3.1 Function description of the temperature control unit
3.1.1 General functions
This temperature control unit is designed the use of the internal bath as well as for externally
closed applications (see page 28 in section »Connecting an externally closed application«). This
controller generation is characterized by the fact that there is only a single hardware. For a license
fee you will receive an activation key, which allows you to quickly expand the functionality of e.g. a
simple temperature control unit (basic version) to its maximum functionality (professional version)
at any time.
Thanks to the low internal volume and the efficient refrigeration/heat technology (in case of tem-
perature control units with compressor cooling, you will achieve relatively short cooling/heating
rates.
The cooling baths K1x and K2x are designed for both as pure cooling baths as well as in combination
with a hanger thermostat (cooling/heating baths). In combination with a hanger thermostat, the
cooling baths may be used across the entire specified temperature range and can cool at the maxi-
mum operating temperature in continuous operation too. The cooling/heating bath K6 can only be
used in combination with a hanger thermostat.
3.1.2 Other functions
The speed-controlled pump, integrated into many table-top models and some free-standing mod-
els, enables the speed and thus the pressure of the thermal fluid to be controlled and hence opti-
mally matched to the specified application.
The self-optimizing cascade control delivers optimal controller results for regulating levels up and
down, both with setpoint changes and also with exothermic reactions. Temperature control can be
either a-periodic or with a slight overshoot (faster).
Your temperature control unit can be easily integrated into many laboratory automation systems.
This is provided for by the existing standard interfaces Ethernet, USB device and USB host at the
“Pilot ONE”. The optional Com.G@te allows you to expand your temperature control unit by digital
interfaces (RS232 and RS485), an analogue current loop interface (0/4 - 20 mA or 0 - 10 V) and
various digital control options (In/Out).
The removable operating panel (“Pilot ONE”) can also be used as a remote control. If you require a
cable extension, please contact your dealer or the Sales Department at Peter Huber Kältemaschi-
nenbau GmbH. The telephone number for Huber Sales can be found on page 82 in section »Phone
number and company address«.
A Pt100 connection enables you to accomplish external temperature control tasks with ease (re-
quires E-grade Exclusiv or Professional).
The temperature control unit can be retrofitted with an integrated temperature ramp function and
an internal temperature programmer via an “E-grade” upgrade. The “E-grade” upgrade “Exclusiv”
enables you to set and call 3 temperature control programs with 5 program steps each by using the
integrated programmer. The “E-grade” upgrade “Professional” enables you to set and call 10 tem-
perature control programs with a total of 100 program steps by using the integrated programmer.
The temperature control unit has overtemperature protection to DIN EN 61010-2-010, independ-
ent of the control circuit itself.
