K8AC-H

Voltage Fluctuation Compensation

The voltage fluctuation compensation function automatically adjusts 
the burnout alarm value of the K8AC-H according to voltage 
fluctuations in the heater circuit.
The operating value for burnout detection when multiple heaters are 
connected is set very close to the normal value. Thus, a false burnout 
alarm output will occur if there is a voltage drop in the heater circuit.
The voltage fluctuation compensation function prevents this type of 
false output.
Example: Voltage Drop from 100 V to 95 V in the Heater Circuit

Conditions: 
Voltage fluctuation compensation standard value = 100 V
Burnout alarm set value = 10.0 A
If the power supply voltage drops from 100% to 95%, the 
operating value will also reduced from 100% to 95%.
Burnout alarm operating value = 10.0 A 

×

 95% = 9.5 A

Gate Input

The gate input provides a sync signal used to link burnout detection 
to the control output of the temperature controller. 
For SSR control, the voltage output pulse from the temperature 
controller is input.
For ON/OFF control, 24 VDC linked to a relay contact of the 
temperature controller is input. 
For cyclic or phase control, a 4 to 20-mA control signal is input. 
If there is no gate input for a Heater Element Burnout Detector, a 
heater burnout alarm would be falsely output when the voltage output 
pulse from the temperature controller turns OFF, and there would be 
no way to tell whether it was a false output.
Note: The gate input function can be disabled. If it is disabled, Heater 

Element Burnout Detector operation will not be linked to the 
temperature controller control signal. (The gate input can be 
used as a simple undercurrent relay.)

Using the Power Regulator's Gradient Settings

The power regulator's gradient settings can be used to prevent 
malfunction by setting the operation gate current level. The 
relationship between the gradient settings and output current 
depends on the power regulator manufacturer and model, so be sure 
to check the characteristics of the power regulator being used before 
setting.

Setting Example
Initial setting: 7 mA

When the power regulator's gradient settings are changed, the 
operation gate current level is set so that the output current is within 
the measurement range. (In the following diagram, 14 mA is set.)

Using Halogen or Other Heaters with Varying 
Resistance during Phase and Cyclic Control

When phase control is used with halogen heaters or other pure metal 
heaters, the heater resistance fluctuates according to the control 
level. As a result, high-precision detection of heater burnout is not 
possible. The effect on the heater and setting methods depends on 
the heater being used. Therefore, consult with your OMRON 
representative before using a heater with varying resistance values.

Halogen Heater Resistance Fluctuation Example
In the following example, burnout of one element in a six-element 
heater can be detected at a control level of 20 mA, but detection is not 
possible due to the effect of fluctuating resistance if the control level 
is any lower.
