Used Watlow F4T Heater Controller - Model #F4T1A1AAA1A4AAA
Includes the F4T (Model #F4T1A1AAA1A4AAA), a universal input module (FMHA-RAAA-AFAA), and a solid state relay module (FMHA-KAAA-AFAA)
This was purchased for a project, configured as a 2 channel controller, and then was never actually used and pulled when the project was cancelled.
Be sure to check the part number to ensure the controller is the correct configuration for your application.
