4.2 Schema elettrico

WARNING: Ensure all power is disconnected before performing any wiring. Incorrect wiring can lead to equipment damage or personal injury. If you are unsure, consult a qualified electrician.

Refer to the wiring diagrams below for proper connection of the PID controller, SSR, and thermocouple. The controller requires AC 100-240V power supply.

Figure 4.3: Back panel of the PID controller showing terminal assignments for power (1, 2), SSR output (3, 4), alarm output (5, 6), and thermocouple input (11, 12).

Figura 4.4: Esample physical wiring diagram for connecting the SSR 40DA to the PID controller and a heating element. Terminals 1 and 2 on the SSR connect to the AC load (heater), and terminals 3 and 4 connect to the DC control output (3-32VDC) from the PID controller.

Note di cablaggio:

• Connect the K-Type Thermocouple to terminals 11 and 12. Ensure correct polarity (positive to 12, negative to 11).
• Connect the main AC power supply (100-240V) to terminals 1 and 2 of the PID controller.
• Connect the SSR control output from the PID controller (terminals 3 and 4) to the input terminals (3-32VDC) of the SSR 40DA.
• Connect the AC load (e.g., heater) to the output terminals (24-380VAC) of the SSR 40DA.
• The alarm output (terminals 5 and 6) can be connected to an external alarm device if required.

5. Istruzioni per l'uso

5.1 Pannello di controllo e visualizzazione

The front panel of the PID controller features a digital display and control buttons:

Figure 5.1: Front panel layout of the SINOTIMER PID Temperature Controller, indicating PV/SV displays, control indicators, and function keys.

• Visualizzazione PV (valore di processo): Shows the current measured temperature.
• Visualizzazione SV (valore impostato): Shows the target temperature or parameter setting value.
• Indicatore OUT: Lights up when the control output (to SSR) is ON.
• Indicatore AT: Blinks when the self-tuning function is active.
• AL1 Indicator: Lights up when the alarm output is ON.
• Tasto MODALITÀ: Used to enter parameter settings and navigate between modes. Press and hold to store set values.
• Shift Key (<): Used for digit shifting during value adjustment.
• Decrease Key (↓): Used to decrease values.
• Increase Key (↑): Used to increase values.

5.2 Impostazione della temperatura target (SV)

1. In normal operation mode, the upper display shows PV (current temperature) and the lower display shows SV (target temperature).
2. Utilizzare il Increase (↑) E Decrease (↓) keys to adjust the SV to your desired temperature.
3. Utilizzare il Shift (<) key to move the cursor between digits for faster adjustment.
4. The new SV will be automatically saved after a few seconds of inactivity or by pressing the MODALITÀ chiave.

5.3 Impostazioni avanzate dei parametri

To access advanced settings (e.g., PID parameters, alarm settings, input type, unit selection), press and hold the MODALITÀ key for several seconds. Use the MODALITÀ key to cycle through parameters, and the Shift (<), Increase (↑), E Decrease (↓) keys to adjust values. Refer to the detailed parameter list in the full product manual for specific functions and ranges.

6. Manutenzione

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your PID temperature controller kit.

• Pulizia: Periodically clean the controller's front panel with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Ispezione: Regularly check all wiring connections for tightness and signs of wear or damage. Ensure the thermocouple is securely in place and free from corrosion.
• Radiatore: Verify that the heat sink on the SSR is free from dust and debris to ensure efficient heat dissipation.
• Ambiente: Ensure the controller is operated within its specified environmental conditions (temperature, humidity) to prevent malfunction.
