Perfect for drying and curing applications. The N1050-PR supports multiple setpoints and long segment times, with a pulse output for control of Solid State Relays. It can be programmed using the display or via the USB port with free QuickTune software.
Up to 5 programs can be stored in the controller, each containing 4 segments. Programs have a link function (Program 1 ends and starts Program 2) and can perform loops (a program ends and returns to start).
Contains:
1 x Novus N1050-PR Controller
1 x Novus 25A Solid State Relay
1 x PT100 Sensor (5 x 50mm, 2M cable, 420°C max)
✅ 3 year manufacturer warranty on the controller; 1 year on the included SSR and sensor

Frequently Asked Questions
What's included in the bundle?
The N1050-PR controller, a matched 25A SSR, and a PT100 sensor — no separate purchases needed to get a working ramp & soak control setup.
What warranty applies to the bundle?
3 years on the controller and 1 year on the SSR and sensor, since they're covered under different Novus warranty terms.
Is there a Type K thermocouple version instead of PT100?
Yes, see the Type K Ramp & Soak Bundle.
Do I need a heatsink for the solid state relay?
In most installations, yes. A solid state relay gives off roughly 1.5W of heat per amp of load, so a 20A heater produces around 30W in the relay. Mount it on a heatsink rated for the relay and keep the panel below 40-50°C. For 25A relays the EMAS SSS2X heatsink is a good fit.
How do I tune the controller after installation?
Use the built-in autotune. A fast autotune at 50-60% of your normal working temperature sets sensible PID values, then a full autotune at working temperature can fine-tune them. Run initial tuning without interference i.e. changes to setpoint or environment. For ovens and kilns, ensure doors and access points are closed. The initial tuning should be as close as possible to normal operating conditions. See PID Tuning for step-by-step help.
Can you set up the controller before it is sent?
Yes. Add our Pre-Programming service to your order and tell us your sensor, setpoint and alarm requirements. We configure the controller before dispatch, so it is ready to wire in.
Where can I find wiring and setup instructions?
Our PID Bundle Guide: Wiring & Setup covers the power supply, sensor and SSR wiring, first-time setup and autotune. You can also download the PID Bundle Guide (PDF) to keep with the panel.
Industry Applications
- Drying & Curing — long segment times suit slow, controlled drying cycles.
- Multi-Stage Processes — 5 linked/looped programs for repeatable complex schedules.
- Precision Process Control — PT100 accuracy for temperature-critical applications.
