The ATC880 is a compact 1/4 DIN auto-tuning process controller. It is a cost-effective way to control a single process parameter, such as for a plastics extruder.

It can reliably auto-tune and alarm on strain gauge, DC voltage or current inputs and can also control differential pressure when an optional secondary strain gauge input is used.

The bright 5-digit LED is accompanied by a helpful, quick view 35-segment analog bar graph. Other useful display information includes alarm setpoints, peak values, error conditions, and engineering unit beacons.

The ATC880 is easily field-configured or programmed remotely via optional Modbus/Jbus without mechanical jumpers. An optional 24 VDC input supply is also available, and the unit is IP65/NEMA 4X rated for harsh environments.
