EZ-ZONE® Integrated Multi-Function Controller

Watlow’s family of EZ-ZONE® integrated multi-function controllers combine temperature, process and machine control, over- and under-temperature limit protection, high amperage power switching, safety disconnects and field communications into a single package. Offering a variety of modular form factors and display types in place of several components, the EZ-ZONE is convenient and reliable. Watlow multi-function controllers are ideal for use in simple to complex applications, such as DNA processing. When data logging, data storage and communications are critical, multi-function controllers provide primary and secondary temperature control with universal inputs, including thermistors. EZ-ZONE temperature controllers can be configured with an agency-approved microprocessor temperature controller and limit in one package. Simple applications requiring one loop of control and one limit loop can be achieved in as small as a 1/16 DIN package size.
