DOUBLE POLE THERMOSTAT

D1/D18

Thermostats Temperature Controls

The model D1/D18 has a toggle-type, snap-action mechanism with integral "ON-OFF" switch. It has a wide temperature range suitable for commercial and industrial applications for temperature control of any electrically heated solid, liquid or gas. It is used in ovens, sterilizers, heaters, molding machines, heat exchangers, label machines, water baths, heat sealers, drying tumblers and similar equipment where accurate temperature control is required. D1/D18 opens on temperature rise.

120 or 240 V, 1800 and 3600 Watts

Features
  • Simplicity. No cams or levers to adjust. No motor to burn out.
  • Bi-metal acts at settings less than HI to limit electrical input and depress temperature.
  • Provides control for loads up to 15 amperes.
  • Designed for operation in an ambient up to 180�F.
  • Automatic compensation for line voltage fluctuations up to �15%

Gives infinite control for noninductive loads up to 15 amperes on 120 or 240 volts. Can be turned either to left or right to select proper heat from 0 to 100% wattage with infinite control over first 50% of total wattage.

Energized continuously in HI position, at other settings it delivers selected input level under control of a simple bi-metal timer.

Applications
  • Annealing
  • Melting Pots
  • Industrial cooking
  • Dies
  • Platens
  • Comfort heating

Voltage Control - Solid State Variable

Model A18TP

Infinite Controls

Solid State power controls provide variable control of single-phase constant resistance heating loads.

These small, ultra-light controls replace expensive, bulky variable transformers, saturable core reactors, and electromechanical contactors

Full-size, easy-turn potentiometers control the output voltage via power semiconductors, replacing failure-prone brushes or moving contacts to heating element temperature in virtually any* process heating application up to 25 amps (6000 watts @ 240VAC).

Applications
  • Replace variable transformers
  • Nozzle heaters
  • Platen heating
  • Band heaters
  • Extrusion and Molding machines
  • Food preparation
  • Environmental chambers
  • Heat treating ovens
Specifications
  • Light ON/OFF switch
  • 6ft. power cord with plug
  • NEMA standard 120 or 240VAC receptacle (please specify)
  • 15amp load capacity at 120 or 240 VAC
  • Quick-change " 2-millisecond" fuse protection
  • Portable (bench top) or chassis mounted small size
