Applications for Thermon TC Ambient Thermostat

Thermon TC Ambient Thermostat with transparent coverThe TC-Ambient thermostat is designed to provide ambient sensing control of electric heat tracing circuits for freeze protection of piping and vessels. This adjustable thermostat can be used to control a single heating circuit or as pilot control of a contactor switching multiple heat tracing circuits.

Indicating lamps for power-on and heater-on are visible through a transparent cover. A rugged nonmetallic enclosure, suitable for harsh industrial environments, provides watertight and dusttight protection (per IP65) to the thermostat switch. External hardware is stainless steel.

The TC-Ambient thermostat meets requirements for use in nonhazardous locations.
