Model UT450 Digital Indicating Controller is a simple,
micro-processor based digital indicating controller with
basic control capability and the user-friendly large
numerical display. The UT450 features as standard many
functions which are necessary for various control applications, and all of these functions such as control function,
control computation function, signal computation function,
etc. can be configured by using the keys on the front panel.
The instrument has an Auto-tuning, an overshoot
suppressing function "SUPER" and a hunting suppressing
function "SUPER2" built in as standard. It is suitable for a
diverse range of applications, with position-proportional
control and heating/cooling control models also available.
■Main Features
• Extra-large digital display allows the indicated values to be
read even from a long distance. LEDs of 20 mm height are
used for the process variable display. This is a 5-digit
display for higher resolution.
• Enabling the operator to start control operation immediately after simply entering the settings.
• Parameters can be easily set using a personal computer.
("Parameter setting tool (model LL100)" sold separately is
required.)
• Universal input and output enables users to set or change
freely the type of measured inputs, measurement range,
type of control output, etc. from the front panel.
• In addition to general purpose models (universal output),
the position-proportional model (relay output) or the
heating/cooling control model (universal output) can be
specified.
• Contact inputs (up to 7 points) can be employed and
functions assigned to each contact (The maximum number
of points varies depending on the specification code.)
• Various communication function are provided.
Communication is possible with personal computer,
programable logic controller, and other controllers.
■Functional Specifications
● Control Computation Functions
The following control computation functions can be
selected:
Target setpoint and PID parameter:
Zone PID selection:
Auto-tuning:
"SUPER" function:
Continuous PID control, Time-proportional
PID control, Relay ON/OFF control, Positionproportional PID control (for UT450-1■■) and
Heating/Cooling control (for UT450-2■■).
Maximum eight sets of target setpoint and PID
parameter can be set.
PID parameter set switching in up to 7
measured input zones.
Available as standard.
Overshoots generated by abrupt changes in the
target setpoint or by disturbances can be
suppressed.
UT450
UT450E
“E” indicates the
model with expanded
functions.
"SUPER2" function:
The function stabilizes the state of control that
is unstable due to hunting, etc. without
requiring any change in PID constants, when
the load and/or gain varies greatly, or when
there is a difference between the characteristics of temperature zones.
Preset output function:
When the instrument is in STOP mode,
measured input is burnt-out, or an abnormality
is found in an input circuit, a preset setpoint is
output as a control output.
Control cycle time: 200 ms
Operation Mode Switching
(Note: Communication enables all the following
mode switching to be executed.)
AUTO/MANUAL switching:
Bumpless switching between automatic
operation mode and manual control mode is
available by using the front key or contact
input. The contact input has priority over
front key input or switching by communication.
RUN/STOP switching:
Switching by contact input (bumpless for
switching from STOP to RUN). The contact
input has priority over switching by communication. In RUN mode, control computation is
activated. In STOP mode, control computation ceases and a preset value is output as a
control output while other functions operate
normally.
REMOTE/LOCAL switching:
Switching between remote setpoint and local
setpoint by instrument operation or contact
input. The contact input has priority over
instrument operation or switching by
communication. For remote to local switching, either bumpless tracking (employing the
remote setpoint on switching as the local
setpoint) or without tracking (directly
switching the local setpoint) can be specified.
control) 0.0% available for ON/OFF control
Integral time: 1 to 6,000 s, or OFF (for Manual reset)
Derivative time: 1 to 6,000 s, or OFF
ON/OFF control hysteresis: 0.0 to 100.0% of measured
input range width
Preset output: -5.0 to 105.0% (0 mA or less cannot be
output)
Output limiter:
Setting range: -5.0 to 105.0% for both high
and low limits
However, "low limit setpoint < high limit
setpoint" must be satisfied.
In case of heating/cooling PID control, upper
limiter for heating and upper limiter for
cooling.
Shutdown function:
When manual control is carried out with 4 to
20 mA output, control output can be output
down to about 0 mA (shutdown is specified
for -5.0% or less).
Rate-of-change limiter for output:
OFF or 0.1 to 100.0%/s
Deadband for heating/cooling control:
-100.0 to 50.0% for output range
Deadband for position-proportional control:
1.0 to 10.0% for output

An alarm is output when the delay timer
expires after the alarm setpoint is reached.
Setting for each alarm is possible.
Timer function (stabilization of control status notification
event) (Alarm1 only)
This function sets the alarm 1 output to ON
when a preset time (timer setting) elapses after
a PV has reached the control target setpoint
hysteresis band to notify that control
processing has reached its stabilized status.
Restarted in RUN/STOP or target value
switching.
Other alarm actions
