Proline Low-temperature Thermostats
20 Preparation YACE0072 / 21.08.07
6 Preparation
6.1 Assembly and siting
− Site the unit on a flat surface
− The unit must not be put into operation if its
temperature during storage or transport has dropped
below the dew point.
Wait for about one hour.
− The unit may NEVER be overturned nor put upside
down!
− Do not cover the ventilation openings at the back of
the control head and on all sides of the lower section
of the unit.
− Leave at least 40 cm of free space on all sides.
− For operation as bath thermostat, set the bypass valve
to internal (without external loads) (Ì Section 3).
−
Plug the (high resistance
) connector into the
corresponding socket 51H on the back of the control
head, the Bus-cable into the plug 70S and secure
both.
− Only RP 890 and RP 1290: In case of disturbing
dewing, connect the heating of the bath bridge. Plug
the supplied T-piece adaptor cable for the LAUDA
device bus into the 70S socket and secure it. Connect
it with the connection cable of the bath bridge heating.
− Plug the bus connector of the Command console also
into the 70S socket or into the T-piece and secure it.
− Further T-adaptors are available as accessories
EKS 073.
− Avoid condensation of air humidity: Connect nitrogen
or dry air with a low volume flow for superposition to
the nipples of the bath covers of the minimum
temperature thermostats RP 890 and RP 1290.
Operation with external loads
(Circulating thermostat) continue at ÌSection 6.4.
− Check whether the pump connectors at the side and back are fitted with sealing
caps (Ì Section 3) or that hoses are fitted for external loads.
− With bath temperatures o
ver 70°C the supplied self-adhesive label
should be applied on the bath at an easily visible point.
− Do not carry out technical changes on the device!
In particular, it is not allowed to bore into the edges of the bath!
− The unit can be safely operated up to an ambient temperature of 40°C.
− An increased ambient temperature reduces the cooling capacity.
