FM approved safety temperature limiter ASCON

Safe Shutdown with the FM Approved Safety Limiter
With Status Retention on Power-On Condition

The Safety Limiter of the Ascon’s “gammadue”Ò series is designed to meet the requirements of safety applications in the thermal market to limit an oven or furnace temperature where a runaway condition may compromise operator safety, equipment or product.

In a typical ‘High Limit’ application the operator sets the limit set point few degrees below the temperature that would cause an unsafe condition. If set point is reached the Safety Limiter output relay contact opens to shutdown the heat source. The relay will not automatically reset after the temperature goes below the set point value; the operator must manually either push the ‘reset’ key or a remote reset switch.

The Safety Limiter also includes a relay or SSR output to actuate an alarm. The Safety Limiter is approved by Factory Mutual (FM) under the category ‘Fuel and Combustion Controls’ section ‘Fire Protection’ in the FM “Approval Guide”.
Two models are available, the M4 with 48X48mm front size and the C1 with 48X24mm front size for applications requiring space-saving but including features typically found only in larger models. All the models can be configured to have Status Retention on Power-On condition. Front panel protection is IP65.

The FM approved Safety Limiter guarantees the best in safety of ovens and furnaces and, in some cases, lower costs on insurance premiums.
