The EKT 3001 and 3001 G are electronic temperature controllers for liquids. Used together
with magnetic stirrers and heating appliances, they are designed to replace conventional
mercury contact thermometers in the laboratory.
The microprocessor controlled electronics is responsible for the control functions and en-
sures high linearity and measuring accuracy. Integrated fuzzy control guarantees an opti-
mum heating-up speed without overshooting of the desired temperature.
Thanks to the flexible sensor/controller connection, it is possible to position the controller
away from the area at risk from heat and fumes.
The temperature controller is protected in several ways:
• Fuse for sensor short-circuiting
• Fuse for sensor breakage
• Safety and control circuit to DIN 12878 Class 1 and 2
During operation, the sensor and cable are checked constantly for interruptions and short-
circuiting. If a fault is discovered, the heating is switched off and the fault indicated in the
display.
Please comply with all safety and accident-prevention regulations as in force
for laboratory work !
Use extra care when working with flammable substances; refer to safety data
sheets.
The sensor comes into contact with hot liquids. Hold the sensor only by its
plastic grip.
Repair work is limited to technicians approved by Heidolph Instruments.
Use extra care when working in the vicinity of flammable and explosive sub-
stances. The item itself is not explosion-protected.
