The temperature probe can be checked by reducing the temperature at the tip to less than +5˚C. This can be done using a cold spray or equivalent method. If the system is working correctly the primary heater circuit should activate once the probe drops below this temperature. Within the ProMinder controller is a test button (see page 7) which forces the controller to activate the heater circuits. Holding this button down should briefly activate the primary circuit and then the secondary circuit. This will repeat as long as the button is held down. The current flowing through each heating circuit is checked by the controller when the test button is pressed. If the measured current is outside the cable specification the corresponding fault indicator will light. Alternatively, if the cable specification is correct, after 1 to 2 minutes of continuously holding the test button the heating cable should be noticeably warmer than ambient conditions.
