ROPEX® RESISTRON® RES-401

Impulse Sealing Controller – In-Cabinet

This ROPEX Resistron temperature controller is an integral part of the "Series 400", the outstanding feature of which is its microprocessor technology. All Resistron temperature controllers are used to control the temperature of heating elements (heatsealing bands, beaded bands, cutting wires, heatsealing blades, solder elements etc.), as required in a variety of heatsealing processes. The controller is most commonly used for impulse heatsealing PE films in:

Vertical and horizontal f/f/s machines
Pouch, filling and sealing machines
Film wrapping machines
Pouch-making machines
Group packaging machines

The use of Resistron temperature controllers results in:

Repeatable quality of the impulse heat seals under any conditions
Increased machine capacity
Extended life of the heatsealing bands and PTFE coatings
Simple operation and control of the sealing process

Description of the Controller

The microprocessor technology endows the Resistron temperature controller RES-401 with previously unattainable capabilities:

Very simple operation thanks to AUTOCAL, the automatic zero calibration function.
Good dynamic response of the control system thanks to AUTOTUNE, which adapts automatically to the controlled system.
High precision thanks to further improved control accuracy and linearization of the heatsealing band characteristic.
High flexibility: The AUTORANGE function (as of October 2005) covers a secondary voltage range from 0.4V to 120V and a current range from 30A to 500A.
Automatic adjustment to the line frequency in the range from 47Hz…63Hz.
Increased protection against dangerous conditions, such as overheating of the heatsealing band.

The ACTUAL temperature of the heatsealing band is supplied to an analog 0…10VDC output. The real heatsealing band temperature can thus be displayed on an external temperature indicator (e.g. ATR-3).

The Resistron temperature controller RES-401 features an integrated fault diagnosis function, which tests both the external system (heatsealing band, wiring etc.) and the internal electronics and indicates a fault by means of the LED.

To increase operational safety and interference immunity, all 24VDC logic signals are electrically isolated from the controller and the heating circuit.

The compact design of the Resistron temperature controller RES-401 and the plug-in connections make this controller easy to install.
