Eurotherm introduces a new 1/8 DIN controller and indicator with text display.

The 32H8 has a text display, high accuracy input, 5 on-board process recipes, as well as Eurotherm’s patented “Instant Accuracy®” system. The text display makes it easy for anyone to use or configure the controller. When accessing the user interface every parameter is accompanied by a scrolling text message to describe its function. Scrolling alarm and event messages are unique features that can alert an operator of a change in plant conditions. These messages can be customized with a PC tool, thereby providing terms and expressions familiar to the operator. For example, in case of an alarm condition the 32H8 can change the text , e.g. “high melt pressure exceeded” from green to red. The controller can display a description of a parameter in 5 languages (English, Spanish, French and German). A simple ‘QuickStart’ code is used to configure all the essential functions required to monitor and protect the process and if so desired the code can be preset by Eurotherm.
