Intended Use

The Protos 3400(X) modular process analysis system is preferably used to mea­sure and process electrochemical quantities in liquids. It has a modular design
and consists of the BASE power supply unit, the FRONT door and different mea­suring and communication modules.
Protos 3400X is intended for operation in locations subject to explosion hazards
which require equipment of Group II, device category 2(1), gas/dust.
Protos 3400(X) is a flexible measuring system for continuous measurements in
the field of liquid analysis. Thanks to its modular design, it can be easily adapt­ed to your measuring task. Flexible use of plug-in modules allows combined
measurements as well as later expansions or modifications. The measured vari­ables depend on the measuring modules installed. Communication modules
are available for further processing of the output signals. The sturdy enclosure
(IP 65) can be wall or pipe mounted or fixed into a control panel. The version
with hygienic, polished stainless steel enclosure allows application in the field
of biotechnology, food processing, and in the pharmaceutical industry. The
Protos version with coated steel enclosure – extremely corrosion resistant – has
been developed for application in the chemical industry, environmental engi­neering, water and waste-water treatment, and for application in power plants.

Caution!

Never expose the display to direct sunlight!
At ambient temperatures below 0°C, the legibility of the LC display may be
reduced. This does not impair the device functions.

Safety Information

Application in hazardous locations

Protos 3400X modular process analysis system

The Protos 3400X modular process analysis system is intended for operation in
specific environments and specific fields of application. These are listed in the
instruction manual as specifications for environment, installation and commis­sioning, intended use (= application), assembly and dismantling, and mainte­nance.

Observe the influences of humidity, ambient temperature, chemicals, and
corrosion. If the specifications in the instruction manual are not sufficient for
assessing the safety of operation, e.g. because your specific applications are not
described, please contact the manufacturer to make sure that the application is
possible and safe.
Prerequisite to safe use of the equipment is the observance of the specified
ambient conditions and temperature ranges.

When using the Protos 3400X modular process analysis system, you must
observe the stipulations for electrical installations in hazardous areas
(EN 60079-14). When installing the device outside the range of applicability
of the 94/9/EC directive, you must observe the appropriate standards and
regulations in the country of use.

The Protos 3400X modular process analysis system has been developed and
manufactured in compliance with the applicable European guidelines and stan­dards. Compliance with the European Harmonized Standards for use in hazard­ous locations is confirmed by the EC-Type-Examination Certificate. Compliance
with the European guidelines and standards is confirmed by the EC Declaration
of Conformity.
The EC Declaration of Conformity and the EC-Type-Examination Certificate are
included in the instruction manual.

There is no particular direct hazard caused by the operation of the device in the

Safety Information

During operation, the Protos 3400X
modular process analysis system
may be opened briefly to replace the
SmartMedia card. The mains terminal
cover must be opened only when the
unit is de-energized.

Installation:

The power supply must be disconnect­able near the device by a two-poled
switch incorporated in the building
installation. This switch must meet the
requirements of EN 60947-1 and EN 60947-3, be marked as disconnect device
for Protos 3400(X), and be easily accessible by the user.

Caution!

• Before commissioning it must be proved that the device may be connected

with other equipment.

• Commissioning must only be performed by trained personnel authorized by

the operating company!

• The combination of hazardous-area and safe-area modules

(mixed configuration) is not permitted.

Whenever it is likely that protection has been impaired, the device shall be
made inoperative and secured against unintended operation. The protection is
likely to be impaired if, for example:

• the device shows visible damage

• the device fails to perform the intended measurements

• after prolonged storage at temperatures above 70 °C

• after severe transport stresses

Before recommissioning the device, a professional routine test in accordance
with EN 61010-1 must be performed. This test should be carried out at the
manufacturer's factory.

Information on Commissioning/Start-up

12

In their directive “Title 21 Code of Federal Regulations, 21 CFR Part 11,
Electronic Records; Electronic Signatures“ the US American health agency FDA
(Food and Drug Administration) regulates the production and processing of
electronic documents for pharmaceutical development and production. This
results in requirements for measuring devices used for corresponding applica­tions. The following features ensure that the Protos 3400(X) modular process
analysis system meets the demands of FDA 21 CFR Part 11:

Electronic Signature

Access to the device functions is regulated and limited by individually adjust­able codes – “Passcodes”. This prevents unauthorized modification of device
settings or manipulation of the measurement results. Appropriate use of these
passcodes makes them suitable as electronic signature.

Audit Trail Log

Every change of device settings can be automatically recorded and docu­mented in the Audit Trail Log on the SmartMedia card. The recording can be
encrypted.

Short Description: FRONT Module

View into the open device (FRONT module)

Terminal plates
of “hidden” modules

Each module comes with an adhesive label
containing the contact assignments. This
label should be sticked to the inner side
of the front (as shown). Then, the terminal
assignments remain visible even if further
modules are inserted.

Slot for SmartMedia card

• Data recording
The SmartMedia card expands the
measurement recorder capacity to
> 50000 records.

