CONNECTION, INSTALLATION, MAINTENANCE, ADJUSTMENT, SERVICING AND OPERATION TO BE DONE BY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL ONLY. ENSURE THAT EQUIPMENT IS COMPLETELY AND PROPERLY GROUNDED BEFORE APPLYING SUPPLY POWER AND BEFORE EQUIPMENT OPERATION.
Equipment Safety Guidelines (Read and understand this manual before operating equipment.) CAUTION!! Turn power off at source before servicing equipment or attempting any interior maintenance. If the main power switch is ON, voltage may exist at the lamps even though the lamps are not lighted. A FATAL ELECTRICAL SHOCK COULD POSSIBLY RESULT! ...
Operating Instructions Temperature Controller Single or Double Ramp Operation (See Figure 1) Single Ramp Operation: The temperature ramps in a predetermined amount of time from ambient to a set point temperature and holds at that temperature for a required amount of time. Double Ramp Operation: The temperature ramps in a predetermined amount of time from ambient to the first set point temperature and holds at that temperature for a required amount of time, it then ramps in a predetermined amount of time to a second set point temperature and holds at that temperature for a required...

Setting the Temperature Controller Parameters (See Figure 2) Single Ramp 1. Turn power on. 2. Turn positioning beam on and position heater. 3. Set controller parameters 4. Hold the button for 1-2 seconds a. Set rp1 (ramp time) in minutes Press b.
Lamp Installation and Replacement Instructions Danger!! Turn power off at source before removing end covers and servicing lamps. A fatal electrical shock could possibly result. Precautions for Handling Quartz Infrared Lamps Do not handle infrared lamps with bare hands. Remove any contaminations with alcohol and a clean, soft cloth. Contaminations on quartz tubes cause the quartz to overheat, which may lead to premature lamp failure.

Heater Position Instructions Important: Precautions and Instructions General Instructions (Read All) The "Positioning Beam" (red dot) is an aid for proper placement of the heat sensor. The heat Sensor reads an area of 0.8 to 1.2" diameter depending on the heater's distance from the surface.

mirrors, door handles, interior materials, etc.) in the heating area must be masked or removed during the heating cycle. High temperature/reflective masking material approved for this type of application is required. When curing small areas, it is not recommended to use heat masking around the area except to cover heat sensitive materials.

When the timer and the heater lamps shut off, the cycle is complete and ready for the next repair. NOTE: These are procedures that give reliable results for most repairs. Unusual or complex repairs might need modified procedures. Contact BGK service for assistance.
Maintenance The AutoCure™5000 will require some basic maintenance when used on a regular basis. Failure to do so may degrade the performance of the unit. Disconnect main power at the source before performing any maintenance procedures. Pivot Points 1. Single head units have three (3) castle nut/spring combinations and two (2) shoulder bolts with Nylock nuts. If pivot points become loose, heater positioning will not be maintained.
Trouble Shooting Guide Heater Power Problems Problem Heater lamps come on immediately when disconnect is closed. Possible Cause and Corrective Action With power OFF, measure the resistance from the lamp wires to ground. The measurement should be more than 100 K ohms. If it is less than 100 K, check the lamp wiring and heater head for shorts to ground. Check for a bad firing circuit board or a shorted SCR by: exchanging the firing circuit board with one from a known good control.
Problem No output signal from temperature controller. Possible Cause and Corrective Action Check that the set point (bottom display) is higher than the process temperature (top display). Check the 0-5v input to the temperature controller at pins 9 & 10. If the 0-5v signal is not present, confirm that the Raytek pyrometer is functioning.
Check for loose connections on the heat sensor (pyrometer) wiring. While the heater is running at temperature, gently wiggle the pyrometer cable and have someone watch for sudden temperature changes. If this happens – replace the cable. Problem Positioning Beam does not work Possible Cause and Corrective Action Check that the power supply board is supplying approximately 3.25 vdc (TB 3).
Service Instructions Replacement of new Pyrometer Sensor 1. Open Cover for Raytek Sensor, loosen and remove wire from terminals shown below. 3. Undo wires from two wire nuts, as shown. 4. Loosen nut on pyrometer side, and remove wires from housing. 5.
Replacement of Pyrometer Controller 1. Open Housing and loosen 4 terminals to remove pyrometer. Loosen 4 terminals to remove connection to AutoCure Arm as shown below. 2. Open New Housing, and loosen 4 terminals as shown above to remove pyrometer. 3.
Assembly Notes: 6. WRAP COPPER TAPE 2-3 TURNS FOR LOOSE RUNNING FIT 7. APPLY THERMAL JOINT COMPUND USING APPLICATOR AND SPREAD ACROSS ENTIRE CIRCUMFERENCE 8. CENTER PYROMETER AND LASER TO THROUGH OLES WHILE ASSEMBLING PLATES 9. STRIP BACK 5/16” MINIMUM 10.
