Barber Coleman Company
The Barber Coleman company was raised, like many other businesses, with the help of one man’s genius and another man’s money. The story of the company begins in late 1894, when engineer Howard Coleman introduced his innovative inventions to one of Massachusetts’ wealthiest persons of that time, Walter Barber. Impressed especially by a device used in the textile industry, which mechanically tied and trimmed knots (later called the hand-operated knotter), Walter Barber agreed to back Howard Coleman up financially, in starting his own company. Thus, the Barber Coleman company was born.
In more than a hundred years of quality service providing, the Barber Coleman company managed to reach the peak of the building control, home control and water control industries. The Barber Coleman company manufactures a wide array of products, such as
- Barber Coleman company sensors
- Barber Coleman thermocouple
- Barber Coleman control
- Barber Coleman control valves
- Barber Coleman control motors
- Barber Coleman valve repair kits
- Barber Coleman company actuators
The Barber Coleman company quickly became famous, always keeping itself on top of their competitors. The company is still considered a giant in control and HVAC appliances, even today, offering top-notch solutions for home, industrial or commercial needs.
One area where the Barber Coleman company made a particularly firm step forward is in temperature and process controllers. Two of the most impressive Barber Coleman Controller series, are the Series 2000™ and the Series 3000™, which contain a large gamma of over 25 types of temperature controllers, each with its own distinctive and unique features.
Products from the Series 2000™
This includes high performance temperature controllers, multi-loop controllers, multi-loop programmers, package boiler controllers, humidity controllers, environmental chamber controllers, high stability controllers and general purpose controllers. Barber Coleman controllers from these series employ universal inputs and accept a vast range of modules and plug-ins for heating, cooling, air conditioning, refrigeration, analog retransmission and remote set-points. Some of the Barber Coleman controllers have PID valve control, while others are motorized, thus both electrical and gas heating applications are favored. In addition, some models can be implemented with multi-zone programming, delivering master set-points to several client controllers and holding back if heat levels deviate more than a preset value.
Products from the Series 3000™
Series 3000™ consists of the latest range of temperature controllers. These Barber Coleman Company controllers excel in interface user-friendliness, having the possibility to set up quick start codes, providing an automated help system and an auto-tune feature that make these controllers less complicated and less user-reliant. Other features include a set-point programmer, heater failure detection and a timer. The more advanced product versions from the 3000 Series have even greater features. For example, the 3504 Barber Coleman Controller provides an Input/Output system (I/O system) that allows you to measure and control a large amount of processes, ranging from carbon potential, humidity, flow, pressure, viscosity, temperature additive dosing and many more.
Barber Coleman Actuator Motors
Another market where Barber Coleman had some huge successes is the motor actuator market. With over 35 years of experience in the field, their actuators have become extremely sought-after and their time-tested quality was acclaimed by both commercial and industrial users. The new EA actuator series takes performance to a whole new level, with its microprocessor based control system, the great potentiometer input, adjustable dead-band and its high compatibility with a large range of valves.
The microprocessor based integral control route accepts voltage and resistance input indicators. Control overrides permit forcing the actuator to both ends and switch selectable stroke lengths are either of 90° or 180°. Different stroke lengths can be set using a plain pushbutton system. The default calibration of the direction of travel is 4 to 20mA and it is field selectable. Other ranges are switch selectable.
Other Product Fields of Barber Coleman Company
Besides Barber Colman actuator motors and temperature controllers, they have other product fields, including rail mountable controllers (single or multi-loop), customizable panel controllers, indicators and FM alarm units, SCR and SSR power controllers, gas valves and digital communication networks.
