Jamesway's
PS500 is a cost effective conversion that precisely monitors and maintains the
environment within the incubator.
Jamesway's new PS500
Controller for multistage incubators and hatchers has been designed as a user
friendly, economical choice ideal for conversions from electromechanical to digital
controllers. All control components are housed in a rugged steel enclosure mounted
on the front of the machine for easy access and servicing.
The PS500 is engineered
for simplicity and reliability, based on proven technologies from years of experience
with incubation systems. The PS500 is loaded with features that make it easy to
use. High contrast digital LED temperature readouts and status indicators quickly
inform the user of all critical machine functions. All programming functions are
accessed through a 16 button keypad. The PS500 controller can be networked
to Jamesway's Hatchcom data retrieval system with the addition of an expansion
module, enabling collection of temperature, alarm, and status information, as
well as remote setpoint operation. The system is compatible with the PT-100 system,
allowing side by side operation. Through precise monitoring and maintaining
of the environment within
an incubator or setter, the PS500 provides for the
production of healthy
birds and high hatchability.
