Temperature controller delivers 10A of load current
The latest AC Volt Temperature Controller with RS-485 Serial Communication has been released by OVEN Industries, the 5R1-1404. The 5R1-1404 AC Volt Temperature Controller by OVEN Industries can conveniently be set in the field by a remote potentiometer or via a PC through the TTL level UART Communications port or by a Serial Communication RS485 connection.
This compact Temperature Controller design can deliver over 10A of load current via an onboard 25A Triac. A Triac is a three-electrode semiconductor device that is conductive in either direction when triggered by a positive or negative signal at the gate electrode.
The PC Board assembly is mounted on an aluminum metal plate allowing the unit to be installed in OEM units.
