1.1Features

This chapter describes features, package contents and model code, etc. The digital controller of this high performance type has the following features:

Panel space saving: 74 mm depth

Selectable sampling time among 50ms, 100ms, and 250 ms.

Selectable sampling time makes the FB100 suitable for any application ranging from pressure control requiring fast response to precise control requiring highest resolution. (Factory setting: 100 ms)

 Selectable PID control algorithm

PID control algorithm is selectable in the FB100 to achieve the most precise control for various applications. PV derivative PID : suitable for fixed setpoint control (Factory setting)

Deviation derivative PID : suitable for ramp control using ramp-to-setpoint function and cascade control.

Advanced Heat/Cool PID algorithm with Undershoot Suppression

Startup tuning to eliminate time for autotuning

Mode switching can be performed directly (Direct key)

Control RUN/STOP, Auto/Manual, Remote/Local, Memory area, or monitor transfer can be selected. (Factory set value: Auto/Manual transfer)

 Up to 8 recipes (multi-memory area) or Ramp/Soak control

FB100 can store up to 8 sets of control parameters. Ramp/Soak control is available by using the memory area function.

 Easy maintenance

The internal assembly of the FB100 can be removed from the front.

NEMA4X and IP66 waterproof and dustproof protection for severe environments. (standard)

Two communication ports (optional)

Host communication can be performed with a host computer or host device such as an operation panel. (Communication 1)

Group operation such as cascade control and ratio setting is possible using only Intercontroller communication; it is not necessary to use communication with a host computer or analog signals such as remote setting input and transmission output.

(Communication 1 or Communication 2)

 Easy-setup and Data Monitoring via a standard data port

The FB100 have the loader port (provided as standard) to connect to a PC USB port with Windows 2000/XP/Vista/7.

The standard port allows setup and data logging to be managed by the PC. The FB100 is recognized as an external device on the PC.

[The communication tool (WinUCI, PROTEM2) can be downloaded from the RKC official website: http://www.rkcinst.com/.]
