How to Calibrate TCR-M Temperature Controller Using a Potentiometer
This article walks you through the process of calibrating the TCR-M temperature controller using a potentiometer and verifying its output function. Precise calibration ensures the controller performs reliably in industrial applications.
The TCR-M Temperature Controller is a reliable solution for precise thermal control in industrial systems. For engineers and technicians, proper calibration using a potentiometer is essential to ensure accuracy and performance.
In this video, we demonstrate how to calibrate the TCR-M temperature controller using a DC potentiometer.
You'll learn how to simulate analog input, adjust PV values, set target temperatures (SV), and test relay output (OUT) to ensure reliable control performance.
✅ Key Steps Covered:
• Potentiometer connection and adjustment
• PV and SV alignment
• Relay output triggering and verification
• Practical usage tips
✅ Applications of TCR-M with Manual Calibration
- Manual testing in heating press systems
- Custom analog control setups (using resistance or voltage input)
- Field repair and debugging without thermocouple or RTD
- R&D labs testing relay triggering thresholds
