Series FM Immersion Temperature Control

 
Compact and low cost, model FM-437 employs a bimetal element inside an immersion well. Instrument is detachable form the well, allowing maintenance without draining system. Visible calibrated dial reduces "start up" time and speeds set point changing. Contacts are hermetically sealed and mercury wetted. High current (up to 17A) capacity switches available on special order.
