| Drum Filling Application Utilizing Two Relay Outputs |
 |
In this drum filling application, the Laureate pulse-input batch controller utilizes uses its two relays to control a pump. The Prewarn relay slows down the pump near the preset to avoid overshoot. The Batch relay stops the pump at the preset. |
| Controlling Chemical Mixing of Materials |
 |
Multiple Laureate batch controllers can be used in combination to control the mixing of materials in the proper ratio. Each feed line is equipped with its own pump, flowmeter, and Laureate.
Controller setup and monitoring of the mixing operation are facilitated by optional serial communications. RS-485 allows a single data line to handle multiple controllers. |
| Up-Counting Batch Control |
 | In up-counting batch control, the Laureate counts up from zero to a preset maximum. A prewarn level is available to slow down filling near the preset to avoid overshoot. A time delay can be programmed from the end of each batch to the start of the next batch. |
| Down-Counting Batch Control |
 | In down-counting batch control, the Laureate counts down from the preset maximum to zero. A prewarn level is available to slow down filling or emptying near zero. Again, a time delay can be programmed from the end of each batch to the start of the next batch. |
| Discrete Filling and Batch Counting |
 | The Laureate batch controller is ideal for discrete manufacturing as well as repetitive fill operations. In this example, the Laureate counts bottles which it then groups into sixpacks. Its Grand Total capability can be used to track bottles or sixpacks. |
