4 Unit description
4.1 Environmental conditions
The operation of the thermostats is only allowed under the following conditions as specified in
DIN EN 61010-2-010:2003 and DIN EN 61010-1:2001:
Indoor use only.
Elevation up to 2000 m above sea level.
Foundation must be dense, even, non-slippery and non-flammable.
Ambient temperatures range (11 Technical data).
Use only within this range for an undisturbed operation.
Mains supply voltage fluctuations (11 Technical data).
Relative humidity (11 Technical data):
Transient over voltage according to Installation Categories (Over voltage Categories) II.
Pollution degree: 2.
4.2 Device types
The type designation of the Proline Low-Temperature Thermostats comprises the prefix R (to
designate the refrigeration machine), a P for Proline, the bath volume in liters and the lowest bath
temperature (guide figure without arithmetic sign).
Examples: RP 855 is a low-temperature thermostat with 8-liter bath and -55 °C minimum
temperature.
RP 1845 is a low-temperature thermostat with 18-liter bath and -45 °C minimum
temperature.
4.3 Varioflex pump
All units are fitted with a Varioflex pump with an 8-stage variable drive. The pump power can therefore
be optimally matched to the relevant task: High pump pressure when, for example, long hoses pass to
external loads or circulation is to be provided for a large bath. Low pressure when the heat input into
the bath must be low.
As a pressure/suction pump, the Varioflex pump enables the very effective supply of pressure-
sensitive glass reactors, which have a minimum permissible pressure rating.
Furthermore, open vessels can be operated when a constant level controller (accessory LCZ 0660) is
used.
At the right-hand side and at the back of the unit outflow and inflow nozzles are fitted for external
loads. This means that up to two external loads can be directly connected without a distributor.
Connections, which are not required, must be closed off with the supplied caps and union nuts.
A bypass valve can subdivide the total volume flow variably between the bath (internally) and the
connected load (externally). Consequently, no "pump short circuit" is needed. If no load is connected
to the pump connector, the bypass valve must be set to the “internal”position for the best bath
circulation.
In the heating range, the Varioflex pump operates up to viscosity values of 150 mm²/s. In the closed-
loop control mode 50 mm²/s should not be exceeded. The temperature control is the best with
30 mm²/s and lower viscosity.
With small bath coolers (e.g. RP 845) power level 1 to 3 is practicable.

Proline Edition X cooling thermostats
YACE0100/ October 4, 2018 Unit description 17
For operation as a circulating thermostat with an external load, a higher power level is practicable to
maintain the temperature difference low, among other things also with higher temperatures in
conjunction with oils as heat transfer liquid.
The pump connections on the unit are fitted with M16 x 1 thread.
Pump characteristics (Section 11).
The pump outflows of the Varioflex pump can be closed off without any impairment to the pump. Here,
the "internal" setting of the bypass controller is recommended.
4.4 Materials
All parts being exposed to the heat transfer liquid are made of high quality material appropriate to the
operating temperature. Non-rusting stainless steel and high quality temperature-resistant, primarily
solvent-resistant plastics are used.
4.5 Temperature display, control and safety circuit
In the Master Version, the units are equipped with a 5-character green LED display, which is used for the
display of the measurements and settings, as well as the operating status. The entry of setpoints and
other settings occurs under menu guidance via four keys.
The extra features of the Command Version include a removable console with a backlit graphical
display. The entry of the setpoint and other settings occurs under menu guidance via situation-
dependent cursor keys and soft keys.
A Pt100 temperature probe acquires the outflow temperature in the bath. A high-resolution A/D converter
processes the measurement. Further measurement conditioning occurs using a special control algorithm
for controlling the heater actuator, which has a low reactive effect on the mains, and the SmartCool
refrigeration equipment together with further transducers.
An external Pt100 can be connected via a socket (10S) for the acquisition of an external temperature.
This value can be displayed and, if required, used as the controlled variable with external control
(Master) switched on. In this way, the system controls the external measurement and not the outflow
temperature (7.7.4).
The safety system conforms to DIN EN 61010-2-010. The SelfCheck Assistant monitors about 50 unit
parameters. A dual-channel system is used in which two microcontrollers monitor one another. Along
with the bath temperature measurement and control probes, there are also two safety temperature
probes (Pt100) for the safety circuit for the overtemperature cut-off and for monitoring the bath
temperature probe.
The overtemperature cut-off point is displayed on pressing the key on the Master.
Changing the overtemperature cut-off point: (7.2 Switching on) on page 26.
The bath level is acquired by the SelfCheck Assistant in 8 stages. A permanent display is provided only
with the Command remote control. If the minimum level is undercut, the pump, heater and the
SmartCool System refrigerating machine are switched off. The reaction of the thermostat in case of
overfill can be set to simply display a warning, to display a warning and switch off the heater or to switch
off the unit completely with pump, heater and SmartCool System refrigerating machine.
When the level is too low, with overtemperature, or with other alarms the SelfCheck Assistant switches
the heater off on all poles. The pump and the refrigerating machine are also switched off.
This switch-off under fault conditions is retained, i.e. after the fault is rectified, the fault must be reset
(released) on the Master operating panel with the key.
Other unit functions are described in the appropriate sections and in Section 7. (Starting up).

4.9 Cooling unit
The refrigerating machine mainly consists of one or two fully hermetically sealed compressors. The
heat from the condensation process and the motor is dissipated via a lamellar condenser. Here, fresh
air is drawn in at the front of the unit, heated towards the back and output at the side. To ensure proper
air circulation the ventilation slots must not be restricted. See Section 6.1.
The coolers of the Proline Series are equipped with the SmartCool technology which makes optimum
use of the compressor and only then cools when refrigerating capacity is demanded by the controller.
To achieve this, a number of sensors in the cooling circuit monitor the operating conditions.
The compressors are equipped with overtemperature cutouts, which respond to the compressor
temperature and the compressor current consumption. In addition, the refrigeration system is backed
up by a pressure control device against over pressure. The cooling unit is normally switched in
automatically, but can be switched manually via the operating menu. (Section 7.6 with Command
and with Master).
When the fault circuit trips, the cooling unit is also switched off.
Cooling curves (Section 11).
4.10 Avoidance of dewing
In order to avoid dewing on the edge of the bath when using the low temperature thermostats RP 855,
RP 870, RP 890 and RP 1290, these instruments are equipped with a device for heating the edge of
the bath, using the waste heat of the cooling unit.
As a standard feature, the minimum temperature thermostats RP 890 and RP 1290 are equipped with
an additional electric heating of the bath bridge. This can be ordered as an option for RP 855 and
RP 870.
With the bath covers of the minimum temperature thermostats, RP 890 and RP 1290, it is possible, by
means of a nipple, to let nitrogen or dry air into the bath with a low volume flow.
4.11 Heater rating and power consumption from the mains
The Proline Low-Temperature Thermostats have an extraordinarily high heater rating of 3.5 kW
maximum. If your mains fuse is rated below 16 A, the current consumption can be reduced in steps
from 16 A to 10 A (7.7.5). The maximum heater rating of 3.5 kW is then, of course, also reduced
accordingly.
