Do not modify the device� 1 Introduction The IHN010 induction heater is designed for heating rolling bearings and other ferritic, circular workpieces� The heat causes the workpiece to expand, which eliminates the need to use force during installation� A 90°C (194°F) temperature difference between the bearing and shaft is sufficient to enable easy installation�...
Distinguishing Feature The distinguishing feature of the IHN010 induction heater is the fact that the workpiece can only be placed on the cone-shaped workpiece support for heating� The energy transfer is contact-free, and is generated via the medium-frequency coil situated be- low�...
Connect the mains plug to a suitable power supply� › The rolling bearing to be heated is placed horizontally in the centre of the IHN010 induction heater’s step-shaped support cone� › If you are going to operate the device in TEMP MODE, connect the temperature probe with the helix cable to the left side of the device�...
B) The power display shows the selected power setting: Display Indication • 20% power •• 40% power ••• 60% power •••• 80% power ••••• 100% power Function of Buttons Button Function POWER Press to adjust the power in steps of 20%� The selected power is indicated on the power display� MODE Press to switch between TIME MODE and TEMP MODE�...
› When the selected temperature has been reached, the heater demagnetises the workpiece, switches off, and generates an acoustic signal for 10 seconds or until START/STOP is pressed� › Press START/STOP to stop the heater� › Always wear protective gloves and other appropriate protective equipment when removing the hot workpiece� NB: Risk of burning�...
According to the eddy current principle, the work piece is automatically demagnetised at the end of the heating cycle� Power Level Selection When heating bearings with the IHN010, it is important that bearings with small internal clearance or slight preload are heated slowly� Slow heating ensures that the bearing expands slowly, thereby preventing damage to the bearing� In addition, it is possible that the ferrite cage and seals could be heated more quickly than the inner-ring, due to their low mass�...
If the bearings are sealed on one side only, they must be placed on the device with the seal facing upwards� In this arrangement, the power level of 100% can be selected� 5 Safety Features The IHN010 device is equipped with the following safety features: › Power switch�...
6 Electromagnetic Field and Personal Safety During the heating function, the IHN010 unit generates a maximum magnetic flux density of less than 5�7µT at a distance of half a meter away� The device is therefore within the range that applies to the household sector for induction cooktops�...
