1 Introduction
The T10 Temperature Controller is used for the control of the heating systems DH 9006
(standard) and DH 9008 (miniature) for use with micro dispensing valves P-Dot and P-Jet.
The following operating instructions will enable you to easily set-up the temperature
controller by explaining only the more important basic functions first. Additional and more
detailed instructions for a wider range of settings are available in the operating instructions
from the manufacturer, Panasonic.
2 Basic functions
The T10 Temperature Controller front panel display has indicators for the actual-value
and the set-value temperatures.
The set-value can be adjusted between 0°C to a maximum of 90°C.
Furthermore, theT10 Temperature Controller includes an alarm output, which provides
and electrical alarm signal when the temperature exceeds a preset temperature
deviation.
The controller offers an automatic self-optimising function, which allows the operator to
adjust the step response to the prevailing exterior conditions.
The regulating characteristic of the T10 is identical to the characteristics of a PID
Controller.

3 Start of Operation Instructions:
Connect temperature controller using enclosed power cable to power source, (24 VDC / 2.5 A / 7
pin Tuchel connector).
Connect heating system to temperature controller using 6 pin Tuchel connector.
After the electrical connections have been established, the controller performs an automatic a self-
diagnosis which lasts approximately 3 seconds. The Actual-Value Indicator displays the sensor
identification and the temperature. The Set-Value Indicator displays the upper limit of the
measuring range.
During self-diagnosis all controls and control indications are disabled, and only after a successful
diagnosis will the control process start, as well as Actual & Set-Values appear in the display.

3.3 Displays and Controls on the Front Panel
(1) Actual-Value Indicator (PV): The actual-value is
shown in red (PV = Process Value).
(2) Set-Value Indicator (SV): The set-value is shown
in green (SV = Set Value).
(3) Control Indicator SV1: The indication appears in
green, when the Set-Value (SV) is shown.
(4) Control Indicator SV2: No value assigned.
(5) Control Indicator Tx/Rx: In models with
communication functions, this indication will flash in
yellow, as long as data are transferred.
(6) Control Indicator OUT1: In the case the control
output or the heating current output are activated,
this indication is shown in green (it will be flashing
in the case of direct current output in intervals of
0.25 seconds).
(7) Control Indicator OUT2: In the case output OUT2
is activated, this indication appears in yellow.
(8) Control Indicator A1: When the alarm output A1 is
activated, this indication appears in red.
(9) Control Indicator EVT: When the warning output (outputA2 or the heating current alarm
output) is activated, this indication appears in red (EVT = event).
(10) Control Indicator AT: During self optimisation or auto reset this indication appears in yellow
(AT = Auto-Tuning).
(11) Increase Control: Increases numerical value.
(12) Decrease Control: Decreases numerical value.
(13) MODE: Alternates between parameters and stores the set-value.
(14) OUT/OFF: Depressing this key for about 1 second, deactivates the control output. (Depressing
the button again for about 1 second, reactivates the control output.)

4 Basic Adjustments:
Adjust Temperature Set-Value
Perform Self Optimisation
Adjust Alarm Value A1 (optional)
4.1 Adjustment of Temperature Set-Value (SV)
The temperature controller responds to any change of the Set-Value by changing the
regulating variable:
Depress key and appears in the display.
With the and buttons enter new set-value, i.e. 60.0
With button alternate between actual- or set-value indication mode.
4.2 Self Optimisation
During Self Optimisation (Auto-Tuning) or Offset-Correction (Auto-Reset) the values for
P-, I- and D- will be automatically readjusted.
Depress button until the actual- or set-value indication appears again.
Depress simultaneously + ,
appears at the actual value indicator (PV), - - - - at the set-value indicator (SV).
With button select (self-optimisation).
Depress button repeatedly until actual- or set-value indication reappears.
Self optimisation will start. When this process is finished, PID-regulation will start
automatically. During self optimisation the indicator AT flashes in yellow.
4.3 Adjustment of the alarm value A1
Depress button repeatedly until the actual- or set-value indication appears.
Depress simultaneously + button until appears at the Actual
Value indicator (PV).
Depress key several times until appears in the display.
With the or buttons enter temperature value at which alarm should be
triggered. This temperature value is a relative value and refers to the Set-Value
and is pre-adjusted to 5 degrees.

6 Safety rules
Safety rules
Make sure that the user of the temperature controller receives these operating instructions, in order to prevent
injuries and damage during use. These safety rules should be read carefully prior to the operation of this
product.
These safety rules differentiate between the two categories “Danger” and “Warning”:
DANGER: When improper handling may lead to personal injuries or property damage.
WARNING: When improper handling may lead to minor personal injuries or damage to the
equipment.
DANGER
In cases with an increased risk for accident, special safety precautions need to be met, for example
several ON-OFF operations or two-handed operation etc.
Danger of explosion! Never operate this temperature controller in the neighbourhood of flammable
gases.

WARNING:
Assure correct connection of electrical cables to prevent excessive heating and formation of smoke.
Obey the required operating and surrounding conditions to avoid excessive heating and formation of
smoke.
Do not touch electrical connections as long as the controller is powered up to avoid electrical shock.
Disassembling or altering the controller may lead to the danger of electrical shock or the formation of
smoke.
This piece of equipment should only be used in accordance with the purpose and the requirements of
the operating instructions. Improper use may cause malfunctions and possibly fire.
Obey the safety rules and directions of these operating instructions. Disregarding may lead to serious
injuries and other damage.
The contents of these operating instructions may be changed without prior notice.
This regulator is designed for installation into a control panel. If not installed, all electrical connections
and parts which operate under high voltage during operation must be protected against accidental
contact to prevent risk of electrical shock.
Cleaning of the regulator should only be carried out under power-off conditions.
Do not use solvents for cleaning, they may deform and discolour the controller.
Protect the sensitive display against the risk of contact with hard objects.
Without prior approval by LIQUIDYN GmbH copying in whole or in part as well as translations of these
