TEMPERATURE CONTROL SYSTEM FOR HIGH TEMPERATURE OPERATION,
Abstract
A continuous proportioning control system for two-cell high-temperature operation was designed and is used in transmittance measurements of optical materials at 100, 200, 300, and 400 C. A modified Loyola LC-2 4-KVA Power Manipulator, operating in conjunction with a Wheelco 407P Capacitrol, provides the controlled power to the parallel-connected cells. The Wheelco, electronically sensing a temperature differential, produces a proportional DC voltage that is applied to the input of the Loyola unit. The Loyola puts out an AC voltage at the load terminals that is proportional to the DC input voltage. The system makes it possible to establish rapidly and precisely a given temperature level in the two high-temperature cells. The system can be readily adapted to other applications, providing a precise control of high temperatures coupled with ease of operation. (Author)
