Temperature  Control   System

DL 2685

Module DL 2685 represents a process for the control of the temperature, suitable for analyzing continuous and discontinuous closed loop control systems.
A halogen lamp represents the heating element; a PTC sensor provides the feedback signal; a fan and a shutter valve allow, besides the reaching of a uniform temperature within given safety limits, also the insertion of noise variables.
