What is HotBoss?

The HotBoss®*100 is a versatile, multi-range temperature transmitter. Operating from 10-30VDC, this unit generates a 4-20mA analog signal proportional to the probe temperature, over the designated range. Probes are available in three forms, 1) ambient air, 2) flat, copper, bolt-down contact for bolting to pillow block or motor mount and 3) tubular, SS with 1/4" NPT bushing for replacing a grease fitting on a gear box. For ambient monitoring under 60C (140F), probe is usually installed on control box. Above 60C, mount probe externally using 6-ft long cable supplied.
