OVERVIEW
The UDC 1000 and UDC 1500 are microprocessor-based 1/16 DIN and 1/8 DIN controllers which combine a high degree of functionality and reliability at low cost.
They are fully dedicated to monitor and control temperatures, pressures and levels in a wide range of applications such as the plastics and food industries, furnaces, packaging and environmental chambers. The large and easy-to-read dual 4-digit display and tactile keypad make the UDC 1000 and UDC 1500 easy to configure and use. Their outstanding flexibility enables you to configure any unit for any application and change it if required.
FEATURES
Dual display
Two 4-digit displays with 7 LED segments, each configurable for:
• PV and SP (non adjustable)
• PV and SP (adjustable)
• PV and Ramping SP
• PV only
Easy to configure
Two different configuration levels (configuration mode and set-up mode) provide easy access to parameters. A
4-digit security code prevents unauthorized changes.
Moisture resistant front-face Meets NEMA 3 / IP65 front-face protection against dust and water.
Universal input
Accepts seven different types of thermocouples, RTDs, current and volt linear inputs. All inputs are configurable
as standard.
Universal power supply
The UDC 1000 and UDC 1500 can operate on any line voltage from 90 Vac
to 264 Vac at 50/60 Hz continuously. A 24/48 Vac/dc model is available as an option.
Easy output selection and upgrade
With only two basic modules (current and relay output) and plug-in options, you can configure the controller as you want for a wide range of applications.
Up to three outputs
The UDC 1000 and UDC 1500 provide up to three outputs for time and current proportioning, duplex mode (heat/cool), PV or SP retransmission, and alarms.
Alarm strategy
Two soft alarms on PV, deviation high/low/absolute. A special loop alarm is also provided to detect faults in the
control loop by continuously analyzing the PV response to the control output.
Alarm inhibit is available on power up and setpoint switching.
Manual/Automatic mode
Manual control (via bumpless transfer) is enabled by simply pressing the frontface AUTO/MAN key. The “SET” LED flashes and the output power is displayed on the lower display. Output can be adjusted with the upper and
lower keys.
Pre-tuning and self-tuning
strategy
Pre-tuning is used to set up the PID parameters close to the optimum values which might be used by the self-tuning algorithm to subsequently optimize the tuning parameters.
Limit controller
Packaged in 1/16 DIN, the UDC 1000 limit controller is designed to provide a safety cut-out and optional alarms for
use in a wide variety of applications.
