Modular Temperature Controller
EJ1
In-panel Temperature Controller with Flexible Modular
Design and Wide Integration with Host Devices
• The compact modular structure enables construction of temperature
systems optimally suited to the application.
• Connection can be made to a Programmable Controller without any
programming required, reducing the number of steps required in ladder
programming design.
• One fully universal-input Unit includes a thermocouple, platinum-resistance
thermometer, and analog input for easy selection and reduced inventory
requirements.
• Connect directly to the G3ZA Multi-channel Power Controller using optimum
cycle control for high-accuracy regulation with minimal noise.
• Autotuning (AT) can be used for independent heating/cooling PID control,
and self-tuning (ST) can be used to calculate the PID constants with the step
response method.
• Up to 16 Temperature Controllers can be connected to a single DeviceNet
Communications Unit.
Supports DeviceNet Communications.

An End Unit is always required for connection to a Basic Unit or an HFU. An HFU cannot operate without a Basic Unit. External communications cannot be performed when using a
Basic Unit only.
For heating/cooling control applications, control outputs 3 and 4 on the 2-point models are used for the cooling or heating control outputs.
On the 4-point models, heating/cooling control is performed for the two input points.
When using the heater burnout alarm, purchase a Current Transformer (E54-CT1 or E54-CT3) separately.
Functional Upgrades
Refer to page 18 for details.
Upgrade functions are supported by the indicated version ("V1.1" or "V1.2") or a higher version of the software.

■ Programless Communications
Communications with PLCs from OMRON (SYSMAC CS/CJ/CP Series) and Mitsubishi Electric (MELSEC-Q/QnA/QnAS/An/Ans/FX3UC Series) can
be performed without creating ladder programming.
Using programless communications enables monitoring and changing settings for the EJ1 by simply reading and writing to PLC memory.
The EJ1 automatically performs communications with the PLC, which reduces work hours spent programming for communications from the PLC
to the EJ1.

Connection
■ External Connection
• Functional insulation is applied between the power supply and the I/O sections. If reinforced insulation is required, connect the input
and output terminals to devices without any exposed current-carrying parts or to devices with reinforced insulation suitable for the
maximum operating voltage of the power supply and I/O sections.
• To comply with the standards for noise terminal voltage for class A in EN 61326, install a noise filter (Densei Lamda MXB-1206-33 or
the equivalent) to the DC power line as close as possible to the Temperature Controller.
• Use an SELV power supply that provides overcurrent protection. An SELV circuit is one separated from the power supply with double
insulation or reinforced insulation, that does exceed an output voltage of 30 V r.m.s. and 42.4 V peak or 60 VDC max. The OMROM
S8VM or S8VS Series is recommended for the power supply.

Safety Precautions
!CAUTION
Do not touch the terminals while power is being supplied.
Doing so may occasionally result in minor injury due to
electric shock.
Use a power supply that complies with the reinforced
insulation specified in IEC 60664 for the EJ1 external
power supply or the power supply connected to the EJ1.
If non-compliant power supplies are used, electric shock
may occasionally result in minor injury.
Do not allow pieces of metal, wire clippings, or fine
metallic shavings or filings from installation to enter the
product. Doing so may occasionally result in electric
shock, fire, or malfunction.
Do not use the product where subject to flammable or
explosive gas. Otherwise, minor injury from explosion
may occasionally occur.
Never disassemble, modify, or repair the product or touch
any of the internal parts. Minor electric shock, fire, or
malfunction may occasionally occur.
Tighten the terminal screws to between 0.40 and
0.56 N·m. Loose screws may occasionally result in fire.
Set the parameters of the product so that they are
suitable for the system being controlled. If they are not
suitable, unexpected operation may occasionally result in
property damage or accidents.
A malfunction in the product may occasionally make
control operations impossible or prevent alarm outputs,
resulting in property damage. To maintain safety in the
event of malfunction of the product, take appropriate
safety measures, such as installing a monitoring device
on a separate line.
■ Precautions for Safe Use
Observe the following points to ensure safe operation.
1. The product is designed for indoor use only. Do not use the
product outdoors or in any of the following locations.
• Places directly subject to heat radiated from heating equipment
7. Allow as much space as possible between the product and
devices that generate a powerful high-frequency or surge.
Separate the high-voltage or large-current power lines from other
lines, and avoid parallel or common wiring with the power lines
when you are wiring to the terminals.
8. Use the product within the rated load and power supply.
9. Make sure that the rated voltage is attained within two seconds of
turning ON the power.
10.It takes 30 minutes from the time the Temperature Controller is
turned ON until the current temperature is displayed. Always turns
ON the power supply at least 30 minutes before starting
temperature control.
11.The switch or circuit breaker must be within easy reach of the
operator, and must be marked as a disconnecting means for this
unit.
12.Do not use paint thinner or similar chemical to clean with. Use
standard grade alcohol.
13.Design the system (e.g., the control panel) allowing leeway for the
delay required before product outputs are valid after turning ON

