Hi
We are looking to replace the temp control system on our main oven.
we currently run a eurotherm 2416 PID Controller with a single TC but are looking at running off 2 TC to get better consistency.
At the same time i want to upgrade the main electrical control system to a compactlogix 5370 L3.
To save on money and make it simpler i would like to use the new compactlogix with PID to control the oven temp instead of purchasing an additional temp controller.
My question is though are plc's able to handle temp control as well as a designated temperature controller?
I look forward to your reply
