2. Product Overview and Features

The KETOTEK KT1000 is a digital temperature controller equipped with a 2-meter waterproof NTC sensor. It features two relays, allowing simultaneous connection of heating and cooling devices. The controller operates in an on/off control mode, automatically switching between heating and cooling to maintain a desired temperature range.

Key Features:

• 2m Waterproof Probe: Suitable for use in moist and aquatic environments.
• Dual Relay Output: Connect both a heater and a cooler simultaneously (10A/110-220VAC for each).
• Automatic Heating/Cooling Switch: Maintains temperature within set parameters.
• High Accuracy: Temperature control accuracy of ±1°F.
• Wide Temperature Range: -58°F to 212°F (-50°C to 99°C).
• Multi-functional: Supports temperature calibration, compressor delay protection, and alarm functions for temperature exceeding limits or sensor errors.
• Parameter Memory: All settings are saved after restart.

4. Safety Information

Please observe the following safety precautions to prevent injury or damage to the device:

• Ensure the power supply voltage matches the controller's requirements (110VAC).
• All wiring should be performed by a qualified electrician or knowledgeable individual.
• Disconnect power before making any wiring connections or performing maintenance.
• Do not exceed the maximum current rating of 10A for each relay output.
• Install the controller in a dry, well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures, unless the sensor is specifically designed for such environments.
• Ensure proper grounding for all connected devices.
• Keep the device away from children.

5. Setup and Wiring

The KETOTEK KT1000 requires wiring to a power source and to your heating and cooling loads. It does not have direct voltage output; you must connect an additional power supply for the loads.

Wiring Diagram Overview:

The controller has 8 terminals for connections:

• Terminals 1 & 2: Power Supply Input (110VAC)
• Terminals 3 & 4: NTC Sensor Input
• Terminals 5 & 6: Heating Output Relay (NO - Normally Open)
• Terminals 7 & 8: Cooling Output Relay (NO - Normally Open)

There are typically two main connection methods depending on whether the loads share the same power supply as the controller or have independent power supplies.

Image 5.1: Detailed wiring diagrams for the KETOTEK KT1000, illustrating connections for independent load power supply, shared load power supply, and AC power supply with three wires (Line, Neutral, Earth).

Connection 1: Independent Power Supply for Loads

In this configuration, the controller and the heating/cooling loads each have their own power supply. This provides isolation and can be useful for higher power loads or specific electrical setups.

Connection 2: Same Power Supply for Loads

This is a common setup where the controller and both heating and cooling loads are powered from a single 110V AC source. Ensure the total current draw of your loads does not exceed the controller's relay ratings (10A per relay).

Connection 3: Wire with Three Wires (AC Power Supply)

This diagram illustrates a standard AC power supply connection including Line (L), Neutral (N), and Earth (E) for safety and proper grounding.

Important: Always ensure power is disconnected before performing any wiring. Incorrect wiring can cause damage to the device or pose a safety hazard.

Button Functions:

• Power Key (⏻): Power On/Off. Confirm setting value. Save and Exit function.
• Up Key (▲): Choose parameter. Increase value. Check setting temperature value.
• Down Key (▼): Choose parameter. Decrease value. Check setting difference value.
• Set Key (S): Entry, Exit, and Set parameters.

Setting the Temperature:

1. Press the 'S' button briefly. The display will show the current set temperature.
2. Use the 'Up' (▲) or 'Down' (▼) buttons to adjust the desired temperature set point.
3. Press the 'S' button again to confirm and save the setting.

Setting Parameters (P0-P6):

To access advanced parameters, press and hold the 'S' button for approximately 3 seconds until 'P0' appears on the display.

How to Set Parameters:

1. Press and hold the 'S' button for 3 seconds to enter parameter setting mode.
2. Use the 'Up' (▲) or 'Down' (▼) buttons to navigate between parameters (P0-P6).
3. Once the desired parameter (e.g., P0) is displayed, press 'S' again to view its current value.
4. Use the 'Up' (▲) or 'Down' (▼) buttons to change the value.
5. Press 'S' to confirm the new value and move to the next parameter, or press the 'Power' (⏻) button to save all changes and exit.

7. Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and accuracy of your KETOTEK KT1000 Digital Temperature Controller.

• Cleaning: Wipe the controller's display and casing with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Sensor Care: While the sensor is waterproof, avoid unnecessary physical stress or sharp bends to the cable. Periodically check the sensor cable for any signs of damage.
• Connections: Periodically inspect all wiring connections to ensure they are secure and free from corrosion.
• Environment: Ensure the controller is installed in an environment within its specified operating conditions (temperature and humidity).
