3204, 3208, 32h8, 3216 Temperature/ Process Controller

Accuracy and repeatability

Process input is fast and accurate, with exceptional thermal stability, enabling precise and consistent control over long periods without calibration drift.

Recalibration and user calibration correction functions are available to further improve accuracy.

The industry-leading Eurotherm PID algorithm delivers fast responding and repeatable control and has been enhanced in the EPC3000 series to further reduce overshoot.

Fast ramp-up to operating temperature and low oscillation help improve yield. PID settings can be adjusted to specific process regions, delivering optimum performance.

Connectivity and cybersecurity

The EPC3000 controller range features Ethernet as standard and is the first Eurotherm controller to be designed and certified to meet the stringent cybersecurity requirements of Achilles® Communications Robustness Testing Level 1. Ethernet communications are supported via a standard RJ45 connector, enabling fast access and diagnostic information, as well as connectivity to external PLCs, SCADA systems and IIoT technologies.

Modbus RTU serial communication is also supported.

A free PC-based backup and configuration tool uses a USB connection to power the instrument for convenient desktop configuration.

EPC3000 FM-function

The Factory Mutual approved limit function can be used “out of the box” as standalone high or low limits, or soft wiring and I/O can be added to combine PID control and limit functions into a single panel mount device.
