| Instrumentation | ||
| Temperature Controller | Watlow F4T Touch Screen Controller with RS-232, Ethernet interface, 4.3" color graphic touch screen. OR... Watlow F4 Controller with RS-232 interface, LED readout of temperature, LCD display of other parameters. | |
| Limit Controller | Independent high and low temperature limits. Triggers an audible alarm and shuts down the chamber. Relay contacts provide a safety power interlock for test sample. | |
| Chart Recorder | (Optional) Honeywell DR4300 Series. One pen, 10" circular chart. Mounts in lower front door. |  |
Input Power Requirements
| 230 V ±10%, 60 Hz, 3 Phase | Max Current Draw 39 A; Recommended Service 50 A |
| 208 V -5/+10%, 60 Hz, 3 Phase | Max Current Draw 35 A; Recommended Service 45 A |
|
Input may be configured for 230 V or 208 V in the field by changing jumpers. Three phase load is balanced. Customer power source must be hard-wired to the chamber by a qualified electrician. Power cord and plug is not included. | |

NOTE: Performance is typical and based on operation at 23°C (73°F) ambient and nominal input voltage. Designed for use in a normal conditioned laboratory. Operation at higher ambient temperatures may result in decreased cooling performance. Additional ports and shelves will also affect performance. Operation above 30°C (85°F) or below 16°C (60°F) ambient is not recommended.
Due to continuous product improvements, specifications subject to change without notice.
