Common questions on this part
A 50mA current transformer is installed around the heater element power conductor and wired to the ATR244 CT input terminals. During the heating cycle when the control output is active, the controller monitors the actual current. If the current drops below the programmed minimum threshold (indicating element open-circuit or burnout), the ATR244 immediately trips a Loop Break Alarm contact to alert the operator.
Yes. The ATR244-12ABC includes a dedicated analog output configurable in software for either 4..20 mA or 0..10 V DC with 40,000-point resolution (±0.2% F.S.). It can function as a proportional control output to position modulating steam valves and SCR thyristor packs, or as an isolated PV/SP retransmission signal to external PLCs or SCADA recorders.
Yes. STARNEX Industrial Spares maintains inventory of the Pixsys ATR244-12ABC at our Nairobi trade counter along Enterprise Road, available for same-day counter collection or dispatch across Kenya.
The ATR244 incorporates a front-bezel NFC antenna. Using the free MyPixsys smartphone app (Android and iOS), an engineer can read, duplicate, or modify complete parameter profiles simply by tapping the phone against the controller front panel—even when the instrument is unpowered in its box.
