Description
Microprocessor-Based Control
Selectable self-tuning feature sets best control parameters for the thermal process
PID control (proportional, integral, derivative) prevents overshoot
Main power ON/OFF switch on control panel
Controlled heat-up rate eliminates thermal shock to materials
Quick heat-up and cool-down rates
Adjustable high-limit overtemperature protection
Simultaneous LED display of actual temperature vs. setpoint
Can be configured to display temperature in either °C or °F
Construction
Unique double wall minimizes exterior surface temperatures for operator safety and energy efficiency
Side-hinge door for convenient operation and full chamber access
Long-life Type K thermocouple
Air vent (1″ dia., top) and air inlet (0.375″ dia., rear) for inert atmosphere exchange; will experience some leakage at door
Removable and replaceable Moldatherm hearth plate supports load and prevents damage due to spillage
Energy-efficient Moldatherm insulation with embedded heating elements
Safety door switch to interrupt power to heating element when door is opened; protects heating element and minimizes exposure to end-user
Digital, Single-Setpoint Controller
Single segment, single setpoint, one ramp to setpoint
Digital Single-Program, Multiple-Segment Programmable Controller
Single program with multiple segments for ramp (up and down) and dwell (timed hold) temperature control
Ordering Information:
Optional RS485 Digital Communications Port allows controller to be connected to a PC for remote monitoring and control of the furnace. Up to 30 units can be connected to one PC.
Includes
10′ power cord except 1.5 cu. ft. models which require customer-supplied power cord or hardwiring.
