General information

Version 1 RES-401 Page 3

1 General information

This RESISTRON® temperature controller is manufactured according to EN 61010-1. In the course of its manu-

facture it passed through quality assurance, whereby it was subjected to extensive inspections and tests. As a

result of this, the product left our factory in perfect condition.

Please carefully read through the operating manual before using the RESISTRON® temperature controller. Keep

the operating manual for later reference and make sure that information and functions important for the user are

available.

The recommendations and warning notes contained in these operating instructions must be complied with, in

order to guarantee safe operation.

The device can be operated within the limits indicated in the "Technical Data" without impairing its operational

safety. Installation and maintenance may only be performed by technically trained, skilled persons who are familiar

with the associated risks and warranty provisions.

1.1 Copyright

All contents, in particular texts, photographs and graphics, are protected by copyright. All rights, including to rep-

lication, publication, editing and translation, are reserved.

1.2 Intended use

RESISTRON® temperature controllers may only be used for heating and temperature control of heatsealing bands

which are expressly approved for them, and providing the regulations, notes and warnings contained in these

instructions are observed.

In case of non-observance or use contrary to the intended purpose, there is a risk that safety will be impaired or

that the heatsealing band, electrical wiring, transformer etc. will overheat. This is the personal responsibility of the

user.

1.3 Heatsealing band

The use of suitable heatsealing bands is a basic prerequisite for reliable and safe operation of the system.

The resistance of the heatsealing band which is used must have a positive minimum temperature coefficient in

order to guarantee trouble-free operation of the RESISTRON® temperature controller.

The temperature coefficient must be specified as follows:

e.g. Alloy A20: TCR = 1100 ppm/K

LEX3500: TCR = 3500 ppm/K

Vacodil: TCR = 1100 ppm/K

The RESISTRON® temperature controller must be set and coded according to the temperature coefficient of the

heatsealing band.

The temperature coefficient must be taken from the ROPEX application report and must be set accordingly.

The use of incorrect alloys with a too low temperature coefficient and incorrect coding of the

RESISTRON® temperature controller leads to uncontrolled heating of the heatsealing band, which

will ultimately burn out!

The original heatsealing bands must be clearly identified by means of suitable markings as well as the connector

geometry, length, or other means to ensure that replacement bands are identical.

TCR 10x10 4– K1– or K 1– or ppm/K=

General information

Page 4 RES-401 Version 1

1.4 Impulse transformer

A suitable impulse transformer is necessary in order to guarantee trouble-free operation of the control loop. This

transformer must be designed according to EN 61558 or UL 5058 (isolating transformer with reinforced insulation)

and have a one section bobbin. When the impulse transformer is installed, suitable touch protection must be

provided in accordance with the national installation regulations for electrical equipment. In addition to this, water,

cleaning solutions and conductive fluids must be prevented from seeping into the transformer.

Incorrect installation of the impulse transformer impairs electrical safety.

1.5 Current transformer PEX-W4/-W5

The current transformer supplied with the RESISTRON® temperature controller is an integral part of the control

system.

Only the original ROPEX PEX-W4 or PEX-W5 current transformer may be used. Other transformers may cause

the equipment to malfunction.

The current transformer may only be operated if it is correctly connected to the RESISTRON® temperature

controller (see section "Startup and operation"). The relevant safety instructions contained in section "Power

supply", must be observed. External monitoring modules can be used in order to additionally increase operating

safety. They are not included in the scope of supply of the standard control system and are described in a separate

document.

1.6 Line filter

ROPEX provides line filters in different power classes. The ROPEX application report lists the suitable line filter

which can be ordered accordingly.

The use of an original ROPEX line filter is mandatory in order to comply with the directives mentioned in section

"DECLARATION OF CONFORMITY" on page 6. This device must be installed and connected according to the

instructions contained in section "Power supply" as well as the separate documentation enclosed with the line

filter.

1.7 Maintenance

The controller requires no special maintenance. Regular inspection and / or tightening of the terminals – including

the terminals for the winding connections on the impulse transformer – is recommended. Dust deposits on the con-

troller can be removed with dry compressed air.

Dust deposits and dirt from liquids result in a loss of function. Accordingly, installation in a switch

cabinet or terminal cabined with IP54 is recommended.

1.8 Transportation

Store and transport the device in its original carton.

After transport, perform a visual inspection for possible damage.

DECLARATION OF CONFORMITY

We hereby declare that the following device has been developed and manufactured in conformance with the direc-

tives cited below:

Compliant with following standards and directives:

Note:

This declaration of conformity certifies that the device/electronic itself complies with the above-mentioned direc-

tives. The CE mark on the device/electronic does not relieve the machinery manufacturer of his duty to verify the

conformity of the completely installed, wired and operationally ready system in the machine with the EMC directive.

