TFT graphic display temperature controller AriesPlus

with touchscreensingle-loopsingle-channel

Overview
The AriesPlus capacitive touch-screen temperature controller provides programmable control with up to 50 stored programs, each containing up to 99 segments configurable as ramp, step or dwell. Segments can trigger external events and control relays. AriesPlus features a 7.0'' colour capacitive touch screen, an intuitive menu for program editing, a 7-day scheduler, data logging and user-level security.

Programming and logging

• Up to 50 programs with 99 segments each (segments configurable as ramp, step or dwell)
• Store and retrieve 50 unique program profiles
• Program scheduling: 7-day time scheduler to start programs at defined day/time
• Program segment events: segments may activate external devices such as gas flow valves or cooling fans

User interface and security

• 7.0'' colour capacitive touch screen
• Live process graph display showing setpoint and actual temperature
• Direct setpoint and program profile control from the panel
• User-level security with multiple access levels
• Interface language support (settings include 9 languages)

Acquisition and connectivity

• Data logging to internal memory with configurable logging rate (examples from 10 s)
• Panel-mounted USB socket for data export/import
• Ethernet connectivity as standard (DHCP or manual IP configuration)
• Remote access via standard web browser (viewing, login/navigation, create/edit programs, download logged data) without extra software

Control and protection functions

• Single-zone control (single channel)
• Autotune / THERMOTUNE for optimized PID across multiple temperature points
• Alarm outputs configurable for events such as door locking or process accuracy monitoring
• Integrated independent over-temperature protection with clear alarm indication (recommended for unattended operation and load protection)

THERMOTUNE (Carbolite)
THERMOTUNE provides advanced multi-point PID tuning and adaptive control tailored to Carbolite systems, delivering precise temperature regulation across a wide range and consistent results under changing process conditions.

Additional features

• Configurable data-logging rate (examples from 10 seconds), batch ID and auto-logging on program start
• View live process graphs for extended periods (examples up to 48 hours) with pinch-zoom; download by batch or date/time range
• USB/PC import-export of programs (duplicate, rename, favourite, delete)
