Watlow's new EZ-Zone ST integrated control loop solid state controller offers
complete thermal system control in a single package solution. You get a PID
temperature controller already connected to a high amperage solid state relay
with the option of adding a properly sized heat sink, an over/under temperature
limit, a shut-down power contactor, digital communications and a remote user
interface in one complete and professionally engineered product. Your life just
became a whole lot easier when it comes to solving the thermal requirements of
your system.
Because the system is modular and scalable, you only pay for what
you need. You can stack the EZ-Zone ST integrated thermal loop into multiple
configurations giving you the flexibility to standardize on the product's
platform to solve your wide range of application needs.
