DXTC-290Controller-3

Ultra-low Temperature Controller

The DXTC-290 temperature controller has extremely high resolution, accuracy, stability and other characteristics, and is at the advanced level in the industry. At the same time, it has multiple communication methods such as Ethernet, RS-485, and USB, with long data transmission distances and convenient and flexible data collection. The sensor adopts dual constant current source mode with balanced output. The constant current source can automatically shift gears at extremely low temperatures, reducing the energy injected into the sensor and ensuring stable and reliable operation of the sensor.

 

DXTC-290 Ultra-low Temperature Controller has two control loops at the same time. The input of each loop can be associated with any one of the ten sensors. It can be expanded to up to two 100W or one 200W low-noise heater, which can realize various modes. Closed-loop temperature control and self-tuning function make operation simpler and faster.

Note 1: The driving principle of dual constant current sources for balanced output, that is, the two current output lines are centered to the ground, effectively suppressing common-mode interference and improving measurement accuracy;

Note 2: Different excitation current ranges are used for different temperature zones of the sensor. The voltage on the sensor is monitored when the voltage exceeds After 10 mV, it automatically downshifts to bring the voltage back to 10 mV. This can control the injection energy of the sensor and ensure stable and reliable operation of the sensor at extremely low temperatures.
