CURVEX 4 PROTECTION - USING THE INSULATION BOX
The data logger itself may not exceed a temperature
of 60°C (140°F). Since the logger is used inside
high-temperature curing ovens, the CurveX 4 thermal
barrier system is used to protect it. The CurveX 4
thermal barrier box protects the data logger from
the high outside temperatures.
Either a single bracket or a heat absorber can be
used to increase the heat resistance. The heat
absorber contains material that absorbs the energy
that penetrates the box.
N.B.
Prior to run any oven temperature recording, it
is very important that both the insulation box and
the heat absorber temperatures are below 20°C
(68°F) before the system is sent through the oven.
Always refer to the insulation box datasheet for the
maximum time and temperature use.

Preparing for measurement
Step 1.
Make sure the box is at room temperature.
Step 2.
Place the CurveX 4 data logger, with the
probes already connected, inside the box.
Step 3.
lead the probe cables over the gasket and
edge of the box at the cable outlet point.
Step 4.
Start the logger.
Step 5.
Mount the cover on the box and make sure
the stainless steel edge slides a few
millimeters over the box on all sides. Also
check whether the cutout of the cable
outlet of the cover is facing the same cutout
in the box and whether the probe cables are
positioned properly.
Step 6.
Tighten the cover with the four latches and
check again whether the box is properly
closed on all sides.
The system is now ready to be sent through the
oven. Use the grip to hang the box, if necessary.
The isolation box has a ferrous steel plate on top,
which can be used for mounting the magnetic
probes while transporting the set.
