The Omron E5EC-TQX4D5M-000 is a panel-mount process and temperature controller from the E5EC-T series, accepting inputs from RTDs and thermocouples (types B, E, J, K, L, N, PLII, R, S, T, U, W) as well as 0–20 mA or 0–10 VDC process signals — so it covers both temperature loops and analog process variables like pressure or flow in a single unit. Its input range spans -200°C to 2300°C for thermocouple/RTD inputs, and 0–20 mA or 0–10 VDC for process signals, making it suitable for furnace, oven, autoclave, or general process control applications where a single controller must handle both temperature and linear process inputs.
Outputs and control method
Four relay outputs handle on/off or PID-driven switching of heaters, contactors, or solenoid valves, while a voltage pulse output drives an external SSR for faster cycling on resistive loads — a common pairing for electric heater control where the relays carry the alarm or event outputs and the SSR handles the main heating element. Control method is selectable between on/off and proportional (PID), with the PID algorithm tuned to the process via the front-panel interface; the tri-color LCD backlight changes color to indicate status (e.g., green for run, red for alarm) without needing a separate indicator lamp.
Supply voltage and panel fit
Runs on 24 VAC or 24 VDC — a universal supply that simplifies wiring in panels where both AC and DC control voltages exist, and eliminates the need for a separate power supply module when the cabinet already has a 24 VDC bus. Panel cutout is 92.00 mm x 45.00 mm. The front bezel is IP66-rated.
