When instances for temperature zones are created, the BrowseNames shall be "TemperatureZone_<Nr>” where <Nr> is a three-digit number with leading zeros, starting with “001”. The ExtrusionTemperatureZoneType is defined in Table 5.

StartTempering: Main switch for all temperature zones in the container. The single zones have own switches/status AND-connection!

NOTES: The temperature of the zone is stored inside the MonitoredParameter object of the MeasuringDeviceType. The TemperatureZoneType differs from the TemperatureZoneType defined in OPC 40083 to make use of the new MeasuringDeviceType.

Indication of the nominal heating power of the zone in kW. If the zone is only a cooling zone, this variable is not used.

Indication of the nominal cooling power of the zone in kW. If the zone is only a heating zone, this variable is not used.

Actual ratio of the used nominal power in %. Values from -100 (=max. cooling) to +100 (max. heating).

Actual electrical current of the zone in A.
