SLC 500 Programmable Controllers and I/O Modules
1746-BTM Barrel Temperature Module
The temperature control module is an intelligent I/O module that can provide a maximum of 4 PID loops for temperature control. The
module has 4 analog thermocouple (TC) inputs. Each input functions as the process variable (PV) for a PID loop. The PID algorithm and
tuning-assisted-process (TAP) algorithm are performed on the module for each of the loops. The control-variable (CV) output of each loop,
either analog output or time-proportioned output (TPO), is sent from the module to the SLC data table. Your application ladder logic must
access the CV value in the data table and send the analog or TPO data to an output module to close the loop.
