Modular Temperature Controller
EJ1
CSM_EJ1_DS_E_12_5
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.
• 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.

*1. 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.
*2. 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.
*3. When using the heater burnout alarm, purchase a Current Transformer (E54-CT1 or E54-CT3) separately.
Note: Products for the EtherCAT master are also available. Ask your OMRON sales representative for details.

Programless Communications
Communications with PLCs from OMRON (CS/CJ/CP/NJ 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 S8VS Series is
recommended for the power supply.

• Places subject to intense temperature change
• Places subject to icing or condensation
• Places subject to vibration or strong shocks
2. Use and store the product within the rated temperature and
humidity ranges. Provide forced-cooling if required.
3. To allow heat to escape, do not block the area around the product.
Do not block the ventilation holes on the product.
4. Be sure to wire properly with correct polarity of terminals.
5. Use specified size (M3, width 5.8 mm or less) crimped terminals
for wiring. To connect bare wires to the terminal block, use copper
braided or solid wires with a gage of AWG22 to AWG14 (equal to
cross-sectional area of 0.326 to 2.081 mm2) for power supply lines
and a gage of AWG28 to AWG16 (equal to cross-sectional area of
0.081 to 1.309 mm2). (The stripping length is 6 to 8 mm.)
6. Do not wire terminals that do not have an identified use.
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
power to the product.
14.Never touch the electronic components, connectors, or patterns
on product boards with your bare hands. Always hold the product
by the case. Inappropriately handling the product may
occasionally damage internal components due to static electricity.
15.Use a switch, relay, or other device with contacts to turn OFF the
power supply quickly. Gradually lowering the voltage of the power
supply may result in incorrect outputs or memory errors.
16.Do not touch the electronic components with your hands or subject
them to shock when removing the terminal block.
17.Connect only the specified number of products in only a specified
configuration.
18.Mount the product to a DIN Rail mounted vertically to the ground.
19.Always turn OFF the power supply before wiring the product,
replacing the product, or changing the product configuration.
20.Attach the enclosed cover seal to the connector opening on the left

Connecting Units
1. Align the connectors and connect the Units to each other. Connect
an End Unit to the Unit on the right end.
Do not connect the End Unit directly to an HFU.
Connect the End Unit to the right side of a Basic Unit.
Connect the HFU to the left side of the Basic Units.
The Temperature Controller cannot be used as a CJ-series Unit.
Use the EJ1G-@@ for gradient temperature control. When not
using gradient temperature control, use the EJ1N-@@.
6. When removing the terminal block to replace a Unit, be sure that
the new Unit is the same as the Unit that is being replaced.
Service Life
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%
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.
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.
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.
Lock
Slider
3. Attach the cover seal to the connector opening on the Unit on the
left end of the EJ1.
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.
Cover Seal
Removing the Terminal Block
1. Press down the terminal block lever.
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.
Lower the lever.
2. Pull out the terminal block.

• 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.
