1.3 Appliance description 

Controllers in the MRF-2 | MRH-2 series are universal four-channel PID temperature 
controllers used to regulate and control industrial heating and cooling applications. 
The  four  built-in  controller  components  offer  complex  setting  options  for  optimum 
performance of the widest possible range of different control tasks.  This means that 
two-point and three-point control operations, continuous and pulsed PID control ope-
rations, multi-zonal control, absolute and difference temperature control, and other 
complex control tasks up to and including compressor rotation in composite systems 
are all possible. 
 The four autonomous control channels can be combined with external items such 
as digital inputs, fault indicators, temperature alarms or button functions. The con-
troller  architecture  circuit  diagram  illustrates  the  full  range  of  combination  options 
offered by the modular hardware concept.  
The MRF-2 | MRH-2 has up to three analogue universal temperature sensor inputs, 
one configurable analogue input and up to five digital inputs.  Temperature sensor 
types KTY, PT-100 (2 or 3 leads) or PT1000 can be connected to it. The analogue 
input can be configured to 0 .. 10 V or 4 .. 20 mA. 
External plant components such as heating systems, condensing units, control val-
ves, mixing valves, pumps, fans, signal transmitters etc. can be controlled through 
up to five relay outputs or a freely configurable analogue output.  
 
The operation and prior setting of the parameters of the MRF-2 | MRH-2 is divided 
into four operating levels. Access rights for each level must be determined by the 
plant engineering company. The programming level includes, for example, the para-
meters which the end user must be able to adjust during subsequent operation. As 
interference  with  the  basic  configuration  by  the  end  user  can  result  in  dangerous 
changes to functions, access to the other parameter levels is made more difficult by 
the use of codes.  
A type RS-485 interface is provided for communication with higher-level systems. 
 
 

WELBA “KONSOFT” 

The configuration software available as an option offers a simple way to set parame-
ters and update the temperature controller. The values measured by the three sen-
sors, the analogue input and the analogue output control signal can be transmitted 
to a PC.  
 
 
 
These instructions have been compiled with maximum care and attention. However, 
their content does not constitute an assurance of product features.   
The manufacture cannot be held liable for errors and may at any time make changes 
serving technical progress. All rights reserved.
