T19PC Type Temperature Controls

with NEMA 4X Raintight Enclosures

Application Installation
IMPORTANT: The T19PC Type Temperature Dimensions
Controls are intended to control equipment under 2-3/16 1-1/16
normal operating conditions. Where failure or 56 27
malfunction of a T19 control could lead to an

abnormal operating condition that could cause 44
personal injury or damage to the equipment or other

The T19PC type electromechanical temperature
controls are designed for use in many agricultural
applications. The T19PC controls have rugged
Noryl® plastic enclosures and are UL Listed as
NEMA Type 4X and for use in National Electrical Code
(NEC) Article 547 Agricultural Environments
1/2
(ANSI/NFPA 70). See Figure 1 and Technical 12
Specifications.
The adjustable T19PC type temperature controls have 2-7/8
O-ring sealed external setpoint adjustment knobs and 73
range scales with oversized markings for easy
readability in low light. The exposed portion of the
liquid expansion sensing elements has been tested 2-13/16
per Article 547 of the NEC. 71
