RESISTRON
RES controllers
are electrical resistance-measuring,
temperature regulating units. They use the characteristics
of certain heatseal elements that change their resistance
in a fixed ratio to the change in temperature.
This characteristic of the heating element is expressed by
its temperature coefficient T .
For a dependable temperature control the heating
element must have a coefficient of T
+8 10 K .
The resistance is constantly monitored (50 times per
second with 50 Hz; 60 times/second with 60 Hz) by

2. PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION
measuring the current through the element and the
applied voltage. This information is fed back to the
controller as the process variable "PV". It is also supplied
for display on the temperature meter. After comparing this
information with the set point "SP", the controller adjusts
the voltage output to the heating element so that it will
always maintain the desired temperature (resistance).
Voltage control is accomplished by phase-angle-control
of the primary current going to the transformer.
The high response feed back facilitates extremely fast
temperature changes.
