March 26, 2025 [Storage Terminals Magazine]- ECF has introduced its innovative Accu-Temp temperature monitoring and control system to industrial markets. Designed to automate temperature regulation, Accu-Temp integrates sensors, control valves, and control panels to maintain optimal conditions without the need for human intervention.

High Precision with Minimal Supervision

Temperature control is a critical yet labour-intensive task in industrial settings. Manual monitoring not only requires additional personnel but also increases the risk of human error. Accu-Temp eliminates these concerns by providing automated temperature adjustments, ensuring consistent performance with minimal oversight. An optional remote setpoint and alarm feature allows for real-time monitoring and on-the-go adjustments, improving operational efficiency while reducing staffing requirements.

Advanced Functionality & Design

The Accu-Temp system includes:

• A temperature sensor, modulating control valve, and pre-wired control panel for seamless integration.

• A pre-programmed temperature controller that works with the modulating control valve to maintain the desired temperature.

• A temperature control panel equipped with a disconnect switch, PID temperature controller, alarm horn/light, and necessary terminal blocks.

• An optional digital input feature for emergency shut-off at low levels (tank level sensor not included).

Key Benefits of Accu-Temp

• Precision & Reliability: Ensures accurate temperature control for industrial applications, removing guesswork.

• Energy Efficiency: Reduces unnecessary energy consumption by automatically adjusting temperatures, preventing overheating or excessive heating cycles.

• Product Consistency: Maintains uniform heating conditions, ensuring product quality regardless of tank size or operator involvement.

• Safety Enhancements: Features an emergency shut-off capability to prevent coil exposure, overheating, and other potential hazards, safeguarding both equipment and personnel.

Industrial Applications

Accu-Temp is ideal for:

• Tanks requiring regulated heating to maintain consistent temperatures.

• Industrial processes involving heat exchange temperature control.

• Facilities looking to reduce labour costs and improve operational efficiency through automation.

A Smart Investment for Industrial Efficiency

For industries still relying on manual temperature control, Accu-Temp offers a reliable and efficient alternative. ECF engineers are available to provide further information, product overviews, and installation quotes tailored to specific site requirements.
