Three phase standard. Single phase available as option. Add "-1" before thermal protector designator. **Thermal Overload Protection

Product Features and Benefits:

SUPERIOR CHEMICAL RESISTANCE: Inert to most aqueous acid, alkaline, anodizing and pickling solutions up to 212°F (100°C).

RUGGED CONSTRUCTION: Heavy wall fluoropolymer (PTFE) covered stainless steel element reduces permeation and eliminates the need for gas purge systems. Guaranteed 100% pinhole free.

OUTSTANDING PERFORMANCE: Low watt density design (10 watts/square inch, 1.5w/cm2) for long service life. Excellent choice for electroless chemistries.

CORROSION RESISTANT HEAD: Vapor tight, flame retardant polypropylene terminal enclosure with 3-foot (.9m) flexible PVC liquid tight conduit.

SAFETY FEATURES:

•	Grounded internal metal element.
•	Thermal protector built in. Replaceable P1 fuse standard for solutions up to 190°F (88°C).
•	Non-floating construction.

CERTIFICATIONS: UL, CSA, and CE.

SIZES: 2,000 watts to 12,000 watts.

VOLTAGES: 120, 240 or 480 volts. 208, 380, 415, 600 and other voltages available. Three phase standard, single phase available.
