E300-04380A
Main features and advantages:
The E300-04380A delivers tangible value through its ability to reduce process variability, which directly impacts product quality and yield. In high-precision applications like semiconductor manufacturing, its ±0.05% accuracy ensures that thermal profiles during wafer processing remain consistent batch after batch, minimizing scrap rates. For food processing facilities, this translates to uniform cooking or cooling cycles, reducing the risk of non-compliance with safety regulations.
Beyond precision, the E300-04380A reduces operational overhead. Its intuitive menu structure allows operators to configure setpoints and alarms without specialized training, while advanced users can dive into parameter tuning via software. The controller’s data logging feature automatically records process variables at user-defined intervals, eliminating the need for manual charting and simplifying audits. Over time, this combination of accuracy and ease of use lowers training costs, reduces waste, and creates a more resilient process environment.

Application areas:
TheE300-04380A excels in applications where consistent process control directly impacts quality and safety. In aerospace manufacturing, it regulates temperature in heat treatment furnaces, ensuring that metal components achieve precise hardness levels—critical for structural integrity. Its ability to handle rapid temperature ramp rates (up to 10°C per second) makes it ideal for this demanding environment.
In biotechnology, the E300-04380A controls pH levels in fermentation tanks, maintaining the optimal biological environment for cell growth. Its alarm system, which triggers at the first sign of deviation, prevents costly batch failures.
In plastics extrusion, the controller manages barrel temperatures to ensure uniform melt viscosity, reducing defects in final products. Across these industries, the E300-04380A performs reliably, even in the electrically noisy environments common near industrial motors and drives, thanks to its robust noise immunity.

Installation and maintenance:
Before installing the E300-04380A, verify that sensor types match the controller’s input specifications—thermocouple wiring must include proper compensation for cold junction effects, details outlined in the manual. Ensure the mounting cutout conforms to DIN 43700 standards to prevent panel flexing that could damage internal components. Check that the power supply is stable; voltage fluctuations beyond ±10% can affect measurement accuracy. For systems requiring data logging, confirm that the controller’s memory capacity (8,000 data points) meets your storage needs, or plan for periodic data retrieval.
Ongoing maintenance for theE300-04380Ais straightforward but critical. Weekly, verify that the display readings match a calibrated reference instrument—small drifts can occur over time, especially in high-vibration environments. Monthly, inspect input terminals for corrosion, which is common in humid areas, and tighten any loose connections. Annually, perform a full calibration using the controller’s built-in calibration routine, which guides the user through step-by-step adjustments. The E300-04380A’s self-diagnostic feature continuously monitors internal components, alerting operators to issues like sensor failures or memory errors before they affect process control.
