Application

The Genesis Duo range is Thermon’s industry leading IIoT enabled line of heat trace temperature controllers and high temperature limiters. The Gensis Duo units provide control and monitoring capabilities for one or two heat tracing circuits with input from up to two intrinsically safe RTDs per circuit. The units can be configured to control and limit with dedicated intrinsically safe RTD inputs for the limiter channel. Genesis Duo modules have a 4.3" glove touch capable LCD display with an additional light ring for visual indication. The Genesis Duo controllers are also native to the Genesis Network requiring no additional hardware to communicate with Thermon’s state of the art supervisory and management platform.

The Genesis Duo dual-point electronic control modules are approved for use in both ordinary (nonclassified) and hazardous (classified) areas.

Genesis Network
The Thermon Genesis Network consists of a control room server, a gateway, and a collection of field deployed bridges/nodes that form a wireless mesh communications network. Alternatively, the network can be made via a traditional wired Ethernet network. The Genesis Network connects all heat trace panels and controllers to the control room and gives visibility of all assets from a single dashboard and user interface that can be accessed from any browser.

Features

Genesis Duo control and monitoring units offer the following features:

Efficient configuration and operation: With the glove touch enabled 4.3" LCD operators can quickly program the Genesis Duo and access all readings. The touch interface is extremely intuitive and requires little training to get up and running. When the Genesis Duo is connected to Genesis Network configuration and operation can be done from a centralized location to enable a distributed controls network.

Light Ring Notifications: The Genesis Duo is equipped with a notification light ring that signals the operator using color and motion to convey alarm and notification states.

Upgraded Communications: The Genesis Duo is Genesis Network native with the built in wireless mesh or wired ethernet. The Genesis Duo can also optionally be connected directly to any plant DCS system via Modbus TCP or Modbus RTU. Modbus Memory maps are compatible with the TCM2 controller to enable a drop in replacement option.

High Temperature Limiter: The Genesis Duo has the ability to be configured as a single channel with a high temperature limiter. The high temperature limiter functionality is isolated and has dedicated RTD inputs. The Genesis Duo when enabled with the limiter function meets the requirements of IEC/EN/UL/CSA 60079-30-1 for controlled design to limit energy to the heat trace in explosive atmospheres.
