PPC-2000 SERIES

The Watlow Anafaze PPC-2000 is apowerful, multi-loop programmable process control system. It combines easy-to-set up multi-loop process control and programmable logic control in one integrated package. Its modular design enables userstoselect a set of hardware and develop a logic control programbased on their specific control loop and logic application, making it idealfor OEMs.The PPC-2000 controls up to 48 PID loops and supports additional analog inputs for logic programming or monitoring. It accepts multiple sensor inputs including thermo- couples, RTDs, linear dc voltage or current inputs and counters. The base system has 46 digital I/O for temperature control or program- mable logic. Plug-in I/O modules expand the capacity of the base system. Options include modules for pulse inputs, current and voltage analog outputs, digital inputs for ac and dc signals and relay outputs. Two serial communication portssupport read/write access by a host computer and/or operator interface panel using Modbus™ RTU protocol.
