JULABO Cryo-Compact Circulators have been designed for temperature application to
specific fluids in a bath tank. The units feature pump connections for temperature control of
external systems (loop circuit).
JULABO circulators are not suitable for direct temperature control of foods,
semi-luxury foods and tobacco, or pharmaceutical and medical products. Direct
temperature control means unprotected contact of the object with the bath
medium (bath fluid).
1.1. Description
; The Cryo-Compact Circulators are operated via the splash-proof keypad.
The implemented microprocessor technology allows to set and to store the
setpoint that can be indicated on the LED temperature display.
; The PID temperature control adapts the heat supplied to the thermal
requirements of the bath.
PID1
RS232
; Safety installations conforming to IEC 61010-2-010
The excess temperature protection is a safety installation independent from
the control circuit.
The safety value is set using a tool (screwdriver).
If the low level protection device is triggered, a complete shutdown of the
heater and circulating pump is effected.
; The serial interface RS232 allows modern process technology without
additional interface.

)
A transfer sequence consists of:
If the Cryo-Compact Circulator is put into remote control mode the
MULTI-DISPLAY (LED) will read „R -OFF-„ = REMOTE STOP. The
Cryo-Compact Circulator is now operated via the computer.
In general, the computer (master) sends commands to the
recirculating cooler (slave). The recirculating cooler sends data
(including error messages) only when the computer sends a query.
In remote control mode:
After a power interruption the order to start and all values which have
to be adjusted must be resent from the personal computer via the
interface. AUTOSTART is not possible.
x command OUT/IN command
x space (; Hex: 20) OUT/IN command
x parameter (the character separating decimals in a group
is the period) OUT command
x end of file (; Hex: 0D) OUT/IN command
x The response (data string) after an in command is always followed
To ensure a safe data transfer, the time gap between two commands
should be at least 250 ms.
The Cryo-Compact Circulator automatically respon ds to an in
command with a data string followed by a LF (Line Feed). The next
command should only be sent after 10 ms.
The commands are divided into in or out commands.
in commands: asking for parameters to be displayed
out commands: setting parameters
The out commands are valid only in remote control mode.
Examples:
Command to set the working temperature to15,5 °C:
out_sp_00
Command to ask for the working temperature
in_sp_00
Response from the recirculating cooler:
15.5
LF

JULABO Cryo-compact circulator s of the HighTech series
are equipped with a so-called black box. This box is
implemented in the controller and records all significant data
for the last 30 minutes.
In case of a failure, this data can be read out from the unit by
using special software. The respective program is available
for free download from \ EasyBlackBox.
x Installation is easy and carried out step by step.
Please observe the instructions.
x Data read-out is possible in the conditions
„OFF“, „R OFF“ or „ALARM“.
x Connect the Cryo-compact circulator to the computer
using an interface cable.
x Start the EasyBlackBox program.
The program asks for the used port (COM1, ......) and the
baud rate of the unit.
You do not have this information on han d? Simply try it
out!
The program keeps on sending this request until the
actually used port and correct baud rate are entered .
x Data is read out and shown on the monitor
divided in the sections
>Einstellungen/Settings<,
>Alarmspeicher/Alarms stored<,
>Blackbox<
Í see example
x After pressing >Speichern/Save< a text file
is compiled. The program proposes a
filename >C:\model description and barcode no.< .
Modifications are possible.
To maintain the full cooling
performance, clean the condenser (C)
from time to time.
