18 Hydro-View User Guide HD0531 Rev 2.0.0
Precautions should be taken to avoid damage by lightning in areas where there is a known
risk.
It is recommended to install suitable lightning barriers to all conductors in the sensor
extension cable. Ideally, these would be fitted at both ends of this cable to protect the sensor,
the Hydro-View and any other equipment connected to it.
It is recommended to install the equipment using screened cables to the specification defined
in Chapter 3 Section 4.
3.8
Cleaning
The front panel of the Hydro-View should be cleaned with a soft cloth. Abrasive materials and
liquids must not be used.
Note: Do not direct a water jet at the unit.
4 Application Examples
The Hydro-View may be used to configure and monitor Hydronix sensors in a variety of
applications. It is possible to connect the Hydro-View to any of the current range of Hydronix
digital sensors. The specific choice of sensor will depend upon the requirements of the
application. Individual sensor user guides explain the full functionality of each sensor as well as
installation and calibration advice that will be relevant when using the Hydro-View.
Common applications are as follows:
4.1
Batch Averaging
A sensor is used to measure and record an average moisture % of a batch of material
released from a bin (silo) over a short period of time. The Hydro-View may be used to
configure the averaging parameters of the sensor including enabling the sensor to start and
stop averaging during the discharge period. The start and stop signal is given directly to the
sensor via a limit switch position on a gate or from a third party control system.
4.2
Mixing Applications
The Hydro-View may be used in conjunction with a Hydro-Mix or Hydro-Probe Orbiter sensor
to monitor a mixing process. The sensor is positioned within the mixer and the Hydro-View
may be used to display a graph of moisture over time. This is useful to identify the degree of
homogeneity in the material. Amongst other configurable parameters in the sensor the
Hydro-View may be used to configure high and low moisture level alarms.
4.3
Continuous Monitoring of Material
The Hydro-View may be used to configure and monitor a sensor in a continuous process with
the output from the sensor used by third party automation to control the process. Examples
are sensors positioned in screw conveyors or on belt conveyors. As with other applications
the Hydro-View may be used to configure filtering and smoothing parameters within the
sensor to achieve the best possible signal. The Hydro-View may be used to configure high
and low moisture level alarms. Refer to the sensor user guide.
For further information on any of the above please refer to the relevant sensor user guide.
