TEMPERATURE CONTROLLER
N322T
OPERATING MANUAL - V1.7x A
The N322T is a 2-output digital electronic controller for heating and cooling
applications. It is available with NTC thermistor input sensor, Pt100, Pt1000 or
J/K/T type thermocouple. Sensor offset correction is provided. The 2 independent
outputs can be used as control or alarm.
The features of a particular model (input sensor type, sensor range, mains supply,
etc) are identified by the label placed on the controller body.
SPECIFICATIONS
INPUT SENSOR: The input sensor type can be chosen form the options below
(specified when placing the order):
NTC Thermistor, 10 kΩ @ 25 °C; range: –50 to 120 °C (-58 to 248 °F);
Accuracy: 0,6 °C (1,1 °F), with original sensor;
Sensor interchangeability: 0,75 °C (1,35 °F). This error can be compensated by
the offset parameter in the controller.
Pt100 (α= 0,00385); Range: –50 to 300 °C (-58 to 572 °F);
Accuracy: 0,7 °C (1.3 °F); IEC-751.
Pt1000 (α= 0,00385); Range: –200 to 530 °C (-328 to 986 °F);
Accuracy: 0,7 °C (1.3° F);
J, K or T thermocouple (IEC-584):
• Type J: Range: 0 to 600 ºC (32 to 1112 ºF); Accuracy: 3 ºC (5.4 ºF);
• Type K: Range: -50 to 1000 ºC (-58 to 1832 ºF); Accuracy: 3 ºC (5.4 ºF);
• Type T: Range: -50 to 400 ºC (-58 to 752 ºF); Accuracy: 3 ºC (5.4 ºF);
Note: In the controller with NTC input, a 3 m-sensor cable is bundled with the
instrument. The cable can be extended up to 200 m.

ELECTRICAL WIRING
Figure 1 below shows the controller connections to sensor, mains and outputs.
Figure 1 – N322T terminals
Pt100 with 3 conductors: Terminals 11, 12 and 13 must have the same wire
resistance for proper cable length compensation. For 2 wire Pt100, short circuit
terminals 11 and 13.
It is important to follow the recommendations below:
• Signal wires should be installed in grounded conduits and away from power
or contactor wires.
• The instrument should have its own power supply wires that should not be
shared with electrical motors, coils, contactors, etc.
• Installing RC filters (47 R and 100 nF, series combination) is strongly
recommended at contactor coils or any other inductors.
OPERATION
The controller requires the internal parameters to be configured according to the
intended use for the instrument. The parameters are organized in 4 groups or
levels:
Level Function
0 Temperature measurement
1 Setpoint Adjustment
2 Configuration
3 Calibration
Upon power-up, the N322T display shows for 1 second its firmware version. This
information is useful when consulting the factory.
Then, the temperature measured by the sensor is shown on the display. This is
the parameter level 0 (temperature measurement level).
To access level 1, press for 1 second until the "SP" message shows up. To
go back to level 0, press once more.
To access level 2 of paramenters, press for 2 seconds until the "uNT"
message is shown. Release the key to remain in this level. Each new
pressing on the key will advance to the next parameter in the level. At the end
of the level, the controller returns to the first level (0).
Use the and keys to alter a parameter value.
Notes: 1 A parameter configuration is saved when the
advance to the next parameter in the cycle. The configuration is
stored in a non-volatile memory, retaining its value when the
controller is de-energized.
2 If no keyboard activity is detected for over 20 seconds, the
controller saves the current parameter value and returns to the
measurement level.
Level 1 –Setpoint Adjustment
In this level only the Setpoint (SP1 and SP2) parameters are available,
alternating the names with their respective values. Adjust the desired temperature
for each setpoint clicking on the
Temperature adjustment for control. SP value is limited to the
SP
values programmed in SPL and SPk in the programming level.
