danger
• Use a high quality electrical power supply (filtered and regulated).
• Connect the functional earth on the installation to the ground screw on the device (see Figure 1)
• Connect the shielding on each wire to an "FE" (functional earth) terminal to guarantee the equipotenti-
ality of the installation.
• Use shielded cables that respect the specifications described in "Table 1: Specifications of the wires
making up the connection cables".
7.3.1. Electrical connections

For all versions of the multiCELL, the electrical connection is made by set-screw connectors.
7.3.2. Wiring the M0:MAIN board

The M0:MAIN board is used to connect the multiCELL's electrical power source. It has:
• 2 digital inputs (marked DI1 and DI2), for connecting a flow sensor for example
• Two 4-20 mA analogue outputs (marked AO1 and AO2)
• 2 digital outputs (marked DO1 and DO2)
The inputs and outputs are galvanically insulated and therefore voltage free.

Once the function has been configured and activated, the result "Fx:" calculated is available in the list of
process variables on the "M0:MAIN" board. This list appears in the output configuring, user view config-
uring and datalogging menus to:
• Assign the result "Fx:" calculated to a physical output (analogue, AO, or digital, DO) (see chap. 8.10.22
and 8.10.22).
• Display the result "Fx:" on one of the user defined "Ux" views: see chap. 8.10.8.

-- PBLIMIT1: enter the prebleed setpoint for channel 1 on the associated "Time Dosing" function.
-- PBLIMIT2: enter the prebleed setpoint for channel 2 on the associated "Time Dosing" function.
Prebleed lowers the conductivity of the fluid to a value below the standard setpoint value of the ON/OFF con-
troller. When activated, the prebleed setpoint, "PBLIMITx", overrides the standard setpoint of the controller.
A prebleed setpoint value lower than or equal to the conductivity setpoint value of the ON/OFF controller
must be entered.

DEADBAND: Define the percentage, from 0 to 100%, of the deadband around the setpoint value.
KP: Define the proportional gain applied to the difference between the setpoint value and the measured value.
TN: This parameter represents the integral part of the PID module used to eliminate the static error between the
measurement and the setpoint. Enter a value of between 0.1 and 9999 seconds (default value: 9999 s).
TV: This parameter represents the drift part of the PID module used to react quickly to variations in measurement
or setpoint and anticipate variations on the controller. Use this variable on slow processes. Enter a value of
between 0.0 and 9999 seconds (default value: 0.0 s).

Type 8619
If the system becomes unstable, the "TV" value set is too high: reduce it as quickly as possible.
X0: Enter the working point of the output, from 0 to 100%.

LIM- and LIM+: Some actuators (proportional solenoid valves) work on a reduced range (e.g. 40 - 80%); the
parameters "Lim-" and "Lim+" are used to match the working range of the actuator with that of the 8619: see
Figure 49.
STATE OFF: When scaling of the output is configured using the parameters "Lim-" and "Lim+", the parameter
"STATE OFF" is used to guarantee the output setting to 0% or 100% to prevent a permanent command sub-
sisting on the actuator terminals.
∆ = "state off" x ("Lim+" - "Lim-")
i.e. a proportional solenoid valve operating between a command of 40% and 80%.
Then set parameters "Lim-" = 40% and "Lim+" = 80%
If "state OFF" = 2%, then ∆ = 2% x (80 - 40) = 0.8%
Therefore, when the actual output is below 40 + 0.8 = 40.8%, the command switches to 0% and when the
actual output is above 80 – 0.8 = 79.2%, the command switches to 100%.

tivity measurement only in order to ensure prebleed of the system. Configure and activate the "ONOFF" function
before this "TIME DOSING" function so that it appears in this menu.
• The time base is the one set in the "Date" and "Time" functions in the "Parameters" menu. See chap.
8.10.1.
• When the "time dosing" function is already operational, modifying one of its parameters resets the
function.
• A new dosing cycle on the same channel cannot start until the previous dosing cycle has finished.
• Channels 1 and 2 operate independently of each other.
• When a dosing cycle is running on one of the channels, a new dosing cycle on the other channel is run
according to the following rules:
-- when the current cycle is in prebleed phase, the lowest prebleed setpoint "PBLIMIT" of the 2 cycles is taken into
account. Moreover, the longest prebleed duration of the 2 cycles is taken into account.
-- The prebleed phase on the new dosing cycle is not run if the current cycle is in dosing or waiting phase.
-- It is only when both cycles are finished that the conductivity controller takes over.

generate a pulse on the output each time a predetermined volume of fluid is totalized.
INPUT: Choose the digital input DI1 or DI2 associated with the output selected.
PULSE: Choose the volume of fluid for which a pulse must be transmitted on the output selected. First enter the
numerical value and confirm by pressing the dynamic key "OK" to be able to modify the volume unit by succes-
sively pressing .
• A "Warning" event is emitted and the message "M0:W:Pulse x lim." is displayed when the volume
entered multiplied by the K factor of the device > 1000000.
• A "Warning" event is emitted and the message "M0:W:Pulse x 1:1" is displayed when the volume
entered multiplied by the K factor of the device < 1. In this case, the pulse frequency is forced to the
value of the input frequency.

Manually calibrating the pH or redox sensor

• The pH sensor can be calibrated according to a 1-point or a 2-point procedure.
• The redox sensor can only be calibrated according to a 1-point procedure.
• Modify the default calibration limits before calibrating your sensor: see chap. 8.10.23
• In order not to interrupt the process, activate the HOLD function (see chap. 8.11.1).
• Before each calibration, correctly clean the electrode with a suitable product.
• In a 2-point calibration, the buffer solutions used must be at the same temperature.
• Set the periodicity of calibrations in the "Calibration Interval" function (see previous page): each time a
calibration is due, the multiCELL generates a "maintenance" event and a "warning" event.
Detailed procedure for the 1- or 2-point calibration of a pH sensor

• The 1-point calibration procedure is used for rapid calibration by adjusting the zero of the measurement graph
with a buffer solution with a known pH (to calibrate a pH sensor: see below) or a known oxidation reduction
potential (to calibrate a redox sensor: see page 94).
• The 2-point calibration procedure is used for accurate calibration of zero and the slope of the measurement
graph of the pH sensor. This operation requires 2 buffer solutions: in general a first solution with a pH of 7 and
a second solution with a pH very close to that of the process value to be measured. See below.
