300 Series High Performance Temperature Controls
from $225 List
Future Design Controls 300 Series set a new standard for DIN controllers. With 3 Inputs as standard and up to 4 control outputs plus Communications the 300 Series meet a variety or temperature & process control requirements with a standard 3-year Warranty, .
The 300 Series are available in the following sizes and number of displays:
- 1/32 DIN Single Display model FDC-2500 1/32 DIN Single Display
- 1/16, 1/8 & 1/4 DIN Dual Display models FDC-9300, FDC-8300 and FDC-4300
With the highest input resolution for like products, fast scan rate and proprietary Fuzzy Logic Auto Tune the 300 Series provides world-class control performance. As standard the 300 Series includes Fuzzy Assist Auto Tune, Deadband between Heat/Cool outputs configured manually or allow Fuzzy Logic PID to calculate optimum value, Fuzzy Assist Self Tune and manual adjust PID and Proportional Band Manual Reset.
The standard 3 inputs include: input#1 - universal t/c, RTD & linear mA/VDC input; input #2 CT or linear mA/VDC as 2nd PV or remote setpoint; input #3 an event input configurable for multiple functions. Click here for details on the standard 3 inputs, other unique features & applications they allow.
Unique SEL function provides user flexibility & operator ease of use. Parameters most significant to the operator [up to 5] can be configured to display in sequence when the scroll key is depressed. [SP2, P, I, D, alarm SP, Shift, Cycle 1 time, etc. or nothing displayed].
Standard features include configurable display decimal point, hysteresis for control and alarm outputs, Output Limiting, PV Shift [bias], and more are standard.
Configurable Alarm Logic [process, deviation & band] with Latching, non-Latching and Alarm Hold. Additional features include one Ramp/Soak segment, timer function, dual setpoint [event selectable], view PID % output, Auto/Manual, Configurable Bumpless Transfer, Set Point Ramp, Max & Min PV values retained in memory, Communication via RS232/485 Modus or Analog Retransmission, PC Configuration Software and very shallow mounting depth.
OEM or Distributor Private Branding is available.

Manual Loading Station: Instead of being used as a PID control the 300 Series may be configured as a Manual Loading Station to provide easy method to manually control a linear output. The single display 2500 is the most popular 300 Series model for Manual Stations. Additional information can be found at: Loop Controls Manual Loading Station.pdf
