Siemens FM455 Controller Module

Manufacturer: Siemens

The temperature controller with integrated self-setting is suitable for controlled systems where the entire process has approximately the same temperature when the setpoint is reached, as is the case in water bath controls, steam boiler controls or injection molding machines.

The procedure is unsuitable for controlled systems where the temperature in a significant portion of the process still varies significantly after the setpoint has been reached, as is the case in furnace controls where the air heats up and the temperature is measured. When the air temperature has reached the setpoint, the furnace and its contents can still be cold.

A configuring package is available for parameterizing the FM 455. This contains all the screen forms required for configuring, parameterization and startup.

Detailed online Help is available for all screen forms.

The parameterization screen forms are called up from STEP 7 following installation.
