Note: Always begin with the dial set to Z, the SET/RAMP/RESET switch set to RESET, and
the UP/HOLD/DOWN switch set to HOLD.
Switch on the MS2WFP power supply and the water pump, and check for leaks and water flow.
The flow switch in the water system is activated when the pump is turned on. If the water flow
is not established due to lack of water or a restriction in the pipework, then the current to the
furnace will be interrupted and no heating will occur. A warning beep will sound if the water
pump is switched on but no flow is detected. The water pump should be switched off when the
sample reaches room temperature after a measurement run.
To set the furnace to a pre-determined temperature, select the temperature on the dial and
switch to SET.
To use the ramp facility, set the desired ramp rate on the dial where rate of temperature increase
is approximately 5 C/minute per turn.
o
Select RAMP and UP, and commence taking readings until the maximum desired temperature is
reached.
