BASIC OPERATIONS

Outline
The upper and lower rollers of the fixing assembly are driven by the main motor (M1).
The upper roller is heated by a single heater (H1: 900W). When the surface temperature of the
roller rises, the resistance of the thermistors (TH1/TH2) falls, so the voltage of the signal FIXING
ROLLER SURFACE TEMPERATURE signal (MAIN-TH/AUX-TH) also falls.
Whether the voltage of TH1 (analog) is above or below a certain level at a given time deter-
mines if the microprocessor of the DC controller causes the HEATER DRIVE command (HTRD)
to go '1' or '0'.
The copier is provided with the following three protection mechanisms:
• The microprocessor monitors the voltage of TH1 and TH2 and indicates 'E000' or 'E001' in
response to an error, i.e., ACOFF goes '0' to turn the relay (K100) OFF, thereby cutting the
AC power to the fixing heater.
• The fixing roller error detection circuit monitors the voltage of TH1 and TH2 and, when it
drops below 0.9V (equivalent of 215°C), turns HTRD OFF.
• The microprocessor monitors the signal of HTON. When the HTON signal is ON while the
HTRD signal is OFF, the microprocessor cuts the AC power.
• The thermal switch (F1) goes OFF when the temperature of its inside rises to 230°C to cut off
the power to the fixing heater.
Note:
The thermal switch (TS1) cannot be used after its contact has opened: the contact will not
return to its normal state at room temperature.
