General Specifications

Electrical Ratings
115VAC, 15.0 Amps, 50/60 Hz

230VAC, 15.0 Amps, 50/60 Hz

Before connecting a controller to an electrical outlet,
the user must be certain that the electrical outlet has
an earth ground connection and that the line, load
and other characteristics of the installation do not
exceed the following limits:

Voltage: Fluctuations in the line voltage should not
exceed 10% of the rated nominal voltage shown on
the data plate.

Frequency: Controllers can be operated from either
a 50 or 60 Hertz power supply without affecting their
operation or calibration.

Current: The total current drawn should not exceed
the rating shown on the data plate on the controller
by more than 10 percent.

Thermocouple: Unless otherwise specified, all 4848
Controllers operate with a Type-J (Iron-Constantan)
thermocouple. The total resistance of the thermo-
couple and the lead wires should not exceed 100
ohms. If the resistance of the thermocouple circuit
is higher, it will not function properly.
