Introduction

Industrial processing factories require temperature control units (TCUs) for a wide range of purposes – from heating batches of tomato soup to extruding plastic pipe to maintaining a consistent temperature in active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). A common application for TCUs is warming injection molds at the start of the process and keeping them at a cooler setpoint during production.

But plant operators face certain common problems with controlling process temperature – including drops in supply water pressure, costly and inefficient maintenance, slow or inaccurate heating or cooling, and difficulties with troubleshooting. Two new members of the historically dependable TrueTemp® temperature control family, the TC130 and TC131, minimize or eliminate these issues with advanced smart control. Building upon more than 60 years of TCU engineering experience, recent technology upgrades make possible safer, more reliable control of heating and cooling processes, while increasing uptime, preventing shutdowns, and reducing maintenance costs.
