Control Panels

Wired LCD control panels for fan coil, thermostat and heating control, with memory, backlight and proportional-plus-integral control.

Overview

What This Category Covers

Wired control panels are the oldest part of the business and still the clearest proof of our electronics capability. The platform covers fan-coil control, Cb thermostat, proportional plus integral control, electric and water heating control, three-wire systems and 9-10 V control, in a 163 x 45 x 21 mm ABS housing with a backlit LCD.

Who Buys It

  • HVAC and fan-coil manufacturers
  • Underfloor and radiator heating system builders
  • Building control integrators specifying a room unit
  • Appliance OEMs that need a wired panel to match a remote

Problems It Solves

  • Panels that lose their settings when the battery is changed
  • Backlights that wash out the LCD at an angle
  • A panel that only supports one control mode, forcing a second part number
  • Long lead times on a low-volume but launch-critical part
Core Advantages

One Panel Covering Every Control Mode You Are Likely To Need

Six control modes in one part number

Fan coil, Cb thermostat, proportional plus integral, electric heating, water heating and 9-10 V control, plus three-wire system support.

Power-off memory as standard

Settings survive a battery change, which removes the most common service call on a room unit.

Backlit LCD

Readable at an angle and in a dark plant room, not only straight on in a showroom.

Fixed 163 x 45 x 21 mm envelope

A stable mechanical envelope in ABS, so a faceplate change does not become a mechanical redesign.

Quality Control

Four Inspection Stages Between A Raw Material And Your Container

25 QC staff run these stages under an ISO 9001:2015 system.

IQC - Incoming Quality Control

Tests the physical and chemical performance of every raw material and records supplier quality. Materials that meet the standard go to the warehouse; those that do not are rejected.

IPQC - In-Process Quality Control

QC stations are set up at every process step on the line so that a defect is caught at the station that created it rather than at final assembly.

FQC - Final Quality Control

Finished goods are inspected to the AQL standard, or 100% inspected when the programme calls for it.

QA - Quality Assurance

Wear, tear and misuse testing, plus a warehouse inspection of the packed goods before delivery.

Raw material testing, PCBA testing and aging testing are carried out at 100 percent. Defective rate can be within 0.3-0.8%.
