New EZ-ZONE(TM) Integrated Control Loop Receives UL® 50 Certification


St. Louis - Watlow, a leading designer and manufacturer of heaters, controllers and temperature sensors, has received UL® 50 certification on the user interface for the EZ-ZONE(TM) ST integrated control loop product. Underwriters Laboratories (UL®) 50 certification is the Enclosures for Electrical Equipment standard; Watlow received type 4X indoor approval through UL®.

EZ-ZONE is also now certified to National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) 250 type 4X standards, as a result of recently completed in-house testing. NEMA 250 is also the Enclosures for Electrical Equipment standard. In addition to UL® 50 and NEMA certifications, EZ-ZONE is CSA, RoHS, W.E.E.E. and IP65 approved.

"The certification offers our customers the peace of mind of knowing that the new EZ-ZONE integrated control loop performs according to all of these important standards," said Product Marketing Manager Don Commare.

EZ-ZONE ST is the first product to integrate temperature control, power control, safety shut-down and power disconnect in a single package. It features a PID temperature controller already connected to a high amperage solid state relay with the option of adding a properly sized heat sink, current measurement, an over/under temperature limit, a definite purpose mechanical contactor, digital communications in one package. The user also has the option of adding a remote user interface for increased usability.

EZ-ZONE ST provides reduced panel size and decreases termination complexity, which in turn reduces installation costs while increasing system reliability. Additional features of the EZ-ZONE ST integrated control loop include back panel or DIN rail mounting, a touch safe package, +/- 0.1 percent temperature accuracy and a three-year warranty.

EZ-ZONE ST integrated control loop can be used in temperature controlling applications such as plastics processing, packaging, environmental chambers, semiconductor processing, analytical instrumentation and general equipment use.
