8700+

Affordable, Well-Featured, Easy to Use and Adaptable

APPLICATIONS:

Fail-safe protection device to prevent damage to equipment or products. It will shut down a process when a preset temperature is reached and cannot be reset by the operator until the process has returned to a safe condition.

INDUSTRIES

• Industrial and lab ovens/furnaces

• Plastics and thermal forming

• Packaging applications

• And any other where protection against out-of-range

temperature condition is a critical requirement

Controllers

DESCRIPTION

The West 8700+ is part of a range of new generation '+' Series limit devices that share the same distinctive styling as the '+' Series temperature controllers.

The expanded '+' Series limit controller platform includes 1/4, 1/8 and 1/16 DIN models that incorporate numerous product specification, communication, display interface and software improvements that surpass competitive limit device offerings in ease of use, delivery and valueper dollar characteristic of the growing '+' Series product family.

By adding more versatile features and user-friendly functionality like digital inputs, an easy-to-use HMI, jumperless and auto-hardware configuration, 24VDC transmitter power supply and MODBUS communication across the range - the new generation West + Series limit controllers transform the complicated into the simple while saving you time (as much as 50% on product set-up), reducing inventory stock and virtually eliminating the likelihood of operator errors.

The + Series limit controllers are affordable, well-featured, easy to use and adaptable with performance features that work for you to make limit control simple.
