Mokon Minitherm - Circulating Water Temperature Control System
Mokon's Minitherm circulating water temperature control system is engineered to meet high safety standards while ensuring precise control over process temperatures. Its compact design makes it suitable for locations with limited space, such as small tonnage molding machines and laboratory settings. The system boasts a 9 GPM pumping capacity and offers heating capabilities of 2 or 4 kW, allowing operation up to 250°F (121°C). It incorporates a non-proprietary microprocessor-based PID controller for accurate temperature management and includes a horizontally mounted inline cast brass heater manifold for rapid heating and cooling cycles. This design ensures energy efficiency, while non-ferrous piping prevents rust and contamination. The Minitherm comes with a cULus 508A labeled electrical sub-panel and offers customizable control packages, including options from state-of-the-art PLC-type controllers to standard microprocessor-based units. Mokon provides flexibility in design to meet specific customer requirements with high-quality and durable systems.
Mokon's Minitherm circulating water temperature control system is designed to surpass today's safety standards, while providing accurate control of your process temperature. The Minitherm's compact package fits into tight spaces reducing floor space requirements and is ideal for small tonnage molding machine and lab applications.
The Minitherm is available in 9 GPM pumping capacity and heating capacities of 2 or 4 kW, for operation up to 250°F (121°C). Each Mokon Minitherm is equipped with a non-proprietary microprocessor-based PID controller to ensure accurate control, a horizontally mounted inline cast brass heater manifold for faster heat up and cool down providing high energy efficiency, and non-ferrous piping and components that do not rust or contaminate water.
All Minitherm systems come standard with a cULus 508A labeled electrical sub-panel. All of these features and more, combined with our extended warranty, make the Minitherm an easy choice for delivering precise and accurate temperature control.

Features of Standard and Optional Controls
A variety of controls are available from Mokon to enhance the high performance of our systems. From solid state to microprocessor based, with communication capabilities to PLC type controls, Mokon can provide the type of control package right for your process.
Eurotherm 3216 Series
The Eurotherm 1/16 DIN (3216) microprocessor controller is operator friendly and easy-to-use. Standard features include a microprocessor PID controller for the highest accuracy in temperature control, a dual LCD display that shows set point and actual fluid temperature, and scrolling text messages that deliver plain language messages to let users know exactly what is happening to the process. There are optional 1/8 or 1/4 DIN controllers available, with high/low deviation alarm, remote set point and retransmission and serial communication. A five-year warranty comes standard with the controller.
Custom Controls
Mokon's ability to meet customers' specific requirements is seen not only in custom system designs, but also in controls. Our engineers can custom design a control package that meets your specific processing needs, from brand name controls, to direct computer/host machine interfacing. All of which can be expected with the same quality and durability that our customers expect from our complete line of temperature control systems.
