Fts turbo-jet thermal conditioning system -80C to +230C
FTS Turbo-Jet Thermal Conditioning System -80C to +230C
We powered this system up and programmed it as directed in the manual. We tested all the way to -70 C and +230 C with manual controls, then ran a program sequence for photos (shown at +220 C and -65 C set points). Temperature control was very tight, easily within the programmed tolerance band. Heating is extremely fast, and cooling is similarly fast, although it does cool a little slower once the temperature falls into -50 to -60 territory. We verified that the Turbo-Jet will control via an external thermocouple (not included) and the pneumatic raising/lowering of the air output arm works. The Emergency Stop button works. No other testing was done
