🔍 Product Overview
The HYDE PARK MC381 Trip Controller is engineered for fluid handling and bulk material systems where overfill or empty-container conditions pose safety or quality risks. By monitoring level-switch inputs and configurable delays, the MC381 provides precise “no-fill” and “no-container” interlocks to prevent spills or dry cycling. Its wide power range and low power draw make installation straightforward across varied industrial sites.
Built around a high‑speed microcontroller, the MC381 responds in under 100 milliseconds to unsafe conditions, opening or closing process valves via Form C relays. A compact LED display and simple push‑button interface allow quick setup of trip thresholds, time delays, and auto-reset parameters, minimizing commissioning time. Rugged IP20 packaging and both DIN‑rail and panel mounting options ensure seamless integration into control panels or skid-mounted consoles.
💡 Key Features
- ⚡ Fast Response: Trip action in under 100 ms to avoid material overflows or pump dry runs.
- 🔒 Dual-Mode Protection: Simultaneous no-container and no-fill logic for versatile process safety.
- 🖥️ Intuitive Interface: Four tactile buttons and clear LED indicators simplify parameter adjustment.
- 🔄 Configurable Delays: Set up to 30 seconds delay before trip or auto-reset to prevent nuisance trips.
- 🌐 Universal Power: Accepts 100–240 VAC to support global installations without voltage adapters.
- 🛠️ Easy Mounting: Din‑rail or panel options suit panel shops and field retrofits equally.
🏭 Applications
- 🚚 Bulk Bag Filling Lines: Stops filler discharge if container absence is detected, ensuring safety and material control.
- 🛢️ Tank Loading Systems: Prevents overfills by enforcing no-container logic ahead of loading arms.
- 🌾 Grain Elevators: Protects conveyors and loaders from “dry run” damage when hopper levels drop below safe thresholds.
- 💧 Water Treatment Plants: Guards pumps from running dry by tripping on low-level conditions.
- 🏭 Chemical Dosing Units: Ensures chemical injectors only operate when appropriate containment is present.
📰 Industry News
Global manufacturers are increasingly adopting smart interlock controllers as part of Industry 4.0–driven safety upgrades. According to recent reports, implementation of dedicated trip controllers reduces overfill incidents by up to 70%, cutting waste and liability costs. Meanwhile, regulatory bodies in Europe and North America have introduced more stringent spill-prevention guidelines, inspiring process engineers to integrate redundant level sensing and trip logic into new and retrofit projects. The HYDE PARK MC381 aligns with these trends, providing a simple yet robust solution for critical interlocks.
