Introduction

TC110 Series water temperature control units are reliable, accurate, and easy-to-use
process temperature control units. They are self-contained, portable, and shipped ready to
use.
The TC110 Series water temperature control unit is designed to circulate water through your
process and to precisely, automatically, and reliably maintain it at a specified temperature.
Standard unit operating range is from 32°F (0°C) to 250°F (121°C). The unit is suited for use
with city water, water from portable or central chillers or towers, or well water.
These units are designed for rapid recirculation of a relatively small amount of water to
provide close and uniform temperature relation between To Process and From Process lines.
This performance, of course, depends on the configuration of your process and any
restrictions within the mold. The recirculation, combined with the large immersion heater
and cooling capability, gives fast and accurate response to bring the water up to
temperature or to changes in the settings when needed.
The TC110 Series water temperature control unit is a self-contained system consisting of a
centrifugal pump, electric immersion heater, cool/vent solenoid valve, and electrical control,
including a PID microprocessor controller and thermocouple. It is designed for use in
process temperature control applications using water or a water/glycol mix. Any other use
or fluid is prohibited.
Some standard safety devices include a mechanical over temperature safety thermostat, a
pressure relief valve, motor overload protection, a low pressure cutout switch and branch
fusing.
A properly installed, operated, and maintained TC110 Series system provides years of
reliable operation. Please read and follow the instructions in this manual to get the most
satisfaction from your TC110 Series system.
