must be returned in their original packing materials together
with the supplied accessories.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
HI 23 and HI 24 series are real time microprocessor-based
EC or TDS controllers. They provide accurate measurements,
flexible ON/OFF or proportional control capabilities, analog input and output, dual setpoint and alarm signal.
The system is composed of a case inside which the signal
conversion circuitry, the microprocessor circuitry and the
output power drivers are contained.
GREAT FLEXIBILITY
The HI 23 and HI 24 controller series offer a great flexibility
with the possibility to connect a large variety of peripherals,
such as pumps, valves, relays and other control devices.
Each output can be fully programmed. The input can be
from a conductivity probe or from a 4-20mA transmitter. A
programmable analog output can be used for monitoring or
other purposes.
The controller also has the capability to communicate with a
computer via RS485 bus and to be part of an RS485 network.
This allows the control of any process where conductivity is
involved.
The figure below illustrates the connection possibilities of advanced Hanna controllers, such as HI 23 or HI 24.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
1. Liquid Crystal Display
2. CAL DATA keylast calibration data viewing (enters and exits)
3. LCD keyexits from setup and reverts back to normal mode (in idle
or control phases with the measurement on the display).
During EC/TDS calibration, it alternates EC/TDS buffer
value and current cell constant on the display. In HI 24
series, it switches between EC and TDS reading
4. CAL keyinitiates and exits calibration mode
5. SETUP keyenters setup mode
6. keymoves to the next digit/letter (circular solution) when selecting a parameter. Same as key during last calibration
data viewing mode
7. keyincreases the blinking digit/letter by one when selecting a
parameter. Advances forward while in last calibration
data viewing mode. Increases the temperature setting
when temperature probe is not inserted
8. CFM keyconfirms current choice (and skips to the next item)

INSTALLATION
HI 23 and HI 24 series offer a multitude of possibilities,
from dual setpoints to ON/OFF or PID dosage, isolated outputs with user-selectable zoom, recorder outputs in mA and
volts.
Use the 3-wire Pt 100 temperature sensor to compensate for
the cable resistance and have a precise automatic temperature compensation of the measurements in long distance
applications.
See the below diagram for a recommended installation.
CONDUCTIVITY
PROBE
NoteAll external cables to be connected to the right panel should
end with cable lugs.
Use wires with cable lugs when connecting to the strip con-
tacts.
Always disconnect the power cord when wiring the controller.
11
• Power Supply: Connect a 3-wire power
cable to the terminal strip, while paying
attention to the correct line (L), earth (PE)
and neutral (N) terminal connections.
Power: 230VAC - 50 mA.
Line Contact: 200mA fuse inside.
PE leakage current 1 mA; this contact must be con-
nected to ground.
• Conductivity input: the default input is from conductivity
probe. Connect the EC probe to the terminals #10 on
page 8. HI7639D is a conductivity probe with built-in temperature sensor.
• Pt 100 Terminals (to be used only if the EC probe is
without Pt 100): connect to these contacts (#3 on page 8)
the Pt 100 temperature sensor for automatic temperature
compensation of measurement. Follow the below diagram
for connecting a 3-wire Pt 100 sensor as HI5001/5:
Color Pin #
GRAY8
BROWN9
YELLOW 10
12
If using a different Pt 100, separated from the conductivity
probe, connect the cable shield to pin 11, and the other
wires as explained below.
In the case of a 2-wire sensor connect
the Pt 100 to pins 8 and 10, and short
pins 9 and 10 with a jumper wire.
If the Pt 100 has more than 2 wires, connect the two wires of one end to pins 9
and 10 (pin 9 is an auxiliary input to
compensate for the cable resistance) and
one wire from the other end to pin 8.
Leave the fourth wire unconnected, if
present.
NoteIf the meter does not detect the temperature probe, it will
switch automatically to manual temperature compensation
with the temperature adjustable through the up and down
arrow keys. The “°C” symbol will blink on the LCD.
NoteAll external cables to be connected to the right panel should
end with cable lugs.
• Analog output: In the models where it
is available, connect an external recorder
with a 2-wire cable to these terminals
(#2 on page 8) paying attention to the
correct polarity. A wide variety of output
signals, either in V or in mA, is available to fit most standards. Terminal 5 is the voltage output,
terminal 6 is the analog output common and terminal 7 is
the current output.
• Contact 1 and 2: Connect the dosing
devices to these terminals (#8 and #9
on page 8) in order to activate and deactivate them according to the selected
control parameters.
• mA Input: to switch to mA input signal
from a conductivity transmitter (e.g.
HI8936 or HI98143 series) see the setup
procedure (code 6).
13
SETUP MODE
Connect the two signal wires from the transmitter to terminals
#5 on page 8, paying attention to the correct polarity. Terminal 14 is the positive input and terminal 15 is the negative
input.
An unregulated 10 ÷ 30 VDC - 50 mA max.
power supply output (#4 on page 8) is provided to power the transmitter, if needed. Pin
12 is the positive voltage terminal and pin 13
is the negative voltage terminal.
Once the installation is completed, select the appropriate
working range, the reference temperature (20 or 25°C) and
perform conductivity or TDS calibration as described in this
instruction manual. Set the control parameters according
to the process of interest.
The Setup Mode allows the user to set all needed characteristics of the meter.
The setup mode is entered by pressing SETUP
and entering the password when the device
is in idle or control mode.
14
Generally speaking, if the password is not inserted the user
can only view the setup parameters (except for password)
without modifying them (and the device remains in control
mode). An exception is certain setup items, or flags, which
can activate special tasks when set and confirmed.
To each setup parameter (or setup item) is assigned a twodigit setup code which is entered and displayed on the
secondary LCD.
The setup codes can be selected
after password and CFM are
pressed. When CFM is pressed,
the current setup item is saved
on EEPROM and the following
item is displayed. Whenever
LCD is pressed, the device reverts back to control mode. The
same is true when CFM is pressed on the last setup item.
The possible transitions in setup mode are the following:
ENTERING THE PASSWORD
• Press SETUP to enter the setup mode. The LCD will display
“0000” on the upper part and “PAS” on the lower. The first
digit of the upper part of the LCD will blink.
• Enter the first value of the password by the or keys.
• Then confirm the displayed digit with and move to the
next one.
• When the whole password has been inserted, press CFM
to confirm it.
15
NoteThe default password is set at “0000”.
• The LCD will display “SET” on the upper part and “c.00” on the lower, allowing the user to edit setup parameters (see table below).
• Using the arrow keys as for the above password procedure, enter the code of the parameter to set, e.g. 41.
• Confirm the code by pressing CFM and the default or the
previously memorized value will be displayed with the
first digit blinking.
NoteWhen the password is not inserted or a wrong password is
confirmed, the display will only show the previously memorized value, without blinking (read only mode). In this case,
the value cannot be set. Press LCD and start again.
16
• Enter the desired value using the arrow keys and then press
CFM.
• After confirmation, the selected parameter is
displayed. The user can scroll through the
parameters by pressing CFM.
• In order to directly set another parameter, press SETUP again and enter the
code or scroll to it by pressing CFM.
