Cleaning advice
Daily usage of your SERIES-B DNA 75W could
cause soilings, especially by deposits of dirt
particles and liquid inside the 510
–
connector.
These could lead to contact problems which
can compromise correct resitance reading.
Therefore we recommend to clean your device
from time to time.
For this firstly remove the battery an atomizer.
Than clean the 510
–
connector with a lint-free
cleaning rag. In case of heavy soilings you can
moisten the cleaning rag with a tiny amount of
alcohol.
Please don’t use any pointed objec
ts to clean
the spring-loaded centerpin and avoid direct
contact to fluids which could permeate the
housing of the device.
Advanced Operating
Temperature control
Temperature controlled vaping is a complex
issue. We would like to try to explain to you
some important basics in order to avoid
problems.
Why temperature controlled vaping?
The food flavourings contained in e-Liquids
develop different flavours at different
temperatures. You can imagine it as cold or
lukewarm cola. The taste will vary depending on
the temperature of the beverage. It is now also
known that high temperatures may cause
undesirable side effects.
With a functioning temperature controlled setup
dry hits (bad or nonexistent liquid flow to the
heating coil which will cause a very unpleasant
taste) are effectively excluded. So you can use
an atomizer without a window to the last drop
of liquid.
To use the temperature control, you need an
atomizer with a heating wire, which has a high
temperature coefficient.
Due to the high temperature coefficient, the
resistance of the wire is increased as soon as
the coil is heated. It is necessary for the atomizer
to be at room temperature to calibrate, so that
on the basis of resistance changes the
SERIES-B DNA 75W can determine the
temperature of the heating coil.
Please ensure that the wraps of the coil do not
touch and the contacts of the 510 port and
within the atomizer used are clean. Corrosion or
contamination of a contact area can lead to low
resistance variations, which are then
erroneously interpreted by the electronics as
temperature changes. Therefore, all contacts
should be cleaned regularly with alcohol.
With the SERIES-B DNA 75W you can find the
optimum temperature and thus the optimum
flavour.
Wire types
The thickness of the wire determines how
quickly the coil reaches the set temperature.
You can compensate for the deficiency of a
sluggish coil with higher power, but this also
increases the power consumption. Also you will
require different wire for different types of
atomizer for example a Dripper has a different
process.
Especially the temperature coefficient is crucial
for the accuracy of temperature control.
This value describes how much the resistance
of the heating wire changes with increasing or
decreasing temperature. In delivery conditions
the SERIES-B DNA 75W provides profiles for
Nickel 200, SS 316 and Titanium heating wires.
By using the ‘EScribe‘ Software it is possible to
create custom wire types with personalised
temperature coefficient, thus you will be able to
use specialized wires. We recommend the
Dicodes Resistherm NiFe30 heating wire
(TK: 320•10
-5
K
-1
) or the Golden Greek Zirconium
heating wire (TK: 100•10
-5
K
-1
).
Calibration
During calibration, the zero point of the
measurement is accurately determined. As with
a speedometer in a car, when at rest it must
show 0 mph. If the calibration is not carefully
carried out a reliable measurement of the
temperature is impossible.
The SERIES-B DNA 75W has automatic or
manual calibration. We recommend auto-
calibrating the coil. It is important that the
atomizer is at room temperature at the time
of calibration (eg. 20 °C).
