ACS2 |
|
Next generation controller |
The ACS2 is our flagship 48 mm square digital indicating controller, a next-generation controller with improved visibility, operability, and maintainability.
Its diverse functions optimize all types of control. It can be used for a variety of applications, including temperature control.
|
|
Large white LCD display provides high visibility at the work site. |
|
Adopt multiple instrument power supplies and multiple control outputs
|
The use of multiple instrument power supplies and control outputs makes it easy to select the type of instrument.
It also helps to reduce the number of management man-hours and inventory
|
 |
Adopt maintenance mode function |
Event input, event output, OUTl output, OUT2 output and transmission outputs can be output as desired. Wiring check and operation check can be performed before operation.
|
Failure prediction maintenance is possible
|
The console software enables the user to grasp the operating status of the system.
1. Accumulated heater energizing time
2. Accumulated energizing time of the unit
3. Accumulated number of relay contact open/ close cycles
Possible to check error histories (error type, total energizing) in the past 10 times. |
|
Easy setting with PCEasy setting with PC |
Various settings can be easily made on your desk by connecting to a PC.
[Tool cable (sold separately) and console software (free of charge) are required.] |
|
Selectable from 10 ms (DC current input, DC voltage input only), 50 ms and 125 ms.
This allows control to follow fast responses. |
The memory function allows up to 8 pairs of PID blocks to be set.
PID blocks can be switched according to the control target (process) for optimal control. |
Mitsubishi PLC link function |
Programless connection to Mitsubishi PLCs "Q series", "R series" and "F series" is possible. [A compatible IC frame AnA/ AnU common command (QR/QW)]
|
Fast auto tuning function |
Compared with conventional auto tuning. the time required for PID calculation can be significantly reduced. |

4 points (EI1 to EI4) are added as event inputs.
For options except C5W and EI, 2 points (EI1 and EI2) are added simultaneously.
Events allocated via the event input allocation selection are executed based on whether they are in the ON (closed) or OFF (open) state.

Event output
(Options: EV2, EV3) |

ACS2 Digital external setting (active when Shinko protocol is selected)
Receives digital setpoint values from the SVTC program controller option.
The control target value is the value received via the SVTC command plus the SVTC bias value.
The control target value is the value received via the SVTC command plus the SVTC bias value, constrained within the range defined by the scaling low limit setting to scaling high limit setting.