1. Use the product within the following temperature and humidity
ranges:
Temperature: −10°C to 55°C (with no condensation or icing)
Humidity:
25% to 85%
Installation
2. The service life of electronic devices like Temperature Controllers
is determined not only by the number of times the relay is
switched but also by the service life of internal electronic
components. Component service life is affected by the ambient
temperature: the higher the temperature, the shorter the service
life and the lower the temperature, the longer the service life.
Therefore, the service life can be extended by lowering the
temperature of the Temperature Controller.
3. Mounting two or more Temperature Controllers side by side, or
mounting Temperature Controllers above each other may cause
heat to build up inside the Temperature Controllers, which will
shorten their service life. If the Temperature Controllers are
mounted above each other or side by side, use forced cooling by
fans or other means of air ventilation to cool down the
Temperature Controllers.
However, be sure not to cool only the terminals. Doing so will
result in measurement errors.
Insert a flat-blade screwdriver with a width of
2.5 mm into the operation hole, insert the
wire into the wire hole, and then remove the
screwdriver. The wire will be clamped.
Use crimp terminals that are suitable for the
cross-sectional area of the wire.
Recommended crimp terminals:
Weidmuller H-sleeve series

Service Life
When the Temperature Controller is incorporated in a control
panel, make sure that the controller's ambient temperature and
not the panel's ambient temperature does not exceed 55°C.
There are two holes for each terminal. The
hole on the right is the operation hole and
the hole on the left is the wire hole.

Connecting Units
1. Align the connectors and connect the Units to each other.
Connect an End Unit to the Unit on the right end.
Note: 1. Do not connect the End Unit directly to an HFU.
2. Connect the End Unit to the right side of a Basic Unit.
2. Slide the yellow sliders on the top and bottom of the Units until
they click into place.
Ensuring Measurement Accuracy
1. When extending or connecting the thermocouple lead wire, be
sure to use compensating wires that match the thermocouple
types.
2. When extending or connecting the lead wire of the platinum
resistance thermometer, be sure to use wires that have low
resistance and keep the resistance of the three lead wires the
same.
3. Mount the Temperature Controller so that it is horizontally level.
4. If the measurement accuracy is low, check to see if input shift has
been set correctly.

Slider
3. Attach the cover seal to the connector opening on the Unit on the
left end of the EJ1.
Precautions for Operation
1. A certain amount of time is required for the outputs to turn ON
from the time the power supply is turned ON. Due consideration
must be given to this time when incorporating Temperature
Controllers in a sequence circuit.
2. It takes 30 minutes from the time the Temperature Controller is
turned ON until the current temperature is displayed. Always turns
ON the power supply at least 30 minutes before starting
temperature control.
3. Avoid using the Temperature Controller near a radio, television
set, or other wireless device. Its use would result in reception
disturbance.

• Concept behind the Number of SSRs That
Can Be Connected in Parallel
(A): The maximum load current for the voltage
output (to drive SSRs) for the Temperature
Controller is 21 mA.
(B): The input impedance for SSRs is 7 mA
(G3NA).
In this case, the number of SSRs that can
be connected in parallel is (A) ÷ (B),
therefore 3.
The maximum load current in the connection
example is 21 mA.
