product details

Product overview

TCU temperature control units are used where the buyer needs stable control of material temperature, outlet temperature and circulation conditions for a reactor, process skid or matched equipment line.

Where this route fits

  • Jacketed glass reactor and stainless-steel reactor control
  • Pilot plant process temperature control
  • Heating and cooling loops with programmable steps
  • Process systems that need HMI/PLC integration

What to provide before quotation

  • Minimum and maximum process temperature
  • Reactor volume, jacket size and process medium
  • Heating load and expected cooling load
  • Voltage, cooling type and control protocol requirement
  • Whether Siemens PLC, data export or explosion-proof options are required
