Sensors and sensor modules


The controller accepts up to a maximum of two sensor modules or two digital sensors (depending on
the controller configuration), along with one communication module. A single digital sensor and a
single sensor module can be installed in combination. A variety of sensors can be wired to the sensor
modules. Sensor wiring information is given in the specific sensor manuals and in the user
instructions for specific modules.
Relays outputs and signals
The controller has four configurable relay switches and two analog outputs. An optional analog
output module can increase the number of analog outputs to five.
Device scans
With two exceptions, the controller automatically scans for connected devices without user input
when it is powered on. The first exception is when the controller is powered on for the first time
before initial use. The second exception is after the controller configuration settings have been set to
their default values and the controller is powered on. In both cases, the controller first displays the
language, date and time edit screens. After the language, date and time entries are accepted, the
controller performs a device scan. Refer to Connect a digital sc sensor on page 20 for instructions
about how to scan for devices when the controller is already powered on.
Controller enclosure
The controller enclosure is NEMA 4X/IP66-rated and has a corrosion-resistant finish designed to
withstand corrosive environmental constituents such as salt spray and hydrogen sulfide. Protection
against environmental damage is strongly recommended for outdoor use.
Note: Units that have the Underwriters Laboratories (UL) certification are intended for indoor use only and do not
have a NEMA 4X/IP66 rating.
Controller mounting options
The controller can be mounted to a panel, to a wall or to a vertical or horizontal pipe. A neoprene
sealing gasket is included and can be used to reduce vibration. The gasket can be used as a
template for panel mounting before the inner gasket component is separated.

12 English
WARNING
Potential Electrocution Hazard. If this equipment is used outdoors or in potentially wet locations, a
Ground Fault Interrupt device must be used for connecting the equipment to its mains power source.

DANGER

Electrocution Hazard. Do not connect AC power to a 24 VDC powered model.

WARNING
Potential Electrocution Hazard. A protective earth (PE) ground connection is required for both
100-240 VAC and 24 VDC wiring applications. Failure to connect a good PE ground connection can
result in shock hazards and poor performance due to electromagnetic interferences. ALWAYS connect
a good PE ground to the controller terminal.

NOTICE
Install the device in a location and position that gives easy access to the disconnect device and its operation.

The controller can be purchased as either a 100-240 VAC powered model or a 24 VDC powered
model. Follow the appropriate wiring instructions for the purchased model.
The controller can be wired for line power by hard-wiring in conduit or wiring to a power cord.
Regardless of the wire used, the connections are made at the same terminals. A local disconnect
designed to meet local electrical code is required and must be identified for all types of installation. In
hard-wired applications, the power and safety ground service drops for the instrument must be 18 to
12 AWG. Make sure that the field wiring insulation is rated 80 °C (176 °F) minimum.
Notes:

• The voltage barrier must be removed before making any electrical connections. After making all
connections, replace the voltage barrier before closing the controller cover.
• A sealing type strain relief and a power cord less than 3 meters (10 feet) in length with three 18-
gauge conductors (including a safety ground wire) can be used to maintain the NEMA
4X/IP66 environmental rating.
• Controllers can be ordered with AC power cords pre-installed. Additional power cords may also be
ordered.
• The DC power source that supplies power to the 24 VDC powered controller must maintain
voltage regulation within the specified 24 VDC-15% +20% voltage limits. The DC power source
must also provide adequate protection against surges and line transients.

Wiring procedure
Refer to the illustrated steps that follow and Table 1 or Table 2 to wire the controller for power. Insert
each wire into the appropriate terminal until the insulation is seated against the connector with no
bare wire exposed. Tug gently after insertion to make sure that there is a secure connection. Seal
any unused openings in the controller box with conduit opening sealing plugs.

• Pulse Width Modulation Control Function (refer to Figure 24)

Option Description

Set mode Auto—the relay output works as a PID controller.


Manual—the signal is controlled by the user through manual adjustment of the % change
value. This option is shown as Manual Output after the manual set mode is selected.

Phase Reverses the leading sign of the control deviation for the PID controller (default: Reverse). The
phase selects whether the relay will operate at the first part of a cycle (direct phase) or the
second part (reverse phase).

Set setpoint Creates a setpoint value.

Dead zone The range above and below the setpoint. In this set range, the PID controller does not take
action to change the Pulse Width Modulation On/Off Ratio output signal until the limits of the
dead zone are reached.

Period Sets the cycle duration of the PWM output signal (default: 5 seconds).

Min width Sets the minimum PWM ratio (default: 1.0 second).

Max width Sets the maximum PWM ratio (default: 4.0 seconds).

Prop band Sets the proportional part of the PID controller. The proportional part of the controller supplies
an output signal which is linearly dependent to the control deviation. The proportional part
reacts on any changes at the input but starts to oscillate easily if the value is set high. The
proportional part cannot completely compensate for disturbances.

Integral Sets the integral part of the PID controller (default: 000 minutes). The integration part of the
controller supplies an output signal. The output signal increases linearly if the control deviation
is constant. The integration part responds slower than the proportional part and can completely
compensate disturbances. The higher the integration part, the slower it responds. If the
integration part is set too low, it starts to oscillate.

Option Description

Set mode Auto—The relay works as a PID controller.


Manual—the signal is controlled by the user through manual adjustment of the % change
value. This option is shown as Manual Output after the manual set mode is selected.

Phase Reverses the leading sign of the control deviation for the PID controller (default: Reverse).
The phase selects whether the relay will operate at the first part of a cycle (direct phase) or
the second part (reverse phase).

Set setpoint Sets the process value which is controlled by the PID controller.

Dead zone In this set range, the PID controller does not take action to change the output frequency
until within the limits of the dead zone.

Pulse width Sets the cycle duration (0-600 seconds) of the PWM output signal. (default: 0.5 seconds)
The cycle duration is equal to the duty cycle of the output signal.

Minimum Sets the minimum number of pulses per minute at which the relay can operate. Range:
pulses 0.001–4.000 (default: 1.000)

Maximum Sets the maximum number of pulses per minute at which the relay can operate. Range:
pulses 0.001–60.000 (default: 04.000). This value cannot be set lower than Minimum Pulses value.

Prop band Sets the proportional part of the PID controller. The proportional part of the controller
supplies an output signal which is linearly dependent to the control deviation. The
proportional part reacts on any changes at the input but starts to oscillate easily if the value
is set high. The proportional part cannot fully compensate for disturbances.

Integral Sets the derivative part of the PID controller (default: 000 minutes). The integration part of
the controller generates an output signal. The output signal increases linearly if the control
deviation is constant. The integration part responds slower than the proportional part and
can fully compensate disturbances. The higher the integration part, the slower it responds.
If the integration part is set too low, it starts to oscillate.
