- Built-in loop break for open heater, shorted triac, reversed or shorted thermocouple
- Open thermocouple break protection with jumper selectable shutdown or average power output based on operation
- Preset alarms at 30F (17C)
- Safe Change hot swap feature allows safe removal and replacement of module
- CE compliant
Series RMC
The Athena Series RMC brings new and highly productive benefits to injection molders looking for a modular hot runner controller thats flexible, easy to set up, and simple to operate. Using the popular Modbus communications protocol, the Series RMC gives users the ability to set or change all zones, either remotely from a desktop computer, or (with the ALL command) from any other individual RMC module in the mainframe.
- Choice of three default modes for open thermocouple condition
- Built-in triac safety protection
- Accepts J or K thermocouple input (jumper selectable) SafeChangeTM "hot swap feature allows safe removal and replacement of module
- CompuStep bake out feature prevents moisture at startup
- Built-in loop break, short, open, and reverse thermocouple protection
- Boost mode for temporary % of power output increase
- Ground-fault protection
- Adjustable setpoint limits
- Stores highest temperature detected
- Current monitor feature displays average current to load
- CE compliant
SERIES RMT
The Athena Series RMT is a microprocessor-based, dual-zone temperature controller specifically designed for runnerless molding applications effectively doubling the zone count per module without doubling the price. It features two easy-to-use operator keypads, four LED displays, and discrete indicators for heat output, alarm, degree F/C indication, manual and closed loop mode.

DYDAC HOT RUNNER ( MOULD ) TEMPERATURE CONTROLLER
- Microprocessor Based Auto Tune PID Temperature Controller
- Accepts J ,K ,R, S, T Type Thermocouple ( Soft Start) bake out feature prevents moisture at startup
- Auto/Manual Transfer
- Accuracy of +/- 1 Deg. C.
- Internal Solid state triac, triggered by Phase angle Firing.
- Dual displays for Process and Set Temperatures
- High Speed Fuses 16 A protection Fuses.
- New Series with Short Circuit protection of Power Modules by C Curve MCB
- Latest Generation PID algorithm.
- Power Controller can take 3600 or 7200 Watts at 240 VAC
- In case of thermocouple Failure you can set the Power Manually by not stopping the production.
- Heaters life is extended to 10 times.
- PID Temperature controller has bar graph indication of percentage output going to heaters.
- PID Temperature Controller is CE Compliant and Phase Angle Power Controller is CE Compliant.
- The Power Controllers are Phase Angle Fired and are Variable Power Controllers which gives as much Power to the Heaters as required to maintain the Temperature thus saving the Energy ( Energy Conservation at Set Point) and increasing the life of Heaters and Less Production Break Down.
- Alarm Option for over shooting and under shooting of Temperature. In case Thermocouple Fails it will give Alarm
- Selection of Heater Current Load
Mold Power and Thermocouple Cables
More specifically designed for the plastic industry by process of hot runner injection molding, Dydac manufactures mold power and mold thermocouple cables designed specifically for your mold and temperature controller connections.
