profiTEMP IM hot runner controller

This compact hot runner controller enables precise temperature control with a shortened heating phase thanks to a fast control algorithm. Tailored to the requirements of mould makers, the control unit for 12 control zones has other advantageous features:
- Small, handy and powerful hot runner control unit
- Clear, user-friendly touch screen user interface
- Short incorporation phase
- Can be used anywhere – user interface available in 15 languages
- Extremely compact, lightweight and portable

FUNCTIONS

PID algorithm optimised for the application
Automatic calculation of the control parameters (identification)
Each heating output 3450 W (15 A / 230 VAC)
7” touch screen, 15 selectable languages
All process information clearly displayed at a glance
Zone detail view including trend graph
Password-protected access for set-up technicians
Alarm overview
Temperature monitoring
Monitoring of the thermal sensor to detect sensor breakage, polarity reversal and short-circuiting
Display of heating currents and power levels of all zones
Display of heating currents and power levels per phase and for all zones of the controller
Energy meter
Heating current monitoring (tolerance, failure, short circuit)
Safety shutdown on detection of short-circuit triacs
Continuous leakage current measurement
Predictive detection of leakages in the mould (process monitoring)

Smart Power Limitation – exact limitation of power output in the event of mains connection overload
Fully automatic switchover to leading zone mode or manual mode in the event of a defect in the sensor circuit
Parallel switchable heating outputs in leading zone mode prevent downtime in the event of a defect in the sensor circuit
Temperature reduction (standby)
Boost mode (optionally with timer) for emptying the nozzle zones before production start
Zones may be grouped
Potential-free alarm contact (function configurable)
Possibility to save mould programs (5 directly in the control unit and any number on USB)
Free software updates – can be installed via USB
Heater fuses accessible and replaceable from the outside
Carrying handles for safe transport
Interfaces: Ethernet (for service purposes) for communication with the injection moulding machine

Heating variants and operating modes – SELECTABLE FOR EVERY ZONE

4 heating variants

Direct setpoint change
Start-up mode for drying out damp heaters
Automatic ramp for uniform heating of all zones
Relay heating for heating sequence of grouped zones

5 operation modes

Control to the specified temperature set point values
Manual mode for manual setting of the output value
Leading zone mode to use the output value of another zone
Monitoring – zone without heater to display and monitor the temperature
Display – zone without heater to display the temperature
