The 7254-15-14 MultiSource is a compact, four-channel temperature controller with a whopping 225W per channel. Excellent for high power applications where low cost and high density are required. Each of the channels includes an auxiliary DC fan power supply for controlling external fans.
AutoTune Automatic PID Calculation
All Arroyo Instruments temperature controllers feature AutoTune for automatic PID calculation. With AutoTune, you no longer need to fiddle with PID parameters to find values that work with your application. Simply hook up your mount, set the appropriate limits, and start the AutoTune process. The instrument will automatically calculate PID parameters that will work with your mount.
Excellent Stability
The MultiSource offers excellent short-term and long-term stability. At less than 0.004°C stability over one hour, and 0.01°C over 24 hours, it provides an excellent solution for precision temperature control.
USB, Ethernet, and Local Control
The MultiSource includes both Ethernet and USB computer interfaces, allowing for quick and easy connection to a PC for remote operation. While intended to be primarily operated from a PC, the display on the MultiSource allows you to locally monitor status and turn channels on and off.
