AutomationDirect: ProSense Advanced Process Controllers

May 11, 2020

Made exclusively for AutomationDirect by Yokogawa, the ProSense PPC5 series of Advanced Process Controllers has the features, functionality, and performance to handle temperature, pressure, level, flow, and other process variable control applications. These controllers accept inputs directly from thermocouples or RTDs and analog signals from most any type of process variable sensor/transmitter.

  •  –   Models are available with an additional analog input for remote setpoint and up to 4 contact inputs that can be selected to perform up to 17 functions.
  •  –   The control output is user selected to be a relay, voltage pulse, or linear current output. An analog retransmission output is selectable to represent the PV, SP, target SP, remote SP, or output signal.
  •  –   Three alarm contact outputs can be configured for 30 alarm types and 10 alarm functions.
  •  –   The PPC5 series can be ordered with RS-485 Modbus ASCII/RTU, or with Ethernet+RS-485 gateway Modbus TCP/IP communications.
