1 Unpacking And Initial Inspection Our Packing Department uses custom designed packaging to send out your unit, but as accidents can still happen in transit, you are advised, after unpacking the unit, to inspect it for any sign of shipping damage and confirm that your delivery is in accordance with the packing check list.
2 Before You Use The Equipment Please read the handbook and familiarise yourself with all warnings, hazards and safety information. Regularly inspect the equipment, accessories and electrical leads. Do not use if there is any sign of damage. Keep the equipment clean, only use a damp cloth. Do not use solvents or allows liquids to enter the case.
3 Summary of Symbols ISO3864 – Caution, read the entire manual before use IEC 417 – Caution, hot surface (risk of burn) Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE directive) symbol Complies with European regulations (CE mark) USB symbol Ethernet RJ45 symbol Risk of Electrical Shock l O l O l RS422 Serial Port...
4 Electricity Supply Before connecting to the electricity supply please familiarise yourself with the parts of the manual relevant to your model. Your unit's supply voltage requirement is specified on a label on the instrument along with the serial number. Only connect to a power supply matching the requirement stated on the equipment.
The Unit Must Be Earthed This equipment is a Class 1 Appliance and must be earthed (grounded). Use the supplied power cord and plug it directly into an AC outlet with a protective earth. If using an alternative cord ensure it is of adequate rating. If fitting a plug to the cable we have supplied the cable is colour coded as follows: Colour Function...
6 Regulatory Information This product complies with the Essential Protection Requirements of the following Directives: Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC): EMC Directive 2014/30/EU To Harmonised Standard: EN 61326-1:2013 Low Voltage Directive (LVD): LVD Directive 2014/35/EU To Harmonised Standard: BS EN 61010-1:2010 To ensure compliance please ensure that connecting leads are fully screened. This product conforms with Directive 2011/65/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 8 June 2011 as amended by (EU) 2015/863 on the restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment as listed in Article 4.
Cautionary Note Operators of this equipment should be adequately trained in the handling of hot and cold items. It is important the user has been trained about the selection and use of liquids over a wide temperature range. It is expected that personnel using this equipment will be competent with the management of apparatus which may be powered or under extremes of temperature and are able to appreciate the hazards which may be associated with and the precautions to be taken with, such equipment.
Safety Warnings 8.1 Environmental Conditions • Operating temperature: 5-35°C • Relative humidity: 5-95% - non-condensing • Storage temperature range: 5-35°C • Atmosphere pressure: Below 2000 meters above sea level • IP protection: IP20 8.2 Do Not Modify Or Disassemble • Do not use the apparatus for jobs other than those for which it was designed, i.e.
Inserts for low temperature models may melt and cause a fire if used in high temperature models • Only use Isotech inserts which are specially treated to avoid them from becoming stuck in the calibration volume • Do not use powders, liquids or compounds in the insert; this may lead to the insert or probes...
For even higher accuracy, it also offers the option to use blackbody cells, ensuring ultimate precision and lowest calibration uncertainties. The Model 547 is also designed to accommodate open-ended multi-zone thermocouples, making it an ideal choice for calibration professionals in the semiconductor industry.

13.4.3 How to create a simple Program through the User interface We shall create a simple, three segment program to walk through the functions of the programmer feature. This will allow a setpoint change from 200 to 350°C at a Ramp Rate of 5°C/minute (total 30 mins). Then a Dwell at 350°C for a period of 120 minutes with a Holdback band set to 2°C.
The program setting is now complete. The Program can now be started by tapping the Start button on the program screen (6). When the program is running you will not be able to access the Scheduler page, and the button will be “greyed”...
13.6.1 Setting the Scheduler To set a simple schedule follow the procedure below Tap the Start Time box and enter the date and time of the required change in temperature • Tap the Start Setpoint box to enter the target setpoint •...
Do not adjust these settings unless you are familiar with the consequences. If in doubt, contact Isotech for further advice. Use of the Autotune feature will adjust the internal settings of the controller to provide the best possible stability at the setpoint temperature.
