temperatures as outlined in the relative standard. Users can set their own test
parameter as described below.
Start Image Capture Temperature
- Select the temperature at which the software
starts to record images. It is advisable to start recording at a temperature that is as
close as possible the first sample melt point as this will reduce the number of stored
images. Each stored image requires 2 Mb of disc space.
Test End Temperatures
- Set the maximum temperature the furnace will reach
during the test. Range 20 °C - 1600 °C.
Note
: Avoid operating the furnace at
unnecessarily high temperature as this will reduce the life of the elements, furnace
insulation and tube end seals. Set the target temperature as low as possible (depending
on your application) to gain the most economical use of your furnace.
Temperature Ramp Rate
- This is the rate of rise in temperature during the test.
Range 3 ° - 10 °C.
Note
: Avoid operating the furnace at unnecessarily fast ramp rates
as they may cause premature failure of the work tube. Set the controller ramp rate as
slow as possible (depending on your application) to gain the most economical use from
your furnace. The default setting is 7 °C/ minute.
Image Capture Interval
- Set temperature rate at which the software will record and
store an images i.e. If set at 5 °C an image will be captured every 5 °C throughout the
test. The maximum capture interval for automatic analysis should be no more than 5
°C/ minute. If a higher number than this is selected the software will prompt that
automatic analysis is not possible above this capture interval.
Range - 1 °C - 10 °C. Only whole numbers can be used, the smallest number that can
be entered is 1, the largest is 20. Each stored image requiring 2 Mb of disc space so it is
advisable to use large temperature intervals whenever possible.
Standby Temperature
- Set the temperature the furnace will maintain before and
after a test. Range 20 °C - 1600 °C.
Backlight Off Temperature
- Set the temperature at which the back lighting will be
switched off. After approximately 700 °C the radiant light from the elements will be
sufficient to light the chamber. Range 0 °C - 1000 °C
Save
- Once the settings have been adjusted to suit the test application, clicking the
save button will save the selected temperatures.
Note
: The Eurotherm temperature
controller is updated by the software and always holds the latest values.
