All-in-one units for DAQ, control and visualisation
Eurotherm’s new Eycon series of visual supervisors provide multi-function control, recording and visualisation. Eurotherm has a long history of experience in the control, data acquisition (DAQ) and process automation market and now the Eycon series brings that expertise into a single process unit.
Eycon’s new visual supervisor technology incorporates some impressive functionality that allows users to completely manage a process. In fact engineers may class the Eycon visual supervisor as a mini DCS (distributed control system) that could easily be incorporated as a powerful component within a wider system.
The series has been designed to reduce configuration, integration, installation and wiring costs while increasing accuracy, quality and efficiency. Eycon visual supervisor instruments can be used as building blocks within larger systems communicating over Ethernet (ELIN). Eurotherm’s goal is to reduce engineering costs by targeting time spent on configuration, integration, installation and wiring in order to increase the availability of the system.
Eurotherm has traditionally been strong in the pharmaceutical, chemical, glass and other applications where temperature control and measurement are critical to the process – and it is to these markets that the Eycon series has been focused.
The integrated full-colour display uses touchscreen technology. The pop-up navigation menus provide an intuitive interface for functions such as batch control and recipe management, as well as commissioning and diagnostic tools.
