Overview
Integral IN 230 TW is a modular process thermostat with integrated cooling for dynamic temperature control of external circulation circuits and heat transfer fluids. The unit combines a fully electronic PID controller, a coloured TFT display and modular communication interfaces (USB and Ethernet standard, Pt100 port integrated).

Key features

• Integrated cooling system for precise control in external circuits
• Management of heat transfer fluids with stored fluid properties
• Fully electronic PID continuous controller with Self adapt function
• Low-level and adjustable over-temperature protection with acoustic alarm
• Programmer with 150 temperature/time segments (up to 5 programs)
• Powerful pressure pump with digital pressure display; max flow 40 L/min, max discharge pressure 3.5 bar
• SmartCool energy-saving cooling management and PowerAdapt for optimized power usage
• Standard USB and Ethernet interfaces; upgradeable with RS232/485, Profibus, analogue, contact or EtherCAT modules
• Integrated web server for browser-based operation with secure authentication and encryption
• Coloured TFT display showing actual and set values plus graphical temperature profile
