3. Preparation for use
• Place the device horizontally on a stable, non-metallic surface.
• Ensure that the device’s ventilation slots are free at all times and that it can
suck in cold air on the ground.
• Connect the mains plug to a suitable power supply.
• The roller bearing to be heated is placed horizontally in the centre of the
IH 025 VOLCANO induction heater’s step-shaped support cone.
• If you are going to operate the device in TEMP MODE, connect the tempe-
rature probe with the helix cable to the left side of the device. Make sure
the polarity of the plug is correct.
• Use the holding magnets in the measuring head of the temperature probe
as a quick and easy way of checking whether the workpiece is made of
ferritic metal (= magnetic) and therefore can be heated optimally using the
simatherm IH 025 induction heater.
• The magnetic measuring head of the temperature probe is placed on
the inner ring of the roller bearing or the innermost point of the ring. The
temperature probe is only used in TEMP MODE. When heating a work-
piece in TIME MODE, the probe is not required and does not need to be
connected.
