may be mounted on a table top or on a load unit.
Model 409.83 Temperature Controller
Inappropriate use Before you attempt to use the Model 409.83 High Temperature Controller, read
and understand this manual. Improper installation or operation of this product
can result in hazardous conditions that can cause severe personal injury or death,
and damage your equipment and specimen.
WEEE The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) symbol ( ) means
that the controller and its electronic parts must not be disposed of as unsorted
municipal waste. Proper disposal is required by approved electronic waste
collection agencies. Customers in the EC region who desire to return an end-oflife controller and its electronic parts are encouraged to contact your local MTS
Systems Sales/Service Offices for instructions.
Model 409.83 Temperature Controller Functional Description
Closed-loop control is maintained in each zone by a single Eurotherm Model
2216 Temperature Controller (control module). The Model 409.83 Temperature
Controller includes up to three Eurotherm control modules which correspond to
up to three heat zones in the furnace. Each module accepts a thermocouple input
and outputs proportional power to control the respective furnace heating element.
The control modules are programmed at MTS for use with Series 652 or 653
High-Temperature Furnaces. Tuning parameters establish the temperature
setpoint, control accuracy, and operating limits. Alarm circuits function as an

interlock when the heater elements are enabled. If undesirable conditions arise,
power to the heater elements is cut off automatically.
The following figure illustrates a block diagram of the Model 409.83
Temperature Controller and a high-temperature furnace.
A temperature setpoint is selected for each furnace heat zone. The setpoint is
compared to the temperature measurement provided by a thermocouple inside in
the furnace. Any difference (between the setpoint and the actual temperature)
causes an error signal.
The error signal produces a time proportional signal. This time proportional
signal is sent to a corresponding solid state relay. The time proportional output
pulses the solid state relay on and off at a rate determined by the amplitude and
polarity of the error signal. The solid state relay applies the AC power to the
corresponding heating element in the furnace.

All input/output signals that interface the temperature controller and other system
components are available on the bottom panel. This section provides information
on all input/output signals of the temperature controller.
Model 409.83 Temperature Controller Bottom Panel
The furnace/controller must be connected to a supply source which
incorporates a residual current operated circuit-breaker which interrupts the
supply at a differential current of 30mA or less.
Due to the fact that the heaters are hazardous live and are accessible, the
equipment must be connected to a supply source that incorporates such a circuit
breaker.
Chassis voltage The temperature controller receives power from a detachable, three-wire power
cord. The power cord plugs into an input power connector block located on the
bottom panel. The chassis power switch is located on the rear panel; on is labeled
|, and off is labeled 0. The line voltage is selected at time of order (120 or 240 V)
and is not field selectable.
J1, J2, J3
thermocouple inputs
Temperature feedback is provided through a single Type ‘R’ thermocouple lead
(for each zone). The furnace thermocouples should be connected to the input
connectors. The connections are polarized; the longer slot is negative (–) and the
shorter slot is positive (+).

connected to J4 and J5 are interchangeable.
J4 and J5 Heating Element Output Connections
The J6 serial communication port has three functions:
• Interlock input
The interlock input can be connected to an external (normally-closed)
switch or contact. If the external switch or contact opens, the temperature
controller alarm is triggered, and power is cut off to the heating elements.
• Interlock contact output
The interlock output (relay output) can be connected to an external
monitoring device to follow the enable/alarm state of the temperature
controller. This contact is closed when the Model 409.83 Controller heating
elements are enabled. If an alarm is triggered or the Disable button is
pressed (interlock is open), a signal is sent to the external monitoring device.
• RS–485 communication port to temperature control module
All functions and readout values in each Eurotherm 2216 Controller can be
monitored and adjusted by a single RS-485 serial port located at J6.
If nothing is connected to the J6 port, a jumper plug must be installed (MTS part
number 525099-01).

Model 409.83 Temperature Controller Calibration
Model 409.83 Temperature Controller Calibration
The basic calibration of the controller is highly stable and set for life. User
calibration allows you to offset the permanent factory calibration to either:
• Calibrate the controller to your reference standards.
• Match the calibration of the controller to that of a particular transducer or
sensor input.
• Calibrate the controller to suit the characteristics of a particular installation
• Remove long term drift in the factory-set calibration.
User calibration works by introducing zero and span offsets onto the factory-set
calibration.
Note For complete information on enabling and performing user calibration,
refer to the Eurotherm Model 2216 Temperature Controller manual.

Eurotherm Automatic Tuning. Once the MTS factory settings have been
entered, you may deviate from them (in small steps).
Parameters are settings within the control module that determine how the control
module will operate. For example, alarm setpoints are parameters that determine
when alarms will occur. Parameters are arranged in lists. The names of these lists
are found in the list headers. The available lists are:
Home List Set Point List On/Off List
Alarm List Input List Communications List
PID List Output List Access List
Typical List Header Display
Note Refer to the Eurotherm Model 2216 product manual shipped with this
manual for a listing of the parameters available under each list header.

If any of the temperature controllers detect an alarm condition, two indicators
notify the operator.
Process Alarms
The alarm indicator on the lower panel lights, and an alarm message flashes in
either the upper or lower readout of the Home display. Alarms can be
acknowledged by pressing the page or scroll buttons on the display on the
affected control module.
On the control modules, new alarms are displayed as a double flash, followed by
a pause. If there is more than one alarm, the display cycles through the relevant
alarm conditions.
There are two types of alarms: Process and Diagnostic.
Process alarms warn of a problem with the process being monitored by the
controller.
