5.1 WITH IVP PID HEATER CONTROL
5. FURNACE CONTROL
1. The controller has four navigation buttons, shown in Figure 14. They are used to select
and change all controller parameters including setting the thermocouple type, starting and
stopping furnace heating, and changing the furnace target temperature.
2.
Before using the PID heater controller for the first time, verify that the thermocouple setting
is set to Type K on the controller.
3. Plug the controller into to a 100-120 VAC source (wall outlet or outlet strip) and switch power
on from underneath the display.
4. Since a thermocouple is not yet plugged in, the display will read “
no Cont
”.
5. Press and hold down the
SET
button for 5 seconds.
6. The display should show “
CnPt
”, the correct setting for a Type K thermocouple. If it does,
then press the
SET
button.
7. If the controller shows a
CnPt
value other than that shown in Figure 15, press the
UP
or
DOWN ARROW
until it does. Then press the
SET
button to save the setting.
8.
Once the thermocouple setting is verified, turn off the controller.
9. Plug the furnace’s power cord into the controller. Use a NEMA 5-20R to IEC C20 adapter
(P1012728) to connect the furnace power plug to the PID heater connector.
10. Plug the furnace’s thermocouple into the controller (Figure 16, next page).
Figure 15 - Verify the Type K thermocouple setting
Follow the instructions below if you have the IVP Furnace and PID Heater Controller Kit with
mounting hardware (P1012730), or if you are using the PID heater controller separately (P107361).
