Signet 8900 Multi-Parameter

2. Description

The 8900 Multi-Parameter Controller takes the concept of modularity to the extreme. The controller comes with backlit display that  
provides clear visibility in dark environments.  In addition, ultimate fl exibility is achieved via plug-in modules for two, four or six input 
channels, universal AC line voltage or 12 to 24 VDC power, up to four analog outputs, and up to four relays. The controller will support 
up to four additional relays, for a total of eight, by way of external relay modules.
Absolute input versatility allows mixing and matching of up to six sensors with digital (S

3

L) output.  Up to two of the possible six input 

channels may be used for Signet fl ow sensors with frequency output. The 8058 Signal Converter module enables any 4 to 20 mA signal 
to be used as input to the 8900.

2.1 Compatibility

Model numbers of sensors and external relays compatible with the 8900 are identifi ed in the tables below.
• 

For two channel systems, mix and match up to two of any of these sensors.

• 

For four channel systems, mix and match up to four sensors with digital (S

3

L) output.

• 

For Six channel systems, mix and match up to six sensors with digital (S

3

L) output.

• 

The optional external relays connect via digital (S

3

L)

 

to the I/O Module, but do NOT consume a sensor input channel.

• 

pH and conductivity sensors include temperature sensors.  These "secondary" measurements are treated by the 8900 as separate 
sensors with respect to display, output and relay functionality, but they do NOT consume separate input channels.
