Modular Temperature Controller
EJ1
In-panel Temperature Controller with
Flexible Modular Design for Greater
Integration with Host Devices
• The compact modular structure enables construction of
temperature systems optimally suited to the application.
• Connection can be made to a Programmable Controller without
any programming required, reducing the number of steps
required in ladder programming design.
• One fully multi-input Unit includes a thermocouple, platinum-
resistance thermometer, and analog input for easy selection
and reduced inventory requirements.
• Connect directly to the G3ZA Multi-channel Power Controller
using optimum cycle control for high-accuracy regulation with
minimal noise.
• Improved functionality to enable connecting more devices with
programless communications.
Connect multiple Controllers to one PLC.
Refer to the Safety Precautions on page 21.

Note:
1. An End Unit is always required for connection to a Basic Unit or an HFU. An HFU cannot operate without a Basic Unit. External communications cannot be performed when using a
Basic Unit only.
2. For heating/cooling control applications, control outputs 3 and 4 on the 2-point models are used for the cooling or heating control outputs.
On the 4-point models, heating/cooling control is performed for the two input points.
3. When using the heater burnout alarm, purchase a Current Transformer (E54-CT1 or E54-CT3) separately.
4. There are three operation instructions that can be sent to Basic Units connected to an HFU.
