Instrumentation
Temperature ControllerWatlow F4T Touch Screen Controller with RS-232, Ethernet interface, and 4.3" color graphic touch screen. OR...
Watlow F4 Controller with RS-232 interface, LED readout of temperature, and LCD display of other parameters.
Limit ControllerIndependent 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 PhaseMax Current Draw 58 A; Recommended Service 75 A
208 V -5/+10%, 60 Hz, 3 PhaseMax Current Draw 56 A; Recommended Service 75 A

Input may be configured for 230 V or 208 V in the field by changing jumpers. Three phase load is balanced. Call for other voltages or 50 Hz operation. 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.
