CSC400 Features
CSC400 Controller Features List
No complex programming required. Simple menu interface provided to enable/disable burners and adjust
temperature setpoints
Dual burner system with three solenoid outputs each (6 total).
12/24VDC operation. Solar capable as well.
CSA approved for Class I, Div 2 locations
Operational ambient temperature of -40° to +60° Celsius
CSA approved C22.2 No 199-M89. Combustion safety controls and solid-state Ignitors for Gas & Oil burning
equipment
CSA B149.3 - 10 compliant, meets NFPA standards
Type 4x enclosure, corrosive resistant and weatherproof
Modbus RTU (over RS485) communications capability with full status and Shutdown logging readout
Local and Remote On/Off controls
Brownout Protection. CSC400 will continue in previous state if a brownout/blackout condition is detected.
First out annunciation of shutdowns
Safety lockout for high temperature setting
Onboard solenoid driver option for power reduction to solenoids and peak-hold solenoids. Each solenoid can be
set to an independent low-power setting.
Onboard solenoid output short circuit detection and notification (via LED display and Alarm Status)
Three adjustable type-K thermocouple inputs for monitoring three separate temperature points (2 process temp.
& 1 high temp.)
Pilotless burner control selectable.
Provides control logic for FI (flame ionization) ignition systems (burners, incinerators)
Five Shutdown inputs (dry contact switches required): High/Low Gas (ie: pressure shutdown), Level Shutdown,
and Auxiliary 1 & 2 Shutdowns. Additional shutdowns may be added in series. Any shutdown turns off both
burners.
Two isolated, fail-safe, solid-state, auxiliary, configurable relay outputs (NC, COM, NO : NC-COM in Alarm
state, NO-COM when burner(s) is(are) on)
Two 4-20mA powered outputs. Can be configured to output any of the three thermocouples as either a linear
temperature output or a proportional valve output around the selected setpoint temperature. Proportional valve
range is adjustable up to +/- 100°C (200°C total) around the setpoint for smoother temperature transitions. Can
also be configured to output either of the 4-20 Input readings (eg. to an external PLC).
Two 4-20mA (or 1V-5V) inputs with local power-sourcing availability (1A combined current limit for 4-20mA
Inputs and Outputs). Can be configured to alarm and shutdown, or alarm only upon reaching user-defined High
and/or Low levels. May also be used with 4-20mA transmitters for setpoint control of either or both burner
outputs. An OR-ing scheme is used if both 4-20mA Inputs use setpoint control on the same burner. Custom
range and units may be selected.
Thermocouple range: -60°C to 1200°C (-75°F to 2192° F) (Type-K Thermocouple)
Adjustable thermocouple dead band from 1 - 5°C or 2 - 10°F
Easy to read four-line, 20 character LED display indicating thermocouple temperature values, 4-20mA inputs,
shutdowns, and On or Off status for both burners
