  • Standard Electrical Characteristics
    — 120 volts, 50-60 Hz, 3-wire cord and plug
    — 240 volts, 50-60 Hz, 3-wire cord (Can be operated on 208 volts. Heat input will be reduced by 20%.)
    — Other electrical characteristics available

  • Standard Temperature Control Systems
    MP SERIES
    Microprocessor temperature control system provides the unmatched accuracy, precision and convenience of microprocessor technology. Proportional temperature control ensures accurate temperature regulation. Digital set guarantees repeatable settings and a large digital temperature display indicates oven temperature. A platinum RTD monitors and responds instantly to the temperature of the workload. Optional programmable control (ramp/dwell capability) and timer are listed below.

    For over-temperature protection, a second control system consisting of an independent hydraulic thermostat, set by the operator to a temperature slightly higher than the set point, provides a mechanical back-up should the microprocessor fail. A red panel lamp signals an over-temperature situation.
