Hi,

I have the aluminum heatbed off ebay, mK3 design. I bought a 24v 350 watt power supply and SSR for control. I want to this bed to heat up ASAP and stay EVEN heat as well as bed stay FLAT. These have been my issues with borosilicate and PCB heated MK2a.

Anyway, the bed came with an NTC 10k thermistor B57621C103K62, I am about to solder it to my bed and run the thermistor leads to my ramps.

My question is, what thermistor table do I use in my configuration.h?


Here is the comments





//================================================== =========================

//
//--NORMAL IS 4.7kohm PULLUP!-- 1kohm pullup can be used on hotend sensor, using correct resistor and table

//// Temperature sensor settings:
// -2 is thermocouple with MAX6675 (only for sensor 0)

// 0 is not used
// 1 is 100k thermistor - best choice for EPCOS 100k (4.7k pullup)

// 3 is Mendel-parts thermistor (4.7k pullup)
// 4 is 10k thermistor !! do not use it for a hotend. It gives bad resolution at high temp. !!
// 5 is 100K thermistor - ATC Semitec 104GT-2 (Used in ParCan & J-Head) (4.7k pullup)

Right now I am using a standard bulb style thermistor. It works ok but I want to use the NTC 100k. Which number is it out of that list above? How do I get the new thermistor to read properly?






Second question. My bed resistance is showing 9.2 ohms for the 24v circuit and 6 ohms for the 12v circuit. Isnt this a little high? The bed was bought brand new off ebay from a private seller. No soldering has even taken place on the flats yet. Suggestions appreciated





Thanks!!
