7. THE MAGNETIC TEMPERATURE SENSOR
•
2 temperature sensors come with the heater and
can be reordered as spare part.
•
The magnetic temperature sensor must always be
used when heating in "temperature mode"
•
The sensor can be used as a tool for temperature control whilst
heating in "time mode"
•
The sensor is suitable for a maximum temperature of 240ºC (464°F).
•
In the event of temperatures exceeding 240ºC (464°F), the connection between the
magnet and the sensor is interrupted. The heater switches off automatically when
the sensor does not detect a temperature increase.
•
Special clamp sensors are available for non-magnetic workpieces.
•
Make sure that the sensor and workpiece surfaces are clean.
•
Always place sensor T1 on a flat area as close as possible to the bore. Connect the sensor by
inserting the plug into the socket (in the casing). Make sure that the – and + of the plug correspond
to that of the socket. If desired, a second sensor, T2, can be used for additional control or
monitoring of a temperature difference, ΔT, between 2 points on the workpiece.
•
Correct sensor positions for heating with double temperature measurement and ΔT
monitoring. T1 (main temperature) on the bore. T2 on the outer ring.
NOTE!
•
Handle the sensor with care! It is a vulnerable part of the heater. After use, place the sensor on
the side of a vertical pole. Remove the sensor from the workpiece at the plastic part. Do not
pull the cable.
