Main Features

• Visual display of the connected furnace, chambers, different configured components (e.g.: furnace door, recirculation turbines, etc.) and the loads can hold up to 32 PID control-loops to regulate configured process parameters such as temperature, furnace pressure as well as atmosphere parameters (e.g.: carbon potential, nitriding potential and oxygen potential)
• Load oriented treatments: real-time monitoring of jobs at all stages of the process and all chambers of the furnace
• All process parameters can be configured with alarm limits
• Notification and processing of alarms
• An online diffusion calculation provides the capability to control the process using the required target values (e.g.: case depth, surface carbon content)
• Process variables can be viewed and recorded with chart recorders
• Log files in ASCII format can be downloaded to a remote computer for archiving
• Up to 999 treatments and templates can be created and modified

Hardware and Options

• Integrated industrial Ethernet interface for connecting to a PC via TCP/IP with the configuration software, host system connection is optional
