Position the heat-resistant expanded silicone
rubber pad on the lower heating plate. Close the
press normally. Submit the pressure chamber to a
pressure of maximum 1 bar. Switch the heating
on, set the nominal value at 180°C and switch the
time relay off.
After 40 minutes heating time, open the press
slightly lift the upper heating plate and insert a
precision thermometer between the expanded
silicone rubber pad and the upper heating plate,
exactly in the center of the heating plate.
Close the hot press (just under its own weight).
Take a temperature reading after about 3 minutes.
Repeat the procedure for the lower heating plate
(insert the sensor under the expanded silicone
rubber pad in the center of the heating plate). The
temperature measured must be at 180°C +/- 2°C
(max. measuring pre/- 1°C).
If the temperature is not yet within the set range it
will be necessary to adjust the temperature offset
in the PMR-XX unit. (see its own manual)
