4. Setup u Installazzjoni
4.1 Installazzjoni Fiżika
The PID controller is designed for panel mounting. Ensure the mounting hole dimensions are 45mm x 45mm. The heat sink should be securely attached to the SSR 40DA to prevent overheating.

Figure 4.2: Dimensions of the heat sink (80x50x50mm) and the M6 K-type screw thermocouple (2m cable length).
4.2 Dijagramma tal-Wiring
WARNING: Ensure all power is disconnected before performing any wiring. Incorrect wiring can lead to equipment damage or personal injury. If you are unsure, consult a qualified electrician.
Refer to the wiring diagrams below for proper connection of the PID controller, SSR, and thermocouple. The controller requires AC 100-240V power supply.
Figure 4.3: Back panel of the PID controller showing terminal assignments for power (1, 2), SSR output (3, 4), alarm output (5, 6), and thermocouple input (11, 12).
Figura 4.4: Eżample physical wiring diagram for connecting the SSR 40DA to the PID controller and a heating element. Terminals 1 and 2 on the SSR connect to the AC load (heater), and terminals 3 and 4 connect to the DC control output (3-32VDC) from the PID controller.
Noti tal-Wajers:
- Connect the K-Type Thermocouple to terminals 11 and 12. Ensure correct polarity (positive to 12, negative to 11).
- Connect the main AC power supply (100-240V) to terminals 1 and 2 of the PID controller.
- Connect the SSR control output from the PID controller (terminals 3 and 4) to the input terminals (3-32VDC) of the SSR 40DA.
- Connect the AC load (e.g., heater) to the output terminals (24-380VAC) of the SSR 40DA.
- The alarm output (terminals 5 and 6) can be connected to an external alarm device if required.
5. Istruzzjonijiet Operattivi
5.1 Display u Panel tal-Kontroll
The front panel of the PID controller features a digital display and control buttons:
Figure 5.1: Front panel layout of the SINOTIMER PID Temperature Controller, indicating PV/SV displays, control indicators, and function keys.
- PV (Process Value) Display: Shows the current measured temperature.
- SV (Set Value) Display: Shows the target temperature or parameter setting value.
- Indikatur OUT: Lights up when the control output (to SSR) is ON.
- Indikatur AT: Blinks when the self-tuning function is active.
- AL1 Indicator: Lights up when the alarm output is ON.
- Ċavetta MODE: Used to enter parameter settings and navigate between modes. Press and hold to store set values.
- Shift Key (<): Used for digit shifting during value adjustment.
- Decrease Key (↓): Used to decrease values.
- Increase Key (↑): Used to increase values.
5.2 Setting the Target Temperature (SV)
- In normal operation mode, the upper display shows PV (current temperature) and the lower display shows SV (target temperature).
- Uża l- Increase (↑) u Decrease (↓) keys to adjust the SV to your desired temperature.
- Uża l- Shift (<) key to move the cursor between digits for faster adjustment.
- The new SV will be automatically saved after a few seconds of inactivity or by pressing the MODALITÀ ċavetta.
5.3 Advanced Parameter Settings
To access advanced settings (e.g., PID parameters, alarm settings, input type, unit selection), press and hold the MODALITÀ key for several seconds. Use the MODALITÀ key to cycle through parameters, and the Shift (<), Increase (↑), u Decrease (↓) keys to adjust values. Refer to the detailed parameter list in the full product manual for specific functions and ranges.
6. Manutenzjoni
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your PID temperature controller kit.

- Spezzjoni: Regularly check all wiring connections for tightness and signs of wear or damage. Ensure the thermocouple is securely in place and free from corrosion.
- Sink tas-Sħana: Verify that the heat sink on the SSR is free from dust and debris to ensure efficient heat dissipation.
- Ambjent: Ensure the controller is operated within its specified environmental conditions (temperature, humidity) to prevent malfunction.
7 Issolvi l-problemi
If you encounter issues with your PID temperature controller, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problema | Kawża Possibbli | Soluzzjoni |
|---|---|---|
| Il-kontrollur ma jixgħelx | Ebda provvista tal-enerġija; wajers mhux korretti | Check power connections (terminals 1 & 2); ensure power source is active. |
| Id-displej tal-PV juri 'HHHH' jew 'LLLL' | Thermocouple open circuit or reverse connection; temperature exceeds range | Check thermocouple wiring and polarity; ensure it's within operating range. |
| Output (OUT indicator) not activating | SV not set correctly; PID parameters incorrect; SSR faulty | Verify SV is below PV (for heating); check PID settings; test SSR functionality. |
| Temperature unstable or overshoots | Parametri PID mhux ottimizzati | Perform auto-tuning (AT function) or manually adjust PID parameters. |
If the problem persists after attempting these solutions, please contact SINOTIMER customer support for further assistance.
