Operating Procedures: PhoenixTM Data Logger (Trailing Method)
1. Preparation
Battery: Install two (2) fresh AA Alkaline batteries to ensure consistent power throughout the process.
Hardware Inspection: Verify that the Anodized Aluminum chassis and all thermocouple probes are in perfect condition and free from damage.
Software Setup: Configure the sampling interval to 1 second (or as required) within the software to ensure high-resolution data capture.
2. Setup
Probe Attachment: Securely fasten the probe tips to the Critical Points on the test product.
Logger Positioning: Place the data logger in a safe zone where the ambient temperature remains below 80°C (e.g., at the furnace entrance or a designated safety area).
Cable Management: Organize the thermocouple leads to prevent tangling; ensure there is sufficient cable length to traverse the entire length of the furnace without restriction.
3. Execution
Start Recording: Press the start button and confirm the system status via the LED indicator.
The Process: Load the product into the furnace while carefully feeding the trailing cables to follow the product’s movement.
Completion: Once the product has fully exited the furnace, stop the recording and retrieve the equipment immediately.
4. Data Analysis
Download: Connect the logger via USB to transfer the recorded data into the Thermal View software.
Verification: Cross-check the recorded values against the ±0.3°C high-precision accuracy specified in the Calibration Certificate.
Reporting: Generate a comprehensive Heat Profile report compliant with international quality standards, including CQI-12.
💡 Pro-Tips & Warnings:
Cable Tension: Monitor the trailing leads closely; ensure they are not pulled taut during the process to avoid damage to the connectors or inaccurate readings.
Surface Maintenance: Always wipe the Anodized Aluminum surface clean after each use. This prevents chemical buildup and significantly extends the lifespan of the instrument.
Operating Procedures: PhoenixTM Data Logger (Thru-Process Method)
1. Preparation
Battery: Verify that two (2) AA Alkaline batteries have sufficient power for the entire duration of the run.
Thermal Barrier: Inspect the condition of the heat shield and the silicone gaskets. Ensure they are clean and free from tears to maintain a perfect thermal seal.
Software Setup: Configure the sampling interval to 5 seconds and verify available memory (the device supports up to 3.800,000 data points).
2. Setup & Assembly
Probes: Attach the thermocouple probes securely to the test product and connect them to the PTM1-006 Compact amd PTM1200-LT logger.
Protection: Place the logger inside the Thermal Barrier. Cross-check that the oven temperature and cycle time align with the barrier’s specifications. (Recommended maximum operating temperature: 250°C).
Thermal Duration Reference Table:
| Oven Temperature (°C) | * The data below shows the thermal duration (hours) at each operating oven temperature. | ||
| TS04-113-3 (6ch) | TS04-113-5 (10ch) | TS04-135-1 (20ch) | |
| 100°C | 7.5 hours | 10 hours | 16 hours |
| 150°C | 3.5 hours | 5.0 hours | 7.0 hours |
| 200°C | 2.2 hours | 3.0 hours | 4.8 hours |
| 250°C | 1.6 hours | 2.0 hours | 3.8 hours |
| 300°C | 1.6 hours | 1.5 hours | 3.0 hours |
Heatsink: If using a model equipped with a heatsink, ensure it is in normal condition (not swollen or deformed) before use.
Sealing: Secure the latches of the barrier tightly. Ensure the thermocouple leads are neatly positioned and not pinched or crushed by the lid.
3. Execution
Start Recording: Press the ‘Start’ button and verify the LED status before closing the thermal barrier.
Through Oven: Place the assembled thermal barrier onto the conveyor or alongside the product as it enters the oven.
Monitoring: Closely monitor the residence time of the equipment inside the oven to ensure it does not exceed the rated Thermal Duration.
4. Recovery & Analysis
Retrieval: Upon exiting the oven, always wear heat-resistant gloves to retrieve the barrier. (Caution: The external surface will be extremely hot).
Cooling Protocol: Remove the data logger from the thermal barrier immediately to prevent “heat soak” (post-process heat transfer). Allow the barrier to cool down naturally in the air. (Never submerge the hot barrier in water).
Data Analysis: Connect the logger via USB to download data into the analysis software. Verify the results against CQI-9, CQI-12, or AMS2750 standards using the high-precision ± 0.3°C.
💡 Critical Maintenance Tips:
Surface Cleaning: After each cycle, wipe the Anodized Aluminum surface of the logger to remove any chemical residue or dust.
Inspection: Always perform a visual inspection of the Thermal Barrier and gaskets after cooling to ensure the system is ready for the next cycle.
