Delta DTC DIN-rail modular controllers and DTI4848 panel PID instruments — supplied loose, or wired into tested heating-zone panels for extruders and process machinery.
Process Control
On an extruder, an oven, or a sealing bar, product quality is temperature stability. We supply Delta's two workhorse families: the DTC series — DIN-rail modules in master/extension configurations with RS-485 Modbus, ideal for multi-zone control from inside a panel — and the DTI4848, the classic 48×48 mm panel PID instrument with local display for one-zone-per-instrument machines.
And because heating zones never live alone, we wire them into complete panels with SSRs or contactors, alarms, and interlocks to the drive — the same shop that supplies your extruder gearbox and screw drive VFD.
Engineering Data
| Family | Format | Outputs | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| Delta DTC1000 / DTC2000 (+1001 / 2001) | DIN-rail modules, master + extension units | R relay · V SSR-pulse · C 4–20 mA · L linear | Multi-zone control inside panels, monitored over RS-485 Modbus |
| Delta DTI4848 (VO / RO) | 48×48 mm panel-mount, front display | Voltage-pulse or relay output models | Local operator setpoint, one instrument per zone |
Both families take thermocouple and RTD inputs and offer PID or on/off control. Sensor types, alarm configurations, and exact I/O per model are confirmed on the Delta datasheet at quotation.
Complete Range
The final letter of a DTC model is its output type: C = 4–20 mA current, L = linear analog, R = relay, V = voltage pulse for SSR drive.
Master and extension units with RS-485 Modbus. Output code: C = 4–20 mA current, L = linear analog, R = relay, V = voltage pulse for SSR drive.

The Anand Gears Advantage
Zone controllers, SSRs, thermocouple terminations, and over-temperature interlocks to the screw drive — built to match your extruder gearbox line.
DTC modules report over Modbus to the PLC and display on the HMI — setpoints, actuals, and alarms on one screen.
Every heating-zone panel is function-tested with simulated sensor inputs, and ships with as-built drawings and a test certificate.
Industry Solutions
Barrel and die zone control — the classic multi-zone DTC application, alongside our extruder gearboxes.
Sealing-bar and hot-wire temperature on form-fill-seal machines — stable seals at line speed with packaging drives.
Fryers, ovens, and kettles in food plants — PID hold with alarm interlocks.
Die and platen heating on presses and moulding machines, with SSR-pulse outputs for fast cycling.
Multi-zone dryers and curing tunnels — DTC master/extension chains keep zone counts economical.
Swapping failed panel instruments like-for-like — 48×48 DTI models drop into the standard cutout.
Common Questions
The Delta DTC series — DIN-rail modular controllers in master and extension configurations with RS-485 Modbus communication — and the Delta DTI4848, a 48×48 mm panel-mount PID controller with front display. Both families offer PID and on/off control with thermocouple and RTD inputs.
The letter at the end of a DTC model number is the control output type: C is 4–20 mA current output, L is linear analog voltage, R is a relay output, and V is a voltage pulse for driving a solid-state relay (SSR). Pick R for contactor-switched heaters, V for SSR-switched heaters that cycle fast, and C or L to command a power controller.
Use DTC modules when the loops live inside a control panel and are monitored over Modbus from a PLC or HMI — a master unit plus extension units scales to many zones compactly. Use the DTI4848 when the operator needs a local display and setpoint buttons at the machine, one instrument per zone.
Yes. A typical extruder barrel package is DTC modules or DTI instruments per zone, SSRs or contactors, thermocouple terminations, and alarm interlocks to the drive — wired and function-tested in our Thane panel shop, and integrated with the PLC and HMI when the machine has them.
