How a Modbus TCP/IP RS-485 temperature controller can fit into a Energy management system(EMS) in solar industrial ?EMS(Energy management system) is the brain of solar system for household, when the solar generates excessive power and that excessive power should be well perserved,  one of the approach woud be direct the excessive power to water heater. Here’s how a PID controller fits into and enhances a solar-powered EMS system. Basically when EMS sees extra power,  it will give command to Temperature controller via modbus TCP/IP and heat up water. PID-Based Control: EMS → Temperature Setpoint (°C) → PID Controller (as Intelligent Regulator) → Heater The PID controller is no longer just a dumb power valve; it becomes a smart, autonomous agent managing a thermal process, with the EMS acting as a supervisor that optimizes the agent's goals based on solar availability.   How the EMS & PID Controller Interact: Key S...

ON/OFF control mode is simplest form of automatic control mode, it's like a switch, either ON or either off. the rules is very simple, in a reverse control situation, when prorcess value is lower then the desirved, the output is fully on, when process value higher than the setting value, fully off. an analogy we often use is like driving the car from starting point to finishing line.In the situation of an ON/OFF control, you apply the full thrust and drive the car to the finishing line, and after the car cross the finishing line, you release the thrust and turn the engine off. the rule is very simple, the downside of this type of control mode is there will be significant overrun at the finishing line, it's impossible to stop on the finishing without overrun, in contrast, the PID control mode, the driver will observe carefully and calculate the distance and speed in relation to the finishing line, and gradually apply less thrust and maybe apply a little brake too to make sure the car st...

Ramp and soak controller are heavily used in Kiln industry for various application such as Heat Treatment industrial,Ceramics and Sintering industrial,Glass Manufacturing and Tempering,Chemical and Pharmaceutical Reactors,Semiconductor and Electronics Manufacturing, food processing etc. a perfect controlled ramp up and soak segments is crucial for these process. the process always starts out from ambinent temperature let's say 25 degree, for example , if you have a process like below:From Ambient temperature to set point 200 degree within 20 minutesAnd after temperature reach to 200 degree, the temperature will be held at 200 degree for 60 minutesIn field application, the tempeature can be somewhere high or low than 200 degree when 20 minutes elapsed. when this happens, the controller should not proceed to the soak segment cause the process value is way off the target value 200 degree, to solve this problem , our controller has a Wait function,  the temperature will go up fro...

Below are some of key factor you shall consider while choosing a correct transmitter for your application 1)The input of the transmitter, if you are end user and looking for a cost down version solution, you might want go with the transmitter with a fixed input such as type K thermocouple or PT100, in this case, we as factory can preset the input and range of you, the transmitter will be installed right way after you get it from us, no extra programming is needed, saves time and efforts for you.  If you are stockiest looking to build up some stocks in your disposal, then our universal input transmitter is an ideal choose. Transmitter compatible with both TC and RTd input, and programmable via PC and android device.   2)Output is another key factor to consider, in many cases, 4-20mA output will be the choice for output, but some of customer will need 0-10VDC output too, we can offer both, our TT-210 is 4-20mA output version, and TT-500 is 0-10Vdc output version   3)Some o...

Head-mount temperature transmitter is a device installed directly in the connection head of a temperature sensors, temperature sensor typically will be thermocouple or RTDs, the key feature of temperature transmitter is to convert small and raw signal from the sensor into analog signal like 4-20mA, the transmitter has various options such as isolated type,  Hart version,  Modbus RS-485 compatible version, below is an image on how it looks like and the way it is installed inside the connection head In many applications, the master device which receive the temperature signal often located at central control room or far away from the filed where the sensor installed, if the extension cable had been used, the signal will be affected by electrial noise and signal will suffer significant attenuation over long cable runs, therefore , by converting the weak signal into 4-20mA or other digital signal will minimizes the negative effects and saves cost too. as the extension cable is muc...

How to choose proper SCR power regulator according to your application ? SCR power regulator is heavily used in industrial application particularly heating application, to choose proper SCR, several key factors needs to be take into consideration.  1)first thing first, figure out your source whether it is single phase or three phase, the single phase SCR is for single phase source, 3 phase SCR is for 3 phase source, like 3 phase 4 wires, 3 phase 3 wires etc. if the load is single phase, the process is quite simple, make sure you select a SCR with the current rating 2 times higher of the actual load. for example, if you have a heater with 20 amps and 240Vac load, the proper SCR would be 40 amps and 240~480Vac load2)PIDMaxwell SCR power regulator only works for resistive load, make sure your load is resistive load like a heater, electric heater, infrared heater etc3)Identify your source, the source would be 3 phase 380V 4 wires source, like in China, or 3 phase 4 wire 400V in german...

ARAMP and Soak PID Controller is a specialized feedback control system designed to manage processes that require gradual changes (ramps) in a setpoint followed by stabilization periods (soaking). Unlike standard PID controllers that maintain a fixed setpoint, this controller dynamically adjusts the setpoint according to a predefined profile, ensuring smooth transitions between phases. Common in industries such as thermal processing, chemical manufacturing, and ceramics, it prevents system stress and improves process stability. Our MPU90 Series ramp and soak controller is a perfect choice. It has 0–25% FS accuracy and comes with PC software that records process values, setup values, and alarm events.   Key Features of a Good Ramp and Soak PID Controller: Accurate Setpoint Tracking: Accurately follows programmed ramp rates and soak durations, minimizing deviations even during dynamic changes. Smooth Transitions:Seamless changes between ramp and soak phases without abrupt outpu...

HART 7 is more than just a wireless protocol, our HART protocol temperature transmtiter TT-217 is HART 7 product, you can configure it by using our PC software or you can configure it by using standard HART communicator, the HART 7 standard applies to the full range of measurement, control, and automation systems products based on the HART Communication Protocol – whether wired or wireless. The WirelessHART capability is getting the most attention, but HART 7 provides many new capabilities beneficial to industry users in both wired and wireless products. Examples include: 1) Report by Exception—enables devices to push information to the control or asset management system without the system having to poll the device with a standard HART command. If there is a process or device status change, the device will automatically advise you.2) Time-Stamped Data—a valuable tool that adds a time stamp to process data readings sent to the host system which is helpful in evaluating...
