The SIPLUS HCS heating control systems: Industrial heating processes – maximum precision and efficiency
In manufacturing processes where temperature plays a crucial role, deviations of just a few degrees can cause enormous quality problems. To counteract adverse effects and keep the reject rate as low as possible, extremely precise, reliable and individual control of resistive loads is imperative.
The SIPLUS HCS heating control systems feature well-engineered technology and was developed for the control and switching of heating elements in industry, such as quartz, ceramic, flash, halogen and infrared emitting devices.
It is of modular design and can be adapted to suit specific requirements.
Three heating control systems are available:
- HCS716I - the compact solution for small to mid performance ranges
- HCS724I – the powerhouse
- HCS300I – the industrial heating controller
You can find a summary of these heating controllers in the PDF.
Highlights at a glance:
- SIPLUS HCS: the powerful, modular heating control system for controlling resistive loads
- High-precision, reliable system for centralized or distributed use
- Simple integration into existing automation systems such as SIMATIC and SIMOTION
- Flexible and simple, from configuring to operation
