Inserting the Immersion Thermocouple into the Molten Salt Bath
Once the salts have become molten immerse the clean Immersion Thermocouple into the salt bath and secure it to the salt pot with the mount. We have said it
before in this manual, but we are going to say it again: any material that is placed into the molten salt bath must be absolutely clean and free of any grease, water,
moisture or other contaminant. Failure to follow this instruction can result in a pressure build-up resulting in the molten salts being violently expelled out of the salt
pot and into the surrounding area. This presents a burn and fire hazard as well as potential personal injury or death.
Immersion Thermocouple placed within the salt pot and held with mount
Once the Immersion thermocouple is inserted into the salt bath, press the “Probe” key on the TAP control and then press the “Immersion” key. This action causes the
TAP control to now control the heating process via the Immersion thermocouple which is the actual temperature of the molten salts, and that’s what we want.
Press the “PROBE” key to select Active Thermocouple
A dialogue box appears, press “Immersion” to select the
Immersion Thermocouple. The dialogue box disappears and
you are now controlling from the Immersion thermocouple.
