WIRING THE CB30
The rear panel of the CB-30 controller contains connectors with screw terminals for connecting #28 to #14 gauge insulated stranded wire (#18 gauge stranded wire is recommended).
A wire stripper and a small screwdriver are the only tools required. Figure 3 on page 8 through Figure 6 on page 11 illustrate step-by-step the proper wiring procedures for all standard and optional functions.
At installation, be sure to comply with the following requirements:
• Disconnect power to the unit before attempting any connection or service to the unit.
• Avoid using machine power service for AC power. When possible, a dedicated or lighting circuit is recommended.
• Do not bundle or route signal lines with power lines.
• Keep all lines as short as possible.
• Use shielded wire for all input wiring.
• Observe all local electrical codes.
TO PREVENT ACCIDENTS, POWER SHOULD BE CONNECTED ONLY AFTER ALL OTHER CONNECTIONS HAVE BEEN COMPLETED.

Flow Valve Solenoid Connections
The CB-30 uses an electronic optically isolated TRIAC to control the valve solenoid during the Batch process.
ALWAYS MAKE SURE TO CONNECT THE HOT AC LINE TO TERMINAL #21 AND THE NEUTRAL TO THE SOLENOID.
At the beginning of the Batch the normally open contacts will close, allowing the AC supply to energize the solenoid and open the valve. At the end of the Batch the contact will open and interrupt the AC supply to the solenoid, therefore closing the valve. The TRIAC is field replaceable.

Batch Controller Model CB-30
UNDERSTANDING THE BATCH CYCLE
This section contains a detailed explanation of the typical procedure for batching water into the concrete mix using the Badger Meter CB-30 controller.
The following parameters are used as an example for illustration purposes only:
• Total Batch to be dispensed into the mix = 250 gallons
• Amount of water for WASH Cycle = 30 gallons
• Overrun Compensation = 5 gallons
Presetting Batch Values
Initially the operator will preset all values as follows:
1. Press BATCH, then enter 250 and press ENTER.
2. Press WASH, then enter 30 and press ENTER.
3. Press COMP, then enter 5 and press ENTER.
The Initial Batch Cycle
When the operator presses START the unit will energize the valve solenoid and open the valve. The indicator will show “BATCH“. The display to the left will start counting down from the preset value to the wash value, but begin closing the valve at 35 gallons (wash plus overrun) and coast down to 30 gallons.
The Wash Cycle
The indicator will now show “WASH READY”. The operator presses START again, the indicator will show “WASH” and the display will count down from 30 gallons to zero but begin closing the valve at 5 gallons (overrun) and coast down to zero. The indicator will then show “BATCH READY“ again.
Stopping the Batch
The operator can stop the batch at any point during the run by pressing the HOLD key. If done during the batch cycle the indicator will show “BATCH HOLD”. If done during the wash cycle it will show “WASH HOLD” After a HOLD command the operator has three choices:
• Press RESET to start a new batch, or
• Finish the batch manually by pressing the MANUAL key, or
• Press START to continue and finish the preset cycle.
Manual Batching
If needed, the operator can stop the automatic batch cycle and finish dispensing manually. As long as the manual key is pressed and held, the valve solenoid will be energized (valve open) and the counter will count UP from zero or from that number when the HOLD command was received. Knowing the compensation value, it is up to the operator to release the MANUAL key and stop the valve in time to prevent overruns.
Setting a Batch Limit
In order to prevent anyone from entering too large a batch, you can limit the maximum batch value that can be programmed:
1. Press LIMIT.
2. Enter the maximum allowable batch.
3. Press ENTER.
If a larger quantity than the limit value is entered, the batch display will blink until a lesser value is entered.
Page 14 April 2017CTL-UM-01028-EN-03
Understanding the batch cycle
MPORTANTI
The CB-30 is programmed at the factory with a pulse fail-safe period of three seconds. This means that if a transmitter pulse is not received within three seconds of a START command or the last pulse, (in the middle of the batch) the valve will close and the display to the left will start blinking. After correcting the problem (bad transmitter, valve or pump) press RESET to start over.
Determining the Compensation Value
When a slow closing valve is used, (to prevent water hammer) the CB-30 can be programmed to begin closing the valve ahead of time to compensate for the water overrun during the closing period.
To determine the amount of overrun, run one or two batches with the CB-30 without a compensation value and without a wash value.
1. Preset a typical batch (250 gallons).
2. Press START and let the batch run. The counter will count down to zero, and if there is an overrun, the counter will display the amount as a negative number (for example, –5. This is the number that must be programmed to compensate for valve overrun.
3. To program, press COMP, enter 5, then press ENTER.
The CB-30 will begin closing the valve 5 gallons prior to the Batch and Wash preset values that are programmed. On the second test batch, the counter may actually stop short of zero (for example, at 1). This indicates that the compensation value must be changed from 5 to 4 gallons.
Determining the Scale Factor
The scale factor is a number that multiplies the incoming pulses from the flow meter. It converts them to desired units of measure such as US gallons, liters, imperial gallons or pounds.
To determine the appropriate factor for the type and model of flow meter in use, apply the following formula:
1 gallon (liters, etc.)
Pulse rate (liters, etc.)
= Scale Factor
Example: For a 3" Turbo, the pulse input coming from the PFR-3E transmitter is 24.8 pulses per gallon. Therefore:
1 gallon
24.8 pulses per gallon
= 0.0403
To set the scale factor:
1. Press SCALE.
2. Enter 0403.
3. Press ENTER.
The scale factor will appear as follows: 0 in the left display and 403 on the right display.
Turbo
Size
2" 34.72 0.0288
3" 24.80 0.0403
