Question about 0-999' F Temperature Controller

[timmerjay]

Hello,

I am looking at getting a 0-999'F Temperature Controller and can find no manual or detailed tech sheet on it to see if it will work for my application.

I am looking for something that has a remote sensor (thermocouple, thermistor, etc.) that I can use as a high limit and low limit switch that will run a 110volt coil on a relay. In other words, if the temp drops below around 150deg f or gets higher than 250deg f it will open and shut the system down. I would also like to use it as a display to see the current temperture.

Seems simple, but it's tough to find something that will do all that economically.

The JLD612 and the similar 614 will do this easily, using a built-in hysteresis (Hy) routine. Choice of temp sensor will depend on temp range; probably a K thermocouple will be best for you. You can download the JLD612 manual from the Lightobject site and review the control options available.
