The 2404 Atmosphere Controllers provide accurate display and control of carbon level in carburizing furnaces and ceramic glazing kilns. There are three different controllers that connect to a variety of common zirconia probes, including the Series AP from Eurotherm, which measure the % oxygen in a furnace. The carbon level is calculated from two inputs, the % O2 and temperature measured by the probe. An optional third input can accept a signal from a CO or H2 analyzer, thus providing a more precise carbon or dewpoint measurement.
In addition to carbon levels, the controller can be configured to measure % O2, log O2, dewpoint (¡ãC or ¡ãF) and probe millivolts. A probe clean output forces compressed air through the probe at regular intervals to burn off soot. A sooting alarm will warn if carbon deposits |

build up to give false readings. Health of the probe is measured by monitoring the time it takes the probe mV reading to recover from self-clean. Probe clean and CO/H2 compensation are enabled by digital inputs. A range of plug-in modules provide control, alarm and retransmission options. Optional Modbus®, ASCII, or Profibus® communications are available.
ESO209 - This low cost version offers PID and two module slots plus Modbus® or ASCII communications. ES0288 - This version is identical to ES0209, but with Profibus®-DPcommunications. ES0278 - This version offers PID or valve control, two module slots, five relay outputs, Modbus® or Profibus® communications and an optional third slot for retransmission or CO compensation |
