PID Program Controller Regulus RF and RD
Device image of PID program controller Regulus in panel mount housing and bench top housing.
Regulus RF and RD are specially designed programmable PID controllers for use with a Sensortherm pyrometer and enable intelligent and very fast control processes. They are available in a compact panel-mounting version or a desktop housing for use with two pyrometers and additional relays contacts.

• Regulus RF: PID program controller for panel mounting
• Regulus RD: PID program controller as bench top model

Typical application is the process control of nearly all heating processes
• Inductive soldering
• Laser soldering
• Soldering under inert gas
• Specific preheating and reheating of welding processes

Functions
• Adaptable to nearly every induction system (also for modernizing existing systems with manipulated variable input)
• Direct output of a continuously adapted 0-10 V manipulated variable for controlling the high-frequency generator or the power component
• Auto-Tune function for automatic determination of control parameters
• Additional connection of up to 2 thermocouples possible

Timed heating ramps, holding times and cooling rates are selectively programmable. Intelligent APA (Automatic Process Adaptation) functions improve process control for soldering applications. The extensive logging functions of the SensorTools software are ideal for “online” monitoring and for subsequent analysis of the processes. The controller is able to take full advantage in the high requirements of the laser power control.
