1 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Description of Unit
Thank you for purchasing Eutech’s ¼ DIN alpha-1000 series Dissolved Oxygen
process controller. This unit is used for measuring either in % saturation, mg/l or
ppm, one at a time, and the operational mode is switchable from the menu. You can
use this unit to measure Dissolved Oxygen with limit or proportional control. This
controller has many user-friendly and safety features which include:
• Menu-driven program that simplifies set-up
• Built-in Memory backup to ensure that calibration data and other information
are not erased if power supply fails
•Push-button one-/two-point calibration and electrode offset adjustment
from the keypad
• Automatic temperature compensation (ATC)
• Manual temperature compensation with independent setting for calibration
and process temperature
• 0 to 1999 second time delay adjustment on all relays – minimise false alarms
• Separately adjustable high and low set point hysteresis (dead bands)
prevent chattering of relays around the set points
•Three control modes: limit control, proportional pulse length or proportional
pulse frequency
•Large dual display LCD for easy reading with clear multiple annunciators,
alarm status and operational message annunciators
•Two switching contacts as set-point triggering relays and an alarm output
relay
• Separate alarm relay alerts you when set points have exceeded the limits and
if the Pt100 wires are broken or disconnected during the ATC function
• Hold function freezes output current (0/4...20mA) and releases control relays
• LED indicators signal control activities to monitor controller status from a
distance
•Protection against electromagnetic interference - galvanically isolated 0/4 -
20mA output provides safety for data logging and control purposes
1.2
Applications

3. For One-Point Calibration, only Hi-value
calibration is possible. The probe is allowed to
equilibrate in a solution containing 8.24 mg/l of
dissolved oxygen. The “CAL” indicator flashes
at the top, right-hand corner. When reading is
stable, the “READY” annunciator comes on.
Use the ▲ or ▼ keys to adjust the displayed
value to the correct value. Press ENTER key to
accept the value and the controller displays the
status of the probe.
4. For Two-Point Calibration, calibration is
carried out at the Lo-value first, usually zero
oxygen solution. Immerse the probe in the
solution (low levels of dissolved oxygen) and
allow it to stabilise. When the reading is stable,
the “READY” annunciator comes on. Use the ▲
or ▼ keys to adjust the displayed value to the
correct value. Press the ENTER key to accept
the value.

Operating Manual alpha DO 1000
5. If the calibration is successful, the controller switches to the second point,
which is the high-level of dissolved oxygen. Take the probe out of the
solution and immerse it in a solution with a higher concentration of
dissolved oxygen. When the reading is stable, “READY” annunciator
comes on. Use the ▲ or ▼ keys to adjust the displayed value to the
correct value. Press ENTER key to accept the value and the status of the
probe is displayed.
NOTE: If the displayed value is > ±2 mg/l, the controller will not
accept the high-level calibration and retains the previous
calibration values.
6. After calibration, the controller automatically displays the condition of the
probe in the upper display and the temperature in the lower display. You
can view these values without calibration --- see Section 5.1.1 for
instruction. The probe condition is re-determined after each calibration.
7. Press the ENTER key. If you entered the calibration mode using the CAL
key, the controller will return to the Measurement mode. If you entered the
calibration mode from the Advanced Set-up mode, the controller will return
to the sub-function menu.
NOTE: If there is a calibration error, the controller displays “ERR”. If
this happens, push both the ▲ or ▼ keys (escape) to restart the
calibration beginning from Step 1.
NOTE: When calibrating with manual temperature compensation, the
controller automatically changes from the preset process
temperature to the calibration temperature. After leaving the
Calibration mode, the controller switches back to process
temperature (for setting the calibration temperature and the
process temperature, see Section 7.4.3).
6.2 Dissolved Oxygen Calibration in % Saturation of Oxygen
A one-point calibration is done in air. When you carry out a two-point calibration,
you need a standard D.O. buffer solution that matches the low value, which is 0%.
1. Enter Calibration mode. While in the Measurement mode, push the CAL
key and scroll to Calibration code “11”. Push the ENTER key again. The
upper and lower display reads “CAL dO”.
2. Press the ENTER key. Use the ▲ or ▼ keys to select 1- or 2-pt calibration
points.
3. For One-Point Calibration, only calibration at the 100% level is possible.
The probe is allowed to equilibrate with air. The “CAL” indicator flashes at
the top, right-hand corner. When the reading is stable, the “READY”
13
Operating Manual alpha DO 1000
annunciator comes on. Press ENTER key to accept the value and the
controller displays the status of the probe.
4. For Two-Point Calibration, calibration is carried out at 0% saturation first.
Immerse the probe in solution and allow it to stabilise. When the reading is
stable, the “READY” annunciator comes on. Press the ENTER key to
accept the value.
Note: If the displayed value is > ±5% of the theoretical value, the
controller will not accept the zero calibration and retains the
previous calibration values.
5. If the calibration is successful, the controller switches to the second point,
100% saturation. Take the probe out of the zero solution, rinse in clean
water and calibrate in air. When the reading is stable, “READY”
annunciator comes on. Press ENTER key to accept the value and the
controller displays the status of the probe.
Note: If the displayed value is > ±30% of the theoretical value, the
controller will not accept the high-level calibration and retains the
previous calibration values.
6. After calibration to a second value, this controller will automatically display
condition of the probe in the upper display and the temperature in the
lower display. You can view these values without calibration --- see section
5.1.1 for instruction. The probe condition is re-determined after each
calibration.
7. Press the ENTER key. If you entered the calibration mode using the CAL
key, the controller will return to the Measurement mode. If you entered the
calibration mode from the Advanced Set-up mode, the controller will return
to the sub-function menu.
Note: If there is a calibration error, the controller displays “ERR”. If
this happens, push both the ▲ and ▼ keys (escape) to restart
the calibration beginning from step 1.
Note: When calibrating with manual temperature compensation, the
controller automatically changes from the preset process
temperature to the calibration temperature. After leaving the
Calibration mode, the controller switches back to process
temperature (for setting the calibration temperature and the
process temperature, see section 7.4.3).

7.5.4 Selecting a Hysteresis (Dead Band) Value
Hysteresis prevents rapid contact switching if the value is fluctuating near the set
point. It does this by overshooting the set point value to a specified hysteresis value
(default is 0.20 mg/l or 2.5%). You can set the hysteresis value from 0.1 to 10 mg/l,
0.1 to 10 ppm or 1 to 10%.
Example: You have set your set point 1 (Lo) at 6.20 mg/l and your hysteresis limit
value is at 0.5 mg/l. If your measured value undershoots the low set point of 6.20
mg/l, the controller’s relay activates, which in turn activates an external device such
as a pump or valve. The actions of the external device will cause the value to rise
above 6.20 mg/l. When the value has increased to 6.70 mg/l, the relay, and hence
the pump will switch off.
1. Follow directions in 7.5.1 to enter Control
Relay mode. If you are in this mode, skip to
step 2.
2. Press the ENTER key until the upper display
shows the hysteresis (dead band) value and
