Novus N1050 Relay/SSR Output PID Temperature Controller 24v is an advanced high-performance PID temperature controller with a bright LCD easy-to-read multicolour 11-segment display.

Besides the PID auto-tuning capability, the N1050 outputs PWM control mode through pulse or relay. Up to three optional output relays can be selected. It also features 5 ramp-and-soak profile programs, soft start output and timer function which complement the advanced features of the controller. It comes with password protection. All parameters are configurable by the display menu or via the USB port or optional RS485 Modbus interface.

Easy to install and maintain due to its detachable connector, the N1050 offers the lowest power consumption in the market. Housed in anti-flame material, it has 48x48 mm (DIN 1/16) format and low profile front panel. Suitable for hostile environments, it complies with standard EMC regulations, providing robustness and reliability including untapped temperature applications.

These controllers are great alternatives to the Omron E5CC and West 6100+ models

PID Controllers

A proportional–integral–derivative controller (PID or three-term controller) is a control loop feedback used on applications that require continuous control operation. A PID controller continuously calculates an error value as the difference between the setpoint (SP) and a measured process variable (PV) and applies a correction based on proportional, integral, and derivative terms (denoted P, I, and D, respectively), hence the name.
