Operating instructions
3.
You can set the scaling of the individual trend display for every value
individually. Press on the “Scaling” tab, select a sensor and define
"minimum” and “maximum”.
ü
Trend display configured.
9.4 Manual mode
You can manually control a controller output in the menu item “Manual
mode” and set an output capacity between 0 and 100 %.
If a controller is in manual mode, this is indicated by a blue Y display in
the main view and by a hand icon.
Working in the menu item “Manual mode”, you can also switch the
automatic switching of the setpoints on or off (see section 9.6 “Setpoints
and reference sets” on page 36).
9.5 Calibration
i
For new electrodes or initial commissioning, all measuring
cells must be recalibrated after a running-in period of 1 - 2
days.
You must first calibrate the sensors before you can detect the correct
measured values. All calibration processes in the device are monitored
for plausibility (zero point and slope) and the measured values document-
ed. Measured values resulting from an uncalibrated sensor are marked in
the main overview. In this case, the measured values are displayed in red.
If the measurement input is displayed individually in the main view, the
information “Calibration not OK” will be displayed.
The current calibration and slope can be found in the “Calibration” menu
in the “Overview” tab.
9.5.1 pH single-rod measuring cell
Calibration of the pH single-rod measuring cell can be performed as a
2-point calibration with 2 buffer solutions or a single point calibration
with subsequent input of the slope of the sensor.
The actual voltage of the single-rod measuring cell and the ideal value of
the set buffer solution is displayed during calibration.
The response time for a new single-rod measuring chain is a few seconds
and is set when the physical reading becomes stable. Older single-rod
measuring cells can have a longer reaction time.
i
To perform the calibration performed here, you will require a
buffer solution with a known pH value. Buffer solutions have a
restricted storage life and their pH value changes depending
on their duration of storage and the storage conditions.
Comply with the manufacturer’s instructions pertaining to the
correct storage; use buffer solutions only within the scope of
their life period and never submerge a sensor in a buffer
solution immediately after removing it from a different buffer
solution.
9.5.1.1 2-point adjustment of the pH value
Pre-conditions for actions:
ü
Two different buffer solutions are ready.
ü
The sensor is clean.
Perform the following work steps:
1.
Working in the main menu under “Calibration”, navigate to the
“Sensors” tab.
2.
Working under “sensor”, select the sensor that measures the pH
value and which you wish to calibrate.
3.
Press the “2 points” button.
4
2-point calibration begins.
4.
Shut off the sample water.
5.
Unscrew the pH single-rod measuring cell from the water sampling
station.
6.
Rinse the pH single-rod measuring cell with water and dab it dry.
Rubbing can cause electrical discharge on the glass membrane,
which results in a delayed display.
7.
Hold the dry pH single-rod measuring cell in the first buffer solution.
It is not important, which of the two buffer solutions you start with.
8.
Enter the pH value of the first buffer solution. This pH value serves as
a reference value for the device. The ideal voltage value and the
current voltage value is displayed in mV. If these values deviate too
greatly from one another, the best value is displayed red. Too great a
level of deviation is an indication that the pH single-rod measuring
cell needs to be replaced.
9.
Wait until the value has stabilised.
10.
Confirm the entry with the green checkmark.
11.
Repeat points 6 to 10 for the second buffer solution.
12.
A window with the actual slope of the sensor will open.
ü
2-point adjustment of the pH value completed.
9.5.1.2 1-point adjustment of the pH value
Pre-conditions for actions:
ü
A buffer solution is on hand for calibration.
ü
The slope of the pH single-rod measuring cell was measured in a
laboratory beforehand.
Perform the following work steps:
1.
Working in the main menu under “Calibration”, navigate to the
“Sensors” tab.
2.
Working under “sensor”, select the sensor that measures the pH
value and which you wish to calibrate.
3.
Press the “1 points” button.
4
1-point calibration begins.
4.
Shut off the sample water.
5.
Unscrew the pH single-rod measuring cell from the water sampling station.
6.
Rinse the pH single-rod measuring cell with water and dab it dry.
Rubbing can cause electrical discharge on the glass membrane,
which results in a delayed display.
