Distinguishing features

• Remote control panel
To improve the ease of use and to help reduce the risk of contact with the hot
bearing during operation, the TIH 100m heater is supplied with a remote
control panel which can be detached from the heater.
• Inductive coil
When heated the workpiece is located at the same position on the core as the
inductive coil. This design improves efficiency, resulting in less power
consumption and faster heating, which reduces the cost to heat each bearing.
• Folding bearing supports
To support large bearings positioned around the inductive coil, the TIH 100m
induction heater is fitted with folding bearing supports. See the illustrations at
the beginning of this manual.
• Swivel yoke
To facilitate the handling of the yoke while placing the bearing around the
inductive coil or around the top yoke, the TIH 100m is fitted with a swivel arm
for the large yoke.
• Yoke storage
All three yokes can be stored inside the heater. The two yoke storages are
located behind the folding bearing supports. The small and medium yokes are
stored together in one yoke storage. The large yoke is stored alone in the
other yoke storage. See the illustrations at the beginning of this manual.

DESCRIPTION

The operation of the heater is controlled by the internal electronics in either of two
modes. The operator can either select the desired temperature of the bearing in
TEMP MODE or set the length of time that the bearing will be heated in TIME
MODE. The power level can be adjusted to 100% or 50% for slower heating of
sensitive workpieces (for example, bearings with C1 or C2 clearance).

Components

The TIH 100m induction heater contains a U-shaped iron core with an inductive
coil surrounding one of the vertical supports. A detachable remote control panel is
included. The remote control electronics and the internal electronics, control the
operation of the heater. A removable yoke on the top of the vertical supports,
allows the workpiece to be placed onto the heater. The largest of the three yokes
can swivel around its vertical post. To accommodate smaller workpieces, two
smaller yokes are also provided.
A temperature probe is included with the heater. Heat-resistant gloves are also
included.
