Heavy-Duty Digital Thermometer Mounts In Standard Utility Box NCC Model TNC-TM 166 Features Rugged Construction and Easy-to-Read Display


WEST CHICAGO, IL -- The Model TNC-TM 166 Panel Mount Thermometer from AMETEK National Controls Corp. is an easy-to-read digital thermometer that provides continual monitoring of temperature in critical environments and equipment, affording operators a higher degree of efficiency.

The Panel Mount Thermometer features a heavy-duty stainless steel front plate that protects the unit from mechanical shock and blends visually with other stainless steel equipment and an all-metal case that is constructed for rugged operating environments.

The unit fits a standard utility box and can be mounted directly on the equipment or on a remote panel up to 250 feet away. The unit is powered from low voltage AC or DC, eliminating the cost of installation to NEC or other high-voltage electrical standard wiring.

The thermometer has a temperature sensing range of -25°F to 100°F (-32°C to 38°C). Front panel buttons on the unit allow it to display either °F or °C. The set point temperature can be adjusted using up and down buttons on the front panel. When temperatures rise above the set point temperature, an audible alarm and flashing display alert personnel and the unit's relay contacts close. When the temperature falls back below the set point, the alarm condition ceases. The audible alarm can be turned off manually during an alarm condition by depressing a button on the front panel. That interrupts the audible alarm for approximately two and half hours while the display continues to flash.

The unit also is able to detect an open or shorted temperature probe. If a probe is open or shorted, the display panel indicates "Prb", the alarm sounds, and relay contacts close. The alarm continues to sound until the probe error condition is corrected.

AMETEK National Controls Corp. (NCC) is a leader in the design and manufacture of timing and temperature control systems sold into various markets. AMETEK NCC is a unit of a leading global manufacturer of electronic instruments and electric motors with annualized sales of $1.3 billion.
