Single and Dual Loop Controller with Datalogger Pro-EC44

The Pro-EC44 has been designed to simplify user operation through an intuitive HMI combined with easy-to-use configuration and simulation software, Blue Control©. This allows the controller to be used by a variety of personnel without compromising the functionality available. Quick access to important product information is also facilitated with a front USB port. The Pro-EC44 controller is well suited to challenging applications such as: Plastics, Extrusion and Rubber, Industrial Ovens and Furnaces, Laboratory and Test Equipment, Environmental Chambers, Boiler and Steam Processes, Food and Beverage, Packaging. Controllers PRO96-1 and ProVU4 are not available anymore. The successor is Pro-EC44. We will help you choose the right part number for a replacement.

Pro-EC44 is a 1/4 DIN process engineering controller/profiler with advanced automation control technology capability and modular I/O options for temperature control systems. Front panel setup for simple or advanced control tasks is fast and easy, with a step by step configuration wizard saving working through several menus. Logical menu structure for intuitive navigation allows fast changes and updates in the settings also. Configuration files can be downloaded to a controller using a flash memory stick via the front USB port allowing for fast programming. Settings can also be read via the USB port to clone additional devices or configure a replacement. Datalog files can also be extracted locally via the USB for convenient access of process data.

The Pro-EC44 pages are formatted to show users important process information on a single page, minimising the steps to access data and settings. A colour change green/red LED backlight provides easily recognisable alarm indication to improve response times for corrective action. Single or dual loop capability in a single device, cascade, valve and ratio enhanced control with support features such as real time clock, timer, gain scheduling and profiler ensure Pro-EC44 has the flexibility for a process system needs. In addition datalogging, trending, USB, Ethernet options add more capability to this device. Direct access for programming is available via a top of controller connection port. The interface provides easy and fast access with Blue Control software.
