Details
The West N8600 Plastics Controller is a 1/8 DIN controller that has been designed specifically to provide quality process control for the Plastics Extrusion Market.
This control features a special Heater Break Alarm Function which works similar to an amp meter, but alerts the operator to heater failures when they occur and prior to production problems. Quick Transfer is a one shot operation which automatically sets the alarm condition for the heater break and is based on the nominal current value. Quick Transfer allows for the automatic entry of setpoints for the heater break alarm. In addition, the Auto/Manual key can be configured for fast access to display amps or process temperature by a single key stroke.
