PID Temperature Controllers

Shimax Digital PID Temperature Controllers

Elmec Heaters & Controllers has introduced the world class Shimax range of PID temperature controllers, MAC3 & MAC5 series. Shimax is one of the well-known manufacturers of temperature controllers and power controllers in Japan. Shimax products are strong in quality and performance. Shimax controllers and power controllers already enjoy a good share of marker in East Asian and European countries. Shimax temperature controllers are space saving – the depth of the controller is 62-65 mm. It has multi input, 1 main output 2 event outputs and big display as standard features. There are also optional features such as DI, CT input, analog output, and communication and program functions.

Key Features:
  • Control Method: Phase Control & Zero-Cross Switching Cycle Operation Control
  • Multi-Input: Current/voltage/Contact. Voltage Pulse (SSR Drive Voltage) You can choose either a phase control or Zero-cross switching cycle operation control in both cases of contact proportion input and voltage pulse (SSR drive voltage) input
  • Input/output values and many kids of parameters are displayed
  • Output soft-start/slow up/ slow down function is equipped as a standard function, (0.00~25.os)
  • Free Voltage (100~240V AC)
  • Automatic Distinction of Power Supply Frequency Range 45~65Hz
Frequently Asked Questions

PID temperature controllers are advanced electronic devices that use Proportional, Integral, and Derivative algorithms to automatically regulate process temperatures. It continuously compares the measured temperature to a setpoint and adjusts the output to minimize error, resulting in stable and precise control.

PID controllers are widely used in plastic extrusion, injection molding, oven control, HVAC systems, chemical processing, and packaging machines.
We build PID controllers with microprocessor-based technology, bright digital displays, thermocouple and RTD compatibility, and industrial-grade components to withstand harsh factory conditions.
PID controllers are known for their accuracy, stability, and efficiency in maintaining a desired setpoint with minimal error.
Use a PID controller when your process requires tight temperature tolerances, minimal fluctuation, and long-term consistency—ideal for complex industrial applications where precision matters.
A single-loop PID controller regulates one process variable, while a multi-loop PID controller can regulate multiple process variables simultaneously.
