Common questions on this part
The ATR144 provides a dual alphanumeric display (4 digits for Process Variable and 5 digits for Setpoint/Alarms) rather than a single display. It also includes 2 digital PNP inputs, a 12V auxiliary sensor power supply, soft-start ramping profiles, Loop Break Alarm safety detection, and an on-board Micro-USB PC configuration port.
The ATR144 soft-start function limits the rate of temperature rise upon initial system power-up by imposing a programmable rising gradient (in °C/hour or fixed output percentage). This prevents thermal shock, prolongs element lifespan in high-wattage electric heaters, and drives out moisture from ceramic heating elements safely.
Yes. The ATR144 features an auxiliary 12 V DC (30 mA max) output on dedicated terminals designed specifically to provide loop excitation for 2-wire 4-20mA process transmitters without needing an external DC power supply.
Yes. The ATR144 includes specialized Open/Close motorized valve control algorithms that utilize two electromechanical relay outputs to pulse the opening and closing coils of 3-point floating actuators based on PID error calculations.
