Washdown Threaded Temperature Switches

Turn heating equipment on or off in washdown environments. To withstand splashing water, corrosive liquid, and dust, these switches have a housing that meets NEMA 4X. The threaded probe installs directly into tanks, pipelines, and other process components. Use the adjustment dial to set actuation points.

Switches with two actuation points have two SPDT (single pole, double throw) relays. Each relay can be set to turn one circuit from off to on (normally open) or from on to off (normally closed).

Steel Probe

To protect these switches from splashing water, corrosive liquid, and dust, the housing meets NEMA 4X for washdown conditions. Switches turn heating equipment on or off at a specified temperature. All have a probe on a cable for remote temperature readings. Set actuation points with the adjustment dial.

SPDT (Single pole, double throw) switches can be set to turn circuits from off to on (normally open) or from on to off (normally closed). Switches with two actuation points have two SPDT (single pole, double throw) relays. Each relay can be set to turn one circuit from off to on (normally open) or from on to off (normally closed).

Hazardous Location Surface-Mount Temperature Switches

Safe for use in chemical plants, refineries, and other hazardous locations, these switches maintain your surface’s temperature by turning equipment on or off when they reach a set temperature. They’re FM approved for use where flammable gases may be present. These switches actuate when the temperature rises to the setpoint and reset when the temperature falls below the reset point. Since they're SPDT (single pole, double throw) switches, they control one circuit and can either be wired to turn one device from on to off (normally closed) or from off to on (normally open). Wire them normally closed to power a heater—when the temperature rises to the setpoint, the heater will turn off until the temperature falls below the reset point. Or wire them normally open to turn on alarms or other devices when the temperature rises above the setpoint. Their setpoint isn’t adjustable, so they’re easy to set up and there’s no risk of unintentional changes.

CSA-US and CSA certified, they also meet American and Canadian safety standards.

High-Limit Temperature Controllers

To protect equipment and personnel, these controllers shut down your machine when it gets too hot. Reset them manually to turn your machine on again. They're often used as a fail-safe system and for triggering alarms.

Set the actuation point and adjust other settings with the keypad. To read the temperature, these controllers use a highly sensitive thermocouple probe (sold separately). They have one or two mechanical relays that actuate circuits directly. Mount them into instrumentation panels with DIN cutouts.

Controllers that are SPDT (single pole, double throw) can turn one circuit from off to on (normally open) or on to off (normally closed).

Controllers that are SPST-NO (single pole, single throw) can turn one circuit from off to on (normally open).

Remote-reset controllers are best for hard-to-reach locations. To operate, you’ll need to wire the remote reset input terminals, and the sensor must be below the set temperature.

To mount 1/16 DIN controllers to a surface or DIN rail, add DIN-rail/surface-mount adapters. To convert larger cutouts to fit 1/16 DIN controllers, add DIN cutout adapters.
