SERIES PD Controllers

SERIES PD Temperature and Process Controller

High Performance Temperature/Process Control with Web Server and EtherNet/IP™

Available in single or dual loop versions, the DIN-rail mounted SERIES PD controllers are ideally suited for a wide range of temperature and process control applications where the operator interface is supported over a network or the Internet or the temperature and process control must be integrated with other automation equipment including a programmable logic controller (PLC).

Support for EtherNet/IP™, Modbus® TCP and PCCC protocols ensure robust and easy-to-implement solutions for machine integration with a variety of automation vendors' products. The built-in web server supports key functions including operation, alarm monitoring and configuration directly in standard web browsers. The SERIES PD can also generate e-mail messages for remote alarm notification.
