1. Product Description
1.1 Function
In control and monitoring mode, the unit regulates connected heaters to a given set-point (i.e.
target temperature). Monitoring is done based on preset temperature limits. If a limit is
exceeded or is not reached, potential-free contacts are switched (K3). The unit can be
configured for four different types of controller in the factory.

The controller can be configured for various types of controllers in the factory. Depending on the
type of controller, the outputs may have different functions. The following types of controller are
available from the factory:
•2-position controller (conventional or PID) with hysteresis (normal case)
•PID-controller with PWM (= Pulse-Width-Modulation) output (quasi-continuous)
•PID-continuous controller
Where there are differences in the outputs, you will find the abbreviations ‘2-position’, ‘PID-PWM’
and ‘PID-cont.’ in Table 1.

3. General Safety Instructions
3.1 Proper use
In its standard configuration, the temperature controller ELT-GP 2 is a two-position controller
used to control electric heaters. The controller also indicates temperature deviations of the
heater and any faults which may occur in the temperature probes used for this purpose. Any
other use above and beyond that is deemed improper use. Your temperature controller is
state of the art and has been built in compliance with recognized safety regulations. Its
assembly and use can nevertheless constitute a hazard to persons or cause impairment of the
unit and other material damage. The temperature controller must only be used when it is in
technically perfect working order, for the purpose for which it is intended, in awareness of all
safety and hazard aspects and in compliance with the information given in the User's Manual.
3.2 Hazards of electrical power
Work on electrical equipment must only be done by a qualified electrician or by duly trained
personnel under the instruction and supervision of a qualified electrician, in accordance with
all applicable electrical standards and regulations.
3.3 Modifications to the temperature controller
Do not modify the equipment or the software without the manufacturer's prior authorization.
Failure to comply will render all warranty claims null and void and we cannot give any
guarantees for trouble-free operation of the controller.

4. Installation
4.1 Mounting
The housing is designed for wall mounting. Drill four holes, ∅4 mm, using the mounting template.
Attach housing with screws (not included). Glands are directed downwards.
4.2 Installation
Read chapter 3 ‘General Safety Instructions’ carefully prior to installation.
MORTAL DANGER!
Before connecting the mains lead, you must switch off all power to the complete control
cabinet!
First connect the ground conductor (green-yellow colour-coding) to the unit. Then connect the live
wires. Connect all necessary conductors (see chapter 2.4 ‘Terminal Connection Plan’).
Before putting the unit into operation, check that all contact screws at the terminal strips are
tight!

5. Settings and Operation
All position numbers given here refer to Figure 1 in chapter. 2.2 ‘Controls And Displays’.
5.1 Setting the temperature set-point (Target Temperature)
•With the help of a screwdriver, or similar, briefly tap the control key (Pos. 3). The
controller is now in setup mode for the setting the set-point
•Adjust the set-point by turning the potentiometer (Pos. 1).
•Tap the control key (Pos. 3) again to take over the set-point which you have just set.
The turning range of the potentiometer corresponds with the preset temperature control
range. Example: Temperature range: 0°C – 200°C; Left limit stop of the poti: 0°C; Right limit
stop of the poti: 200°C
5.2 Setting the bottom and top temperature limits (Low Limit and High Limit)
The temperature limits are set by means of a touch-combination of the control key (Pos. 3).
Whilst setting is being done, the two bottom LED`s (‘HEAT, ALARM’; Pos. 5 and 6) indicate the
respective setting status. Setting is done as follows:
•Press the control key (Pos. 3) for approx. 3 seconds. The controller switches to limit input
mode.
•When the input mode is active, the two bottom LED`s (Pos. 5 and 6) light up.
•Press the control key (Pos. 3) briefly. The LED ‘HEAT’ (Pos. 5) lights up continuously and the
LED ‘ALARM’ (Pos. 6) flashes.
•Set the bottom temperature limit (Low Limit) by turning the potentiometer (Pos. 1).
•Press the control key (Pos. 3) briefly. The limit which has been set (Low Limit) is
automatically stored by the controller.
•The LED ‘HEAT’ (Pos. 5) now flashes and the LED ‘ALARM’ (Pos. 6) lights up continuously.
•Now set the top temperature limit (High Limit) by turning the potentiometer (Pos. 1).
•After setting, press the control key (Pos. 3) again briefly. Both LED`s (‘HEAT, ALARM’, Pos.
5 and 6) light up continuously.
•The controller is now in input mode for inputting the temperature set-point. After setting
the temperature limits, the set-point has to be reset (see chapter 5.1 ‘Setting The
Temperature Set-Point’).
•Tap the control key (Pos. 3). again briefly. The newly set values are now stored and taken
over by the controller. The controller has now returned to control and monitoring status
(normal status).
Whilst setting is being done, the controller continues to work in control and monitoring mode.
After you have set the temperature limits, monitoring of the bottom temperature limit (Low Limit) is
stopped until the actual temperature initially reaches the bottom temperature limit (Low Limit) or
exceeds.

6. Optional Features
6.1 Other housing designs
Another housing model is available for ELT-GP1 for connection of heaters with two cold ends,
which has the necessary Pg-cable glands.
6.2 Digital temperature display (ELT-ONA)
The three-digit temperature display is limited to a range of -51 to +870 °C .
The following settings are displayed with the digital display module:
-Actual temperature of the heater.
-Temperature set-point and bottom (Low Limit) or top (High Limit) temperature limit in the
respective setting mode of the controller (see chapter 5 ‘Settings And Operation’).
-Error messages:
Digital display flashes:
Bottom or top temperature limit (Low Limit, High Limit) not
reached or exceeded respectively.
E01:
Short in the temperature probe
(for Pt100 only)
E02:
Conductor broken in the temperature probe
Install the digital temperature display as follows:
Before you install the digital temperature display in the controller, disconnect the controller
from the power supply.
•Remove the transparent cover of the housing.
•Screw the front plate off the controller.
•Insert the additional PCB in the space provided for it (see Fig. 4). Proceed with extreme
caution when doing so. Make sure that none of the plug connections are bent or damaged.
•After putting it into place, secure the PCB with locking screws at the threaded bolts
provided for this purpose on the PCB.
•Now screw the new front plate with window onto the controller.
6.3 Analogue Output (ELT-OAA)
When retrofitting an analogue output, we will supply you with the required plug-in board.
To install the plug-in board, proceed as described in chapter 6.2 ‘Digital Temperature Display’!
After installation, the connections are active for analogue output (Terminals 17, 18 and 19, see
‘Terminal Connection Plan’).
