BTU Increases PYRAMAX Capabilities with WINCON 5.0 Control System Software

Besides Windows 7 compatibility, many new features are included in WINCON 5.0 including dual process capabilities, maintenance manager and OPC functions. Dual process capabilities increases the functionality of PYRAMAX dual lane dual speed systems, allowing speed and rail set point changes on one lane while the other lane continues to process product maximizing throughput. Equipment maintenance reminders are provided through the maintenance manager function, providing customers a default maintenance plan or allowing them to use their own. The OPC function is an alternative to GEM Host and provides a way for customers to extract data from the system using OPC clients.

WINCON 5.0 will be available on all new BTU systems and is available for upgrade on most systems in the field.
