Item Function
SOFT CUTOUT and HARD CUTOUT are limit parameters that shut off power to the heat source
if the well temperature exceeds the set limit value.
The Soft Cutout is a safety barrier to protect probes from temperatures more than their specified
temperature limits.
The Hard Cutout protects the Calibrator from irreparable internal damage. See “Set Soft Cutout”
on page 2-37.
Note
The Soft Cutout is user configurable and should be set within 5 °C to 10 °C above the
temperature limit of the instrument being calibrated. The Hard Cutout is not user
configurable and is set by the factory to approximately 160 °C.
If the cutout is activated because of an excessive well temperature, the Calibrator enters a
“Cutout mode” where power to the heat source is shut off to immediately cool the Calibrator and
instrument. When in Cutout mode, the instrument displays “
CUTOUT” above the Stability Status
indicator. The instrument stays in Cutout mode until the temperature is below the cutout
SETPOINT and the cutout is reset. See “Reset an Over-Temperature Cutout” on page 2-38.
