DESCRIPTION

The MIC 6000 is a 1/4 DIN, microprocessor based,
single loop, profiling, process controller. It can function
either as a basic process controller, utilizing manual
setpoint changes or it can also execute any one of
eight setpoint profiles; each profile can have six ramp
and six soak segments.

Access to configuration parameters and setpoint may
be restricted by using the instrument's security-access
mode.

The MIC 6000 can provide single or dual control
outputs and up to three event outputs. The unit can
include two 4-20mA current outputs which can be used
for control or optional process value retransmission.

1/4 DIN Profile Controller

Controllers

APPLICATIONS:

Programmable profile device stores and
implements temperature control sequences
including ramp/soak profiles.

INDUSTRIES

• Industrial and lab ovens/furnaces, plastics and

thermal forming

• Form/fill and seal

• Packaging applications

• And any others where low costs, smaller size

and unmatched connectivity are critical
requirements.
