Product Description
The Trakstat series of electronic thermostats,
by Paktronics, is a cost-effective alternative to
the use of mechanical and pneumatic controllers. The Trakstat’s design flexibility and economical packaging offer a quality electronic
thermostat which fits most original equipment
manufacturer’s (OEM) temperature control
requirements.
The Trakstat control can incorporate either a
resistance temperature device (RTD), thermistor sensor, or type J or K thermocouple.
Sensors of this type eliminate the problems
of capillary tube kinking and their calibration
is not affected by atmospheric pressure
changes.
Track Dimensions
The Trakstat’s versatile mounting capabilities
offer the OEM many options from which to
choose, including a factory-adjusted fixed
setpoint, snap-in control shaft, or remote potentiometer when panel space is limited. The
UL and CSA recognized 20 AMP output relay will handle most load requirements, or the
output can be configured to drive a solid state
relay. The quick connect terminals allow for
fast installation and service.
Accurate, repeatable temperature control
through a narrow deadband will result in better temperature control and a better product
for your
customers.
Control Operation:
ON/OFF control.
Heating version:
Load is turned OFF with temperature rise above set point.
Cooling Version:
Load is turned ON with temperature rise above set point.
NOTE: Other options are available. Please consult factory.

Product Description
The PAKSTAT SERIES I electronic thermostat by Paktronics is a low cost alternative to the use of mechanical, pneumatic or
DIN packaged controllers. Part of the
PAKSTAT SERIES of OEM controls, the
PAKSTAT Series I offers a degree of flexibility and economy unavailable in other
packaged controls.
With its flexible wire sensor, the PAKSTAT
SERIES I controller eliminates the problems of capillary tube kinking and breakage. The quick connect terminals allow fast
installation and service.
The PAKSTAT SERIES I is used where it is
desirable to have accurate, repeatable temperature control through a narrow deadband.
The result is better temperature control and a
better product for your customer.
PAKSTAT is also available in digital indicating and cooling versions.
For more information, contact your
local PAKTRONICS representative or the factory.
Control Operation:
ON/OFF control.
Heating version:
Load is turned OFF with temperature rise above set point.
Cooling Version:
Load is turned ON with temperature rise above set point.
NOTE: Other options are available. Please consult factory.
1. Connect sensor leads to terminals 1 and 2. For
thermocouples, the red (negative) lead attaches to
terminal 2. (RTD SENSOR LEADS ARE NOT
POLARIZED).
2. For 120 VAC operation, connect LINE to terminals 4 and 5. For 208 to 240 VAC operation,
connect LINE to terminals 3 and 5.
3. Terminals 6 and 7 connect to an internal normally
open relay contact that is independent of the
controller’s operating voltage.
4. Connect AC line to load using external wiring, as
shown below.
Calibration Pakstat Series I
Simplified calibration decreases maintenance time without compromising accuracy. Our temperature controllers can be factory calibrated for convenience or calibrated as necessary at your facility.
1. Connect the PAKSTAT according to the wiring
diagram and instructions.
2. Attach the knob with the setscrews provided.
3. Turn the knob until the potentiometer is located at
the center of the dial.
4. Turn the power ON and allow 5 minutes for the
system to stabilize.
Note: The control will be damaged if 208/240 VAC is
connected to terminals 4 & 5 or to terminals 3 & 4.
5. Measure the temperature with an accurate
thermometer next to the Pakstat sensor.
6. Loosen the knob setscrews and turn the knob,
without turning the potentiometer, until the dial is
set according to the thermometer reading.
7. Tighten the knob setscrews.
Calibration can now be performed on identical installations by noting the position of the potentiometer and
duplicating the setting. Offsets to compensate for sensor location can be calibrated. Contact the factory for
details.

(817) 284-5241.
The BETA SERIES open-architecture electronic temperature controls, by Paktronics,
offers a low cost alternative to the use of
inaccurate mechanical or pneumatic thermostats, and expensive panel mounted temperature controllers. The BETA SERIES controllers offer the flexibility of custom controls with the pricing and delivery of standard products.
When coupled with the model LCD3000
digital display, the BETA SERIES electronic
temperature controllers provide the convenience of digital indication of actual process
temperature.
Mounting Dimensions
The LCD3000 is a 3½ digit LCD display with
resolution of 1°. With its flexible wire sensor, the BETA SERIES of controllers eliminates the problems of capillary tube kinking
and breakage. The quick-connect terminals
allow fast installation and service.
The BETA SERIES of controllers is used
where it is desirable to have accurate, repeatable temperature control through a narrow
deadband.

5 Deviation Output. A bipolar (±) DC
output to drive an external deviation
indicator.
6 Display Output. 0-2 Vdc output to
drive a high impedance analog meter or
an LCD3000 digital display.
CONTROL MODE
A. On/Off (contacts open on temperature rise).
Generally used in heating applications where there
is a constant change in variables, such as load or
setpoint, in a static system. On/Off can be set
up with a very narrow deadband (or differential)
for tight control, or with a wide deadband for
use when mechanical limitations restrict cycling.
C. Fast Zero-Crossing Time Proportioning .25
second minimum cycle time (bandwidth is fieldadjustable to 10% of span). Proportioning may
be desirable in a dynamic system, where the load
(such as flow rate) and setpoint are constant.
6 Accepts remote-mounted
potentiometer.
7 Dual Internal. Two on-board
setpoints used in dual mode
controls
8 Accepts dual remote-mounted
potentiometers.
This matrix represents only the more common
configurations. The BETA SERIES custom
controls is limited only by your imagination.
Contact Paktronics Controls, or your local
Paktronics representative for additional information.
F. On/Off contacts close on temperature rise.
Generally used for cooling applications.
K. Zero Crossing Proportional, reverse acting.
L. Window controller. Used where controlling
action takes place when the process temperature
is within a specific range of temperatures. Can
also be made so that action occurs when temperatures are above or below the window. This
type of control might be used in an application
where heat would be called for if temperatures
fell below the window, and cooling if the
temperature exceeded the window.
1. Reverse display cable connector on one end only. Verify that all
four pins are connected.
2. Check display cable for damage. Replace cable if wires or
connector are damaged.

Taking the Right Steps Towards Custom
Electronic Controls
Paktronics Controls has been synonymous with temperature control
since the 1970’s. We are a division of
Maxitrol Company, who has been a
leading manufacturer of gas pressure
regulators since 1946.
Paktronics began in the industry
by designing and manufacturing analog temperature controls. In order to
meet the needs of more sophisticated
equipment, we also design custom,
microprocessor-based controllers.
Our products can be found in medical and dental applications, process
control, commercial foodservice
equipment, HVAC, laminating equipment and many other industrial and
commercial applications.
Over the years, Paktronics has
designed numerous electronic
temperature controllers for special applications. Whether you
need one or 10,000, call upon
Paktronics to build that special
control.
Our R&D and engineering
staff are ready to replace an obsolete unit, or design a totally new
control for your new process or
equipment. Our commitment to
innovation and development is
directed toward solving your temperature controlling problems and
needs.
Authorized Paktronics Representatives and Distributors are able to assist you in the selection of the proper
temperature controller. Whether it’s
a special controller for new equipment or processes, or a replacement
for a worn controller or thermostat,
take advantage of Paktronics to assure getting the right controller at the
right price.
Install a back-up control for critical applications where control failure could endanger life,
limb, or property. A back-up control to serve as a high limit control is especially recommended for applications where a runaway condition could result. Paktronics Controls’
products are not authorized for use as critical components in life support devices.
