DC-20+

Dual-channel temperature controller.

  • 2 CONTROLLERS in one casing

  • 2 measuring inputs (two temperature sensors included)

  • 2 control outputs 16A

  • T1 i T2 displayed alternately

  • Maths functions (average and differential measurement)

  • Possibility of connecting REGULATORS (for example. output1=switched on, when output2=switched off)

  • Digital input for manual work or failure signalization

  • Built-in sound signaller (alarm)


Universal controller designed to temperature control in heating systems:

  • electrical heaters, stoves
  • heating cables, anti-icing systems
  • incubators, terrariums, aquariums
  • boilers, heaters, etc.
  • central heating and domestic hot water pumps
  • solar collectors
  • fireplaces with water jacket
  • servomotors with 2, 3, 4-way valve
  • car heating (webasto)

and cooling systems:

  • fridges, refrigerators, freezers, cooling counters
  • fans, coolers
  • car units (12V or 24V version), etc.
DC-20+ is de facto two temperature CONTROLLERS placed in one casing with possibility of optional inputs-outputs configuration and connecting both controllers. Device has 2 control inputs and 2 control outputs, which can work in HEATING and COOLING mode, and a measurement is registered from T1 or T2 sensor or both sensors at the same time.
Due to maths functions measurement from two sensors can be calculated as a difference [T2-T1] (applied in systems with solar collectors) or average [T1+T2]/2.
Controller is able to operate both in simple, single or double heating or cooling systems and also with more complicated applications.
Controller has digital temperature reading and display calibration function. Value from the sensor T1 and T2 is being displayed alternately every 3 seconds. Controller is able to display only one reading.
Built-in sound signaller is able to signal turning on the outputs and emergency states.
Digital input can acts as alarm input or manual mode control outputs. It is able to signal failure system after having an effect on external pressure switch or temperature limiter STB connected to digital input. In case of failure the whole system will hangs up with a possibility of maintain the failure status, up till manual reset button.
Controller is equipped with two high-powered 16A relays (maximum resistive load 3600W).
