Watlow EZ-ZONE RM controller Benefits of using an integrated controller solution

Optional integrated controller functions can be

combined or ordered in different quantities:

• PID control loops

• Over/under temperature limit control loops

• 10 and 15 ampere power output/heater driver options

• On-board data logging

• Current measurement input

• Sequencer start up and control function

• Programmable timer and counter functions

• Programmable math and logic options

• Multiple communication protocol options

• Mobile configuration with removable secure digital (SD)

flash card

Benefits of using an integrated controller solution:

• Reduces wiring time and termination complexity

compared with connecting multiple discrete products

• Improves system reliability

• Reduces termination and installation cost

• Eliminates compatibility issues often encountered with

using various discrete components and brands

• Reduces troubleshooting time and downtime costs

because the system can specifically identify any

problems with a sensor, controller, solid state relay

(SSR) power output or heater load

• Complete thermal solution saves engineering

time and labor costs while shortening project

schedules

Watlow The EZ-ZONE RM controller simplifies thermal system management

The EZ-ZONE RM controller simplifies thermal system

management. The EZ-ZONE RM controller family is

comprised of six module types: An integrated on-off or

PID control, monitoring and over/under temperature limit

module, a high-density on-off or PID control module,

a high-density limit only module, an input/output (I/O)

expansion module, a high-density monitor/scanner

module and a data logging and field communications

access module. A system is configured by connecting

any combination of module types to address specific

application needs. The EZ-ZONE RM is extremely flexible

and scalable allowing mixing and matching of I/O to

configure one to 152 control loops and up to 256

monitor points.

Now Watlow’s EZ-ZONE RM is available through

Watlow SELECT®, a program that enables you to quickly

identify, configure and receive your thermal products

faster and easier than ever before.
