Temperature control circulator device

Abstract

A temperature control circulator device for fluidic temperature control that can connect to auxiliary heaters and pump to increase the available heating power and temperature control effectiveness of the temperature control circulator device in when dealing with large fluid volumes. The system can control the auxiliary heaters and pumps and the auxiliary devices may have sensors that feed back to the temperature control circulator device for more precise control of the fluid bath. The system also has a bottom perforated removable housing with a flow or directionally and flow adjustable pump system.

1 . A temperature control circulator device for maintaining a liquid at a constant temperature comprising of a controller, the device comprising:
 a display communicatively coupled to the controller;   at least one sensor communicatively coupled to the controller;   at least one heater communicatively coupled to the controller;   an electric motor including at least one output shaft having at least one impeller communicatively coupled to the controller;   a top housing encasing at least one of the controller, the display, and the motor; and   a bottom removable perforated housing at least partially enclosing the at least one sensor, the at least one heater and the at least one motor output shaft,   the device connectable to external auxiliary heaters and auxiliary pumps, said auxiliary heaters and pumps being controllable by the device.   
     
     
         2 . The temperature control circulator device of  claim 1 , further comprising a plurality of connection ports or wireless radios configured to supply control signals from the controller to the external auxiliary heaters and auxiliary pumps. 
     
     
         3 . The temperature control circulator device of  claim 1 , wherein the auxiliary heaters and auxiliary pumps are configured to contain additional sensors to enable enhanced control of the liquid. 
     
     
         4 . The temperature control circulator device of  claim 1 , wherein the auxiliary heaters and auxiliary pumps are housed in a perforated enclosure. 
     
     
         5 . The temperature control circulator device of  claim 1 , wherein the bottom removable perforated housing houses at least a portion of the at least one motorized impeller. 
     
     
         6 . The temperature control circulator device of  claim 1 , wherein bottom removable perforated housing includes an attachable rotatable enclosure housing at least a portion of the at least one impeller. 
     
     
         7 . The temperature control circulator device of  claim 6 , wherein the attachable rotatable enclosure includes at least one opening, openable and closable by rotating at least one of the top housing and the bottom removable perforated housing. 
     
     
         8 . The temperature control circulator device of  claim 1 , wherein the controller can calculate the time the device requires to cause the liquid to reach a certain temperature by analyzing at least one of a wattage, the liquid temperature and time trends associated with the liquid. 
     
     
         9 . The temperature control circulator device of  claim 1 , wherein the controller has a multifunction timer that can be selected either to shut off the device at the end of a specified time or raise an alarm without shutting off the device.
