Installation and Operation Manual This instruction manual explains the basic operation of the Process Technology inline solvent or gas heater. We recommend reading this manual carefully prior to operating the heater to help ensure proper use of the equipment .
RELATED DOCUMENTS The following documents are to be used in conjunction with this manual: ANSI/NFPA70 – National Electric Code , latest edition. To be used in conjunction with electrical service, wire sizing, routing and protection. SEMI S2 – Semiconductor Equipment Safety Guidelines, latest edition. To be used in conjunction with safe operation, access and decommissioning procedures.
Introduction Section 1: Process Technology’s SH In-Line Heater is designed to provide energy-efficient, safe heating of solvents and non- flammable gasses (such as nitrogen). Wetted surfaces of the heater are constructed of chemically milled (etched) 316 stainless steel. The heater is a compact, completely welded, insulated, pressure resistant vessel. It is designed for use in either Single Pass or Multi-Pass Flow applications.
SH inline heater system model number designation: Model / Part numbers are descriptive and usually follow this format. Example: SHV = SH In-Line Heater Size (Output wattage represented as 100 watts) Supply voltage V120 - 120 VAC V208 - 208 VAC Phase: 1 = Single, 3 = Three Plumbing Connection (represented as 1/100 inch) SN50 = 1/2"...

SAFETY NETWORK: The SH inline heater is protected from accidental damage or unsafe operating conditions with a network of safety interlocks. The safety interlocks will disengage power to the heaters until power is manually restored at the control. The safety interlocks offered on the SH inline heater are listed below.
Pre-Installation: Section 2: Note: Before beginning installation of the SH inline heater system, carefully read this entire section. Space Requirements: The standard dimensions of the various models are shown in Table 2 (see appendix for custom made units). Allow additional space on all sides of the unit for the control ventilation and service access. Dimensions Width Depth...
Plumbing Connections: Process Line Connections: Remove the protective plastic caps from inlet and outlet plumbing on the heater. Locate the inlet and make the required connection to the customer supplied fitting. (Do not reverse). Tighten the connection as required. Take care not to over-tighten. Repeating the above procedure for the outlet plumbing.
Temperature Controller: Section 4: Figure 2: Temperature Controller and Control Panel. The SH inline heater system incorporates a self-tuning, PID microprocessor based, digital temperature controller with a set high temperature alarm. The PID feature enhances the controller's ability to reach and maintain a constant process temperature. The self- tuning feature enables the controller to measure the process characteristics and indicate desired values, which can be displayed on LED displays.
Figure 3: E5CN Temperature Controller. DISPLAY FEATURES: No. 1 display (PV): Shows the process value (outlet temperature), modes and parameter symbols. No. 2 display (SV): Shows set points, parameter operation read value, or the variable input value. Level key: Switches the controller between auto and manual operation. Mode key: Press this key to change parameters within a setting level.
OPERATIONS for E5CN: Operation Indicators: ALM1: Illuminates when the alarm 1 setting is ON (tripped) (120°C). ALM2: Illuminates when the alarm 2 setting is ON (tripped) (110°C). ALM3: Not available on this controller. Not available on this controller. OUT1: Illuminates when the control output 1 is ON. OUT2: Illuminates when control output 2 is ON (Not used).
OPERATIONS for E5CN (Continued): Using the keys: This section describes the basic functions of the front panel keys. Level Key: Press this key to move between setting levels. The setting level is selected in the following order: operation level: adjustment level, initial setting level, communications setting level. Mode Key: Press this key to change parameters within a setting level.
OPERATIONS for E5CN (Continued): Mode Parameter Settings: The Omron E5CN temperature controller has been programmed prior to shipment, so no additional programming is normally necessary. The table below shows the various controller settings for this unit when properly configured to operate the TYTAN inline heater.

OPERATIONS for E5CN (Continued): Changing Primary Set Point: 1. The process Set Point can be changed in the normal display mode. 2. Press the up and down arrow keys to select the desired setting. After changing the process set point (SP-0) on the Omron controller, you must manually adjust the SP2 setting on the Future Design over-temperature control.
OPERATIONS for E5CN (Continued): PID Tuning: The Omron E5CN temperature controller incorporates the capability of automatically tuning the PID parameters (Auto- Tuning) to fit the characteristics of the process. The optimum PID parameters are automatically set by forcibly changing the Manipulated Variable (MV) to calculate the characteristics (limit cycle method) of the control target.
OPERATIONS for SLC: Safety Limit Controller (SLC) Model FDC-L91: This over-temperature controller is located inside the electrical portion of the SH heater. It uses a separate temperature sensor to monitor the temperature on the surface of the heating elements. This controller has two discreet set points: SP2: This is the over-temperature cutoff setting, which is set for 135°F (57°C).
Operation Section 5: System Start-Up: After completing installation, the following calibrations must be performed before operating the heater. Check the switch positions on the control interface (if supplied). Caution: All switches should be in the off position. Turn on process gas/liquid at its supply source. Engage electrical supply at customer's source.
To protect the safety of Process Technology’s workers and any others that may come in contact with this equipment in the course of transport, evaluation, and repair, Process Technology requires that these practices be followed in returning the equipment to the factory: Rinse the equipment until it is free of any chemical residues and drain any fluid from elements and piping.
Information Process Technology will endeavor to furnish such advise as it may be able to supply with reference to the use by buyer or any material purchased, but Process Technology makes no guarantees and assumes no obligation or liability for advice given verbally or in print or the results obtained.
