Common questions on this part
The ATR444 includes an integrated setpoint profile programmer capable of executing cycles of up to 12 steps. Each step can be programmed with a ramp gradient (heating or cooling rate) and a dwell/soak time at setpoint. It includes wait functions (holding the timer if Process Variable lags behind Setpoint) and power-recovery options, making it ideal for ceramic kilns, heat treatment furnaces, and tea drying cycles.
The ATR444 provides three simultaneous digital displays: the top 4 digits (0.63") indicate the active Process Variable (PV), the middle 5 digits (0.39") display the Setpoint (SP), and the bottom 5 digits (0.33") display auxiliary data such as cycle time remaining, step number, or output percentage. The LED bar graph provides an instant visual indicator of output power or deviation error.
Yes. The ATR444-14ABC-T model includes four 5 A / 250 V AC electromechanical relays, two 12/24 V DC SSR outputs, and a dedicated 4..20 mA / 0..10 V DC analog output. This allows continuous proportional control of SCR power packs or modulating valves while simultaneously operating safety limit relays and alarm horns.
The ATR444 conforms to the standard 1/8 DIN vertical format with outer bezel dimensions of 48 mm (width) × 96 mm (height). It installs into a standard rectangular panel cutout of 45 mm (width) × 92 mm (height) using supplied heavy-duty ratcheting side brackets.
