TC5-ITA rev.02
The TC5-ITA is an electronic device used for air inlet control in livestock
buildings. In combination with an environment controller, the TC5-ITA
coordinates the movement of the air inlets with the operation of the fans
using the real-time clock. Additional units can be connected to the
TC5-ITA for an independent control of additional air inlets.
The main features of the TC5-ITA are as follows:
DIGITAL DISPLAY
A digital display shows the operation parameters and alarm messages.
PILOT LIGHTS
Pilot lights indicating the state of outputs allow you to monitor the opera-
tion of the system from a distance.
ALARM OUTPUT
The controller generates an output signal that will activate any alarm system
in the case of various operation problems.
PERMANENT MEMORY
Settings are retained in memory even in the event of a power failure.
OVERLOAD AND OVERVOLTAGE PROTECTION
Fuses located at the input and outputs of the controller protect its circuitry
in the case of an overload or overvoltage.
COMPUTER CONNECTION
A computer can be connected to the TC5-ITA to centralize information
management and provide monitoring and datalogging possibilities.
