• Accurately detects a burned heater element or elements incor-
porated by a molding machine or packing machine and outputs
an alarm signal.
• Precisely singles out the burned element even if one heater el-
ement among several heater elements has been burned out.
• Applicable to small- to large-capacity heater elements.
• All K2CU-F large-capacity, built-in current transformer models
work with both single-phase and three-phase heaters.
• Voltage fluctuation compensation function eliminates false
alarms due to variations in the supply voltage.

so, use a temperature controller with a voltage output.

K2CU
Operation
K2CU-F@@A-@GS Series
When power is supplied to the heater (when the SSR is ON), a cur-
rent flows through the wires to the heater elements. At the same
time, a voltage is imposed on the gate circuit and the K2CU-
F@@A@GS begins monitoring the current flowing through the heater
wires.
The current flowing to the heater wires is detected by the detector
sections through each Current Transformer (CT) incorporated by the
K2CU-F@@A-@GS.
The current signals transmitted by the two CTs are sent to the cur-
rent-voltage converters, smoothing circuits, and comparators as
shown in the diagram.
Power supply
The signal generated by the reference voltage generator is sent to
the setting circuit to provide a reference value. The reference value is
sent to the comparators. Each comparator compares its heater ele-
ment current input and the reference value. If the input is lower than
the reference value, a signal is sent to the output circuit.
There are two detector sections operating independently. If either of
the input signals from the CTs is lower than the reference value, the
output relay and alarm indicator will be activated.
The K2CU-F@@A-@GS incorporates a voltage fluctuation compen-
sation function which automatically corrects the reference value if the
supply voltage fluctuates.

K2CU
K2CU-F Series
When power is supplied to the heater (when the contactor is ON), a
current flows through the wires to the heater elements. At the same
time, a voltage is imposed on the power circuit of the K2CU-F.
The current flowing to the heater wires is detected by the detector
sections through each Current Transformer (CT) incorporated by the
K2CU-F.
The current signals transmitted by the two CTs are sent to the cur-
rent-voltage converters, smoothing circuits, and comparators as

Setting of Operating Current
Use the potentiometer on the front panel to set the operating current.
Rotate the knob to set the desired current value at which the Heater
Burnout Detector should operate. Do not exceed the maximum and
minimum positions.
The K2CU-F’s scale is divided into 12 graduations including sub-
graduations and the K2CU-P’s scale is divided into 5 graduations.

The knobs of the K2CU-F and K2CU-P as shown in the illustrations
are set to 32 A and 0.7 A respectively.
The set operating current is defined as the mean value of the heater
current under normal operating conditions and the heater current
under a burnout or abnormal condition.
