Sensor correcting temperature regulator for electric heating apparatuses

Abstract

An electronic regulator (12) for electric heating apparatuses, such as baking ovens (11), is equipped with a microcontroller (20), which contains in fixed programmed form the process data for the individual regulating functions. For adapting the real data of a temperature sensor (19) to the ideal conditions, e.g. in the center of a baking oven muffle (14) is provided a separate, non-volatile, but programmable memory (EEPROM) (26). It can be programmed from a personal computer (34) by means of a read-in connection (32), said computer determining the parameters by comparing the values of the standard temperature sensor (19) and separate temperature sensors (36) located at ideal points. The memory (26) can be differently programmed for individual operating modes.
