Product Description:

The thermal regulation system KS 50-1 Thermal Controller operates as a small controlling device from Danaher. The device operates specifically for industrial automation systems to regulate temperature precisely. This device possesses measurements that amount to 96mm in height as well as 48mm in width and 118mm in depth.

The KS 50-1 thermal controller follows 1/8 DIN specifications to fit into control panel structures. The controller enables connection through screw terminals in addition to pin terminals. The device allows different wiring techniques and installation styles through its design. Users can connect various input signals to the KS 50-1 because it operates with the universal protocol. Among its supported inputs the KS 50-1 receives signals from thermocouples RTDs DC linear mA and mV connections. The device executes its scans in 100 milliseconds for rapid control reaction. The control methods available in the KS 50-1 thermal controller comprise 2-point on/off mode and continuous PID control as well as 3-point stepping sequences. The system accommodates different heating and cooling requirements because of its multiple control options. The system uses Modbus RS422 or RS485 interfaces for its communication connections. This functionality allows smooth connection to industrial automation platforms. The controller enables customers to select dual power supply options for versatile system installation.

The protection characteristics of the IP65 rating in KS 50-1 thermal controller work to prevent the entry of dust while resisting small water jet pressures. The product provides trustworthy functionality within challenging or tough environmental settings. The KS 50-1 obtains certifications from CE, cULus, DIN EN 14597, and GOST-R. The device functions through either a range of 90–260 VAC or 24 V AC/DC power sources. Through its software division, Danaher makes Blue-Control software applications accessible to customers for both setup and monitoring tasks. This tool streamlines parameter setup and system diagnostics.
