Burkert eCONTROL Type 8611 Nominated for Innovation Award

Vote for the Type 8611 eCONTROL today by visiting http://www.flowcontrolnetwork.com/innovationawards2010.asp.

Irvine, California – The Type 8611 eCONTROL is compatible with a wide range of proportional control valves and connects with an electro-pneumatic servo-system for pneumatically actuated process control valves. The proportional & integral (PI) process controller is equipped with many additional functions. 

The actual process value can be supplied as one of three inputs; a standard current (4-20mA), frequency or Pt100 signal directly to the universal controller.

The process switching points can be set via a 4-20 mA signal or with the keypad for temperature specific control. It is also possible to develop a cascade structure with both temperature and flow as inputs.

Thanks to the proportional control capabilities, a wide range of control functions can be performed in a variety of liquids and gas media.

Technical features:
• One versatile controller for flow, pressure and temperature
• Proportional/Integral and cascaded temperature control
• Dual indication of process values
• Easily customized
• Seamless integration
• Completely decentralized
• Works with pneumatically or electrically driven systems
• Two way communication with PLC or other controllers

Additional features:
•Microprocessor control
•Control of proportional and process valves
•For gases and liquids
•Sensor inputs (4-20 mA, frequency, Pt100)
•External or internal setpoint programming
•Valve and sensor data are memorized
