DESCRIPTION
The EGPC/AXPC100-EGPC is an electronic temperature
controller with 30-mA ground-fault protection. It is ideal for
all heat tracing applications requiring accurate temperature
monitoring. The controller can be programmed to maintain
temperatures up to 215°C (419°F) at voltages from 100 to
277 V and can switch current up to 30 Amperes for the
EGPC or 25 Amperes for the AXPC100-EGPC. The
EGPC/AXPC100-EGPC is complete with a temperature
sensor and is housed in a NEMA 4X rated enclosure. The
