What is Watlow EZ-Zone?

What is Watlow EZ-Zone?

The EZ-ZONE PM panel mount limit controllers from Watlow® offer control options to reduce system complexity and the cost of thermal loop ownership. The EZ-ZONE PM limit controller provides high amperage power controller output and over/under limit control in one space saving, panel mount package.

What is EZ-Zone?

The EZ-ZONE PM panel mount controller offers control options that reduce system complexity and thermal loop ownership cost. It can be ordered as a PID controller, an over/under limit controller or its functions can be combined into an integrated controller.

What is a PM controller?

The EZ-ZONE PM Express controller is an industry-leading PID controller that allows optimal performance utilizing simple control and menu functionality without complex features. It is ideal for basic applications and usage levels.

What is a PID temperature controller?

The PID controller measures both the primary and secondary loops and adjusts the power level affecting the heat of the secondary element so that it in turn heats the primary element to the setpoint. The PID controller reduces power as the temperature approaches the setpoint to meet and then maintain the setpoint.

How do I reset my temp controller?

Here are the step-by-step reset instructions:

  1. Turn your thermostat off by switching it to the off position.
  2. Find the breaker that powers your HVAC system and turn it off.
  3. Wait 30 seconds and turn the breaker back on.
  4. Turn your thermostat back on.

What does a temperature controller do?

A Temperature Controller is a device that is used to control a heater or other equipment by comparing a sensor signal with a set point and performing calculations according to the deviation between those values.

What are the 4 temperature controls?

The four controls of atmospheric temperature are (1) differential heating of land and water; (2) ocean currents; (3) altitude and geographic position; and (4) cloud cover and albedo (Pearson, The Atmosphere).

How do I reset my thermostat after changing the battery?

To reset your thermostat, follow these steps:

  1. Ensure that your thermostat is turned off.
  2. Open the door of the battery compartment.
  3. Now take out the batteries.
  4. Put the batteries back on in reverse to the indicated polarity by the markings in the battery holder.
  5. Allow the batteries to stay this way for about five seconds.

Is the Watlow ez zone pm panel mount controller compatible?

The EZ-ZONE PM controller is easy to use and is ideal for PID controller, over/under limit controller or integrated controller needs. With Watlow SELECT™, you can search online, configure products for an exact fit and quickly receive your order.

What are the protocols in the EZ zone pm?

The EZ-ZONE™ PM family of controls provides several different protocols (Modbus RTU & TCP, EtherNet/IP, and DeviceNet) meeting today’s communication needs across many industrial applications. In information technology, a protocol is the special set of rules that end points in a telecommunication connection use when they communicate.

Is there a warranty on the EZ zone pm?

The EZ-ZONE®PM is manufactured by ISO 9001-registered processes and is backed by a three- year warranty to the first purchaser for use, provid- ing that the units have not been misapplied. Since Watlow has no control over their use, and sometimes misuse, we cannot guarantee against failure.

Which is the next generation ez Zone Controller?

It is ideal for basic applications and usage levels. The EZ-ZONE PM Express is the next generation controller to follow the legacy of Watlow’s SERIES 93, SERIES 935 AND SERIES SD controllers that offer easy-to-use features for many basic applications.
