alloy used for the heating conductor. The actual temperature is determined by measuring the voltage and current. The PIREG-D operates as a proportional control unit that independently determines the P-factor (the control amplification) for the controlled system of a process during calibration. The controlled system consists of a sealing transformer and a heating conductor.

3.1.5. Calibration mode: - New calibration: If the calibration mode “new-calibration“ is chosen, the PIREG-D performs a calibration after every power-on or the signal “Reset”. The calibration values are not saved. Calibration can also be started in the Off- or error state with the signal “Calibration Start”. - Save calibration: Calibration is only started with the signal “Calibration Start”.

3.2.4. Determining the reference resistance: ( 5.7.2.) The reference resistance of the heating conductor (Rref) is determined in this step. A reference temperature of 0...50 °C must be set in the controller for calibration. During calibration, the heating conductor must be at the reference temperature to ensure that regulation is exact.

- manual operation: The actual temperature of the heating conductor is reported back as target value to the . The next temperature step is switched to with the rising edge of the “Start” signal. After the heating PIREG-D conductor has reached a uniform temperature the temperature set as the target value is taken over as the actual temperature of the heating conductor with the falling edge of the “Start”...

the PIREG-D as target value or directly as measured value of the TM6 thermometer. The singlepoint temperature coefficient correction is carried out outside the standard calibration and is started from the Off- state. Single-point temperature coefficient correction has an Off and an On state. After singlepoint temperature coefficient correction was started, the PIREG-D is in the Off-state.
options from the Working menu ( 5.2.). Single-point temperature coefficient correction can be started from the Calibration selection menu of the display unit of the PIREG-D when in the Off-state ( 5.2.5.). 3.4. On-State In the On-state, the PIREG-D controls the temperature of the heating conductor in accordance with the target value.
3.8. Relay functions The same functions can be set independently for each of the message- and the two control relay outputs. 3.8.1. Temperature function: The relay is actuated if the actual temperature is in the “Temperature ok” range. A delay during which the actual temperature has stabilized can be set with the stabilization time. The holding function is an additional function during which the relay remains activated after the sealing cycle and until start of the following sealing cycle.

3.9.7. Temperature unit: With the PIREG-D display unit the temperature values can be indicated in [°C] or [°F] ( 5.8.). The temperature unit is only used for display of the temperature values. The display unit continues to operate internally with the unit [°C] even when [°F] is displayed which results in temperature leaps of 2 °F when the unit [°F] is set as temperature value.

If standard TC correction via eight points was selected the correction process is also controlled by the Start inputs for manual operation. The single-point TC correction is also controlled by the Start inputs. 4.3.2. Preheat inputs: The PIREG has two Preheat inputs: one Preheat input (X22) which is controlled by an external voltage, and the Preheat contact input (X19) which is controlled when the input is connected to AGND (X2) for example with a switch.

5.10. Information menu 6. Commissioning Firstly, check that the stated voltage of the PIREG-D power line matches the power line voltage being used, and that the transformer primary current matches the controller's load current capability. 6.1. Configuring the settings The following settings must be made in the display unit of the PIREG-D after switching on but before commissioning.
7. The heating conductor The heating conductor is an important component of the control circuit because it functions both as a temperature sensor and heating element at the same time. Due to the complexity and variety involved, the influence of heating conductor geometry is not discussed here. However, some issues concerning physical and electrical properties will be addressed.

10. Application note 10.1. Application instructions The following application instructions are available for the PIREG-D controller which simplify operation of the PIREG-D Temperature coefficient correction: Operation of the temperature coefficient correction which is an additional calibration component of the PIREG-D ( 3.2.9.).
