General
Thank you very much for buying an Universal Controller KS 45.
The universal controllers KS 45 are suitable for precise, cost-efficient contol tasks in all industrial applications.
For that you can choose between simple on/off-, PID- or motorstepping control.
The process-value signal is connected via an universal input. A second analog input can be used for heating-current
measurement or as external setpoint input.
The KS 45 has at least one universal input and two switching outputs. Optionally the controller can be fitted with an
universal output or with optocoupler outputs. The universal output can be configured as continuous output with current
or voltage, for triggering solid state relays or for transmitter supply.
Galvanic isolation is provided between inputs and outputs as well as from the supply voltage and the communication
interfaces.
Applications
The KS 45 as universal controller can be utilized in many applications, e.g.:
