Frequently asked questions
Common questions about CONTROL COMPANY from 3G Electric.
What is the temperature range and accuracy of Control Company digital pocket thermometers?
Control Company digital pocket thermometers are available with measurement ranges of -58°F to 302°F (-50°C to 150°C) or -58°F to 572°F (-50°C to 300°C). Accuracy options include ±0.4°C, ±1°C, and ±1.5°C depending on the model. Resolution is 0.1°F / 0.1°C across the range. For example, MPN 4378 offers ±0.4°C accuracy over the full -58°F to 572°F span, while MPN 4052 provides ±1°C accuracy over -58°F to 302°F. These specifications suit field service, HVAC, food processing, and laboratory spot-check applications.
What are the bristle materials and lengths available for Control Company antistatic lab brushes?
Control Company antistatic lab brushes are offered with two bristle configurations: synthetic conductive fibers (MPN 3321, 6-inch overall length) and natural hair combined with synthetic conductive fibers (MPN 3323, 9-inch overall length). Both variants feature non-sparking construction and are designed to dissipate static charge during cleaning. The conductive fibers help prevent electrostatic discharge that could damage sensitive equipment or create ignition risks in hazardous environments. These brushes are used for cleaning delicate surfaces and components where spark-free operation is required.
Which Control Company thermometer models offer the highest accuracy?
The Control Company MPN 4378 digital pocket thermometer provides the highest accuracy in the range at ±0.4°C, covering -58°F to 572°F (-50°C to 300°C) with 0.1°F / 0.1°C resolution. Other models offer ±1°C accuracy (MPNs 4042, 4049, 4052, 4371) or ±1.5°C accuracy (MPN 4050). The ±0.4°C model is suited to applications requiring tighter measurement tolerance, such as process monitoring or calibration checks, while the ±1°C and ±1.5°C models are appropriate for general HVAC, food safety, and maintenance spot-checks.
Are Control Company pocket thermometers suitable for food processing and HVAC applications?
Yes. Control Company digital pocket thermometers are commonly used in HVAC, refrigeration, food processing, and laboratory environments. Their temperature ranges cover both cold-chain and process-heat measurements, from -58°F (-50°C) up to 572°F (300°C) on full-range models. Accuracy of ±1°C or better and 0.1° resolution support routine checks such as supply/return air temperatures, refrigeration case temperatures, cooking oil temperatures, and general process monitoring. The pocket-sized format allows one-handed operation during field service calls.
What is the difference between Control Company MPN 3321 and MPN 3323 antistatic brushes?
MPN 3321 is a 6-inch antistatic lab brush with synthetic conductive fibers. MPN 3323 is a 9-inch antistatic lab brush with natural hair bristles combined with synthetic conductive fibers. Both are non-sparking and designed to dissipate static charge. The longer 9-inch brush provides extended reach for cleaning larger surfaces or accessing recessed areas, while the 6-inch model is more compact for precision work. Bristle material choice may affect cleaning action and compatibility with specific surfaces or solvents.
Does 3G Electric supply Control Company products globally?
Yes. 3G Electric ships Control Company products worldwide. The catalog includes industrial digital pocket thermometers, antistatic lab brushes, tally counters, and power supplies. Technical buyers can request specifications, lead times, and pricing for single units or volume orders. 3G Electric provides documentation and quotation support for procurement specialists and maintenance managers sourcing Control Company instruments for global operations.
