4 | Description of project 4 Description of project 4.1 Functioning ® The temperature controller RESISTRON RES-5012 works in the control loop like this: The resistance of the heat-sealing band changes along with the temperature of the heat-sealing band. The resistance of the heat-sealing band is determined by measuring the current and voltage.
Page 15
Description of project | 4 Modification There is an optional device modification available, e.g. for use with very short or low- resistance heating-sealing bands. Other functions Some of the features and functions: • Easy calibration of the heating element through AUTOCAL, the automatic zero- point setting.

Malfunction due to use of devices from other manufacturers Devices from other manufacturers can lead to malfunctions in the control loop. Use only original ROPEX current transformers or ROPEX monitoring current trans- formers. The current transformer is a component of the control loop. It may be used only to measure the current, enabling the temperature controller to determine the heat-sealing band temperature.
Page 20
CE conformity of the temperature controller can only be achieved with the line filters recommended and supplied by ROPEX. The line filters damp the reaction of the phase-angle control on the line and protect the temperature controller against line dis- turbances.
