UPT-6011
Version 5
Slowly increase the correction factor, starting either with the lowest value (50%) or with the value recommended
in the ROPEX Application Report minus 25%, until the actual temperature at the end of the heating impulse cor-
responds to the set temperature.
The correction factor should be checked, and if necessary corrected, whenever the machine is operated or the set
temperature or the sealing time is changed.
8.7.10 Maximum start temperature
You can set the required maximum start temperature in the parameter data. This temperature is the maximum
allowable actual value at the start time. The value is determined by the controller at the start of each impulse and
compared with the set value.
This function serves to monitor the cooling circuit.
If the cooling system is intact, curve 1) applies. If the cooling system is faulty, curve 2) applies instead because
the water is no longer cooled. The temperature never falls below the value set with this menu step. In this case,
the controller ignores the next heatup command. Error code 305 appears and the alarm relay is switched
(
section 8.19 "Error messages" on page 67). The idea is to prevent the UPT sealing bar from being destroyed.
The maximum value of the setting range is limited by the specified maximum value and the set temperature range.
Both values are selected in the parameter data.
Setting:
It is advisable not to set this parameter until you have determined the optimum heatsealing parameters (temper-
ature and cooling time) for production. The start temperature should be set to approximately 50% of the heat-
sealing temperature for the trial run, to enable the optimum working parameters to be established correctly.
8.7.11 Temperature diagnosis
An additional temperature diagnosis can be activated in the parameter data (EDS file). The UPT-6011 checks
whether the actual temperature is within a settable tolerance band ("OK" window) either side of the set tempera-
Temp.
