Introducing the F4T with INTUITION from Watlow
May 21, 2019
The F4T with INTUITION temperature & process controller from Watlow offers a wide range of field removable I/O modules for maximum design flexibility. Configurations can be custom tailored to meet the scaling needs of a tremendous range of equipment and applications while providing exactly the hardware types required for compatibility. The F4T controller also features a 4.3 inch, color, graphical touch panel. Combining power, flexibility and functionality, this new controller offers unmatched versatility, and its best-in-class ease of use could very well make user manuals a thing of the past.
The F4T’s batch processing feature can help with regulatory compliance, achieving data integrity in the plant, reducing warranty exposure, and even avoiding a potential recall scenario without significantly raising production costs.
