Model 409.83 Temperature Controller Specifications
Introduction
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.
