Configuración e instalación
Proper installation is crucial for the safe and effective operation of the temperature controller. Ensure all power is disconnected before proceeding with wiring.
1. PID Controller Dimensions and Mounting

The controller has a standard dimensional size of 45mm x 45mm for panel mounting. Ensure adequate space for ventilation and wiring connections.
2. Wiring the PID Controller
Refer to the wiring diagram on the back of the controller for terminal connections. The controller supports K, E, and J type thermocouple inputs and provides both SSR and relay control outputs.

- Power Supply (1, 2): Connect AC 100-240V, 50/60Hz.
- SSR Output (3, 9): Connect to the input terminals of the Solid State Relay.
- Alarm Output (7, 8): Connect to an external alarm device (AC220V/DC30V 3A resistive load).
- Thermocouple Input (11, 12): Connect the K-type thermocouple. Ensure correct polarity (+ to 12, - to 11).
3. Wiring the Solid State Relay (SSR)
The SSR-25DA is used to control the heating element. Mount the SSR onto the provided heat sink to prevent overheating. Connect the SSR to the PID controller and the heating load as shown in the diagram.

- SSR Input (3, 4): Connect to the SSR output terminals (3 and 9) of the PID controller. Input voltage: 3-32 VDC.
- SSR Load (1, 2): Connect the AC power supply (24-380VAC) and the heating element. Terminal 1 for fire wire, Terminal 2 for zero line.
Atención: For DC control AC applications, if the closed state leakage current is less than 5mA, special scenarios may not be applicable. Please exercise caution.
Instrucións de funcionamento
The PID controller features a digital display and several buttons for setting parameters and monitoring the temperature.

Sección de visualización
- PV (Measured Value) Display: Mostra a temperatura medida actualmente.
- SV (Setting Value) Display: Shows the set temperature or parameter setting value.
- Indicador OUT: Lights up when the control output is ON.
- Indicador AT: Blinks when the self-tuning (Auto-Tune) function is active.
- Indicador AL1: Lights up when the corresponding alarm output is ON.
Teclas de control
- Tecla MODE: Used to enter parameter settings and return to operation. Press to flip down between mode parameters and store set values.
- Tecla Maiús (<): Úsase para o cambio de díxitos durante o axuste do valor.
- Decrease Key (v): Decreases the setting value. Holding for 3 seconds may activate a shortcut mode.
- Increase Key (^): Increases the setting value. Holding for 3 seconds may activate a shortcut mode.
Axuste da temperatura
- In normal operation mode, the SV display shows the set temperature.
- Usa o Decrease (v) e Increase (^) teclas para axustar a temperatura desexada.
- O Maiús (<) key can be used to move the cursor to adjust specific digits.
- The controller will automatically save the new set value after a short period of inactivity or by pressing the MODO chave.
Parameter Settings and Auto-Tune
To access advanced parameters or initiate the auto-tune function, refer to the detailed programming guide (usually provided separately or accessible via specific key combinations). The AT indicator will blink during auto-tuning.
The controller supports both Celsius (℃) and Fahrenheit (℉) display. This setting can typically be changed within the parameter menu.
Mantemento
The SINOTIMER PID Temperature Controller Kit is designed for reliable operation with minimal maintenance. Follow these guidelines to ensure longevity:
- Limpeza: Keep the controller's display and buttons clean using a soft, dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Ambiente: Ensure the operating environment is within the specified temperature and humidity ranges. Avoid excessive dust, moisture, and corrosive gases.
- Conexións: Periodically check all wiring connections for tightness and signs of wear or corrosion. Ensure the heat sink for the SSR is free from obstructions and dust to maintain efficient cooling.
- Termopar: Inspect the thermocouple for physical damage or signs of degradation. Replace if necessary to maintain accurate temperature readings.
Resolución de problemas
If you encounter issues with your PID Temperature Controller Kit, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problema | Causa posible | Solución |
|---|---|---|
| O controlador non se acende. | Sen subministración de enerxía ou cableado incorrecto. | Check power connections (terminals 1 & 2). Ensure AC 100-240V is supplied. |
| Temperature reading is inaccurate or "HHHH" / "LLLL" displayed. | Thermocouple disconnected, reversed polarity, or faulty. | Verify thermocouple connection (terminals 11 & 12) and polarity. Replace thermocouple if damaged. |
| Heater does not turn on/off. | SSR wiring incorrect, SSR faulty, or controller output issue. | Check SSR input wiring from controller (terminals 3 & 9). Verify SSR load wiring (terminals 1 & 2). Test SSR functionality if possible. Ensure controller output (OUT indicator) is active. |
| Controller not maintaining set temperature. | Incorrect PID parameters or insufficient heating/cooling capacity. | Perform auto-tune (AT function) to optimize PID parameters. Ensure the heating element is adequately sized for the application. |
