Huber CC with Pilot One Refrigerated Heating Circulation Bath

The circulators are split into two product lines, the CC-models and the simpler KISS models. Both product lines represent classically constructed laboratory circulators with open baths. Baths and circulators for heating applications up to +300 °C are available, as well as models for heating and cooling applications from -90 °C to +200 °C. Immersion or bridge circulators are suitable for thermal control of existing baths. The Ministat, the smallest cooling and heating circulator in the world, is the first choice for operation in fume-hoods or integrating into systems.

Refrigeration bath circulators are suitable for controlling the temperature of externally connected applications and thermoregulation of objects directly in the thermostat bath. Typical applications are: photometers, refractometers, viscometers, double-jacketed reaction vessels, and autoclaves. The units can be used in mini-plants and kilo laboratories, for determining the freezing point, for deep temperature calibration, for petroleum tests, for temperature control of measuring devices and experimental setups as well as for materials testing and quality control. Depending on the model, the equipment is able to meet the highest demands; this is ensured by the professional range of functions available on the Pilot ONE controller, such as a color TFT display, programmer, Pt100 external probe connection, calibration, calendar/clock functions, autostart, RS232 interface as well as extensive safety and warning functions. One further plus point is the electronic upgrade for function extensions using a unit-specific e-grade code. This activates additional functions such as the programmer, TAC cascade controlling, temperature ramps, user menus, calendar start, graphic display, and process control. The units are made from high-quality stainless steel and have a thermoregulated cover plate to avoid condensation and build-up of ice. The bath vessel has a volume of 5 liters and can be emptied via the drain fitting over the front.

Huber Pilot One Controller

The new multi-touch controller Pilot ONE offers a brilliant 5.7" touchscreen with graphic functions and a comfortable navigation menu. All important operating parameters and temperature values are neatly displayed on the touchscreen.

Thanks to the new favorites menu, the one-click operation and the integrated technical glossary the operation is very easy, just like on a smartphone. Integrated USB and Ethernet ports allow connection to a PC or network, e.g. for remote control or data transmission.

Huber Pilot One Communication

The Pilot ONE temperature controller has USB and LAN interfaces fitted as standard: Data can easily be stored directly onto a USB stick via the USB ports on the Pilot ONE. The USB port also allows connection to a PC or notebook. Together with the spy software, requirements such as remote control or data transmission are easy and cost-effective.

The built-in RJ45 Ethernet connection on the Pilot ONE controller allows easy integration of Huber temperature control systems into LAN networks. Remote control, data logging, or integration into process control systems is also straightforward.

Huber Pilot One Interface

The new Pilot ONE is plain-talking, gives user confidence, is easy to operate and keeps the user continuously informed of all relevant process data. The colorful LCD display shows all Pilot ONE information in plain text. Process temperature, internal (flow or jacket) temperature, pump pressure, and all safety-relevant information can be read easily and quickly. The display can be varied as required and in addition to a concise but comprehensive list of data, the most important information (set-point, actual, and internal/process temperature and Over Temperature limit) are shown in a larger format, making the essentials easier to read from a distance.

The temperature resolution can be displayed to 0.1 K or 0.01 K and the temperature can be viewed in Celsius or Fahrenheit format. Depending on the configuration of the system, the pressure is variable using the “VPC” (Variable Pressure Control) feature protecting against breakage, e.g. glass reactor. The parameters of the PID control system can be manually adjusted or with intelligent “TAC” (True Adaptive Control) – the self-optimizing cascade control is fully automated, ensuring tight control and the best results through highly dynamic responses. The “set-point limit” function, “Programmable alarms” and the user-defined alarm actions add further dimensions to safe working practices.

In the event of a problem, visual and audible alarms can be activated. The clock and calendar functions allow individual settings for “auto-start” in the event of power failure or a timed automatic commencement of a program. A calibrated function facilitates both off-set and span calibrations of the internal and (optional) process sensors. Depending on the software version, a digital and/or analogue interface records data.

Product Warranty Information:

Huber recommends only using thermofluids designed for Huber units and only distributed by Huber or Huber distributors. If any aftermarket fluids are used then it has to be ensured that the fluid which will be used is compatible with the materials within the system listed at any temperatures, and the fluid documentation shows the required specifications (e.g. viscosity). The only way this is proven is by testing however if a failure occurs due to the chosen fluid then it WILL NOT be covered under warranty.

Huber can only guarantee proper operation with Huber thermofluids and therefore recommend to use the ones in above link.

If there is any failure on the unit related to a non-Huber thermofluid it WILL NOT be covered under warranty.
