Caution on Installation Caution on Installation Pay special attention to keep safety of human body during installation and transportation of the unit. This product is heavy. It should be handled by two or more workers at the time of installation and transfer. Only the trained person with knowledge and experience can perform the possibly dangerous work associated with installation, transportation and maintenance.
Caution on Installation 3.2 Installation If the air inlet of Thermo-con and the outlet opening is not enough, the performance and product life might be degraded due to a decline of air flow. Install Thermo-con following condition. At the same time, when ambient temperature is in excess of 35 C, ventilate and exhaust air to prevent the ambient temperature from rising.
Caution on Installation 3.3 Mounting Thermo-con is preferably mounted as follows. A fixing foot is prepared for the thermo-con (accessory). Mount it on the thermo-con body before use. Remove the 2pcs of screws on the front and back of the thermo-con respectively, and mount the attached foot.
Caution on Installation 3.4 Piping Increase the flow rate of the recirculating fluid to maintain the temperature stability. Therefore, shorten the distance with heat load, and set it up so that the length of piping may shorten. The tube for piping should be as thicker as possible. Reduce the use of elbow fitting or tube bends as this increase the resistance to flow and as such causes a flow reduction.

Unit Overview 4.5 Operating Principles The unit is operated as explained below. 4.5.1 Construction and Principle of Thermo Module This unit controls the temperature of constant temperature recirculating fluid with a thermo-module (thermoelectric thermal element). A thermo module (electronic cooling and heating element) is a unit consisting of multiple semiconductor elements.
Unit Overview 4.5.2 Construction of temperature controlling device A thermo-module is installed in a heat exchanger. Radiating water flows on one side of the thermo module, and recirculating fluid flows on the other side of the thermo-module. DC output transmitted from a switching power supply is connected to the thermo module, and a controller controls the DC output from the switching power supply based on the signal sent from the temperature sensor that is mounted on the outlet of the heat exchanger, achieving an accurate control of the constant temperature recirculating fluid.
Unit Overview 4.6 Functions 4.6.1 Auto tuning This is a function to set value necessary for control such as PID (proportional band, integral time, derivative time and ratio of cooling/ heating gain) automatically. 4.6.2 Offset function This is a function to control temperature sliding it by offset value from set point temperature. The range of offset is -9.99 to 9.99 °C.
Unit Overview 4.7 Auto tuning function Although a PID factor is set at the time of shipment, if controlled temp. fluctuates constantly, perform auto tuning. Controller calculates optimum control PID and Co n t r o l Op e r a t i o n set automatically.

Preparation for Operation 7.2 Wiring 7.2.1 Power supply The power supply shall be connected with attached power supply cable. Confirm the power supply at factory has enough capacity and the voltage is within specified value beforehand (with reference to electrical specifications of the power supply). This unit is provided with the power supply cable.
Preparation for Operation 7.3 Supply of recirculating fluid The recirculating fluid is supplied as described below. Confirm the power switch is turned off. Take off the reservoir cap of the Thermo-con. Supply recirculating fluid for the reservoir. The inlet of the reservoir is not so large and spillage of recirculating fluid needs to be cared.
Preparation for Operation 7.4 Check・Repair The following checks shall be performed before operation. 7.4.1 Daily check Indication of display panel: Check temperature condition and confirm whether or not the alarm occurs. Check the recirculating fluid is not contaminated. Once the fluid is contaminated, it may degrade the performance or shorten the life time.
Preparation for Operation The volume of fluorinate fluid varies depending on the temperature. When the volume of the recirculating fluid expands (contracts) due to the temperature rise or decrease, inside of the tank will be pressurized (depressurized), leading to a deformation of the tank or leakage. When the set temperature is largely changed (for several tens of degree) while the fluorinated fluid is used, loosen the tank lid in the middle of the change to return the pressure in the tank to the atmospheric pressure..
