Mini8® Controller
Control Optimize Simplify
Product at a Glance
The Mini8® Controller offers high performance control usually only
found in Eurotherm® panel-mount PID controllers. It is also a very
competitive and compact data acquisition device. Its modular
design enables its I/O and feature set to be selected to cater for a • 16 control loops
wide range of applications from simple to complex. • 32 analog inputs
The Mini8 controller is an ideal partner to a programmable logic • Modular & compact
controller. Able to multi-drop on either Serial, Fieldbus or Ethernet • SP programming
communications, it offers a cost-effective alternative to performing • Math and logic
analog measurement or loop control in a PLC. Implementing these • Remote HMI
functions in the Mini8 controller reduces the hardware cost of the • Modbus RTU
PLC, relieving it of the burden of performing analogue functions, • DeviceNet® network
often allowing a lower specification processor to be used.
• Profibus DP network
The feature set is comparable with the Eurotherm 3000 series • Modbus TCP
panel controllers including its high performance PID control and • EtherNet/IP
SP programming functions together with a range of features such • EtherCAT
as Math, Logic, and Timing blocks. • Defend OEM knowledge
When used in a data acquisition installation the controller’s high and IP (OEM security)
density analog I/O can be combined with Eurotherm’s 6000 series
paperless graphic recorder.
