NVENT THERMAL P000000180 JBS-100-ECP-A Power Connection/Electronic Controller Combination

The Raychem JBS-100-ECP-A is a power connection/electronic controller combination for Raychem Polymeric and Pyrotenax MI cables. Utilizing the features of the Raychem JBS-100-A single-entry power connection with junction box, along with an indicating electronic controller, this assembly allows for local control of a heating circuit. The assembly includes a window and a digital display that shows the monitored actual/set point temperatures and alarm conditions (RTD failure, high or low temperature) if detected. Alarm conditions can be remotely indicated via a form C dry contact. Status LEDs indicate whether the digital display is showing the set point or actual temperature. Programming the set point temperature, dead band, and high and low alarm thresholds on the JBS-100-ECP-A are accomplished using the built-in digital display and push buttons. The JBS-100-ECP-A is programmable to maintain temperatures of 425°F (218°C), can be used with voltages from 100 to 277 Vac, and is capable of switching current up to 30 Amps. A 100-ohm platinum RTD provides feedback for either pipe maintenance or ambient sensing for freeze protection. The power connection/electronic controller combination significantly reduces installation cost. Eliminating wiring and devices to connect separate power connections and thermostats/controllers not only reduces material cost, but also leads to significant labor savings when combined with the cold-applied core sealer and spring clamp terminals characteristic of the JBS-100 line of power connection kits. The kit contains all the necessary materials for a complete installation except one pipe strap, which must be ordered separately. For connection to a Pyrotenax MI cable, a grounding kit is required (ordered separately).
