Function Stirring - IKA IKAMAG RCT basic Mode D'emploi

The stirring function then continues to run at the speed that was
set before the malfunktion.
A 6-pin jack is located on the rear side of the instrument for connec-
ting the ETS-D, the contact thermometer or the contact plug. The
electronics of the instruments returns a test current that must flow
via connector pins 3 and 5 for the heating plate to heat up.
Safety contact thermometers
acc. to DIN 12 878 class 2 or acc. Gerstel are connected with a
three-wire cable, the test current flows through the contact ther-
mometer.
Safety function:
If the test current is interrupted because of e.g. breakage of contact
thermometer or falling out of the cable plug, the heating cuts off.
The required plug allocation is indicated on a reference plate
above the diode bushing.
Contact thermometer without safety circuit
acc. to DIN 12 878 class 0. The instrument only heats if the test
current circuit is closed by an electrical connection of the plug
pins 3 and 5.
2-wire connecting cables:
Connect plug pins 3 and 5 of the instrument plug.
3-wire connecting cables:
Here the test current circuit can also be produced in the terminal
head of the contact thermometer (connect plug pins 2 and 3).
A 3-wire cable with the required bridge is available (accessories).

For the detailed instructions for settings and limit values, please
refer to the operating instructions for the instrument you are
connecting.

The desired average temperature can be adjustedon the ETS-
D or contact thermometer. In addition, a "MAXTEMP" can be
set for the ETS-D, in other words, a maximum average tem-
perature can be set for malfunctions in combination with the
RCT basic. The required surface temperature of the heating
plate can be selected with the "Temp" dial.
Adjusting the "Temp" dial to the maximum adjustable temperatu-
re will result in the fastest possible heating time, but the average
temperature may fluctuate to values above the set-point tempera-
ture on the contact thermometer, for example. By adjusting the
"Temp" dial to approximately twice the set-point value (thus with
a set-point ot 60°C the Temp dial would be set to 120°C), you will
reach a good compromise between a fast heating time and overs-
hooting the set point.
If you adjust the Temp dial to exactly the set-point temperature,
the medium will not reach the set-point temperature, since some
loss of the heat will always occur between the heating plate and
the medium.
The maximum heating plate temperature can be adjusted will
the "Safe Temp" screw.

Function Stirring

The funktion stirring is started and stopped by its corresponding switch.
The motor speed is set on the rotary knob „mot" with its dial from 1 to 10.
If the motor is switched on, it runs-up to the speed set on the rotary knob,
and the LED „mot" beside the imprint „Mot" shines green.
The dial from 1 - 10 conforms with a speed range from 50 .1100 1/min.
When idling, the speed is 1100 1/min at maximum setting of the
rotary kn ob (right-hand stop).
If the viscosity increases during thr process, the speed drops a litt-
le. If the viscosity decreases, e.g. due to adding thinly fluid media,
the speed increases a little. By a corresponding resetting of the
rotary knob, both of these cases can be balanced, as long as the
