The electromechanical temperature controller manufactured by Leitenberger Mess- und Regeltechnik GmbH is an excellent choice for precise temperature control tasks, especially in industrial environments requiring flush mounting. This device combines reliability and long service life with German quality, without using bimetallic compensation. The robust stainless steel housing and transparent glass front guarantee durable performance in the most diverse applications.
This remote sensing thermostat (part number: 04.14) is the ideal solution for systems where precise temperature monitoring and switching functions are required.
The device is built upon Leitenberger's traditional yet extremely reliable technology, ensuring simple yet effective measurement.
Temperature measurement is performed via a simple Bourdon tube measuring system. This mechanical principle ensures stable operation and long-term accuracy.
Skálahossz: Approximately 240°.
Scale Graduation: Depending on the measuring range, it can be set in selectable increments of 1°, 2°, 5°, or 10°, providing flexibility for different application requirements.
The standard range is extremely wide, allowing for versatile use:
Measurement range: Ranges from -80°C to +380°C.
Customizability: The measuring range can also be configured according to specific customer requirements.
The device complies with strict industrial standards regarding accuracy and switching reliability.
Display Accuracy: Class 2 according to DIN 16203 standard.
Switching capacity: 5A / 3A at 125/250 VAC, at a frequency of 40–60 Hz.
Switching Hysteresis: Approximately ±2% of the measuring range. This set hysteresis ensures stable switching behavior, avoiding frequent on/off cycles.
Contact Type: Single-pole changeover contact, adjustable over the entire range.
A user-friendly design is crucial for quick and accurate readings.
Indicators: The actual value (black) and the setpoint value (red) are displayed clearly and legibly on the scale.
Fixing Clamp: Made of galvanized sheet steel, which ensures stable mounting.
