Perfect•Temp Main Controller
The primary purpose of the main controller is to deliver consistent, precisely controlled
electrical voltage to the heater pads. The controller accepts 200 to 240 VAC input and
delivers the necessary output voltage and current to the pads.
The second function of the main controller is to time there rethermalization cycle.
Once the cycle has started, a red digital display begins counting down from the programmed
time. When the programmed time has elapsed, a signal will sound for 10 seconds.
If the main controller is not turned off at the completion of the rethermalization cycle, a
hold cycle will begin which will apply heat to the food for two minutes. At the end of the
two-minute heat cycle, the alarm will once again sound for 10 seconds. This sequence will
repeat indefinitely until the main controller is turned off.
The last feature, which is standard on the model Station Commander controller, is a
three-event, 24-hour, automatic timer. Once set for the start times of all three meals, the
automatic timer will automatically start there rethermalization cycle at each mealtime. This
feature eliminates the need for each rethermalization cycle to be started manually. This
feature is especially suited to applications where multiple Perfect•Temp carts are in use and
are to be started sequentially according to the serving schedule.
A safety system automatically disconnects power from the Perfect•Temp cart whenever
the roll-in refrigerator door is opened.
The controllers also include a standard indicator light which illuminates whenever the
rethermalization cycle is in process, as well as a “ready” light that lights whenever the cart
has been plugged in and is ready to be activated.
