That means you get independent alarm, event, or control outputs on the relays while the SSR output handles the heating element directly — no need for an interposing relay on the PID loop. Input range covers -200°C to 2300°C across thermocouple types B, E, J, K, L, N, PLII, R, S, T, U, W and RTD, plus 0-20 mA or 0-10 VDC process signals. One controller handles both temperature and linear process loops without a separate signal conditioner. ## Panel cutout and IP66 — fits the washdown zone The 92.00 mm x 45.00 mm rectangular cutout matches the standard 1/4 DIN footprint — drops into existing panel punches without adapter plates. Screw-terminal connections on the rear mean no special crimp tooling for field wiring. IP66 rating on the front panel means the controller survives hose-down cleaning in food, beverage, or pharmaceutical lines. The seal is between the bezel and the panel gasket, not the housing threads — verify the panel surface is flat and the gasket seats evenly before tightening the mounting brackets. ## Active production — no LTB pressure on this BOM line Lifecycle status is active per the manufacturer — no last-time-buy notice, no end-of-life clock running. The tri-color LCD backlight shows four characters per row across three rows — 0.710\", 0.433\", and 0.307\" character heights. The largest row is readable from across a panel for at-a-glance process value monitoring.","metaTitle":"Omron E5EC-TQX4A5M-000 Process Controller, 4 Relay + SSR","metaDescription":"Omron E5EC-TQX4A5M-000 process/temperature controller, 4 relay + voltage (SSR) outputs, 100-240VAC supply, IP66 front.

If you need serial comms or heater current monitoring, that is the step-up variant.

The wiring pattern differs because the TQX4A5M-000 has four relays plus an SSR voltage output, while the TRR4A5M-008 has six relays and an RS-485 port.
