ADM Stocks Eurotherm EPC3016 Series Process Controllers

21 April 2022

ADM stocks the Eurotherm EPC3016 series process controllers.

There are many options available within the EPC3016 range, which means it is impossible for us to carry inventory of every single permutation possible.

Therefore, we carry four variants that should cover most applications in Australia:

Model Number	Function	Power Supply	Outputs	Comms
EPC3016/ CP/VL//// CE//ST//	1 x program 8 segment	24v DC or AC	Nil	Ethernet (MODBUS TCP) c/w 1 x digital contact input
EPC3016/ CP/VH//// CE//ST//	1 x program 8 segment	100~230 VAC	Nil
EPC3016/ CP/VH/L2/ R1//CE//ST//	1 x program 8 segment	100~230 VAC	1 Logic 1 Relay
EPC3016/ P10/VH/L2 /R1/XX/CE/ XX/ST	Advanced programmer 10 x 24 Segment Programs	100~230 VAC	1 Logic 1 Relay

ADM stocks a variety of output modules, giving us the ability to supply many variations to meet your specific engineering requirements.

Configurable Process Controllers

ADM can preconfigure the process controllers for your application prior to dispatch.

For example, you may want us to program a ‘recipe’ into the controller, so it is ready to use out of the box. This can speed up the installation process.

Machine Safety Applications

The Eurotherm EPC3016 controllers can be used in a machine to control its safety features.

This is because they have been assessed to EN ISO 13849-1 Performance Level (‘PL’) ‘c’. This is equivalent to SIL 1.

This performance level is used by the machine designer as part of the risk assessment. It must be stressed that the responsibility for the safety of the machine rests with the machine designer.

The table below shows the 5 performance levels under EN ISO 13849 and the average probability of a dangerous failure for each level:
