CTD4000-140 (cooling and heating)
■
CTD4000-375 (heating)
■
CTD4000-650 (heating)
The temperature dry-well calibrator consists of a robust,
grey-painted steel case, with a carrying handle on top.
The rear part of the case contains a metal block with a
19 x 150 mm or 26 x 150 mm bore in which the inserts can
be placed.
With the help of the inserts temperature probes of different
sizes can then be calibrated.
The heater element heats the block and an electronic µ
controller with static relay output checks and regulates the
temperature.
The metal block is thermally insulated.
A centrally mounted fan generates a constant air flow that
reduces the temperature of the case.
The air flow is divided in two parts: One part of the air flows
from the back of the calibrator, while the second part of the
flow is parallel to the top grid of the calibrator. Thus, the
stem of the sensor is above the insert at the lowest possible
temperature.
The front part of the case contains the complete electronic
unit for controlling the reference temperature.
To control the heating elements, solid-state relays (SSRs) are
used.
On the front panel is the controller, which is fitted with an LED
display (2-line) for the reference and set temperature.
4.2 Isometric views
Front and top
On the top of the temperature dry-well calibrator, you will find

4.6 Heating resistance (CTD4000-375 or CTD4000-650)
The resistance is made from stainless steel; the max power
is 630 W and it can become very hot.
The use of the calibrator at continuous high
temperatures reduces the service life of the
resistor. Limit the number of hours at which the
resistance is used at maximum temperatures
to the time required by the calibrator in order to
prolong the life of the resistance.
4.8 Safety thermostat (CTD4000-375 or CTD4000-650)
The calibrator is fitted with a thermal fuse for the highest
temperature, which has a manual reset button. The thermal
fuse switches off the heating system as soon as there is an
error.
If Ht is showing on the display means, that the temperature
has exceeded the upper limit.
If Ht is on the display:
1. Cool the temperature calibrator
The temperature must fall to at least 60 ... 80 °C
⇒
[140 ... 176 °F] under the high set value (standard).
2. Switch off the calibrator then switch on again a few
second later.
The thermostat has been factory set to 660 °C
±10 °C [1,220 °F ±10 °F] with the CTD4000-650
and to 385 °C ±10 °C [725 °F ±10 °F] with the
CTD4000-375.
If the problem persists, disconnect the calibrator from the
voltage supply and rectify the possible fault.
4.9 Fan
A fan is installed in the calibrator. The fan works with two
different speeds: the control system switches on the fan
at minimum speed with increasing temperature, and at
maximum speed for decreasing the temperature. The fan
keeps the case of the calibrator at a low temperature when
the temperature increases and assist the cooling process.
Every hole at the bottom and at the back of
CTD4000 must be kept free in order to let the air
flow properly.
The equalising block has an opening of 26 mm into which
the inserts for almost any temperature probe size can be
inserted. The function of this block is to make the temperature
in the calibration zone uniform.
The bores are dependent on the temperature probes.
For further information, see 6.7 “Testing or calibrating
temperature probes”. Through this, any problems, which
might arise if the wrong tolerances are used, will be avoided.
4.7 Temperature sensors
The temperature sensor used for the reading and
thermoregulation is inserted directly into the equalising block
to display the real temperature value.
10 WIKA operating instructions, model CTD4000
4.10 Inserts
In order to achieve the greatest possible accuracy, the use of
exactly matched inserts is necessary. For this, the diameter
of the test item must be accurately determined. The bore for
the insert is obtained by adding approx. +1 mm [+0.04 in],
depending on the temperature range.
Following use, the inserts should be removed
using the replacement tools and then the insert
and block should be cleaned. This prevents the
sleeves becoming jammed in the heating block.

6. Commissioning, operation
6.3 First commissioning
To avoid any smell in the room it is better to switch on the
calibrator outside the room for the first time.
6.4 Operating position
The operating position of the temperature dry-well calibrator
is in the vertical orientation, since this guarantees an optimal
EN
temperature distribution in the metal block.
▶
Place the temperature dry-well calibrator on a clean and
even surface so that the fan on the bottom is not blocked
and sufficient fresh air can be drawn in.
Insufficient ventilation can lead to damage to
the calibrator. Therefore, make sure that there is
enough space around the temperature dry-well
calibrator and that the air can circulate.
6.5 Switching on the calibrator
1. Connect to the mains using the mains connector supplied.
Ensure that the correct voltage is present when doing
⇒
this.
Make sure that the instrument has been correctly
⇒
grounded.
2. Switch on the mains switch.
The controller will be initialised. After approx. 5 secs, the
initialisation will be complete and the calibration mode will
automatically be displayed.
The lower display will show Stby.
6.6 Setting a set temperature
1. Insert the insert into the equalising block
Make sure that it does not get caught.
⇒
2. Insert the thermometer to be tested into the sleeve.
Here, also ensure that this doesn't get caught.
⇒
3. With the [▲] or [▼] button, enter the set point.
4. Confirm the entry with the [E] button.
The built-in heating or cooling elements will temper the metal
block automatically from room temperature to the controller's
set temperature.
If the temperature has stabilised, this will be shown by the
STABILITY-LED blinking in the lower right of display 1.
6.7 Testing or calibrating temperature probes
WARNING!
Risk of burns!
Touching the hot metal block or the test item can
lead to acute burns.
▶
During the use of the calibrator, do not touch
the upper grille, the inserts or temperature
probes because they may be very hot.
6.7.1 Testing of temperature probes
To test temperature probes, connect a separate temperature
measuring instrument to the test item. By comparing the
temperature displayed on the external measuring instrument
with the reference temperature, there is evidence of the
status of the test item. Here, pay attention to the fact that the
test item requires a short time until it reaches the temperature
of the metal block.
At the end of the test, DO NOT remove the probe while it is
still at high temperature. First. cool the calibrator while the
probes are still inserted, see chapter 6.9 “Cooling down the
metal block”.
Before returning the calibrator to its case make sure that,
the temperature of the block is almost the same as ambient
temperature.
6.7.2 Calibrating temperature probes
Calibrations with a temperature dry-well calibrator can be
performed with the internal reference of the calibrator. Should
a better accuracy need to be achieved, working with an
external reference is required. With the second option the
external reference and the test item should be located on the
same height and near together.
6.7.3 Positioning the temperature probe
Insert the temperature probe, together with the matching
insert, into the temperature dry-well calibrator.
The insert is manufactured from aluminium or brass and has
one or more holes so that a large number of temperature
probes can be calibrated in this insert. This insert has the
function of distributing the temperature evenly.
It is therefore also possible to calibrate temperature probes
with different lengths so long as the depth of the holes has
been adjusted.
▶
After setting up the calibrator, insert the insert carefully
into the holder.
Ensure that no dirt or other foreign materials can get
⇒
between the block and the insert.

6. Commissioning, operation
The insert replacement tool is a curved pair of pliers that can
be hooked into the holes provided in the top of the insert. The
insert must be aligned in such a way, so that the grooves sit
directly over the controlling and monitoring thermometers.
In order to achieve the best result from the calibration, the
following points must be observed:
■
Diameter of the temperature probe being checked

6.7.4 Calibration with one reference
If the length of the temperature probe is shorter than the
depth of the bore, then the reference should also be placed
at the height of the test item.
Further preconditions for the calibration of references:
■
The maximum temperature of the temperature probe
should be higher than the temperature of the calibrator,
otherwise the temperature probe could be destroyed.
■
Insert the test item into the insert before reaching the
target temperature, otherwise instabilities and sensor
break could result.
■
Both temperature probes must be as close to each other
as possible (see figure 3).

than the SP, the calibrator will not accept the run and the instrument will display “Err”. The LED will flash to
indicate that the function is active. The set point will change the value following the selected slope rate. When
the internal temperature reaches the SEt2 set point, the internal temperature will decrease with the cooling
slope rate; the SP value will be considered as the new set point. During the ramp program, the derivative
parameter will not be considered. During the ramp program, the LED on the right of the set point flashes and
the set point increases or decreases the value.

2. Confirm the entry with the [E] button.
When there is a step variation of temperature, the derivative action induces a greater initial adjustment, so that
the oven will have a greater power than it usually has due to the proportional and integral action only. Since
the error persists, the derivative action reduces the impact giving the integral action the task of reducing the
error.
