With the PTC temperature controller it is possible to check PTC's from up to 8 channels.

With the motor temperature controller it is possible to check different temperature sensors (e.g. PTC,NTC,PT etc) from up to 8 channels in order to compare those resistance values with programmable thresholds. If a value is out of a hysteresis band (overtemperature), the hardware will transmit an alert message to a PC or any other controlling periphery.

It is possible to connect up to 31 temperature controller to the same RS485 bus in a TOKEN-RING mode. Therefore a hardware address is set with the onboard DIL switches. This means, you can monitor up to 248 channels. This hardware is especially designed to be used in automation systems that includes one or more AC or DC motors with integrated or externally fitted temperature sensors to monitor every motor temperature. The hardware handles many different analoge temperature sensor types, as it only reacts after triggering defined thresholds. Red and green LED's will indicate the state of operating mode for each channel.

As the hardware is controlled via RS485, it is necessary to use an USB-Converter for connecting to any PC. With a PC-Softare hysteresis bands can be set for every channel. If the temperature sensor type is known, the hardware is able to compute and transmit the current temperature.
