The Prolon PL-C1050-HU is a Modbus RTU humidity controller for room or duct relative humidity, with humidification and dehumidification sequences, 2 triac outputs and 1 analog output.

Specifications on this page are taken from the Prolon Humidity Controller datasheet, REV 7.3.1 / PL-DATA-C1050HU-C/F-EN.

The PL-C1050-HU controls relative humidity in a room or a duct. Both humidification and dehumidification sequences are available, with PI control loops holding the setpoint.

The humidification setpoint varies with outside temperature, which keeps the humidifier from driving the space to a level that condenses on cold glass. Unoccupied mode setpoint offsets and safety limits are configurable.

Note the output count: this is the only C1050 in the group with 2 digital outputs rather than 4. Humidity inputs are voltage rather than thermistor, at 0-5 VDC or 0-10 VDC for both return/room and supply humidity.

Best For

  • Relative humidity control in a room or a duct
  • Humidification with setpoint reset from outside temperature
  • Dehumidification triggered by digital output or over the network to a rooftop controller

Key Features

Outdoor reset of humidification setpoint

The humidification setpoint varies according to the outside temperature.

Humidification and dehumidification

Both humidification and dehumidification sequences are available. The dehumidification sequence is configurable and is activated by digital output or by network communication to a rooftop controller.

Supply humidity upper limit

Configurable sequence for a supply humidity modulating upper limit.

Networked data and fan restart

Outside temperature and proof of fan data can be received through the network, and a fan restart sequence during unoccupied mode is available when networked.

Two protected triac outputs

2 digital outputs and 1 analog output, all equipped with resettable fuses.

PI control loops

Proportional-integral control loops maximize performance and hold the humidity setpoint.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many outputs does the PL-C1050-HU have?
2 triac digital outputs and 1 analog output, all with resettable fuses. The rest of the C1050 group carries 4 digital outputs; this model carries 2.
What is the analog output range?
1 output 0-10 VDC or 2-10 VDC, 40 mA max, with resettable fuse.
What humidity sensors does it accept?
Return/room humidity and supply humidity inputs both accept 0-5 VDC or 0-10 VDC signals. There is also a 10K thermistor input for outside air and a dry contact for proof of fan.
How does dehumidification work?
A configurable dehumidification sequence is activated either by a digital output or by network communication to a rooftop controller.
Does the humidification setpoint change with the weather?
Yes. The humidification setpoint varies according to outside temperature, which is standard practice to avoid condensation on cold surfaces.
Is it a BACnet controller?
No. The C1050-HU communicates using Modbus RTU over RS485, up to 127 nodes.
