Installation Planning
THJ80:
Footprint:
21 x 27 in.
Weight:
425 lbs.
The THJ80 ThermoJet is intended to operate in ambient conditions of 23
°
C to 28
°
C and 0%
to 50% relative humidity. The THJ80 will, however, operate over a wide variety of ambient
conditions without damage. Customers with unusual or severe ambient conditions should
contact FTS for advice before operating their system.
The control touch screen can be located on the top of the base unit (attached to the hose/arm
support post) or placed closer to the test fixture.
The THJ80 base unit cabinet must have at least six inches of clearance around the rear and
left side panels to allow sufficient airflow for cooling. Blocking the airflow may cause the
compressors to overheat, reduce performance and ultimately lead to compressor failure.
Input Power
The THJ80 ThermoJet can be supplied with either of two different operating voltages
configurations:
Option 1:
208V - 230V @ 60Hz / 200V @ 50 Hz
Option 2:
220V - 230V @ 50 Hz (A step-down transformer is Included with this option.)
Check the electrical data plate in the lower rear corner of the right side to confirm your
system’s correct operating voltage.
The ThermoJet requires a 30A electrical source. Although the nominal operating current will
be less, the full 30A capacity is necessary when operating at the high temperature limits.
A ten-foot long, 10/3 (hot, hot, and ground) Type SO electrical cord is provided with the
system. Due to the wide variety of electrical receptacles used in the industry, no electrical
plug is provided. Before wiring the unit to a power supply, a CPC connector (supplied with the
unit) should be installed at the back of the panel (Fig. 3).
NOTE:
Lock the main breaker in the OFF (OPEN) position when connecting electrical
power to the unit in order to prevent unintended start up. A breaker lock out device is
supplied with the unit.
For proper system operation and to prevent damage to electrical components, the system’s
actual running voltage should be 10% to -0% of the rated voltage. It is important to
note that actual voltages may fluctuate significantly depending on the season or time of day.
