Starter Kit Instruction Manual Maintenance 51
Current adjustment
[28] Set the selector (3) to mode Setting ◦C
and adjust the temperature value to 25 ◦C
by means of the Set Temperature 5 tuns
portentiometer P8 (2).
[29] On the external power supply, rise slowly
the voltage to 30 V and the current to 1.5 A.
,→Thetension should stabilize at 30 V
Note: If the current is too high, stop the test
and verify the transistors Q1 to Q4 (1) and
their associated resistors.
There might be a soldering problem. In this
case, fix it and repeatthe procedure from step
[10].
[30] Set the selector (3) to mode Real I.
,→Value displayed: ≤1A.
[31] Set the selector (3) to mode Real ◦C.
,→Value displayed should tend to the defined
value.
[32] Wait for a certain time and check the
Peltier temperature with a thermometer
[33] Set the selector (3) to mode Setting +I.
[34] Increase the limit of positive current to
3.5A by means of the +I trimmer (4) located
on the front panel.
[35] Increase the limit of negative current to
5A by means of the -I trimmer (5) located on
the front panel.
[36] Change the temperature reference to -25
◦C and check the displayed current.
