Size 48 x 48 mm Brand Autonics Frequency 50/60 Hz Display Type 4 Digit/7 Segment Control output Type Relay/SSR, Analog (mA/mV) Input Type RTD, Thermocouple Model No. TK4S-24CR A Temperature Controller is a device used to regulate and maintain the temperature of a system within a specified range. These controllers can be either analog or digital, and they are employed in various applications where precise temperature control is necessary. Here's an overview of how they work and their common types: How Temperature Controllers Work: Temperature Measurement: They measure the temperature of a process or environment using sensors like thermocouples, RTDs (Resistance Temperature Detectors), or thermistors. Comparison with Setpoint: The measured temperature is compared to a user-defined setpoint (desired temperature). Control Action: Based on this comparison, the controller adjusts the output to a heating or cooling element to bring the temperature closer to the setpoint. Feedback Loop: Most controllers operate in a feedback loop, continuously adjusting the output based on real-time temperature measurements.
