My work has a temp control setup with Omron E5CN temp controller and an SSR. I am not sure what type of control output it has. (relay, voltage, current output) I know it's E5CN. So, here is my question... The manual shows different output types of the temp controller. Do certain models come with specific output types, or is the output type something I can configure?
The one at my work has L1 to one terminal of the output contact, and SSR to the other terminal of the output contact (as if the control output was just a contact that closes when the PV is below the SP). So, that tells me that the control output is a relay type. But then why SSR? Why not connect the contact directly to the heater?
Thanks
