Installation

1 The fluidised bath obtains its power and control through the TC-8D
controller. The Fludised bath has therefore to be connected through
the TC-8D to the mains or line supply.
If the fluidised bath has had a plug connected to the lead this needs
to be removed. Also remove the Twist lock plug from the rear of the
TC-8D. Connect the mains lead from the fluidised bath to this plug.
The connections to the plug are as follows:
Line
LIVE
NEUTRAL
GROUND Yellow/Green
Plug the twist lock plug back into the socket on the TC-8D.
2 Plug the thermocouple into the back of the TC-8D.
3 Remove the packing bar from the thermostat sheath on the fluidised
bath, see the booklet for the bath. It is held in with a nut and olive,
a new olive is supplied with the TC-8D. Fit the new olive, as
appropriate, to the thermocouple and push the thermocouple fully
into the thermostat sheath. Tighten the nut so that the olive holds the
thermocouple firmly but do not over tighten.
4 TC-8Ds prior to Serial Number/3:
Ensure that the voltage selector switch, on the back of the TC-8D, is
set to the correct voltage.
TC-8Ds with a Serial No/3 on:
There is no voltage selector switch as these units will accept any
voltage between 85 V and 250 V.
5 Before connecting the mains supply check the voltage with that
marked on the rating plate. Connect the mains cable on the TC-8D
to a suitable supply as follows:
CONNECTIONS
Live
Neutral
Earth
The rating plate is on the rear of the unit.
6 Set the energy regulator on the fluidised bath to 10.
7 Switch all the fluidised bath heaters on, as the TC-8D will control the
temperature by controlling the power input.
