Watlow EZ-ZONE® ST Integrated Control Loop Makes

Solving the Thermal  Requirements of Your System Easy

The EZ-ZONE® ST integrated solid state controller from

Watlow® offers a complete thermal system control solution

in a single package. Features include a PID temperature

controller connected to a high-amperage solid state relay

with the option of adding a properly sized heat sink, an

over- and under-temperature limit, a power shut-down

contactor, digital communications and a remote user

interface in one complete and professionally engineered

product.

Because the system is modular and scalable, a user only pays

for what is needed. Stacking the EZ-ZONE ST integrated

controller into multiple configurations enables flexibility to

standardize the product platform to solve a wide range of

application needs.

This integrated controller also includes 200KA short circuit

current rating (SCCR) tested up to 480VAC to minimize

damage in the event of a short circuit when used with

required fusing.

EPack-2PH controller order codes

The EPack power controller is ordered using a short code for hardware

and chargeable software options and an optional extended code section

configuration of commissioning options.

If the extended code is not used, the software configuration is completed

using a quick start procedure or using Eurotherm iTools software.

EPack controllers may be upgraded with additional chargeable options at

any time using a software key order code.

Watlow’s New WATCONNECT® Large and Extra-Large Panels Maximize

Process Uptime with Small Footprint

Watlow’s new WATCONNECT® large and extra-large control panels

are designed to maximize process uptime with a small footprint.

Unlike most control panels installed in the field, WATCONNECT large

and extra-large control panels permit safe access to control compartments

allowing users to troubleshoot without shutting down the process.

In addition, the large and extra-large panels only require 50% of the

space of competitive panels, which frees up areas for other critical

equipment needed in the process.

As an additional option, the Data Insights Package offers remote monitoring

to the cloud of thermal system analytics such as power and control health,

failed element detection, process continuity and more.

All WATCONNECT control panels are pre-designed for a proven, high-quality

solution.

Features and Benefits

Advanced thermal design

• Offers high reliability

• Includes solid copper internal power interconnect for less expansion and contraction

• Provides environmental and field connection health monitoring for identifying

issues before shutdown

Easy access to control compartment

• Allows for panel troubleshooting without process shutdown

Resettable components

• Reduces maintenance time

• Eliminates need for spare parts

Small footprint

• Utilizes up to 50% less control room space than other panels

Data Insights Package (optional) – Industry 4.0

• Allows for remote review and analysis of the data collected by a data scientist

and thermal system expert

• Includes comprehensive quarterly thermal system report including insights and

recommendations for system improvement

• Offers collaborative touchpoints: Engineer-to-engineer data review

• Enables preventative maintenance or factory assistance

EPack 2-PH controller is the latest generation of power controllers designed to

be a cost effective solution for the control of 3 phase loads. The 2 leg control

is particularly adapted to the control of balanced loads, directly, or through

transformers. Burst firing avoids generation of harmonics and reduces the

consumption of reactive power.

EPack 1-PH SCR controllers are designed to carry currents from 1 to 125 amps,

with operating voltage between 100 and 500 Volts

The scalability and configurability of EPack power controller range fits with the

requirements of each application. A wide range of alarms can quickly identify a

controller detected fault which reduces downtime.

Key Features:

• Nominal load current from 1 amp to 125 amps

• Voltage up to 500V

• Compact DIN Rail and bulkhead mounting

• Configurable via front panel or Eurotherm software (iTools)

• Plug and play Ethernet communications with Zero configuration networking (zeroconf)

• V2 , I2 or True power control

• Controls comprehensive range of loads: resistive, infrared, transformer primary, silicon carbide

• Energy usage measurement

• Advanced load diagnostics

• Integrated dual port Ethernet switch for “daisy chained” communications

• Modbus® TCP or Ethernet IP protocols

• Defend OEM knowledge and IP (OEM Security)
