11.3 POWERBLANKET warming equipment
The kit tanks can also be kept warm by using blankets from
“Power Blanket”. These blankets are better at maintaining the
heat in a more evenly distributed fashion than the “heat bands”.
These could be used to warm up slightly cold product with
intermittent rocking or agitation. Colder tanks < 50°F should
be warmed up only by transferring to a warm area 75°F-90°F
(24°C-32°C) for a period of time with intermittent rocking or
agitation. Power Blanket products can be bought by contacting

11.4 Glas-Col Power Control Description and Operation
The Glas-Col Minitrol is a manually adjusted power control of
percentage timer designed for use with the Power Blanket.
Minitrol is designed to proportion full output power 5.5% to
100% of time depending on the dial setting. The “Off ” position
positively breaks both sides of the line .
The control can be used on any non-inductive fused resistance
load up to 15 amps and 120 volts. Smaller fuses may be used for
protection of very small loads. Simply plug device into a 3-wire
outlet of the control and insert plug of Minitrol cord into a wall
receptacle. The pilot light is connected across the output side of
the control and indicates power to the load.
Minitrol’s operation and control is adjusted by the operator and
does not utilize a sensing element. After a desired temperature
has been determined on the initial run, a simple resetting of the
dial offers control for repeat operations. This control effectively
regulates heating mantles, tapes and cords. Minitrol may also
be used for small furnaces or ovens, hot plates, dies or other
applications requiring infinite control. The control should not
be exposed to ambient temperatures above 125°F (52°C).
In addition to Minitrol, stock is maintained on variable
transformers and automated controls. Write to the address
