Series 1ZC DIN Rail Type Temperature/Process Controller

The Athena 1ZC is a DIN rail mounted, auto-tuning controller that can be used for precise control of a single control loop with two independent outputs configurable as direct-acting, reverse-acting or alarm. A bidirectional RS-485 serial communications interface is standard. Discrete LED displays become illuminated whenever associated outputs are active and provide system status. A wide range of sensor inputs are supported and many types of outputs are available.

• Miniature DIN Rail Mountable Enclosure Stackable to Required Number of Zones
• Each Zone Independently Powered 100-250 V 50/60 Hz
• RS-485 Modbus® Serial Communications
• Easy Communications Bus Wiring
• Auto-Tune
• Each Output Universally Configurable as Heat/Cool or Alarm
• Accepts RTD (2 and 3 Wire), Thermocouple, and Linear Inputs
• Loop Break Alarm
• Pluggable Terminal Block for Easy Wiring and Controller Replacement
• Optically Isolated Inputs and Outputs
• UL, cUL, and CE Approvals

Multi-Comm Software

Athena Multi-Comm Software is designed for use with all Infinity with Modbus®, C-Series with either Modbus or Athena+ and Legacy Series Controllers using Athena+, and can control up to 100 temperature or process controllers/zones via an RS-485 network.* Up to sixteen controllers/zones can be simultaneously viewed on screen at one time with a color emulation of each controller’s front panel display showing process value and setpoint in real time.

• Pull-Down Menus and Pop-Up Windows Make Controller Configuration and Data Analysis Easy
• Multiple Operator Security Levels and Password Protection Prevent Unauthorized Access or Accidental Changes to Process Parameters
• Automatic Controller Detection Locates and Identifies Each Controller or Control Zone on the Network
• User-Defined 10-Character Controller Labels Allow Custom Identification of Any Controller or Control Zone
• Storage and Retrieval of all Configuration Parameters for all Networked Controllers or Control Zones to a Single Data File
• Provides Each Controller or Control Zone with Two Additional Local Alarms (Process Hi/Lo) Without Affecting Other Alarms
• Captures and Time-Stamps Process Value and Setpoint Data to Log File for Subsequent Storage and Analysis
• Displays Graph Window Showing Real-Time Plot of Process Value vs. Setpoint for Any Controller or Control Zone on Network
