1.3.3 Obligations of the operators
Carefully read the operation manual before operating the temperature control unit. Please observe
the safety instructions. When operating the temperature control unit, wear appropriate personal
protective equipment (e.g. safety goggles, protective gloves, non-slip shoes).
1.4 General information
1.4.1 Description of workstation
The workstation is located at the control panel in front of the temperature control unit. The work-
station is determined by the customer's connected peripheries. Accordingly, it must be designed
safe by the responsible body. The workstation design also depends on the applicable requirements
of the German occupational health and safety regulations [BetrSichV] and the risk analysis for the
workstation.

The overheat protection can, for instance, can be realized using a suitable fill level sensor or a suitable temper-
ature limiter.
d)
Optional at the choice of the manufacturer.
Combined electronic low level and overtemperature protection
This temperature control unit has been equipped with electronic overtemperature protection and
low level protection. Instead of a mechanical float switch, temperature sensors are employed on the
surface of the heating coils. These sensors monitor overtemperature at this potential ignition
source, thus ensuring that the controller regulates the heating coil temperatures regulates below
the critical temperature (combustion point of the thermal fluid). A message is displayed on the
>Touchscreen< [88].
Mechanical tools are no longer required for setting the trip values for the overtemperature protec-
tion. A software tool is used instead. The threshold value for the overtemperature protection can be
set only if a code randomly generated by “Pilot ONE” beforehand is entered correctly. As with the
mechanical tool, accidental settings are thus prevented. The type of overtemperature protection
function and of low level protection depends on the temperature control unit.
