Dwyer Omega – CNI8D Series 1/8 DIN Horizontal and Vertical Dual Display PID Controllers
Product Code: CN18D
Manufacturer: Dwyer Omega
The OMEGA CNi8DH and CNi8DVare high-quality, highly accurate single loop autotune PID temperature and process controllers for 1/8 DIN(92 x 45 mm) horizontal or vertical panel cutouts. Both devices feature the same state-of-the-art technology, uncompromising accuracy, and quality backed by an extended5-year warranty.
The CNi8DH and CNi8DV are simple to configure and use, while providing tremendous versatility and a wealth of powerful features.
The CNi8DH and CNi8DV comes standard with your choice of2 control or alarm outputs in almost any combination: solid state relays rated at 0.5 A @ 120/240 VacForm “C” SPDT relays rated at3 A @ 120/240 Vac pulsed 10 Vdc output for use with an external SSR or analog output (0 to 10 Vdc or0 to 20 mA) selectable for control or retransmission of the process value.
The universal temperature and process instrument (CNi8 models)offer a selection of 10 thermocouple types as well as 2-, 3- or 4-wireRTDs, process voltage and current. The CNi8DH and CNi8DV are ideal controllers for use with transmitter sand amplified transducers. Built-in excitation is standard (24 Vdc@ 25 mA). The units handle0 to 20 mA process current and process voltage in 3 scales:0 to 100 mV, 0 to 1V, and 0 to 10V.
As with all iSeries devices, the process value display can be programmed to change colour between GREEN, AMBER, or RED at any set point or alarm point. The LEDs displaying the process value on the CNi8DH(horizontal 1/8 DIN) are the largest digits of any 1/8 DIN controller.
The strain/process instrument(model CNiS) meters and controllers measure inputs from load cells, pressure transducers, and most any strain gage sensor. Input ranges include 0 to 100 m Vdc -100 m Vdc to 1 Vdc 0 to 10 Vdc in addition to0 to 20 mA. Excitation for transducers of 5 V and 10 V is standard.
The highly recommended networking and communications options include direct Ethernet LAN connectivity with an embedded Web server, and serial communications. The C24serial communications option includes both RS232 and RS485 which can be selected from the menu as well as a straight forward ASCII protocol. The C4EIT option includes both Ethernet and RS485ASCII on 1 device.
The iSeries, with the network options, are designed for easy integration with popular industrial automation and control programs as well as Microsoft Visual Basic and Excel. OMEGA provides free configuration software which makes it fast and easy to get up and running with many applications. Available for download off the Internet.
