TEMPERATURE PROBES
GENERAL FEATURES
- EC-- series temperature probes are the sensors
used by the control unit to get the information requi-
red for its operation.
- The sensing element is made up of linearised NTC
thermistors.
TECHNICAL DATA
- Cable clamp: G 1/4.
- Operating temperature: - 40 to 150°C.
- Connection between probes and control units by
means of double-wire cable, 1 mm2 min. section and
1000 metres max. length (for higher lengths increase
the cable section to keep resistance constant).
NOTE
: the control unit also works with probes EC01
(outside probe), EC02 (contact probe) and EC03 (im-
mersion probe); resistance values are similar to those
tabulated below.

CONNECTIONS AND TESTS
ELECTRIC CONNECTIONS
Fit a small switch with 1A fuse valves on control unit
supply line for protecting the servo control and turn-
ing off the power when removing the control unit from
the base.
Electric connections between probes and control unit
shall be performed by two-wire cables with 1 mm2
section and max. 1000 metres length; if higher cable
lengths are required, increase the cable section in or-
der to keep cable total resistance constant.
