Technical data
Box: self-extinguishing grey.
Size: 72 x 144 x 79 mm (2.83 x 5.66 x 3.11 in).
Installation: panel mounting, panel cut out 67 x 138 mm (2.63 x 5.43 in), with screw
brackets (supplied by the builder).
Frontal protection: IP 54.
Connections: extractable terminal blocks with pitch 7.5 mm (0.29 in) for cables up
to 2.5 mm² (0.38 sq in, power supply and outputs) and with pitch 5 mm (0.19 in) for
cables up to 2.5 mm² (0.38 sq in, input).
Ambient temperature: from 0 to 55 °C (32 to 131 °F, 10 ... 90% of relative humidity
without condensate).
Power supply: 230 Vac, 50/60 Hz, 4 VA (standard) or 115 Vac, 50/60 Hz, 4 VA
(by request).
Alarm buzzer: included.
Measure inputs: 1 (chamber probe) for “J” or “K” thermocouples.
Working range: from 0 to 700 °C (32 to 999 °F) for “J” thermocouple,
from 0 to 999 °C (32 to 999 °F) for “K” thermocouple.
Setpoint range: from 0 to 999 °C (0 to 999 °F).
Resolution: 1 °F with unit of measure in Fahrenheit, 1 °C with unit of measure in
Celsius.
Display: one red LED 3-digit displays 13.2 mm (0.51 in) high, two LED bars (10 red
LED), output status indicators, indicators of the unit of measure of the temperature
showed by the instrument.
Outputs: 3 relays: one 8 A @ 250 Vac relay for top heating group control (NO),
one 8 A @ 250 Vac relay for floor heating group control (NO), one 8 A @ 250 Vac relay
for chamber light control (NO); the maximum current allowed on terminal 26 is 10 A.
