The Opdax HMI chiller controller.
The Mydax Opdax Chiller Controller offers a microprocessor-based control system which incorporates ease of use for the operator with powerful controls. The Opdax HMI controllers feature a menu-driven system equipped with an interactive color touch-screen display. System controls are exceptionally comprehensive and provide user input, along with built-in diagnostics and error messages.

Parameter adjust / VFD page
The Mydax system user has the ability to choose a constant flow output, and the system will automatically adjust the pump VFD to maintain the output flow even as temperature and fluid viscosity changes. The user also has the choice to pick a constant VFD output percentage if they desire.
Refrigeration information page
Ramp program page
The Ramp Program allows the operator to create a profile that includes the choice of up to 8 different Start / Stop output temperature setpoints, as well as the Ramp time between setpoints and how long to Pause at each setpoint. The program can run once or repeat the cycle — allowing powerful control over the Mydax chiller system’s cooling and heating for the end user’s process.

Previous-generation controllers & MydaxRemote™.
The Mydax Controller (M1001)
The Mydax controller is fundamentally the heart of the chiller/heater. Developed in conjunction with our first patents nearly 20 years ago, the controller has remained state-of-the-art. Some of its capabilities are:
- Measures temperatures with 0.05°C precision (as low as 0.001°C available)
- Monitor and control the refrigeration system
- Analog or digital voltage inputs and outputs
- Friendly and flexible user interface
- RS-232 standard; options for GPIB (IEEE-488) and RS-485
- Displays setpoint, fluid temperatures, and flow rate
- Diagnostics displays include up to 10 additional system temperatures, refrigerant pressure, internal control parameters, drive signals, and more
Remote Computer Control — MydaxRemote™
Remote computer control is becoming more common than ever before. Applications now often demand:
- “Remote control” of the chiller
- Data logging of temperatures during a process run
- A programmed sequence of temperature steps, or profile
To get you up and running quickly, Mydax offers MydaxRemote™ for RS-232 communications running in Microsoft Windows.
