PCT43 Electronic Console - issue 3
PCT43 Electronic Console
The PCT 43 is an electronic console that can be used to control the PCT40 (+PCT41/42) instead of a computer. It includes controls for the pumps, valves and heater, plus a display for the sensors. It incorporates a commercial PID controller, complete with RS232 interface. Other facilities include 4-20mA interfaces and selector switches to allow many of the different configurations to be implemented without using external jumper connections.
The PCT43 allows all of the PCT40 and PCT41 single loop configurations to be implemented without using a computer. Using this console also allows the sensor data to be logged and displayed on a computer (using the PCT40 USB interface), but with the control functions being implemented in the PCT43 hardware, rather than the computer software.
Facilities include:
> Use of a commercial PID controller
> Simple interfacing to other PLC and/or PID controllers
> Use of 4-20mA interfaces .Use of serial communications (RS232) in a
control system
> Simple SCADA demonstration (requires PC)
