Needle Heater 12-1
12 Needle Heater
The Needle Heater consists of a Temperature Controller and a Needle Heating Element that
attaches to the dispensing needle. The Needle Heating Element is selected for compatibility
with your valve or fluid pump (see Table 12-1). For Millennium Series and Century Series
C-708 AICE dispensing systems, the Temperature Controller is an integrated feature which
also controls the dispensing area heaters. For Century Series C-702 and C-708 dispensing
systems, the Temperature Controller is a non-integrated feature (see Figure 12-4).
Your service technician installs the Needle Heater as part of the dispensing system
installation or during an upgrade. This section describes the function and operation of the
Needle Heater.
The HT-1000 Temperature Controller controls one DC device, such as the Needle Heater
vacuum. The HT-2000 Temperature Controller is capable of controlling two AC devices
(such as a heated tooling plate and a radiant heat element), two DC devices (such as two
Needle Heating Elements), or one AC and one DC device.
