JETmini — Compact Hot Runner Control Unit
JETmini is a compact control unit designed for hot runner and general heating applications with 1 or 2 zones. Although it is no bigger than a shoebox, it delivers the same process monitoring quality as large control cabinets.

| Switching | TRIAC, protected by an FF (super fast) 10 A fuse |
| Pt 100 resistance | 0 – 500 °C |
| Fe/CuNi (type J) | 0 – 500 °C |
| NiCr/Ni (type K) | 0 – 700 °C |
| Display | 2 inch graphic display, switchable °C / °F |
| Operation | Multifunction rotary knob |

Why JETmini?
- Supports three sensor types at once — no sensor change is needed on your existing molds
- Stackable design: several units can be placed one above the other
- Mold connections are configured to your requirement at no extra charge
- Beyond hot runners, it can also be used in general heating applications
When the zone count grows, a modular solution becomes necessary: the VARIO series for 4 – 32 zones, and JETmaster TP for large systems above 24 zones.
The system as a whole: hot runner control units
A compact solution for small molds
JETmini is a benchtop unit designed for a 1 – 2 zone hot runner control need. On small molds with a single nozzle or two zones, a multi-zone cabinet is an investment that is both unnecessary and space-consuming.
Technical specifications
A 230 V / 10 A supply, a 2 inch display and a housing measuring 170 × 70 × 210 mm. Its stackable design allows several units to be arranged neatly side by side or one above the other — so a few small molds can be managed from the same working area.
Support for three sensor types
It works with Pt100, type J (up to 500 °C) and type K (up to 700 °C) sensors. The unit must match the sensor type in the mold; a mismatch causes the temperature to be read incorrectly and makes the control act in the wrong direction.
When to move up to a larger unit
As the zone count rises, using separate JETmini units makes management harder. From four zones onward the TP and VARIO series, and above 24 zones the JETmaster TP cabinets become more suitable.
Zones are counted from the mold maker's connection diagram: every nozzle, each manifold section and any tip heaters count as one zone each. For general information see the hot runner control systems page.
