5. Configuració

5.1. Instal·lació

  1. Cut a panel cutout of W92xH45mm for mounting.
  2. Insert the TK4W-14RR into the cutout from the front.
  3. Secure the unit using the provided mounting brackets from the rear.

5.2. Cablatge

Refer to the wiring diagram provided with your unit for specific terminal connections. Ensure all connections are secure and correctly polarized.

  • Font d'alimentació: Connect 100-240VAC to the designated power terminals.
  • Entrada del sensor: Connect your temperature sensor (e.g., RTD, Thermocouple) to the input terminals. Ensure correct polarity for thermocouples.
  • Control Outputs (OUT1, OUT2): Connect your heating/cooling elements or other control devices to the relay output terminals. Observe maximum current ratings.
  • Alarm Output (AL1): Connect external alarm devices if required.

6. Funcionament

6.1. Encès

Once wired correctly, apply power to the unit. The PV display will show the current temperature, and the SV display will show the last set target temperature.

6.2. Setting the Set Value (SV)

  1. Premeu el botó MODE button briefly to enter SV setting mode. The SV display will flash.
  2. Utilitza el Up i Avall arrow buttons to adjust the SV to your desired temperature.
  3. Utilitza el Esquerra/Dreta arrow button to move the cursor for faster adjustment of individual digits.
  4. Premeu el botó MODE button again to confirm the new SV and return to normal operation.

6.3. Auto-Tuning (AT)

The Auto-Tuning function automatically calculates optimal PID parameters for your specific process. This is recommended for initial setup or if process characteristics change significantly.

  1. Ensure the SV is set to the desired operating temperature.
  2. Refer to the detailed parameter manual for entering the parameter setting mode.
  3. Locate the Auto-Tuning (AT) parameter and activate it. The AT indicator will flash.
  4. The controller will cycle the output to determine the process characteristics. This may take some time.
  5. Once complete, the AT indicator will turn off, and the newly calculated PID parameters will be applied.

7. Manteniment

Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and longevity of your TK4W-14RR controller.

  • Neteja: Wipe the front panel with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
  • Inspecció: Periodically check wiring connections for looseness or damage.
  • Medi ambient: Assegureu-vos que l'entorn de funcionament es mantingui dins dels rangs de temperatura i humitat especificats.
