To isolate output and prevent ground loop problems:

1. Use monitor device with isolated inputs, or

2. Use separate DC supply for 5800CR and monitor device, or

3. Power 5800CR with 12 - 24 VAC step down transformer

Technical Notes:

** 1/8A fuse recommended (customer supplied)
* 4-20 mA output is internally powered (non-isolated), maximum

loop impedance 350 Ω with a 12 V instrument supply voltage,
950 Ω with a 24 V instrument supply voltage.

4. Relay Connections

Two internal relay contact sets (COM, NO, and NC) may be used
for external device control. Front panel LED annunciators indicate
the activation status of each relay. Each relay can control up to
two devices simultaneously, as shown. Relay operation modes
include Low alarm, High alarm, and Proportional Pulse (sec. 5).

Common device connections include:

• Pulse mode - metering pump control

• Pulse mode - solenoid valve control

• Low or High mode - warning lamps

• Low or High mode - bells or sirens

• Low or High mode - external heavy-duty relay

Wiring Example Right
Device A IS powered when relay 2 is de-energized (front panel
LED "off"). Power is discontinued when the relay 2 setpoint is
reached (front panel LED "on"). Device B IS NOT powered when
the relay 2 is de-energized. Power is applied after the relay 2
setpoint is reached.

Technical Notes:

• Maximum relay contact ratings: 5 A @ 30 VDC, 5 A @ 125 VAC,
or 3 A @ 250 VAC

• An external heavy-duty relay must be used for devices with
surge currents or operating currents that exceed the above
specifi cations.

5. Relay Operation

A. LOW alarm mode

The relay is energized when the solution conductivity (mS) drops
below the setpoint, and is de-energized when the solution conductivity
rises above the setpoint plus hysteresis
(sec. 6.2F, 6.2G).

B. HIGH alarm mode

The relay is energized when the solution conductivity (mS) rises above
the setpoint and is de-engergized when the solution conductivity
falls below the setpoint plus hysteresis
(sec. 6.2F, 6.2G).

S

Low setpoint=

Adjustable hysteresis=

Relay energized=

Relay de-energized=

C. Proportional PULSE mode
The proportional pulse relay configuration is primarily designed for metering pump control. The operator is prompted to enter a minimum and
maximum conductivity setpoint and maximum pulse rate for the assigned relay (sec. 6.2H, 6.2I). Relay pulse width is fixed at 130 ms. Refer to the
operation examples below.

• Metering pump chemical addition (dry contact activation type required)

S

300 pulses

Example 1 (right):
As the process conductivity (S) rises above the minimum pulse setpoint (10 S) the
relay begins pulsing; triggering the metering pump for deionized water addition.
As the process conductivity continues to rise, pulsing accelerates proportionally until
the maximum programmed pulse rate of 300 pulses/minute and setpoint (90 S)
are reached, forcing the process conductivity back down to intended
levels (e.g. 10 S).

Example 2 (right):
As the process conductivity falls below the minimum pulse setpoint (90 S) the relay
begins pulsing; triggering the metering pump for chemical addition. As the process
conductivity continues to decrease, pulsing accelerates proportionally until the
maximum programmed pulse rate of 300 pulses/minute and setpoint (10 S) are
reached, forcing the process conductivity back up to intended levels (e.g. 90 S).

Menus:

• VIEW menu (sec. 6.1): The VIEW menu is displayed during
standard operation. The operator can navigate freely through
the menu by pressing either UP or DOWN arrow keys.

• CALIBRATE Menu (sec. 6.2): The CALIBRATE menu contains
all critical display setup and output parameters. A simple secu­rity code feature prevents unauthorized tampering. The opera­tor is required to enter a simple access code for menu access.
The same code also unlocks OPTIONS menus.

• OPTIONS Menu (sec. 6.4): The OPTIONS menu contains
setup and display features that are seldom accessed for minor
display or output adjustments.

Requirements
System calibration (Step E, WET CAL) is required for fi rst-time system setup or periodic sen­sor verifi cation. System calibration can be performed with with a solution of know conductiv­ity and an accurate thermometer, or with fi xed resistors. Refer to the WET CAL procedure
(sec. 6.3) for calibration details.
