Operation

Heating/Cooling Indicators

When the Watlow controller is applying a heat or cool signal, an LED is indicated on the front panel. The longer the particular LED is on, the more heating/cooling power is being applied. If the LED is continuously on, that indicates full heating/cooling power. If a heating signal is being applied, the LED by the number 1 will be illuminated, if a cooling signal is being applied, the LED by the number 2 will be illuminated.

Air Safety Controller Operation

WARNING!: The alarm set point of this device should never be set higher than +200°C or lower than -80°C as these are the maximum and minimum design temperatures of the chamber system.

A temperature Hi/Lo limit control protects the chamber against thermal runaway due to a primary controller fault or control device failure. The controller is mounted inside the control box and is not to be adjusted by the operator. The input to the Hi/Lo limit control is a shielded type T thermocouple. The thermocouple is mounted in the air-flow plenum and is not directly visible.

The temperature safety controller has two independent set points. One set point is a high temperature safety and the other set point is for low temperature safety. If the chamber exceeds the set point of the high temperature safety, the temperature safety controller will issue an alarm (the red A1 indicator will no longer be visible), which will stop any further heat from being applied by the chamber’s heaters. If the chamber goes below the set point of the low temperature safety, the temperature safety controller will issue an alarm (the red SP indicator will no longer be visible), which will stop any further cooling functions by the chamber. The red “A1” and “SP” indicators are illuminated when the alarm conditions are not present.

When either of the alarm conditions occur, the RESET button on the front of the chamber control panel will no longer be illuminated. The heating/cooling output will not be active until the alarm condition is no longer present and the RESET button has been pushed.

The RESET button will become illuminated upon pushing it when no alarm conditions are present.
