Product Description

The advanced Danaher P8170 thermal controller serves as a reliable industrial temperature control solution for different applications. The P8170 operates under the Thermal Controllers series to supply accurate and stable performance across multiple operating conditions. Dual 4-digit red LED displays on the P8170 allow users to read temperature values and settings without any issues during low-light conditions. The display system grants instant access to essential data points which allows operators to effectively control the system.

The P8170 shows its strength by recognizing all J K and N type thermocouples. The controller achieves broad application suitability due to its wide range of compatible thermocouple types which makes it operate effectively across simple heating processes and complex systems needing precise temperature control. The unit requires either 100 or 240 V AC power from the electrical grid so users can connect it to standard power systems without requiring special installation. Through its pre-tune and self-tune modes users can achieve optimal performance from their temperature control systems with full PID control capabilities available in the P8170 controller. The advanced tuning modes enable higher system precision which turns into more effective processes that exhibit minimal temperature variations.

The P8170 features an IP66-rated front panel which ensures resistance against environmental contaminants such as dust, water and other substances for reliable operation. The controller demonstrates its suitability for demanding industrial applications because it operates safely even in wet conditions and in the presence of dust and other industrial contaminants. RS485 Modbus RTU communication on the P8170 enables users to connect their system to larger networks through remote control and constant monitoring capabilities. The systems which need continuous monitoring or integration with central control units depend heavily on this communication feature. The Danaher P8170 thermal controller provides precise temperature control for ovens as well as HVAC systems and industrial machines across various industrial applications.
