  *Blower motor extends 9.5" above. Control panel overhang 9" right side.
‡Model 323 has two (2) heating elements which result in an open delta heater connection on 3-phase electrical service.		   †Accuracy as percent of controller span. Uniformity at 50°F below maximum temperature. Rise Time in minutes to 50°F below maximum temperature. Tests run with empty oven and minimum exhaust. Performance will vary with load, exhaust rate and application. See Bulletin TC-920 for additional details.
STANDARD EQUIPMENT   Back to Top
• All Models
— 208 volts, 3-phase, 60 Hz
