The 2404 Atmosphere Controllers provide accurate
display and control of carbon level in carburizing furnaces and
ceramic glazing kilns. There are three different controllers that
connect to a variety of common zirconia probes, including the Series
AP from Eurotherm, which measure the % oxygen in a furnace. The
carbon level is calculated from two inputs, the % O2 and temperature
measured by the probe. An optional third input can accept a signal
from a CO or H2 analyzer, thus providing a more precise carbon or
dewpoint measurement.
In addition to carbon levels, the controller can
be configured to measure % O2, log O2, dewpoint (°C or °F)
and probe millivolts. A probe clean output forces compressed air
through the probe at regular intervals to burn off soot. A sooting
alarm will warn if carbon deposits

build up to give false readings. Health of the probe
is measured by monitoring the time it takes the probe mV reading
to recover from self-clean. Probe clean and CO/H2 compensation are
enabled by digital inputs.
A range of plug-in modules provide control, alarm and retransmission
options. Optional Modbus®, ASCII, or Profibus® communications
are available.
ESO209 - This low cost version offers PID and two
module slots plus Modbus® or ASCII communications.
ES0288 - This version is identical to ES0209, but with Profibus®-DPcommunications.
ES0278 - This version offers PID or valve control, two module slots,
five relay outputs, Modbus® or Profibus® communications
and an optional third slot for retransmission or CO compensation
