General Description

The Model 5CJ-020 and Model 5CK-020 are proportional temperature controllers with  "zero voltage switching" that use thermocouple sensors. Output is through a Triac rated at 5 amperes @ 120 VAC.

The 5CJ models use Type J thermocouples, while the 5CK models use the Type K thermocouples. The type K thermocouple senses higher temperatures (0° to 1250°C) than the type J (0° to 750°C). The unit provides lead break protection - an open thermocouple will de-energize the load.

The proportional bandwidth is adjustable from 2°C to 20°C.

(Units which are similar but which use On/Off control through an SPDT relay are the models 5CJ-010 and 5CK-010. Unlike the -020 models, they do not provide lead break protection.)
 


In summary, here are the features:
  • Control mode: Proportional with  "zero voltage switching" (for a similar unit with ON/OFF control see the 5CJ-010 and 5CK-010 models).
    • 2°C to 20°C adjustable bandwidth.
  • Temperature ranges:
    • 0° to 750°C (32° to 1382°F) for 5CJ Models.
    • 0° to 1250°C (32° to 2282°F) for 5CK Models.
  • Set point stability:
    • ± 3°C with ambient over 0° to 55°C (0.05°C/°C)
    • 0.4°C with line voltage 120 ± 10% VAC (0.017°C/volt)
  • Sensors:
    • Type J thermocouple for 5CJ Models.
    • Type K thermocouple for 5CK Models.
  • Thermocouple lead length: Accuracy will remain within specifications for thermocouple lead length up to or equivilant to 150 ohms resistance.
  • Lead break protection: An open thermocouple will de-energize the load.
  • Input power: 120 VAC ± 10%, 50/60 HZ.
  • Output: Triac rated at 5A @ 120 VAC.
  • Power dissipation: 1 watt, nominal plus 1.4 watt per load ampere.
  • Ambient temperature limits:
    • Operating: 0° to 55°C (32° to 131°F).
    • Storage: -40° to 70°C (-40° to 158°F).
  • Mounting: Plastic snap-track 2.9"x4" (72.50MMx101.60MM).
  • Terminations:
    • Screwdriverless barrier strip requires no tools.
    • Wire range of #18 to #24 AWG.
  • Weight: 5.5 oz (160 grams) maximum.
  • Dimensions: 4.0"x2.9"x1.4" max. (101.60MMx72.50MMx35.56MM) (see the mechanical specifications drawing in the implementation notes below).

Implementation Notes

The controller is set with an on-board potentiometer. We have notes on changing the temperature range of a potentiometer used with this controller in our library:CHANGING A RESISTOR-BASED TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT RANGE.
