Arroyo Instruments’ TECSource Series of temperature controllers provide a range of capable temperature controllers with very stable control and an easy-to-use interface. With powers ranging from 28 W to 960 W, a TECSource temperature controller is sure to fit your test and measurement needs.
Power to spare
With up to 960 W versions available, buying temperature control power has never been less expensive. The extra power allows you to push your test setup farther without the typical costly upgrades normally associated with that amount of TEC power.
Excellent Stability
With 0.004 °C stability, the TECSource becomes a transparent part of the process and not another variable you need to manage.
AutoTune
Every TECSource includes the AutoTune functionality for automatic PID calculation. Use as-is or as a starting point for further process refinements. Either way, you can quickly get to stable system configuration.
Built-In Fan Controller
All controllers include a built-in adjustable DC power supply which can be used to power external fans often found in test fixtures.
Fully Adjustable PID Control
All TECSources offer factory defined gain settings for temperature control. Need more control? Switch to PID gain and you have individual adjustment of each value in the PID circuit, providing fine adjustment of the control loop.
Easy To Use
Unlike other instruments in their class, the TECSource employs a dot-pixel character display provides easy-to-read status, readings, and errors. No longer do you need to get out the manual to figure out how to set the current limit, or to understand what error 114 is; you can read it directly on the display in plain English. This allows the user interface to be greatly simplified and at the same time easier to use.
Computer Interfaces
All TECSources come standard with a USB interface, and the 5300 and 5400 also include RS-232 interfaces. They are command set compatible with other manufacturers’ drivers, allowing you to leverage any existing software you may have already developed.
Measure Everything
Unlike many temperature controllers, the TECSource measures current, temperature, and voltage. Voltage measurement is often omitted in low cost temperature controllers. The TECSource is low cost, but not low performance.
