Oven Thermocouple Kit

This Service Kit provides the parts and instructions necessary to replace one temperature-sensing or high limit thermo- couple in any of the following Middleby Marshall oven models:

•	PS200 Series uses Kit P/N 33985	•	PS536 uses Kit P/N 33985	• PS570 uses Kit P/N 33984
•	PS360 Series uses Kit P/N 33984	•	PS555 uses Kit P/N 33984

These instructions include replacement procedures for ovens built with the current flanged thermocouple, AND for ovens built with the obsolete thermocouple without a flange (P/N 28071-0001).

IMPORTANT - READ THIS BEFORE YOU BEGIN!

The thermocouple in your Kit has three leads:

•The red and white leads connect directly to the thermocouple terminals on the oven’s temperature controller (or high limit control module, as appropriate), or to a local terminal block that in turn is connected to one of these units.

•The uninsulated lead is a ground wire for the thermocouple’s protective sheath. The ground connection helps to drain any radio-frequency disturbances from the thermocouple before the signal enters the temperature controller or high limit control module. For a temperature-sensing thermocouple, the ground lead MUST be connected to the ground terminal on the temperature controller. For a high limit thermocouple, the ground lead should be connected to a chassis ground or to the mounting screw for the high limit control module.

Some early thermocouples may have either two or four leads:

•The two-lead thermocouple is simply an earlier version of the current model, without the ground lead. When replacing a two-lead thermocouple, it will be necessary to connect the new ground lead.

•The four-lead thermocouple is actually a dual-function unit which sends its signal to both the temperature controller and the high limit control module. Current ovens use separate thermocouples for these functions. When replacing a four-lead thermocouple, it will be necessary to use a SECOND KIT to install the high limit thermocouple. In addition, any oven equipped with these early thermocouples should have all of its thermocouples updated at the same time. For a PS570 or PS570S oven, this will require THREE THERMOCOUPLE KITS - two for the existing thermocouples, and one for the new, separate high limit.
