Operating manual

1. Intended use

JULABO circulators have been designed to control the temperature of specific fluids in a bath tank. The units feature pump connections for temperature control of external systems (loop circuit).

luxury foods and tobacco, or pharmaceutical and medical products. Direct temperature control means unprotected contact of the object with the bath

1.1. Description

 The circulators are operated via the splash-proof keypad. The implemented

microprocessor technology allows to set and to store different values that can be indicated on the VFD COMFORT-DISPLAY and LCD DIALOG-DISPLAY. Three menu keys facilitate adjusting setpoints, warning and safety functions and menu functions.

 The integrated programmer allows storing and running temperature and time-

dependent processes.

 The control electronics including “ICC - Intelligent Cascade Control“ automatically

adapts the heat supplied to the thermal requirements of the bath.

 The TCF - Temperature Control Features allow the user to have access to all

important temperature control parameters. This means: Full control on the control mode and the chance to manually adjust or adapt control to the specific application.

 Absolute Temperature Calibration (ATC3) provides high temperature stability in the

bath. With the 3-point calibration an offset is adjusted at three temperatures to ensure an accurate temperature pattern at the selected spot in the bath over the full temperature range.

 Electrical connections:

The serial interface, switchable from RS232 to RS485, allows modern process technology without additional interface. Connection for Pt100 external sensor for external temperature measurement and control. Alarm output for external alarm message or control of JULABO refrigerating baths or solenoid valve (cooling water). The electronic module (option) provides 3 further analog connections (alarm input, standby input, recorder output, programmer input).

 The excess temperature protection conforming to IEC 61010-2-010 is a safety

installation independent from the control circuit. This protection can be indicated and set on the LCD DIALOG-DISPLAY.

 The early warning system for low level signals that bath fluid needs to be refilled

before the low level protection conforming to IEC 61010-2-010 causes a complete shut-down of the main functional elements.

 Intelligent pump system: The pump capacity (electronically adjustable via the motor

speed) enables to adapt to varying conditions for internal and external temperature

• Unscrew the M16x1 collar nuts on the pump connectors with a 19 mm (3/4“) wrench and remove the sealing disks. Using the collar nuts, screw on the tubing connection fittings (for tubing 8 mm or 12 mm in diameter) delivered with the unit and tighten firmly. (Pressure pump: 22, suction pump: 21)

• Push on the tubing, and secure with tube clamps.

• Attach the tubing to the connectors of the external closed

system, e.g., an instrument with a pressure-resistant temperature jacket or a temperature coil, and fasten with tube

The circulator is used for temperature application to external,

clamps to prevent slipping.

Temperature application to external, open systems

The circulator is equipped with both a pressure and suction pump for external temperature application in open systems.

Differing flow rates of the pressure and suction pumps should be compensated. To maintain a constant liquid level, the JULABO „D+S“ Level Adapter is recommended for the external bath tank. The flow rate of the pressure pump will be then regulated by a built-in float device. The liquid level may be changed by a height adjustment on the „D+S“ Level Adapter.

Accessory: „D+S“ Level Adapter Order No. 8 970 410

Important:

 The liquid level should be equal in the internal and external

baths (absolute height).

 If you take out samples (for example Erlenmeyer flasks) from

the external bath, turn the circulator off with the Sta rt/Stop key.
