EZ-SEAL HEAT TUNNEL
MAIN COMPONENTS
CONVECTIVE (BR/SR Models)
The Convective style Heat Shrink Tunnel has the following main components:
1.
Temperature Controller (1128)
– The temperature controller monitors a thermocouple and
controls power to the heater elements to maintain the set temperature.
2.
Thermocouple (1031)
– The thermocouple monitors the temperature of the air in the tunnel.
3.
Solid State Relay (1127 220VAC)/(1220 480VAC)
– The Solid State Relay takes the signal
from the temperature controller and turns on and off to control the flow of electricity through
the heating elements.
4.
Fan (1057)
– The fan and its two blower wheels provide the forced air flow through the
tunnel. The lower wheel (3052) provides the re-circulating flow of hot air which shrinks the
film. The upper wheel (3072) provides a flow of air that keeps the control components cool
and cools the outer skin of the tunnel.
5.
Heat Up/Cool Down Switch (1066)
– This switch allows the operator to enable and disable
the heating elements to allow the tunnel to heat up or cool down.
6.
Snap Switch (1089)
– Bimetallic switch which controls the operation of the fan. Turns fan
on and off at about 120 degrees F.
7.
Heating Elements (1042 220VAC)/(1221 & 1223 480VAC)
– 3600-Watt resistive type
heating elements provided.
The fan and temperature controller operate on 220 Volts AC. If the tunnel is provided for a voltage other
than 220 VAC then a step down transformer is provided.
RADIANT (IR Models)
The Radiant style Heat Shrink Tunnel has the following main components:
1.
Proportional Controller (1631)
– The temperature controller, with an integral on/off switch,
monitors the amount of electrical current to the heating elements and turns on and off to
maintain the desired heat level.
2.
Fan (1054)
– The fan provides a flow of air that keeps the control components cool and cools
the outer skin of the tunnel.
3.
Infrared Elements (1629)
– 2500-Watt metallic type heating elements with reflector.
