Local display and machine control

One device to measure, display, and switch.

The FGP301 puts a Pt100 sensing element, configurable switch logic, and a readable local display at the temperature point, with optional 4–20 mA feedback for the control system.

01

Readable at the machine

A red four-digit LED presents the live temperature locally, with °C/°F selection and a display head that rotates up to 330 degrees for installation visibility.

02

Programmable switching

Set switching temperature and hysteresis from the three front-panel keys without a separate programming device.

03

Flexible control outputs

Configure one or two PNP or NPN switching points, with an optional 4–20 mA temperature signal for PLC, DCS, or recording systems.

04

Compact stainless construction

A stainless housing, common process threads, customizable probe insertion, and IP67 protection support demanding equipment and fluid-system installations.

Configuration paths

Built around the machine, not a shelf number.

Switch strategy

Define one or two trip points, switching direction, hysteresis, and the fail-safe behavior the machine requires.

Output architecture

Match PNP or NPN logic to the controller and add 4–20 mA feedback when continuous temperature trending is needed.

Probe geometry

Choose insertion length around the pipe, vessel, manifold, or equipment housing and the desired response time.

Process connection

Select the G or NPT thread that fits the installation, then confirm pressure and material compatibility with the medium.

Application fit

Temperature switching where equipment needs protection.

Use the FGP301 for local indication, alarms, permissives, interlocks, and continuous temperature feedback on machinery and industrial fluid systems.

Start with the operating conditions

Define the trip condition and the control response.

Share the normal temperature, alarm or shutdown point, hysteresis, medium, process connection, probe insertion, PNP or NPN logic, analog-output requirement, and installation environment. Firelands will help define the right FGP301 configuration.
