Have this manual in your hands
using the FG Finder application.
1. DESCRIPTION
Temperature indicator designed to monitor average, differential or individual temperatures of up-to four
sensors. It can be connected to Sitrad real-time monitoring and management software or smartphone
APP using RS485 serial communication port.
It features IP65 frontal protection, optional drip protection case at rear and tamper-proof function
lockdown to prevent unauthorized change of parameters.
2. SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS
- Check the controller for correct fastening;
- Make sure that the power supply is off and that it is not turned on during the controller installation;
- Read the present manual before installing and using the controller;
- Use adequate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE);
- For application at sites subject to water spills, such as refrigerated counters, install the protecting vinyl
supplied with the controller;
- For protection under more critical conditions, we recommend the Ecase cover, which we make
available as an optional item (sold separately);
- The installation procedures should be performed by a qualified technician.

6.2. Temperature sensor connection
- Connect the sensor S1 wires to terminals "7 and 8": the polarity is not relevant.
- The sensor cable can be extended up to 200 meters, by the user itself, using a PP2x24AWG cable.
- For immersion in water, use a thermowell (Image VI - item 13), available in the Full Gauge Controls
product line (sold separately).
6.3. Controller power supply
Use the pins according to table below, considering the set version:
Pins
9 and 10
9 and 11
6.4. Recommendations of IEC60364 standard
a) Install overload protectors in the controller supply.
b) The sensor cables may be together, but not in the same conduit where the power supply of the
controller and/or of the loads passes through.
7. FASTENING PROCEDURE
a) Cut out the panel plate (Image V - item 13) where the controller shall be fastened, with sizes
X = 71±0.5 mm and Y = 29±0.5 mm;
b) Remove side locks (Image VI - item 13): to do that, compress the central elliptical part (with the Full
Gauge Controls logo) and displace the locks backwards;
c) Introduce the controller in the notch made on the panel, inwards;
d) Place the locks again and then displace them until they compress into the panel, fastening the
controller to the housing (see arrow indication in Image VI - item 13);
e) Perform the electric installation as described in item 6;
f) Adjust the parameters as described in item 8.
ATTENTION: for installations requiring liquid tight sealing, the notch sizes for the controller
installation should be no more than 70.5x29mm. The side locks should be fastened so that they
press the sealing rubber avoiding infiltration between the notch and the controller.
Protector vinyl - Image VII (item 13)
It is supplied with the instrument in the package.
IMPORTANT: Make the application only after completing the electrical connections.
a) Retreat the side locks (Image VI - item 13);
b) Remove the protective film from the adhesive vinyl face;
c) Apply the vinyl over the entire upper part, bending the flaps, as indicated by the arrows - Image VII
(item 13);
d) Reinstall the locks.
NOTE: The vinyl is transparent, allowing visualization of the wiring system of the instrument.
