Athena Technologies OTC25 N Wiring, Operation, Athena Series OTC25 Digital Temperature Controller

Wiring

IMPORTANT: All electrical wiring connections should be made only by trained personnel using Class 1 wiring, and in strict accordance with the National Electrical Code and local regula- tions. Both of the incoming power lines should be fused with 2AG, 0.5 A maximum rated fuses.

The OTC25 controller has built-in circuitry to reduce the effects of electrical noise (RFI) from various sources;

however, power and signal wires should always be kept separate. We recommend separating wires into one bundle for power (from line power and output) and one bundle for signal (from thermocouple).

The OTC25 power supply accepts 100 through 250 Vac and 120 through 250 Vdc line power without any switch settings or polarity considerations.
