Page 49: Principles Of Operation
Principles of Operation Introduction Three factors must be taken into account when optimizing the operation of a Model 300B Series Temperature Controller: selection of both the appropriate temperature sensor and TE module heat sink, and the manner in which they are mounted. -
Page 50: The Steinhart-Hart Equation
100°C a 100k ohm thermistor would be a better selection. The rule of thumb is to operate the thermistor near the lower end of its temperature range and use the 100µA current bias. Please contact Newport’s applications engineers if you have any questions regarding the selection of the proper thermistor for your application. -

Page 53: Lm135/335 Series Ic Sensors
Principals Of Operation 7.3.2 LM135/335 Series IC Sensors The LM135/335 Series devices are similar to the AD590 in that they are two terminal devices and their output is directly proportional to absolute temperature. Operating like a two terminal zener diode, the LM135/335 Series temperature sensors have a breakdown voltage directly proportional to absolute temperature at +10mV/°K. -
Page 54: Mounting Considerations
Principles of Operation It is necessary to remove the heat from the hot side of the TE module. The amount of heat to be dissipated is equal to the heat pumped from the cold side plus the input power to the TE module. Although the amount of cooling is proportional to the current flowing through the TE module, the power dissipated by Joule heating (input power heating) in the TE module is proportional to the square of the current. -
Page 55: Pid Tuning
In Model 300B series instruments, a PID control algorithm is implemented to achieve optimal stability and settling performance. Temperature Thermo-Electric Temperature Controller (TE) Module (Model 325B, 350B) Setpoint Temperature Sensor (Thermistor, AD590, LM335…) Temperature Controlled Mounts (Model 700, 740, 760 series) -
Page 56: P Loop
Principles of Operation The problem for most users is to get a feeling for this formula, especially when trying to tune the PID loop. Tuning the PID means changing its three gain factors to obtain a certain system response, a challenging task to achieve without some basic understanding of its behavior. -
Page 57: Pid Loop
Principals Of Operation Thermo-Electric Temperature (TE) Module Setpoint ∫e Temperature Sensor Temperature Controller Figure 20 PI Temperature Controller Block Diagram The result is that the contribution of integral term to the control signal will increase until it reduces the temperature following error to zero. While this is desirable for many situations, the integral term can have a severe destabilizing effect on the control loop if increased too much. -
Page 58: Model 300B Series Setup
Principles of Operation Model 300B Series Setup Setting up the Model 300B Series Temperature Controller is a simple procedure. An AC power cord, supplied with each unit, must be plugged into a properly grounded outlet. The tilt up feet, at the bottom of the unit, may be extended to enhance the viewing angle of the front panel. - Page 59 Controller any of the parameters may be displayed and the status of the Model 300B Series Temperature Controller may be monitored.
