VI. GENERAL DESCRIPTION 

 

Torrey Pines Scientific IC20 units are Peltier driven for chilling & heating.  They come with a 
universal power supply and the chilling/heating module.   The units have only one moving 
part, the DC fan that cools the unit.  Everything else is solid state and should last years 
without problem.  All functions of the unit are accessible from the front panel via the 
membrane switch and accompanying digital display.  
 
 
HEATER/CHILLER PLATE 
 
The surface is a very flat aluminum plate designed for good contact with any flat surfaced 
item placed on it.  The plate size of the IC20 is 2.875" (73 mm) x 4.375" (111 mm). It will 
chill and heat quickly without a load on it.  The temperature of the plate is sensed by a 
platinum RTD mounted under the plate.  The temperature controller in the unit compares 
the plate temperature with the target temperature and instructs the Peltier module to heat 
or chill the plate as required to keep them equal. 
 
 
TIMER 
 
All units have a countdown timer reading in hours, minutes, and seconds.  It can be set to a 
maximum of 99 hours 59min 59sec.  The timer will be displayed at the same time as the 
SET POINT and PLATE TEMP.  It has a user settable AUTO-OFF as well.  This works to 
turn the chiller/heater target temperature off when the timer counts to zero.   
 
ALARM 

 

The units have an audible alarm that sounds for one minute when the timer counts down to 
zero.  Touching the UP ARROW will turn the alarm off during this first minute.  However, if 
the alarm sounds for the entire minute, it will shut-off the sound automatically.  When the 
alarm first sounds, the timer will start to count up.  This lets the user know how much time 
has passed since the timer first sounded. 
 
DATA LOGGER 

 

The units are supplied with a built-in data logger.  The data logger can be made to collect 
up to 27,000 data points in intervals of 1/second, 1/minute, or one every 5 minutes.  See 
the instructions later for use. 
 
NON-VOLATILE MEMORY 
 
The units are equipped with EEPROM memory that will store user settings such as the last 
set point, MENU options, user changed calibration points, and logged data points.  The 
stored values will be recalled each time the unit powers up to maintain the configuration of 
the previous session.
