6 WATLOW Series 988 Enhanced Software Features

Sample Application

A Series 988 controller is used to heat lube oil to 125°F with a screw-plug-

style heater. To protect the oil from breaking down and maximize its life, it

is desirable to limit the maximum heater sheath temperature to 250° F.

The Series 988 is ordered with two thermocouple inputs. Input 2, the

inner loop in the cascade configuration, measures the heater sheath.

Input 1, the outer loop, measures the lube oil temperature before it leaves

the tank. The external set point is 125°. By setting range high 2 [`rH2] to

250° the set point for the heater sheath will be limited, thus extending the

lube oil life.
