Display of the controller status

If the reference value is higher than the actual value the heating is switched on. In the top
left-hand corner of the display a small rectangle travels from left to right (symbol for
heating). As soon as the FUZZY logic is activated and switches the heating off in advance,
the symbol goes out.
Modern magnetic stirrers have their own controlling function for the surface temperature of
the hotplate. This internal control of the magnetic stirrers always has priority.

Safety function "NO SENSR"

If the temperature sensor is not immersed in the medium, the safety shutdown is activated
after 3 mins and the heater on the magnetic stirrer is turned off . "NO SENSR" is shown on
the EKT display.
If the message "NO SENSR" appears with the temperature sensor immersed in the
medium, see "Troubleshooting" on page 26.

When the temperature of the measuring range is exceeded (+300 °C), "HI" appears on the

Monitoring the sensor

If the sensor function is interrupted, "HI" appears on the display; if there is a sensor short
circuit, "Lo" appears on the display.
