Specifications

The Watlow Series 146 is a DIN rail mount, tempera-

ture regulating controller with a thermocouple or RTD
sensor input. The DIN rail mounting offers quick and easy
installation with the use of simple hand tools. The con-
troller may also be flush mounted.

The Series 146 is designed to meet the needs of a

wide range of safety applications. Factory selectable
options include high or low control mode with either
manual or automatic reset on power loss.

The Series 146 has an LED for output status

indication and can be ordered with an integral or remote
adjustable set point, or a fixed set point.
