<p>A power control arrangement for controlling the power output of a resistive heating element of the type having a fast thermal response time and a highly variable resistance with temperature. The power control arrangement includes a plurality of operator selectable power settings and an electronic switching system responsive to operator selection of these settings to rapidly couple and decouple a power supply to the element. The switching action is selected to permit rapid heat up of the element without causing an unacceptable current to flow and to prevent excessive cooling of the element after it reaches operating temperatures during steady state operation.</p> |
