Overview
MAXVU has been designed to offer essential temperature control in a
device that’s easy to install, fast to program and with improved display
visibility.
MAXVU provides an affordable solution for applications where primary
temperature control functions such as heat only or heat/cool are needed, it
offers a universal input and up to 3 outputs with a choice of either relay or
SSR.
Typical applications include packaging processes such as sealers and
many more.
