Tracon FPT 130

single channel heat trace TEMPERATURE controller

The FPT Controller is a single channel temperature controller with up to 5 fixed set points. A universal power supply allows the FPT 130 to operate from 100 Vac to 277 Vac and control resistive loads up to 30 amps with 30 mA ground fault protection. 100k ohms Thermistor can be used for temperature sensing. 100k ohms Thermistor can be used for temperature sensing.

  • Adjustable Temperature Setpoint and Alarms Sensor Inputs
  • Precision Monitoring and Control
  • Ground–Fault Equipment Protection
  • Automatic GFEP Circuit Self–Test

FEATURES

  • Adjustable temperature set point of 30 °F, 38 °F, 45 °F, or 50 °F (−1.1 °C, 3.3 °C, 7.2 °C, or 10 °C) for various freeze protection applications
  • Thermistor temperature sensor with 20 ft. cable included for applications of −40 °F to 230 °F (−40 °C to 110 °C)
  • Ground–Fault Equipment Protection with manual and automatic test function
  • Alarms for excess ground fault current, low load current, and temperature
  • Alarms indicated with panel LED lights and relay contact for remote signaling
  • A Fault Mode setting which can be set to energize or de-energize the heaters during a sensor fault
  • Fire Protection Mode maintains heater operation for use in critical fire protection systems
  • Durable weather–resistant NEMA 4X IP66 enclosure permits indoor or outdoor installation
