Safety information General safety information The PTT Peltier Thermostating Unit cools or heats tempering liquids and sample liquids. Hazards arise from this due to high or low temperatures, fire and the general hazards due to the application of electri- cal energy.
After unpacking, first check the unit and accessories for any transport damage. If the de- vice is found to be damaged, the haulage or postal company must be immediately in- formed so that verification can take place. In this connection please inform the LAUDA Service Centre or an authorised LAUDA representative.
90 °C. Temperature display and control Measurements and setting values as well as operating statuses are displayed on the front of the PTT using a 3-figure 7-segment display . The entry of the set value and other settings occurs using the button/rotary function of the control knob.
Operating and functional controls All operating and functional controls on the PTT are situated at the front. A 3-figure 7-segment display indicates the actual and set-point temperatures, the stirrer speed and error messages. Three LEDs positioned close to the display specify the figures shown in the display. Indicators located be- low the display represent the operating statuses.
Interfaces and sockets The PTT is equipped as standard with the following interfaces and sockets: "Power" socket for connection to an external power supply unit "Sensor" socket for connection to an external Pt100 measurement probe "Command" socket is actually not active...
Installation and operation Installation 1. Site the Peltier unit on a firm, uncluttered surface. Maintain at least 6 centimetres spacing on all sides (air access). 2. With the switch set to the "0" position, connect the power supply unit to the electrical mains network (100...240 V) and connect the plug securely to the Peltier device ("Power").

8. The PTT is put into operation by actuating the switch ("On" = I). In the default setting the device tempers the liquid to 25°C. On starting, the device automatically carries out a self-test. All indicators on the front display are activated for 2 seconds for checking purposes.

9. Setting the speed of the magnetic stirrer occurs by briefly pressing the control knob: As long as the LED "" (4) is lit, the speed can be adjusted by turning the knob (steps 1...9). Stirrer activity is indicated by the flashing of the control knob. The magnetic stirrer is switched off by pressing the control knob again (step 0).
Operation The PTT Peltier Thermostating Unit can be easily operated due to the intuitive one-knob operation and clear visual feedback. Standard situation (after switch-on and in operation) Display corresponds to ACTUAL temperature Flashes during stirrer operation Heating phase / Cooling phase...
("Off" = O). Standby mode The PTT can be put into a standby mode. To do this the control knob is held pressed for at least 3 se- conds. In this way all electrical components (fans, magnetic stirrer, power electronics for the thermostating unit) are deactivated.
