Have a qualified installer select the circuit, mounting and external temperature control for the application.
Product questions and answers
Does SS2412 include an adjustable thermostat?
No. The listing explicitly says that a thermostat is not included. Appropriate external sensing and control must be selected separately.
Is another 23.5-inch strip an equivalent replacement?
Not on length alone. SS2412 is listed at 240V and 1000W with a stainless-steel sheath; verify the required voltage, power, material and mounting drawing before substitution.
Can I use the 1200°F sheath rating to set my process temperature?
No. It is a maximum sheath-temperature limit. The controller, heat transfer and process losses determine the operating temperature; the rating does not promise a particular workpiece temperature.
