The ¼ din IP65 sealed instrument benefits from PID self tuning with bumpless auto/manual switching is a standard feature on all Series 3000 instruments, and will accept one input of a universal type (+/- 1 or 10V analogue, current analogue using external shunt, standard thermocouples, mV/mA process signals and RTDs), and two of a digital type for performing various functions such as starting a profile, unlatching alarms and switching between auto and manual mode. Six buttons make all parameters quick and easy to access for operators, and a password facility enables engineers to access all settings for profile setting and reconfiguration. P3000 instruments store and execute up to 50 profiles of up to 10 segments each for each of two control loops. Six buttons make all parameters quick and easy to access for operators, and a password facility enables engineers to access all settings for profile setting and reconfiguration. RS485/422 serial communications options are available and The Proteus 3000 units can be mixed with S & P1000, S & P2000, P450 and RDA instruments as the same, widely supported, protocol is used throughout. All configuration and operational parameters can be accessed via serial communications for in-service data acquisition, or setting up and calibration on the bench. The dual colour displays (One of 12mm and the other of 9mm) show the measured variable (+/- 9999 digits) and the instruments setpoint (99999 digits). A 10 element bargraph is also integrated to show heating and cooling outputs or motorised-valve positioning. The number of outputs are dependent on the instrument model, which can support up to five output boards. These can be in the form of a relay, logic signal, 10V analogue, 20mA analogue or event relay driver, user configurable within the instruments software. RS422/485 serial communications are available on the 3040 series, with baud rates of 1200, 2400, 4800 or 9600. This enables the instrument to communicate with a PLC, a P.C. or other FGH products within a system. There are a number of different models available within the 3000 Series.

Proteus S3000 Series Controller The S3000 is the entry level model in the series, a powerful auto-tuning controller for stand alone process control applications.
In normal operation dual displays, a bar graph showing power output, distinctively shaped tactile controls and control layout make the Proteus 3000 instruments exceptionally easy to use. Thirteen status LEDs display alarms, auto-manual status, tuning and other parameters clearly and unambiguously. Auto-manual is simple and foolproof to use. The display may be set to show output power in place of setpoint, indicated by a status light, alongside the normal display of measured variable. A unique four key sequence code prevents tampering, while giving the engineer fast access to the unparalleled flexibility of the proteus series. Once the correct password is entered, the user has access to a reconfiguration menu scroll consisting of easy to understand mnemonics of five characters in place of the usual four. It is also possible to move both forwards and backwards in the menu scroll, a great time saver. Its not only what is in the Proteus 3000 that makes it such a good investment, but the knowledge that it can be upgraded in the future if your needs change. The entry level S3000 has two input/output slots, capable of supporting two voltage free relay outputs, or one relay and one analogue output. These may be configured for control output plus alarm, heat-cool outputs, and many other combinations. modules can be added at any time, making the S3000 a very flexible choice for instrument departments which need to carry spares, and for stocking distributors, who are able to provide many Proteus 3000 models ex-stock from a modest inventory.
Proteus S3040 Series Controller The S3040 is the top of the range process controller in the series, a powerful communicating, auto-tuning controller with analogue and digital communications for integration into larger control schemes.
In normal operation dual displays, a bar graph showing power output, distinctively shaped tactile controls and control layout make the Proteus 3040 instruments exceptionally easy to use. Thirteen status LEDs display alarms, auto-manual status, tuning and other parameters clearly and unambiguously. Auto-manual is simple and foolproof to use.

It is also possible to move both forwards and backwards in the menu scroll, a great time saver. The powerful S3040 has six input/output slots, capable of supporting numerous combinations of voltage free relay outputs, analogue outputs, analogue remote setpoint input, transmitter power supply, motorised valve slidewire input and serial digital communications. The configurations available are almost endless, and the S3040 can be reconfigured at any time. Modules can also be added at any time, making the S3040 a very flexible choice for instrument departments which need to carry spares, and for stocking distributors, who are able to provide many Proteus 3000 models ex-stock from a modest inventory.
The P3000 is the low cost profiler in the Proteus family, an exceptionally powerful controller/profiler, which computes and stores a process model and modifies its control criteria dynamically as the profile is executed.
The P3000 provides up to 10 profiles, each of up to 25 segments, and up to 2 event relays programmable in any combination on each segment. In normal operation, the operator has only to select the desired profile and press start; the P3000 does the rest. It even determines the current value of the process variable and starts the profile from that point. Our advanced process model technique keeps the P3000 firmly in control, even on difficult plants with large gain or lag changes during a profile, and dual displays and numerous status indicators show precisely what is happening. For an unattended plant, a delayed start facility allows the operator to enter a value in hours and minutes, after which the profile will start automatically. Remote control inputs also allow starting from an external timer or PLC. For cyclic testing, up to 999 repeats of the profile can be pre-programmed. Clear mnemonics, simple controls and programming in easy to understand hours/minutes format make the P3000 exceptionally user friendly. A unique four key sequence code prevents tampering, while giving the engineer fast access to the unparalleled flexibility of the Proteus series. Once the correct password is entered, the user has access to a reconfiguration menu scroll consisting of easy to understand mnemonics of five characters in place of the usual four. It is also possible to move both forwards and backwards in the menu scroll, a great time saver. For profiled control applications, the P3000 auto-tuning algorithm is used to compute a process model during commissioning, and to use this information to adapt the PID terms during the execution of profiles in order to take account of plant gain and lag changes before they cause control errors. Like all the other members of the Proteus family, the P3000 has modular input/output which can be expanded at any time, making it a very flexible choice for instrument departments which need to carry spares, and for stocking distributors, who are able to provide many Proteus 3000 models ex-stock from a modest inventory.
