L480B,G Temperature Controllers
PRODUCT DATA
FEATURES
• Typical applications include freezer cabinets, display
cases, beverage coolers, milk cooling tanks and air
conditioners.
• The L480B can act as a frost alarm operator in
storehouses, orchards, or other locations where frost
could damage crops or equipment.
• The L480B automatically recycles. It has a single-pole,
double-throw (spdt) switch that can be wired to make
an alarm circuit at the setpoint.
• The L480G is a manual reset model. Its single-pole,
single-throw (spst) switch locks out the control circuit
on temperature fall to the setpoint.
• A dual temperature scaleplate is provided for both
Fahrenheit and Celsius readings.
• The temperature range is 20°F to 60°F (-5°C to +15°C).
• The L480B,G has a 20 foot (6 meter) sensing element
APPLICATION
The L480B,G Temperature Controllers operate electric
dampers, valves, and compressor or fan motors to provide
