Flue Gas Temperature

Draft ControllerFeatures

[Technical Information]

The JC-15D Flue Gas Temperature Monitor is a microprocessor-based indicating instrument with a heavy duty thermocouple assembly. Flue gas temperature is continuously displayed using a highly visible backlit LCD display.

Low Boiler Efficiency Alarm Message and Contact

  • Elevated stack temperature will indicate reduced boiler efficiency
  • Every 40F increase in flue gas temperature results in an approximate 1% decrease in boiler efficiency

Burner Shutdown Contact and Message

  • Dangerously high temperatures place the boiler at risk of serious over-heating damage
  • Provides additional protection against mud-filled low water cut out float switch failures

High Visibility Bargraph and Numeric Display

  • 4 Digit Numeric Display
  • 200 Segment Bargraph
  • Bargraph Alarm Setpoint Markings
  • High Intensity, Long Life LED Backlighting
  • NEMA 4 Front Panel

Field Adjustable using English-Language Menus

  • Inputs: Type J or K Thermocouple
  • 4-20 mAdc Output Scaling
  • Fahrenheit or Centigrade
  • Bargraph Scaling
  • Alarm Modes, Setpoints, Deadbands, and Time Delays

Flexible Communications for Data Logging

  • 4-20 mAdc Temperature Re-transmission
  • RS485 Modbus Interface

Thermocouple Assembly

  • Type J Thermocouple
  • Constructed of a seal welded inconel sheath for corrosion protection
  • Can be directly installed in the boiler’s flue gas outlet
  • It includes a ½” male NPT process connection, cast iron head with thermal block, and ½” female NPT electrical connection
