Omron Temperature Controls Product Details

• Bag Sealing
  

In sealing applications speed of recovery is very important. Each time the sealing jaws close heat is drawn away into the product. The ability of the E5_C to read and react to any drop in temperature means that the quality of the seal is maintained while operating at high or low speeds. In case of alarm or malfunction the bright blinking display is warning the operator instantly so he can carry out counter measures.

• Harsh Environments
  

Control products can be subjected to harsh environments where they can be splashed during the process or covered in dust or get warm through their location. The E5_C, E5CSV, H7CX, H5CX and K3HB all feature a NEMA4X (IP66 equivalent) front panels so are suitable for the use in these applications, also the low profile fascia means that they are less prominent in the front of the panel and so less likely to become dirty.

• Oven Controls

External influences can cause the temperature to deviate from the required set value. With the E5_C it is possible to program the level at which the display starts blinking. Alarm options include deviation from set point, where if the set point is changing the alarm moves with it. Absolute alarms where they are referenced to 0, standby so the alarms will not be active during the set point has been reached. Latching which means that once triggered they can only be deactivated by removing power. This is ideal for remote or unmanned processes, as the alarm will remain until the machinery is next visited.‍

• Baking oven
  

In many applications it is important to control the speed of approach to set point as well as maintain it at a preset time oncereached. This rate of rise control helps to prevent over cooking of the outside of the product. However multistage control isnot normally required. The E5_C contains a simple two stage function, controlling the rise to set point and also the sinking oftemperature versus time can be programmed.

• Faster input sampling and control period

This gives faster, more precise heater control in rapidly changing, disturbance-sensitive applications. With a sampling periodtime of only 50ms any quick changing processes can be reliably regulated.

• Process Value blinking display

This provides crystal-clear process status, even from a distance and without the need for interpreting the values. When one ofthe heaters is not at set-point the Process Value can start blinking to alert any member of staff (detecting a bad sealing at anearly stage, for example).Loop break alarm and sensor break alarm (with forced MV option)In plastics production the tool used to make the product is changed quite often. Frequent reconnecting of the sensor or heatercan result in a wire break (a broken thermocouple, for example). These alarms quickly detect such problems in the process.

• Basic (2-step) programmer
  

In many thermal processes (food, brick, pottery etc.) a small element of timing is required. This feature enables you to ramp upto a set-point and set the dwell time period. At the end of this time, the process stops or continues with an indication alarm toalert the operator. With this feature, a fixed minimum or maximum curing/baking time is assured in a smooth, controlled way. Alternatively you can set different steepness for the ramp-down period, e.g. allowing a soft decrease of temperature to avoidstructural cracks of the heat treated object.

• Easy to connect, set-up and operate

The E5_C series can be easily connected, set-up and operated in only a few steps using the instrument’s 5 front keys. OurCX-Thermo software and useful navigation assistant for intuitive settings is allowing a very quick parameter setting, easierdevice adjustment and simpler maintenance.

• Push-In Plus Technology brings value to control panel

Push-In Plus termination allows E5CC-B and E5EC-B units to be mounted closer together as wire termination direction iscoming from the back of the controller rather than the side. This enables panel builders to reduce panel size if needed. Thisresults in greater efficiency from design to assembly, leading to lower internal costs for panel builders, end users and OEMs.
