4.0 RESPONSIBILITIES
Engineering & Dye House managers are accountable in ensuring that the work instruction is fully
implemented.
The Engineering Manager is responsible for ensuring only qualified electricians or engineers are
permitted to carry out these activities with the machines. All care by management and employees is to
be taken with the Coats approved PPE worn at all times.
The Dyehouse Manager has a duty of care to ensure the engineers are wearing appropriate PPE and
following Coats safety protocols.

The Production Manager is required to enforce the safety protocols are respected and met at all times.
5.0 DEFINITIONS
Depending on machine types two-four PT100’s are located on each dye machine, two PT100’s are
connected either side of the heat exchanger at the base of the main kier and the secondary connection is
located at the base of the stock tank. In all instances it is important to check the measurements and
settings of all PT100’s.
5.2 PROFIBUS
The Profibus16 and Profibus 32 are part of the modular design that enable Sedomat controllers to use
either their own I/O, remote I/O or an optimization of the two interface with the PT100’s. These peripheral
modules connect to the controllers using a PROFIBUS DP interface and offer both digital and analogue
inputs and outputs, see diagram 2.0.
Each machine will have two Profibus, one for the main kier and one for the stock tank.

PROFIBUS (Process Field Bus) is a standard for field bus communication in automation.
PROFIBUS DP is a worldwide accepted standard field bus for the connection of inputs, outputs,
frequency inverters, PLC components, sensors, valves, remote displays etc.
The Profibus components are also susceptible to errors caused from external conditions, such as
temperature fluctuations, humidity, electrical interference and poorly located cabling from the PT100 to
the controller. It is therefore recommended a review of the accuracy of measurement is checked a
minimum of twice per year.
Additional checks can be completed when the following conditions are encountered;
1. When a new machine is received on site, a precautionary check routine is required.
2. When a machine is showing a progressive decline in performance.
3. Where a machine is consistently showing thinner or fuller results when compared with similar
sized machines.
4. During preventative maintenance – a mandatory function.

It is mandatory for all dyehouses to retain a digital record of all calibration checks and will be audited
during any planned peer review. An example a typical record is available in the above “software
requirements on page 4.
5.3 DECADE BOX
Decade boxes are passive devices used to verify the accuracy of test equipment. The name “decade” is
a term used to describe the values which are arranged in the form of “decades”. Decade values are set
up in factors, stepped such that any value zero through to nine can be selected.
Resistance may have a 5 Ohms resistor, a 2 Ohms resistor and two 1 Ohms resistors in the first decade.
Some decade boxes may have 6 or more decades to allow for a wider range and highly precise values.
Decade boxes are characterised by their range, maximum resolution, and accuracy, see diagram 2.0.
An eight digit Decade Box starting at 0.01 Ohms to 100k Ohms provides the most appropriate values for
more accurate calibration routines and can be purchased for approximately USD $1,000. Reputable local
suppliers should be identified in each region, see diagram 4.0.
The “Decade Box” function is used to compare the hardware outputs (PT100) linear resistance values to
the software inputs (controller values) temperature readings. For example, a PT100’s Ohm resistance of
138.50 should reflect a temperature of 100°Celsius. Using the Oms/Temp. on page 4, “software
requirements. Scale the software configuration within the controller can be adjusted to compensate for
any variation.

Note: Engineering are qualified to identify what each type of machines is configured. The configuration
varies and is not standardised across all machines.
6.0 PROCESS
Note: It is recommended the Profibus is removed from the controller to complete a calibration procedure.
This is also a health and safety requirement. To carry out a calibration of the Profibus requires a spare
Profibus controller.
6. Introduction
Calibrations of temperature control devices is a crucial practice required by all sites. The impact of good
practices of temperature control will have an immediate impact on Coats Colour Stitch absorption
coefficients and therefore recipe improvement/corrections.

Using the table below review each Ohms/Temperature adjust the Decade box and record the values
to establish whether a calibration is required or not. It is imperative to record all the values of the pre
and post checking routines.
Where the values are equal to the desired temperature (column 1) a calibration is not required.

Note: Where the temperature exceeds the desired temperature means the actual temperature in
the machine is below the desired temperature. For example if the Ohms value is set to
151.71/135°C and the reading on the controller interface is 138°C (+3°C) the true/actual
temperature in the machines is 132°C.
Conversely, if the temperature is below the set temperature, the actual temperature in the
machine is higher than the set temperature.
The above example confirms the calibration routine was effective (column 4).
6.6.2. From the Sedo controller, identify the IP address of the controller to ensure the correct
controller is targeted.
Note: Each controller has a unique IP address.

Install the software onto any PC which is software compatible and connect the USB cable to the
docking station.
Place the DataLogger into the thermos-shield and secure the device into the machine. The device
must be covered by water to record the temperature accurately.
Once the dyeing process is complete, place the Data Logger into the docking station and download
the batch details. The time and temperature will display on screen.
Print the time and temperature graph from the appropriate Sedo or Adaptive software and compare
the temperatures between the machine and the Data Logger.
Where the temperatures are +/- 1°C, no action is required and the calibration is deemed a success.
