    WARNING Residual voltage. Wait one minute after disconnecting before opening enclosure. WARNING When the JH1500 induction heater is activated, there is a magnetic field from the induction head in its immediate vicinity. WARNING The JH1500 induction heater can interfere with pulse generators.
  • Page 11: The Placing Of The Safety Sign

    A sensor detects the water flow and trips the induction heater if the flow is blocked. The JH1500 must be connected to earth. It has an inbuilt residual current breaker to protect the user in case of a ground fault. It also has an automatic fuse, which trips if the current exceeds 32 A (for JH1500‑400V) or...
  • Page 12: Installation

    Induction heater JH1500 INSTALLATION The JH1500 is inspected and tested before it leaves the factory to warrant uniform quality and the greatest possible reliability. Below follows a description of the installation and general tips and instructions. WARNING! Do not place the induction heater on uneven or unstable surfaces.
  • Page 13: Filling The Water Tank

    Induction heater JH1500 INSTALLATION Filling the water tank The JH1500 is delivered with a filled water tank, but if the tank needs to be filled manually at some point, follow the instructions below. Fill the water tank with a mixture of decalcified water and 30 % propylene glycol.
  • Page 14: Connection To The Electric Supply

    • The electric supply must be protected by a 32 A (400 V) or 63 A (200 V) fuse when using maximum power (step 5). The JH1500 is connected to the electric mains as follows: • Plug the JH1500 into a wall socket. NOTE! The JH1500‑200 V is delivered without a plug.
  • Page 15: Description

    Induction heater JH1500 DESCRIPTION The machine comprises: 1. cooler section 2. electrical section 3. hose packet with inductor During heating, a powerful magnetic field is concentrated in the inductor. The magnetic field alternates direction and induces eddy currents in the material, which gives rise to heat.
  • Page 16: Cooler Section

    Induction heater JH1500 DESCRIPTION Cooler section The cooler section consists of a: 1. cooling water tank 2. water pump 3. connection box 4. condenser 5. condenser fan...
  • Page 17: Electrical Section

    Induction heater JH1500 DESCRIPTION Electrical section The electrical section has three main functions, namely supplying current to: the hose packet, electronic components and the cooling section. The electrical section comprises: 1. control panel 2. main power switch 3. residual current breaker 4.
  • Page 18: Main Power Switch

    Induction heater JH1500 DESCRIPTION Main power switch When the main power switch is turned on, the machine is connected to the electrical supply. Residual current breaker The machine is equipped with a residual current breaker, which trips in the event of an earth fault.

    Induction heater JH1500 DESCRIPTION Hose packet The hose packet consists of: 1. connection block 2. handheld transformer with hose kit 3. operating button 4. inductor Connection block The connection block is mounted below the electrical section, its upper section protrudes into the electrical section.
  • Page 22: Inductor

    Induction heater JH1500 DESCRIPTION Inductor During use, the inductor is supplied with a voltage and an alternating magnetic field is generated by the field power amplifier at the inductor's tip. The cooling water circulates through the inductor.
  • Page 23: Usage

    Induction heater JH1500 USAGE General information about induction Induction heaters work with low voltages and high currents in order to create a magnetic field. The magnetic field is concentrated to the field amplifier. When the tip is placed against iron or another magnetic material, the magnetic field is short‑circuited and heat is...
  • Page 24: Heating

    Induction heater JH1500 USAGE Heating Warning! The user must remove metal objects such as watches, rings and suchlike before use. Danger of serious personal injury. Warning! Take care that there is good ventilation so as to avoid breathing in the gases that are formed during heating.
  • Page 25: After Completed Work

    Induction heater JH1500 USAGE Note! Never press the inductor against the object, since this would shorten the inductor's service life more quickly than necessary. 4. Release the operating button. 5. Lift the inductor out of the way. After completed work 1.
