Operation and control
5.5.3 Automatic
temperature monitor ( ASF)
ASF is a monitoring device that automatically follows the set temperature setpoint within an
adjustable tolerance band (Fig. 19 ).
The ASF – if switched on – is automatically activated as soon as the actual temperature value
reaches 50 % of the set tolerance band of the setpoint (in the example: 180 °C – 1.5 K) for the
first time (section A).
When the temperature violates the set tolerance band around the setpoint (in the example in
Fig. 19:
180 °C ± 3 K) – e.g. if the door is opened during operation (section B of illustration) – the
alarm is set off. The ASF alarm is automatically triggered as soon as 50 % of the set tolerance
band of the setpoint (in the example: 180 °C ± 1.5 K) are reached again (section C).
If the temperature setpoint is altered, the ASF is automatically disabled temporarily (in this
example: The setpoint is changed from 180 °C to 173 °C, section D) until the tolerance range
of the new temperature setpoint is reached again (section E).

Mechanical temperature monitoring: Temperature limiter ( TB)
The appliance is equipped with a mechanical temperature limiter (TB) of protection class 1 in
accordance with DIN 12 880.
If the electronic monitoring unit should fail during operation and the factory-set maximum
temperature is exceeded by approx. 20 °C, the temperature limiter, as the final protective
measure, switches off the heating permanently.
