To showcase the flexibility of the Partlow 1160 control module, below are described a number of possible configurations:

Heating:  Utilizing a thermocouple, the Partlow 1160 controls a SSR which operates a bank of heaters in a ceramic kiln.

Cooling:  Utilizing an RTD (Resistance Temperature Detector), the Partlow 1160 controls two starters, one of which operates a pump to a cooling tower, the other which operates the fan of the cooling tower.

Level control:  Utilizing an ultrasonic level sensor, the Partlow 1160 controls a variable frequency drive, altering the flow of a pump to maintain fluid level.

Plant-wide heat duty:  Utilizing a pressure transducer, the Partlow 1160 monitors boiler pressure.  As the pressure is reduced, the Partlow feeds the data to a supervisory computer.  This supervisory computer updates the upper limit of other Partlow 1160's controlling various heat valves throughout the plant, reducing the load on the boiler and balancing the demand of each individual control valve.
