Temperature Controllers

  • Temperature controllers are devices that regulate the temperature of a system or process.
  • They use sensors to measure the temperature and adjust the heating or cooling accordingly.
  • Tempcon offers a range of temperature controllers, including single and dual loop controllers, 1/16 and 1/32 DIN controllers, and controllers specifically designed for wine production.
  • All controllers come with a manufacturer's warranty and technical support from Tempcon.

Temperature controllers are devices used to control the temperature of a system. They can be used in a variety of applications, including industrial automation, scientific research and laboratory use, and laboratory equipment.

There are several different types of temperature controllers available today. These include:

PID Temperature Controllers:

A PID (proportional-integral-derivative) controller is the most sophisticated type of controller. It uses feedback from a sensor to compare existing temperatures with set points and then adjusts the output accordingly to maintain the desired temperature. This type of controller is often used in manufacturing processes where precise control over temperatures is required. A PID controller uses an algorithm that calculates the difference between the desired set-point and actual temperature, compares this value to another value representing acceptable error limits (set by you), and then adjusts the output accordingly. This ensures that your system remains within a safe operating range.

On-Off Temperature Controllers:

An on-off controller switches the device on or off when it reaches its set point, so it doesn't use any sophisticated algorithms or control systems in order to achieve its goal. This type of controller is ideal for applications where precise control isn't necessary or desired (such as turning on a light when it gets dark).

Proportional Temperature Controllers:

A proportional controller increases or decreases power to meet demand while ensuring that temperatures stay within safe operating ranges. It does this by using feedback based on measured values rather than just switching between "on" and "off," which makes it more efficient than a simple on/off controller. Proportional temperature controllers are generally used when precise control is necessary (such as maintaining the temperature of an incubator at a specific set point). A proportional temperature controller can also be used to regulate temperatures within a specific range, and it's often used in HVAC systems.

Applications and Industries

Temperature controllers are used in a variety of applications, from simple temperature monitoring to complex automatic control systems.

Temperature controllers are used in many different industries, including food & beverage processing, pharmaceuticals, semiconductor manufacturing, electronic assembly and packaging, chemical processing, paper manufacturing and more.

In the food & beverage industry, temperature controllers are used to regulate temperatures during the pasteurization of milk and other dairy products. These devices have also found their way into breweries where they help maintain beer fermentation temperatures at just the right level for optimum production quality.

The pharmaceutical industry relies on temperature controllers to keep drug ingredients at optimal temperatures as they move through the production process. They're also used by hospitals as part of patient care equipment; patients who need special temperatures controlled while they're in critical care units will often have these devices attached directly to their beds or IV poles.

In semiconductor fabrication plants where high-tech electronics are produced on silicon wafers using expensive machinery with very specific requirements for temperature control, these devices play an important role in making sure everything runs smoothly without interruption due to improper maintenance procedures or accidental overheating due to human error (such as leaving doors open).
