The circulation controller consists of thermostat, temperature sensor, heating pipe, water level controller and circulating pump. The tank is made of high quality sheet panel and its surface is plastic molded. it has stainless inner layer. The refrigerating system is consists of compressor, condenser, evaporator and other components.

The equipment relies on the balance of cold and hot power to achieve control the temperature precisely, the circulation pump make it has higher temperature uniform in the bath. The circulation pump in addition to meet their own temperature control needs, but also use for delivery the constant temperature bath liquid outside.

In the bottom of the right side of the cycle controller is equipped with circulating bath liquid of the inlet and outlet connections, in order to equip with external bath for connection use. Temperature controller is a double four-digit display continuous PID digital controller, consists of a CPU processor and the external circuit, it used Pt100 platinum resistance as a temperature sensing element, with high control accuracy, good stability, meanwhile it has timing, over-temperature alarm and lack of liquid level protection and other alarm functions.

3. Operation of the product

3.1 Preparation before operation

The products should be used work normally under these following conditions:

- Ambient temperature: 5°C~35°C; Relative humidity:≤85%.

- Atmospheric pressure:(86~106)KPa.

- Elevation not higher than 2000m.

- Power supply:(220±22)V (50±1)Hz.

- Keep away from heating sources, no intense shock source and strong electromagnetic field around.

The base of the equipment should be placed flat, and made of non-combustible material.

A space of not less than 300cm should be left around the product (front, behind, ventilated grid), and well ventilated.

The unit is equipped with a compressor. Do not operate the unit immediately after transport, it should be placed in the correct position wait for (1 ~ 2) days then start to work.

When filling the bath, please be careful not to pour the liquid inside the indicator, it is recommended that the maximum injection level below the edge of the bath 30mm or above the 2/3 total height, to rise the float to the highest position.

According the different temperature range, to fill the tank with different liquid medium. (Do not use over-temperature)

When the operating temperature between 5°C to 80°C, the liquid medium should be purified water.

When the operating temperature is above 80 °C, the liquid medium should be mineral oil (Please note that the ignition of the oil to avoid a fire!)

When the operating temperature is below 5°C, please note the risk of ice! To recommend the liquid medium should be the ethanol or ethylene glycol.

If need an external bath, it should removed the rubber tube that connect the inlet and outlet, use the spare parts (or provide by yourself) rubber hose to connect the external bath of the inlet and outlet directly.

Note: when equipped the external circulation, it should ensure the inlet and outlet of the external bath and the inlet and outlet of the unit are in a horizontal plane.

After long time operation in low temperature, the ice will be formed on evaporator and pipelines. If the temperature is not accuracy, please after turn off the compressor, heating defrost, And due to the melting of the ice the box will have water seepage phenomenon.

Note: During the use of the device, the power supply of the nose and the aviation plug must be connected to the machine, otherwise it cannot be used normally.

STEP is set as 30°C and TIME as 1min, indicating to heat up from RT to 30°C at the maximum speed and within the minimum time. (Heating speed is required, but heating up should be in a minimum time).

Upon Running for 1min, the program will remain in the section because of the waiting temperature: when the controller is in the section of gradient heating, the section is time up. When the set value of temperature is > the measured value of temperature + waiting temperature, the controller will be automatically suspended till the set value of temperature is < (measured value of temperature + waiting temperature) before entering the next curve.

When the controller is in the section of gradient cooling, the section is time up. If the set

value of temperature is < (measured value of temperature - waiting temperature), the controller will be automatically suspended till the set value of temperature is > (measured value of temperature - waiting temperature) to enter the next curve.

3.3 Description of Program Operating:

3.1 To revise each parameter, it is required to press "SET" key for confirmation before such revision may be valid.

3.2 With all the parameters set, press "RUN/STOP" key, and wait for about 3sec before running starts.

3.3 In a standard mode, click "SET" key so that the first figure of PROG area flickers, press + key or - key to select the required set number. According to the need, the customer may set properly the set number of PROG the required temperature and time so that the set may called for running next time.

Setting of upper deviation alarm

Good setting of upper deviation can protect the system from out-of-tolerance temperature control or lose control and must be put into use when the instrument works.

Example: If AL=3.0 when the product leaves the factory, this means the alarm temperature is(set temperature value +AL)°C.

Calibration of temperature control accuracy

5.1 The 0.1°C-graduation mercury thermometer(or digital thermometer with a resolution of 0.1°C) is placed in the working chamber of the product. The mercury temperature-sensing head of the thermometer should be in the geometrical center of active space in the working

chamber.

5.2 Any point within the scope of temperature control of the product is chosen when the measured temperature value is equal to the set value, keep it thermostatic for another hour and make sure the difference between the measured value from the mercury thermometer and that

shown in the temperature controller should be ≤±0.5°C.

Method of improving temperature control accuracy

6.1 After the product is used for some time, temperature control accuracy should be calibrated as described in 5.2. If the error is in excess of ±0.5°C, correction should be made by the following method:

6.2 Go in for parameter setting and look for character of " ".

After calculation by the following formula, revision is made on the basis of PK value set in the factory(Note:If one revision is inaccurate, it should be repeated till requirement is met).

Use of "independent temperature limit controller".

The independent temperature limit controller is an independent protection system. When the temperature controller malfunctions and causes the temperature to run out, when the temperature in the working room reaches the temperature limit set value of the independent temperature limit controller, the independent temperature limit controller will automatically cut off the heating and issue an alarm sound.

(As shown on the right) When the temperature in the working room is lower than the limit temperature After the set value, the protection system is eliminated and the meter resumes work.

Repeat this cycle until troubleshooting.

7.1 The temperature limit set value should be greater than or equal to

(SV + AL) + (10 ~ 15) °C

7.2 See Figure 4. Turn the blue (with arrow) knob to the required temperature limit.

Example: SV = 80 °C, AL = 10

Should be set to 100 °C.

4. Maintenance of the product and precautions

1. The equipment must be connected to a well-grounded electrical outlet! To ensure personal safety.

2. Using high temperature above 80 °C, observe the distance between the liquid level and bath along the mouth carefully, to prevent the thermal expansion of the bath oil during heating, to avoid overflow of the bath.

3. When the bath medium is water, please note that the use of temperature, to prevent freezing or boiling, causing temperature control are not accuracy.

4. When filling the bath medium, the type of bath medium that fill in the bath must the same (Note the liquid medium in working chamber, it must be based on different operating temperature, filling different bath medium.

5. Do not use flammable liquids! The damage of improper use of bath medium caused by their own responsibility!

6. Connect the rubber tube, the connection should be clamped with clamp to prevent fall off.

7. Under continuous operation, the area of the bath cover and the connection of the circulation pump will become very hot or cold, so be careful when touch these places to prevent burns or frostbite.

8. Please be careful when draining the hot baths medium! Check the bath medium temperature before draining (eg, you can open the device up-cover and cooled it for a period of time).

9. If the equipment work in low temperature for long time, evaporators and pipes will have the

phenomenon of icing, causing bath temperature control are not accuracy, at this time please turn off the compressor for heating defrosting the ice, and because of melting ice bath body will have water seepage.

10. After using, turn off the power switch of the cooling and the cycle controller, unplug the power cable plug, and unscrew the drain port then drainage and dry the cabinet (please pay attention to the bath medium temperature, be careful not to burn or frostbite).

Turn off the cooling power switch first, then turn off the power of cycle controller.

11. Before moving the equipment, do not forget to empty the bath medium,, the equipment shall not be oblique (not more than 30 °) or placement it inverted.
