Dwyer Series 16G Temperature/Process Loop Controllers (16G-23-11, 16G-23-31)
Product Introduction
The Dwyer Series 16G Temperature/Process Loop Controllers are versatile instruments designed for precise monitoring and control of temperature or process conditions in industrial systems. Featuring two independent control outputs, these controllers support dual-loop control using on/off, auto-tune or self-tune PID, fuzzy logic, or manual control methods. Equipped with an RS-485 interface and Modbus® communication protocol, they enable seamless bench-top configuration or integration with PLCs and data control systems. The 16G-23-11 and 16G-23-31 models combine flexibility with robust functionality for the most demanding process control applications.
Product Features
Control Method Versatility:
On/off control for simple switching applications.
Auto-tune/Self-tune PID for precise, stable process regulation.
Fuzzy logic control for complex, non-linear systems.
Manual control for operator-adjustable outputs.
Dual-Loop Capability:
Two independent control outputs for simultaneous management of multiple processes.
Ideal for applications requiring coordinated control of temperature and related variables.
Set-Point Flexibility:
Constant set-point for steady-state operation.
Sloped set-point for gradual ramping.
Program (ramp/soak) for staged process control.
Remote set-point for external system integration.
Comprehensive I/O Configuration:
2 primary control outputs (relay, 4–20 mA, or voltage).
2 secondary/alarm relay outputs for fault detection.
RS-485 with Modbus® for digital communication and remote monitoring.
Expandable Functionality:
Optional hardware for remote set-point, input retransmission, or event input.
Supports integration with SCADA systems and industrial networks.
User-Friendly Interface:
Intuitive configuration for quick setup and operation.
Compatible with bench-top programming tools or PLC interfaces.
