DESCRIPTION
The MIC 1460 is a 1/4 DIN microprocessor based, single loop process controller with programmable setpoint programs. It can
function either as a basic process controller, utilizing manual setpoint changes, or it can execute any one of eight setpoint
programs. Each program is adjustable in the range of 1 to 16 segments and are cascadable to a maximum length of 121
segments. Each segment may be a ramp, a dwell, a join or an end. A delayed start feature is standard as is an end of
program relay. By using the auto-hold feature, assured dwells are possible.
The instrument can include two 4-20mA current outputs which can be used for control and a third current output to be used for
retransmission. In lieu of current control outputs, relays or SSR drivers are available. Four event outputs (relay) are available
as an option.
