ROPEX® RESISTRON® RES-408

Impulse Sealing Controller – In-Cabinet

The ROPEX Resistron RES-408 is a high response heat seal temperature controller that will deliver precisely repeatable sealing temperature every cycle in either impulse or constant heat mode. Cabinet mounted, with a panel mounted keypad, menu driven LED display and DIN rail mounting clamp. Valuable features include; Remote Start for Heat and Pre-heat with 24VDC signal. Analog Temperature feedback (0-10VDC) provides control, display or Datalogger record. Error Diagnosis makes trouble shooting a snap and the optional Booster Output feature permits extra high power applications.

Perfect for validation because seal time and temperature can be sampled or continuously recorded on the optional companion Datalogger.

Resistron Controllers achieve perfect high response control by utilizing the unique qualities of the TOSS Alloy-20® Heatseal Band to provide instantaneous temperature feedback to the controller. Power is adjusted 60 times per second to assure that the actual temperature is always equal to the preselected set point.

Additional RES-400 Series Controllers are available for in-cabinet as well as panel mounted applications.

Description of the Controller

The microprocessor technology endows the Resistron temperature controller RES-408 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 June 2006) 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 to 63Hz.
Increased protection against dangerous conditions, such as overheating of the heatsealing band.

The temperature can be set on the separate T-408-1 (or T-400) operator terminal. The real heatsealing band temperature is also visualized on the operator terminal.

The RES-408 Resistron temperature controller features an integrated fault diagnosis function, which tests both the external system (heatsealing band, wiring etc.) and the internal electronics and outputs a selective error message in case of a fault.

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

Coding switches on the temperature controller itself can be used to adapt to different heatsealing band alloys (TOSS Alloy-20, NOREX etc.) and set the required temperature range (0...300°C, 0...500°C etc.) on all controllers manufactured as of June 2006.

The compact design of the RES-408 Resistron temperature controller and the plug-in connections make this controller easy to install.
