The TCU menu structure and navigation,\u00a0set-point entry, alarm notification, icons, colors, communication protocols, and back-end hardware will essentially be the same as other Conair equipment, including blenders, dryers, etc. These common features simplify operator training and make it easier employees to learn to use different auxiliaries.<\/p>\n<p>The new Thermolators offer one of the broadest ranges of communications options available in the industry, including Modbus RTU RS-485, Modbus TCP Ethernet and, on the TW-P, OPC UA communication enables for 21<sup>st<\/sup> century connectivity. The TW-P is also compatible with Conair SmartServices\u2122, Conair\u2019s cloud-based IoT or \u201cIndustry 4.0\u201d solution for machine monitoring and data collection.<\/p>\n<p>Mechanically, the TW-P units can be equipped with solid-state relay (SSR) heater controls that provide the highest levels of precision and long-term dependable operation. They incorporate heat sinks inside the control enclosure and include a beefed-up ventilation fan to dissipate the heat. Mechanical contactors, representing proven technology, and will continue to be offered as standard equipment on all Thermolators.<\/p>\n<p>Also available are modulating valves for cooling in the place of more conventional solenoid valves, which still offer reliable performance and remain available as standard equipment. However, instead of controlling flow by periodically opening and closing like solenoid valves, the modulating valves operate from independent open and close signals so that flow is continuous but controlled. The modulating valves can be opened or closed partially in a linear fashion for greater precision and to eliminate water hammer when flow rates change.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, standard programs can be loaded into the TW-P controller for easy recall. Electrical phase monitoring, an optional flow meter with HMI readout, intuitive help screens for all functions are also provided.<\/p>\n<p>Logically, TW-S and TW-V feature a simpler design. The TW-V has an LCD displays and analog gages. The TW-S has the common-control HMI, with analog gauges as standard (digital optional), and many of the more advanced features of the TW-P also can be added as options.<\/p>\n<p><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.conairgroup.com\/cn\">Conair Group<\/a> offers innovative auxiliary equipment solutions to plastics processors around the world.
