5.3 Heating up the source
Caution
When the source is operated at any temperature above ambient, the
front face and plate become hot.
The recommended temperature range for the source is 500°C to 1500°C (950°F
to 2750°F). Set the controller to the required value as follows:-
1) When rst switched on the controller goes through a self check procedure.
2) When this check is completed two displays will be visible.
Upper display Actual source temperature
Lower display Set point temperature
3) To modify the set point, press the ‘Up’ or ‘Down’ button until the required
value is obtained.
4) The source will be ready for use at 1450°C (2650°F) approximately 30
minutes after switch on.
5) The output light ‘OP’ indicates the state of the controllers output signal
to the solid state relay which in turn switches the power to the heating
element.
NOTE
All other controller parameters are factory set and locked. It should not
be necessary to adjust them.
