Multi-function controller

11 July 2019

West Control Solutions’ newest release, PMA KS98-2 multi-function controller allows users to compose application ready powerful packages of process and logic control functions dedicated to their specific tasks.

The KS98-2 features a 3,5-inch, capacitive color touch panel in a standard ¼-DIN format. The clear structured user interface helps to navigate to the information of interest. Combining various functions like PID control, limit supervision, logic control, data monitoring, alarming and math calculations. Interactions between the tasks can be programmed as well. The compact all-in-one devices are lowering engineering and installation cost and save panel space.

The flexible I/O architecture allows to exactly compile the mix of In- and output-signals needed. 

Up to date communication interfaces are supported to embed the unit into wider automation and plant management infrastructures.

Programmable screen dialogues allow OEMs to improve the user- interface of their installations substantially. Paired with the capability to access application-oriented compilations of information, KS98-2 allows system integrators to create screens that are more user- friendly, rather than technical. In other words, text and data are now replaced with images and icons to allow for quick and efficient use.

Using the graphical function block editor KS98-ET the right mix of standard and sophisticated functions can be wired up with the flexible set of in- and outputs as required by the individual application. From a simple door lock up to complex interactions between control loops everything is possible and is easy to set up. 

With a long history in multi-function control units, the WCS team is continuously working to offer the most optimised process controllers in the industry. The KS98-2 is a complete solution in a single unit. It offers hardware flexibility, easy creation of applications and programmable functionality.
