L22 Limit Controller for Compact Safety
Slim DIN-rail unit with fast and flexible protection
The L22 limit controller delivers reliable over-temperature protection in a compact DIN-rail design that saves space while ensuring safety. Featuring high-speed 5Hz sampling and universal input, it detects abnormal process conditions in real time. Dual relay outputs offer flexible shutdown or alarm options. With optional Modbus communication and remote reset functions, the L22 helps reduce downtime and improve production line safety. It’s an excellent choice for compact machinery, OEM systems, or distributed safety panels where size and performance both matter.


Intuitive Front Panel Operation
Clear display with quick-access buttons and LED indicators
The L22 features a compact LED display showing process value, status, and unit. Four tactile keys provide fast access to parameter navigation, setpoint editing, and system setup. Status indicators include output activity, unit (°C/°F), and lock status. This layout ensures easy, error-free operation even in low-light environments, and helps operators avoid accidental setting changes during production.
Universal Input for Process Signals
Accepts thermocouple, RTD, voltage and current
L22 accepts a wide range of input types including thermocouples (J, K, T, E, etc.), PT100 RTDs, and linear analog signals such as 0–60mV, 0–10V, and 4–20mA. Input type and range are easily selectable via the front keypad or PC software. This flexibility allows seamless integration with a wide range of process sensors in temperature, pressure, and flow control applications.
Flexible Output for Protection & Alarm
Supports relay, SSR, Triac and analog retransmission
L22 provides two output channels configurable as limit control or alarms. Output types include relay, SSR drive (5V/14V), or Triac. Alarm 2 and analog retransmission are available as optional add-ons for enhanced functionality. With customizable alarm modes and reliable output switching, L22 ensures dependable shutdown or notification when limits are exceeded.

Programming Port for Easy Setup
Connects to PC software for cloning and configuration
L22 features a built-in Micro USB programming port designed for offline configuration, firmware updates, and automatic testing. With the use of BrainChild’s programming cable (CC98-1) and adapter (PA98-1), users can connect the device to a PC or ATE (Automatic Test Equipment) system for efficient pre-deployment setup. This port is not intended for use during regular operation and should only be connected when the unit is powered but not actively controlling a process.
BC-SET Pro Configuration Software
Easy parameter setup, backup and firmware upgrade
BC-SET Pro is the official configuration software developed by BrainChild for its over-temperature protection controllers. With a streamlined and intuitive interface, the software allows users to connect via USB programming cable and quickly configure control parameters. It supports efficient parameter editing, setting duplication between devices, and firmware upgrades to maintain device performance and stability. BC-SET Pro also enables offline configuration with the ability to save and manage multiple profiles, making it ideal for production environments, system deployment, and ongoing maintenance. Whether for new setup or existing system adjustment, this tool helps engineers and technicians simplify workflow, reduce setup time, and ensure consistent configuration across all devices.

Batch Read/Write for Multiple Controllers
BC-SET allows users to connect multiple controllers of the same model and perform batch parameter read/write by defining a node address range. This feature significantly streamlines configuration in OEM or multi-device environments.

Clear and Accessible System Menu
The system menu offers quick access to key operations like Rescan (F5), Read Data (F6), Write Data (F7), Write Multiple (F8), and Communication Settings (F9). Built-in hotkeys support fast, efficient navigation.

Intuitive Communication Setup Interface
The communication settings window lets users define COM port, baud rate, parity, data bits, and stop bits — with a “Default” button for quick reset and “Save and Exit” to finalize setup. Designed to reduce setup errors.

Visual Profile Editor for Programmable Controllers
For controllers with profile functionality, BC-SET provides a graphical editor to configure temperature ramp/soak segments. Users can easily read, modify, and write profile parameters for precise thermal process control.

IP-rated Protection for Industrial Use
IP50 front panel and IP20 terminals housing
The L22 is built with an IP50-rated front panel for dust protection and IP20-rated housing for terminals and rear components. This rating is ideal for clean indoor industrial settings such as electrical panels or PLC enclosures. The design ensures reliable long-term operation by reducing exposure to dust and unintended contact.
