The KS 800 multi-loop controller has been designed to handle up to 8 zones simultaneously. The instrument can be configured as a signal device, 2-point controller, 3-point controller, cascade controller or stepping motor controller. In the 2-point and 3-point configurations it can also be set up as a continuous and split-range controller.

The advanced functionality of the KS 800 series temperature controller include setpoint reduction and heating/cooling with 4 alarms. This makes it ideal for use in plastic packaging and textile machines along with packaging techniques, semiconductors & dryers.

Self-tune functionality within the KS 800 controller is a standard feature to allow for automatic determination of best control parameters for a heating/cooling application. Along with self-tune, self-tuning at setpoint is also possible within the controller. This new method allows the controller to define parameters optimised at the controllers setpoint on request or automatically if an oscillation trend is recognised.
