A limit controller is added to applications to prevent over or under temperature conditions. The limit provides safety assurances against instances where a thermal runaway condition occurs as a result of a failed sensor, controller or output device. The Series L limit controller is recommended for any application where thermal system runaway could result in large product scrap costs, damage to system equipment, potential fire hazard or risk to personnel. All Series L limit controllers are Factory Mutual and CSA approved. These controllers are available with or without an operator interface and can be ordered in square 1/8th DIN panel mount, din rail mount, open board or potted module design configurations. Push-on, quick connect spade terminal or removable screw clamp style terminal block ordering options provide the electrical connections. The microprocessor design platform provides improvements in the performance, repeatability, and accuracy offered by Watlow's current line of basic control products. The Series LV includes an operator interface to allow viewing and selection of the limit set point. A red four character, seven segment LED displays the limit set point. The limit set point selection is made with a continuous turn, velocity sensitive rotary encoder. Push to Set operation reduces accidental limit set point adjustments. Limit set point operating range temperature values are customer definable in the product configuration part number. The Series LF offers fixed limit set points. These units are supplied without an operator interface. Limit set point temperature values are customer definable in the product configuration part number. The features and performance of these products make them ideally suited for a wide range of industrial limit control applications in the food preparation, industrial machinery, packaging and plastic markets. Watlow's Series L limit controllers include industry leading service, support and a 3-year warranty. Features and Benefits Four Character LED Display · Improves limit set point adjustment accuracy.

Watlow Series L ■ 4 ■ Installation 3 Wiring Ó Warning: Use National Electric (NEC) or other country-specific standard wiring and safety practices when wiring and connecting this controller to a power source and to electrical sensors or peripheral devices. Failure to do so may result in damage to equipment and property, and/or injury or loss of life. The terminals on the back of the Series L limits are the same for all of the package styles. They are 6.3 mm (0.25 in) quick connect, push on style terminals or removable screw terminal block. The terminal style is an ordering option. Check the part number to determine your hardware configuration. Refer to the wiring diagrams appropriate for your controller’s configuration. All outputs are referenced to a de-energized state. Wiring Guidelines 1. Use the correct thermocouple type per the model number on the case sticker of the unit. See dimension drawings for sticker locations. • Use correct thermocouple polarity. Red is usually negative. • If you must extend thermocouple leads, use thermocouple extension wire to minimize errors. • Note: Insulated terminals required for quick connect style terminals. For quick connect terminals 1, 2, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10, AMP P/N 3520406-2 or equivalent recommended. Use Amp crimp tool P/N 58078-3, insert 90391-3. For quick connect terminals 3, 4, and 5, AMP P/N 2-520405-2 or equivalent recommended. Amp crimp tool P/N 58078-3, insert 58079-3. ç Caution: FM approval requires limit switches to be suitably enclosed to restrict casual user adjustment. Watlow Series L Be sure you have good crimp connections on all wire connections. • Insulate the thermocouple mounting from the mounting surface to prevent heat migration input errors. • Thermocouple leads should be routed separately from any high voltage lines. • Long lead lengths create electrical resistance. When using a two-wire RTD, there will be an additional 2.6° C (4.7° F) error for every 1Ω of lead length resistance. That resistance when added to the resistance of the RTD element, can result in erroneous input to the temperature controller. 2. In electrically-noisy environments (heavy switching contactors, motors, solenoids, etc.), use shielded thermocouple lead wire with the shield connected at the sensor end only. 3. Use a separate thermocouple to maintain the limit function of this controller; do not parallel thermocouple input from the primary controller. 4. All wiring and fusing must conform to the National Electric Code (NEC) NFPA70 and any other locally applicable codes. 5. Fuse the independent load voltage on the L1 (hot) side and connect it to the common (C) side of the relay. Note: The model number determines the connection terminal style. See below for terminal locations. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 ■ 5 ■ 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Wiring ç Warning: Use National Electric (NEC) or other country-specific standard wiring and safety practices when wiring and connecting this controller to a power source and to electrical sensors or peripheral devices.

Watlow Series L Glossary automatic power reset — A feature in latching limit controllers that does not recognize power outage as a limit condition. When power is restored, the output is re-energized automatically, as long as the temperature is within limits. latched output — Limit control output latches in deenergized condition when over or under temperature condition occurs and cannot be reset unless temperature drops below set point. limit or limit controller — A highly reliable, discrete safety device (redundant to the primary controller) that monitors and limits the temperature of the process or a point in the process. When temperature exceeds or falls below the limit set point, the limit controller interrupts power through the load circuit. A limit controller can protect equipment and people when it is correctly installed with its own power supply, power lines, switch and sensor. manual power reset — A feature in latching limit controllers that does recognize power outage as a limit condition. When power is restored, the output is not reenergized automatically, even if the process is within limits. An operator must use the reset key or switch to manually re-energize the output on power up. manual reset — A feature on a limit controller that requires human intervention to return the limit to normal operation after a limit condition has occurred. safety limit — An automatic limit intended for use in applications where an over-temperature fault may cause a fire. ■ 13 ■ Specifications/Glossar y Ordering Information and Model Numbers Limit Control no user interface L F _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ A A A A _ Set Point Type F Fixed Limit Set Point Line Voltage C 120VÅ (ac) E 230-240VÅ (ac) G 24VÅ (ac) Controller Package 1 Panel Mount, Square 1/8 DIN -Spade Terminals 2 DIN Rail Mount -Spade Terminals 3 Open Board, not potted -Spade Terminals 4 Potted Case -Spade Terminals 5 Panel Mount, Square 1/8 DIN -Screw Terminals 6 DIN Rail Mount -Screw Terminals 7 Open Board, not potted -Screw Terminals Sensor and Scale H Type J -346 to 1900 Degrees F J Type J -210 to 1038 Degrees C K Type K -454 to 2500 Degrees F L Type K -270 to 1370 Degrees C M Type T -454 to 750 Degrees F N Type T -270 to 400 Degrees C P 100Ω RTD -328 to 1472 Degrees F R 100Ω RTD -200 to 800 Degrees C S Type E -328 to 1470 Degrees F T Type E -200 to 800 Degrees C Limit Type U High Limit, Manual Power Reset W High Limit, Auto Power Reset Y Low Limit, Manual Power Reset Z Low Limit, Auto Power Reset Fixed Limit Set Point Value * XXXX Limit Set Point Value** Overlay/Custom Option A Standard *Note: Limit set point must fall within the sensor operating range. **Note: A (-) is used in the left digit of the operating range to indicate negative values.

Frequently Answers and Questions
What are the mounting options for the Series L limit controllers?
The Series L limit controllers are available in square 1/8th DIN panel mount, din rail mount, open board or potted module design configurations. Push-on, quick connect spade terminal or removable screw clamp style terminal block ordering options provide the electrical connections.
What is the purpose of the Series L limit controller?
A limit controller is added to applications to prevent over or under temperature conditions. The limit provides safety assurances against instances where a thermal runaway condition occurs as a result of a failed sensor, controller or output device.
What types of sensors can be used with the Series L limit controllers?
The Series L limit controllers can be used with thermocouples (Type E, J, K, T) or RTDs (2-wire platinum, 100 Ω, DIN curve).
