TCU features microprocessor control

A temperature control unit offers pumping rates of 90, 150, or 200 gpm, using 50- to 200-kW heaters, heat exchangers from 3.9-21 ft2, and a temperature range up to 550°F. The 6017's microprocessor controller has PID control for heating and cooling and a built-in ramp/soak feature as well as setpoint, to-process, from-process, and DT displays. Positive displacement, packed pump with drip-return pump or mechanical seal, TEFC pump motor, and Nema-12 style electrical control enclosures are standard. The units also come with a pressure-actuated bypass valve for a safety measure. Sterling, New Berlin, WI, USA, +1 262-641-8610; www.sterlco.com
