TCU Temperature Control Unit
High and low temperature control unit for precise heating and cooling of jacketed reactors and process equipment.
product details
Product overview
TCU temperature control units are used where the buyer needs stable control of material temperature, outlet temperature and circulation conditions for a reactor, process skid or matched equipment line.
Where this route fits
- Jacketed glass reactor and stainless-steel reactor control
- Pilot plant process temperature control
- Heating and cooling loops with programmable steps
- Process systems that need HMI/PLC integration
What to provide before quotation
- Minimum and maximum process temperature
- Reactor volume, jacket size and process medium
- Heating load and expected cooling load
- Voltage, cooling type and control protocol requirement
- Whether Siemens PLC, data export or explosion-proof options are required

Configuration options typically discussed before order release
- GDX-series route chosen from working range and cooling demand
- PT100 sensing and material or outlet temperature control logic
- Self-developed control or Siemens PLC / HMI package
- Air-cooled or water-cooled condenser structure depending on site utilities
- Communication and export-data requirements matched to plant integration
Typical delivery scope discussion
- Temperature-control main unit with control system and circulation path
- Standard protection set covering overvoltage, overcurrent, overheating and leakage logic
- Guide-led configuration discussion for utilities, interfaces and accessories
- Optional matched accessories and project-specific control scope during quotation
Installation and site-preparation notes
- Confirm reactor jacket demand, installation footprint and service-access path early
- Confirm voltage, frequency, cooling mode and plant-side utility constraints
- Confirm PLC, communication and hazardous-area requirements before final model confirmation

Frequently asked questions
Which TCU series should I choose?
Choose by minimum temperature, required cooling capacity, reactor volume, heating load and control interface needs.
Can PLC control be customized?
Yes. Siemens PLC and screen options are shown in the UnionClay selection guide and can be discussed during quotation.
