JBS-100-ECP-A
Electronic temperature controllers that provide accurate control of a heating circuit using a RTD
sensor. The JBS-100-ECP-A is pipe mounted and serves as a power connection kit for both
Raychem self-regulating and Pyrotenax mineral insulated heating cables. The JBS-100-ECW-A
is wall mounted and may be used with all types of heating cables. It can also be used as a power
connection kit with Pyrotenax MI cables. Adjustable set points between 32°F to 425°F (0°C to
218°C), power input of 120 Vac to 277 Vac, and current switching up to 30 A. c-CSA-us
(certified to U.S. and Canadian Standards) for use in nonhazardous locations. Requires
MI grounding kit.
