Recommended Guidelines 1. Place the Thermocouple (TC) as near as possible to the component being worked on. Fix the TC with Kapton Tape Protection Thermocouple (TC) 2. If there are any sensitive components, use a Thermocouple as protection. You can select the protection temperature in the Thermocouples menu. If the selected tempertare is reached, the Heater Unit will stop the process and a warning message will be shown.
