Symptoms: Hot runner temperature controller fails to cool down properly, and related error messages are typically displayed on the PV screen.
1. Broken heating element wiring.
2. Burned-out heating element.
1. Check the wiring: Inspect the wiring in the hot runner temperature control box for any breaks, loose connections, or faults.
2. Check and replace the heating element: If the heating element is damaged, replace it with a new one.
Symptoms: The PV screen displays "HI" with an accompanying alarm sound.
1. The measured temperature exceeds the upper setpoint by a significant margin.
2. Interference from other heat sources.
1. Switch to manual mode: Switch to manual control and reduce the power output percentage (AN) to lower the temperature.
2. Stop injection and wait for cooling: Halt the injection process and allow the system to cool down to within the set limits.
3. Reduce heat source interference: Check for nearby heat sources that may be causing interference and minimize or eliminate them.
Symptoms: The PV screen displays "HHH" and triggers an alarm.
1. A broken thermocouple causing a high positive voltage input signal.
2. The temperature controller is not properly outputting to the heating element.
Solutions:
1. Check or replace the thermocouple: Inspect the thermocouple for any faults or disconnections. Replace it if necessary.
2. Check the heating element wiring: Ensure that the wiring between the temperature controller and heating element is properly connected and functional.
Symptoms: The PV screen displays "LLL" and triggers an alarm.
1. The thermocouple is wired incorrectly, causing a negative input signal that exceeds the measurable range.
1. Reconnect the thermocouple correctly: Ensure that the thermocouple is connected with the correct polarity, ensuring the input signal stays within the acceptable range.
These are common solutions for hot runner temperature controller issues. In cases of more complex problems, it's advisable to consult a professional technician for assistance.
