Electric heaters are used to
supply heat to manufactured products, storage systems and
re-circulating material. If a heater
fails, the batch or process may have to be scrapped. A
real-time indication of heater status improves product quality
and production efficiency.
Applying a current switch to the heater
lead and integrating the signal with your PLC or other
controller will allow you to
- Monitor the heater's on / off status,
- Alarm a failure, or
- Automatically switch on a back-up
heater.
NK Technologies' current-operated switches
offer you solid-state reliability at a low installed cost. The
units are available in both solid-core and split-core
configurations.
