performance from the equipment and for your
own safety, please read these instructions
carefully before use. Before discarding the
packaging check that all parts are present and

General Description
The Cole-Parmer TC-200D temperature controller
is the ideal instrument for the accurate
temperature control of aqueous and oil based
samples in the laboratory. The TC-200D can be
used in two different modes; as a precise
temperature controller from 20 to 200°C or as a
digital thermometer from -4 to 325°C. With
digital setting and display of temperature, the
TC-200D temperature controller is accurate to
±0.5°C.
The TC-200D is compatible with the following
Cole-Parmer hotplates and hotplate stirrers:
HP-200-S, SHP-200-S, SHP-200D-S, HP-200-C,
SHP-200-C, SHP-200D-C, SC162.
Safety Advice before use
If the equipment is not used in the
manner described in this manual and
with accessories other than those
recommended by Antylia Scientific the
protection provided might be impaired.
This equipment is designed to operate under the
following conditions: -
❖ For indoor use only
❖ Use in a well ventilated area
❖ Ambient temperature range +5°C to +40°C
❖ Altitude to 2000m
❖ Relative humidity not exceeding 80%
❖ Use with a minimum distance all around of
200mm from walls or other items.
❖ Never move or carry the unit when in use or
connected to the hotplate.
❖ Do not use in a hazardous atmospheres or
with hazardous materials
Preparation for use
To use the TC-200D temperature controller with
either a metal top or ceramic top hotplate, place
the hotplate on a firm, level surface.
Open the jaws of the retort clamp on the rear of
the TC-200D temperature controller by turning
the clamp knob anticlockwise. The clamp can be
used with retort rods from 9.5mm to 13mm
diameter. Slide the TC-200D on to the retort rod
and tighten by turning the clamp knob
clockwise.
Note: DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN
Connect the TC-200D controller plug to the DIN
probe socket at the rear of the hotplate (Figures
1 and 4).
Connect the probe plug to the probe socket at
the rear of the controller (Figures 2 and 4). To
ensure the best connection, tighten the locking
collar on the plug by turning clockwise.
Connect the mains supply lead to the IEC socket
at the rear of the hotplate and switch on at the
mains. Where the unit has a mains on/off switch,
switch the unit on using this switch.
To switch on the TC-200D temperature controller,
turn the heat control knob on the hotplate
clockwise (Figure 3).
Note: The controller power is supplied by
the hotplate
The TC-200D temperature controller and
hotplate are now ready for use. Correct
communication between the TC-200D
temperature controller and the hotplate is
indicated by the illuminated amber contact
thermometer indicator on the front panel of the
hotplate.
Note: The hotplate and controller will
perform an automatic self-test at switch on,
before the current temperature of the probe
is displayed. The factory default set
temperature is 20°C.
