The 3508 offers much more than temperature control - advanced features and options make them capable of small machine control. They provide flexible I/O options to control and measure a multitude of processes - temperature, carbon potential, humidity, flow, pressure, level, viscosity, additive dosing and many more. Specialist function blocks, recipe selection, setpoint programmers, math, logic, timer functions and flexible communication options are just a few examples of what makes these instruments a key part of a total process solution.
With an emphasis on flexibility, 3500 controllers still maintain ease of use. A simple 'QuickStart' code is used to configure all the basic functions essential to controlling your process. This includes input sensor type, measurement range, control options and alarms - making 'Out of the Box' operation truly achievable. More advanced features are configured using a PC based graphical configuration tool - enabling users to pick function blocks from a library then connect them together using soft wiring.
The large, 5-digit display provides a clear and unambiguous indication of the process value. A four-line message centre provides custom or standard views of important information to the user, while vertical and horizontal bar graphs provide visual indication of the process at a glance.
OEM security enables a user to protect their intellectual property by preventing unauthorized cloning of configuration.
