Special micro controller boards and user interfaces
Controller board with user interface ET-OLED
- Accurate temperature measurement and control – 4 channels with two thermo-couples and two resistance thermometers (RTDs) with resolution of 0.03 °C.
- Control of frequency converters and servodrives over Modbus, analog or digital outputs.
- Extended temperature range -40 °C to 70 °C.
Applications
Control of centrifuges, ovens, presses, food processing, packaging machines, cleaning systems, washing machines, wood refining machines, compressors, scales, office machines, power converters, heating, cooling, testing and measuring devices with two thermocouples and/or two resistance thermometers (RTDs) etc. The ETOLED is especially suitable for series production of price sensitive products that require accurate and fast temperature measurements and control, control of frequency converters or servodrives over Modbus, analog or digital outputs.
Advantages
- Compactness
ET-OLED is suitable for smaller or portable machinery where a compact solution is necessary. The ET-OLED (size 86 x 86 x 20 mm) can be a substitute for several PLC
modules while still retaining all the required functionality at a fraction of the size. - Cost-effectiveness
The functionality that is not required by the client can be reduced to further reduce the cost of the PCB by using only the necessary components. The universal solution with maximum features is therefore suitable for various industries and products. - Tailored for your application
The hard- and software of ET-OLED will be tailored according to your requirements. The front panel sticker can be designed according to your wishes. ET-OLED is available also in 96 x 96 mm DIN enclosure to reduce assembly costs.
Features

Advantages
- Display of temperatures from all thermocouple and RTD inputs.
- Temperature controller configurable from the screen with transistor output to electromagnetic or solid state relays.
- Modbus master to control slave devices like HMIs, variable frequency drives and other.
- Multiple configurable inputs and outputs to suit all requirements.
- The micro-controller can be programmed according to your requirements.
- The buzzer can be programmed to indicate faults or important steps in the program.
- Four button interface is simple and easy to learn. A single rotary switch version is available with an even more intuitive and faster navigation within menus.
