TC LV
Output 0 to 5V, 5A max, Sensors PT100, LM35 etc, thermistor options
Our TC-LV Temperature Controller PCB provides full featured temperature control for low voltage TECs. Suitable to drive TECS at upto 5v at 5A,the unit has a low noise DC output, the unit can operate standalone once programmed or be controlled from a PC.
Designed so that it can either be seperately equipment mounted or PCB mounted it can be used for OEM applications .
Depending on the thermodynamics of the temperature assembly, it is possible to provide temperature stabilities better than 0.001ºC. Typically the setpoint temperature range is from –100ºC to 100ºC and they are environmentally friendly being entirely CFC free. The modules can be configured from a PC using a communications adaptor that plugs into the top of the PCB. The configuration data is stored internally in the controller so once programmed it can be used in standalone operation. Various adaptors are available allowing connection/operation over USB, RS232, RS485 or Ethernet.
Parameters that can be programmed are output limit voltages, operating temperature limits, setpoint, PID terms, and auto-tuning. These are programmable from a PC using the supplied software, allowing configuration and tuning to meet system requirements.
The sensor measurement is high precision and units configured for various sensor types are available.
RTD PT100, PT1000, Thermistor, LM35, AD590, LM335 etc
Typical uses for the controller would be with laser diodes and module temperature control, infrared detection and device test / measurement.
The interface and command set allow the unit to be controlled, either through the communications adaptor or serially. This allows dynamics changes to be made as required.
