Summary

Introduction

What's New

Section 1 Overview

Section 2 Installation and Wiring

Operator Safety Considerations

Outlines important safety precautions for operators during installation and servicing.

Wiring

Refers to diagrams for typical connection configurations.

Temperature Sensor Connections

Details terminal assignments and wiring for temperature sensors (RTDs).

Power Connections

Details the terminal connections for supplying power to the controller.

Initial Cable Test

Procedures for testing heating cable integrity before initial power-up.

Section 3 Programming and Configuration

3.5 Control Point Setup

Configures parameters for each control point (A or B).

3.5.3 SWITCH CONTROL MODE

Selects the control algorithm (proportional, deadband, etc.) for maintaining temperature.

3.5.4 PROPORTIONAL BAND SETTING

Adjusts the proportional band for precise temperature control with SSRs.

3.5.5 DEADBAND SETTING

Configures the deadband for contactor control to prevent rapid cycling.

3.5.7 SWITCH CURRENT RATING SETTING (SSR ONLY)

Defines the current rating of the output switch for SSR protection.

3.5.8 CIRCUIT BREAKER CURRENT RATING SETTING (SSR ONLY)

Helps prevent circuit breaker trips due to in-rush current.

3.5.9 MAXIMUM POWER SETTING (SSR ONLY)

Limits the maximum average power applied to a heat trace circuit.

3.5.11 TS FAIL MODE (V3.11 AND UP)

Determines controller action when temperature sensors fail.

3.5.12 TEMPERATURE SENSOR CONTROL MODE

Selects how the controller uses temperature sensor inputs for control.

3.7.1 TEMPERATURE SENSOR 1 FAILURE ALARM

Indicates an open or shorted failure of the TS 1 temperature sensor.

3.7.10 CONTROL TEMPERATURE SENSOR FAILURE ALARM

Alarms failure of the designated control temperature sensor.

3.8.7 GROUND-FAULT TRIP ALARM

Sets upper limit for ground-fault leakage, tripping output off.

3.8.17 OVERCURRENT TRIP ALARM (SSR ONLY)

Protects the SSR output switch from excessive current.

3.8.18 SWITCH FAILURE ALARM

Indicates if the output switch has failed closed.

3.8.24 EEROM DATA FAILURE ALARM

Indicates a failure in the controller's nonvolatile memory.

Section 4 Monitored Parameters

4.2.1 CONTROL TEMPERATURE

The temperature used by the controller to determine output status.

Section 5 Control Modes

5.2 Switch Control Modes

Explains the different switch control modes and their parameters.

5.2.1 PROPORTIONAL CONTROL (FOR USE WITH SSRS ONLY)

Describes proportional control implemented via SSRs for temperature regulation.

5.2.2 DEADBAND CONTROL (FOR USE WITH EXTERNAL CONTACTORS)

Explains deadband control used with external contactors for temperature regulation.

5.2.3 PROPORTIONAL AMBIENT SSR CONTROL (FOR USE WITH SSRS ONLY)

Describes proportional control using ambient temperature with SSRs.

Section 6 Troubleshooting

6.2 Common Problem Areas

Identifies common issues, symptoms, and checks for heat trace circuits.

6.2.2 RTDS

Discusses RTD failures, wiring issues, and troubleshooting methods.

6.3 Common Alarms—What to look for

Provides a guide to common alarms and their potential causes.
