Abstract
A temperature control system comprises a heat sink heatable upon application of electric power thereto, an AC power source for heating the heat sink, temperature detector means for detecting the temperature of the heat sink, and control means for controlling the electric power applied to the heat sink in accordance with an output signal from the detector means so that the heat sink maintains its required temperature. The control means is operable to cause application of a full power of the power source to the heat sink at the initial heating stage thereof and application of a partial power of the power source to the heat sink when the temperature thereof is in the vicinity of the required temperature.