Comments:

RESISTRON/CIRUS temperature controllers are not independently operable devices. They are used by the

machinery manufacturer to form a sealing system by adding EMC-relevant components such as filters, transfor-

mers, heatsealing bands and wiring. The final configuration may vary significantly in terms of performance and

physical dimensions. All information provided by us in connection with the line filter is merely intended as a guide

and is based on a typical measuring setup. It serves to demonstrate that compliance with the EMC directive can

be achieved by using a line filter that is suitable for the overall system. The line filter and current transformer must,

however, be determined on the basis of the respective application. We also wish to point out that the transformer

which is used must be designed in accordance with VDE 0551/EN 61558 or UL 5058 for safety reasons.

2 Application

This RESISTRON® temperature controller is an integral part of the "Series 400", the outstanding feature of which

is its microprocessor technology. All RESISTRON temperature controllers are used to control the temperature of

heating elements (heatsealing bands, beaded bands, cutting wires, heatsealing blades, solder elements etc.), as

required in a variety of heatsealing processes.

The controller is most commonly used for impulse-heatsealing PE films in:

• Vertical and horizontal f/f/s machines

• Pouch, filling and sealing machines

• Film wrapping machines

• Pouch-making machines

• Group packaging machines

•etc.

3 Principle of operation

The resistance of the heatsealing band, which is temperature-sensitive, is monitored 50x per second (60x at 60Hz)

by measuring the current and voltage. The temperature calculated with the help of these measurements is dis-

played and compared with the set point.

The primary voltage of the impulse transformer is adjusted by phase-angle control, if the measured values deviate

from the set point. The resulting change in the current through the heatsealing band leads to a change in the band

temperature and thus also its resistance. This change is measured and evaluated by the RESISTRON® temper-

ature controller.

The control loop is closed: ACTUAL temperature = SET temperature. Even minute thermal loads on the heat-

sealing band are detected and can be corrected quickly and precisely.

A highly high response thermo-electric control loop is formed which is highly accurate because purely electrical

variables are measured at a high sampling rate. A high secondary current can be controlled because power is

controlled on the primary side of the transformer. This allows optimum adaptation to the load and to the required

dynamic range despite the exceptionally compact dimensions of the controller.

4 Traits of the controller

• Very simple operation thanks to AUTOCAL, the automatic zero calibration function.

• Good dynamic response of the control system thanks to AUTOTUNE, which adapts automatically to the con-

trolled system.

• High precision thanks to further improved control accuracy and linearization of the heatsealing band character-

istic.

• High flexibility: The AUTORANGE function (as of October 2005) covers a secondary voltage range from 0.4V

to 120V and a current range from 30A to 500A.

• Automatic adjustment to the line frequency in the range from 47Hz…63Hz.

• Increased protection against dangerous conditions, such as overheating of the heatsealing band.

The ACTUAL temperature of the heatsealing band is supplied to an analog 0…10VDC output. The real heat-

sealing band temperature can thus be displayed on an external temperature indicator (e.g. ATR-3).

The RESISTRON® temperature controller RES-401 features an integrated fault diagnosis function, which tests

both the external system (heatsealing band, wiring etc.) and the internal electronics and indicates a fault by means

of the LED.

Installation

Page 8 RES-401 Version 1

To increase operational safety and interference immunity, all 24VDC logic signals are electrically isolated from the

controller and the heating circuit.

The compact design of the RESISTRON® temperature controller RES-401 and the plug-in connections make this

controller easy to install.

See also section 1 "General information" on page 3.

Installation and startup may only be performed by technically trained, skilled persons who are

familiar with the associated risks and warranty provisions.

5.1 Installation procedure

Proceed as follows to install the RESISTRON® temperature controller RES-401:

1. Switch off the line voltage and verify that the circuit is de-energized.

2. The supply voltage specified on the nameplate of the RESISTRON® temperature controller must be identical

to the line voltage that is present in the plant or machine. The line frequency is automatically detected by the

RESISTRON® temperature controller in the range from 47Hz…63Hz.

3. Install the RESISTRON® temperature controller in the electrical cabinet on a standard top hat rail (DIN TS35

rail, according to DIN EN 50022). If several controllers are installed on one top hat rail, the minimum clearance

specified in section 8 "Technical data" on page 28 must be allowed between them.

4. Wire the system in accordance with the instructions in section 5.3 "Power supply" on page 10, section 5.6

"Wiring diagram" on page 13 and the ROPEX Application Report. The information provided in section 5.2

"Installation steps" on page 9 must also be heeded additionally.

Check the tightness of all the system connections, including the terminals for the impulse trans-

former windings.

5. Make sure that the wiring conforms to the relevant national and international installation regulations.
