Temperature Control Functions in General

The DynaControl microprocessor-based proportional temperature control in the ASU performs a
number of functions that help to maintain adhesive setpoints in all temperature zones of the DY-
NAMELT system. It maintains permanent system values such as the maximum temperature setpoint.
It enables the user to program temperature settings and heater on/off sequencing that are appropriate
to a specific application. It displays all programmed values, and it includes self-diagnostic malfunc-
tion alerts and failure alarms. Note: Some DynaControl functions are direct temperature conversions
between degrees Celsius and Fahrenheit. Other parameters are independently selected values.

Defining DynaControl Temperature Control Terms

Adhesive Temperature Control Range
The temperature limits within which the ASU, hoses and applicators may be programmed and main-
tained.
Default Settings
The factory-set programmable system values that will be in effect if the user does not enter new val-
ues.
Error Indication Alarms
Controller alarms which indicate that the programmed over-temperature values have been exceeded
for one or more hopper, hose or head zones. Alarms may also indicate an open or short-circuited
sensor.
Main Power & Aux Power PCBs
The V6 Power Module and V6 Aux Power Module provide power to all the temperature zones in the
ASU's system. The standard unit's hopper, hoses and applicators are controlled by the Power Module.
Additional hoses and applicators are controlled by the Aux Power Module.
Mechanical High-Temperature Protection
A mechanical, redundant thermostat located on the hopper which turns OFF the system at 218C
(425F) [or 232C (450F) for optional high temperature units].
Microprocessor-based Proportional Temperature Control
The built-in control system that controls, monitors and displays all system temperatures.
