7. Detailed Description
MultiTemp III regulates temperature by balancing the effects
of constant cooling and controlled pulses of heating.
Constant cooling is provided by a built-in unit that includes a
compressor, an air cooled liquifier and an evaporator (a coo-
ling coil as heat exchanger) located in the chamber. This coo-
ling unit operates at temperatures up to 68.0 °C. Beyond this
temperature, the compressor automatically switches off.
Heating is provided by pulses of power at a frequency esta-
blished by the set working temperature.
This type of control achieves an optimal balance between
cooling and heating and maintains the liquid temperature
constant at any pre-set level.
See Figure 1 for a description of the front and rear panels
with connection points for cooling liquid and power.
The five digit numeric display shows either the actual opera-
ting temperature, error messages or the set temperature. After
selecting mode or setting temperature, the display automati-
cally switches back to the actual temperature after approxi-
mately 10 seconds.
In the “actual temperature” mode, a constantly lit dot in the
left digit position indicates that the heater is working to
reach the set temperature. A flashing dot indicates that the
liquid in the bath has reached this working temperature.
The control light is lit only when the compressor is in
operation.
