Notes
- Description of Product
The 362 shot flow control was offered in two mounting styles. The "R"
style was for rack mounting, up to 10 modules per rack. The "P" style
was for panel door mounting. This controller required an external transformer
power for the MagnaValve. Early versions accepted only a 10.4KHz frequency
flow rate input signal. The "A" version could also accept a 0-5 Vdc
input flow signal. The "AZ" version offered auto-zero to offset the
0-5Vdc drift from the MagnaValve sensor circuit. The "R" style units
required cabinet cooling to prevent over-heating.
- Availability
- Repair
- Can be repaired
- This product can be repaired at the factory. Please call for
a returned goods RG number along with a description of the product,
its model number and serial number. Please include description
of symptoms or name and phone number of technical contact person
in case we need additonal information for the repair. Cost for
out of waranty repairs are always sent to you for approval prior
to repair.
- Parts you can order for your own repair efforts:
- auto-zero card (for "AZ versions only)
- Upgrading to newer product
- model FC control (if
available)
- What else is involved-
The FC control is a standard DIN size cutout, larger than used
with the 362 control. The FC has a built-in 48Vac transformer
and does not need the external transformer used with the 362.
However, if you plan to upgrade to the FC you might also consider
upgrading the MagnaValve at the same time and then use the next
generation FC-24. See below.
- model FC-24 Control
- What else is involved-
The FC-24 uses the same size panel cut-out as the FC but you
will have to re-wire for 24Vdc power source. The improved performance
of the 24Vdc MagnaValves makes this a worthwhile effort since
the valves have higher accuracy and virtually no zero-drift.
MagnaValve sensors last about 5-7 years. If your valve is older
than that then it is time to consider replacement. Upgrading
at the same time will save you time and money.
- Recommendation for new applications
- model FC-24
- Improved performance -
The FC-24 shot flow controller uses the new 24Vdc power system.
It is lower cost than the FC and generates less heat. It has
new features such as digital settings of servo gain and speed.
The gain settings can range from 75% to 150%. You will have
to upgrade the MagnaValve to the next generation 24Vdc power
at the same time.
