display and choice of ON/OFF or PID control with self-tuning, it offers much more. A new auto-tune function, for example, now makes setting up and optimisation easier than in the earlier series. The new series also features set-value protection to reduce chance of accidental or malicious tampering. Multiple-input selection possibilities (thermocouple/RTD) allow easy connection to a wide range of industry standard temperature-sensor types. Also the new 3.5 digit LED display means that the E5CSV can show a larger range than its predecessor, now extending up to 1999 °C/ °F.
The new product is IP66 protected and its depth has been reduced to 78 mm.
