4. INSTALLATION
•
Remove the packaging and place the induction heater on a non-ferrous, stable and level
surface. Put heaters with wheels on the brake to prevent the heaters from moving.
•
A Timken heater is supplied with yokes, temperature sensor, heat-resistant gloves (suitable up
to 250°C / 482°F) and acid-free grease.
•
Check the connection voltage against the rating plate on the unit.
•
Each heater is equipped with a plug. As there is a wide variety of plug types, the provided
plug may not fit. In such cases, obtain a proper plug. It must be fitted by a qualified electrician.
There are different fitting options depending on the type of cable on the heater:
Fitting options VHIN-G2-10, VHIN-G2-35, VHIS-G2-75 and VHIS-G2-100

•
Ensure that the power supply cable cannot come into contact with the workpiece to be
heated. Insert the plug in a grounded socket outlet with connection.
•
Switch on the device by means of the main switch. The machine briefly shows "Test", and the
display shows a "pre-set end temperature" programmed by the manufacturer.
•
Connect the temperature sensor by inserting the plug into the socket. Make sure that the –
and + of the plug correspond to that of the socket.
•
The induction heater is now ready for use in the temperature mode.