• Exchange of parameter sets
5 parameter sets can be stored on the
SmartMedia card, 2 of them can be
loaded simultaneously to the analyzer
and be switched by remote control.
Parameter sets can be transmitted
from one analyzer to the other.

• Function expansions
are possible with additional software
modules, which are released using
transaction numbers (TAN).

• Software updates

The circumferential sealing

guarantees IP 65 protection and allows spray
cleaning / disinfection.

Caution! Keep clean!

You must reproducibly document all parameter settings in the device to
achieve a high level of system and device security according to GLP. For that
purpose, an Excel file is provided (on the CD-ROM shipped with the basic
device or as download at www.knick.de) to enter the parameter settings.

The Excel file provides one worksheet for each module with columns for the
following parameters: Factory settings, parameter set A, parameter set B.
Enter your settings as parameter set A or B.
The gray cells in the parameter set B column cannot be modified since they
contain sensor-specific values which cannot be changed by parameter set
switchover. Here, the values listed under parameter set A apply.

Calculation Blocks

Two measuring modules with all their measured values serve as input for the
calculation block. In addition, the general device status (NAMUR signals) is
taken into account. The following variables are calculated from the existing
values:

• Ratio

• Pass (passage)

• Reject (rejection)

• Measured-value difference

• Deviation

• pH value calculation by means of dual conductivity measurement
These output variables are then available in the system and can be assigned to
the outputs (current, limit values, display ...)

Time averaging filter

To smoothen the current output, a low-pass filter with adjustable time interval
can be switched on. When there is a jump at the input (100 %), the output level
is at 63 % after the time interval has been reached.
The time interval can be set from 0 to 120 sec. If the time interval is set to 0 sec,
the current output follows the input.

Note:

The filter only acts on the current output and the current value of the second­ary display, not on the measurement display, the limit values or the controller!

NAMUR Signals: Relay Contacts

Failure, maintenance request, HOLD (function check)

Failure is active
when a value has exceeded (or fallen below, resp.) a preset ”Failure Limit Hi”
or ”Failure Limit Lo”, when the measured value is out of range, or in the event
of other failure messages. That means that the equipment no longer operates
properly or that process parameters have reached a critical value.
Failure is disabled during "HOLD" (Function check).

Maintenance request is active
when a value has exceeded (or fallen below, resp.) a preset "Warning Limit Hi"
or "Warning Limit Lo", or when other warning messages have been activated.
That means that the equipment is still operating properly but should be ser­viced, or that process parameters have reached a value requiring intervention.
Warning is disabled during "HOLD" (function check).

HOLD is active:

• during calibration

• during maintenance (current source, meas. point maintenance)

• during parameter setting at the Operator level and the Administrator level

• during an automatic rinsing cycle

As delivered, the floating relay outputs of the BASE module are assigned to the
NAMUR signals:

Caution!

Make sure that the maximum ratings of the relay contacts are not exceeded
even during switching!

Protective wiring of relay contacts

Relay contacts are subject to electrical erosion. Especially with inductive and
capacitive loads, the service life of the contacts will be reduced. For suppres­sion of sparks and arcing, components such as RC combinations, nonlinear
resistors, series resistors and diodes should be used.

Information concerning relay contacts

As delivered, the relay contacts are suitable for low signal currents (down to
approx. 1 mA). If currents above approx. 100 mA are switched, the gold plating
is destroyed during the switching process. After that, the contacts will not
reliably switch low currents.

Relay Contacts

SmartMedia Card: Types

SmartMedia card: display icons

When the analyzer has recognized the SmartMedia card, it displays an icon
resembling a SmartMedia card:

Types of SmartMedia cards provided by the manufacturer

The SmartMedia cards are supplied preformatted as:

• Memory Card (SW 3400-102 ... 1xx)

• Software update (SW 3400-106)

Software update card (additional function SW 3400-106)
This SmartMedia card is specially preformatted and allows a software
update. In that case the previous operating program of the analyzer
(“firmware”) will be replaced by a new version.
An update card can also be used to save older versions of the operat­ing program. You cannot save general data on a SmartMedia card of the
type “Update card”. By formatting an update card you can generate a
“memory card” (irreversible!) Formatting erases the update!

Memory card (SW 3400-102 ... 1xx)
This type of card allows the storage of data (e.g. configuration,
parameter sets, logbook, measurement recorder data).
The icon flashes to indicate active data transmission.

SmartMedia card locked against data access

(type “memory card”)
To avoid data loss, a memory card must be “closed” in the
Maintenance menu before it is removed.
The icon shown on the left is displayed.
Now the card can be taken out.
(A locked card can be opened in the Maintenance menu.)

Additional Function SW 3400-104: Extended Logbook

The extended logbook saves all entries in a file. The last 50 entries can be
displayed on the Protos. A new file is generated for each month. The date is
encoded in the file name.
Example for a file generated on SmartMedia card:

\LOGBOOK\L_YYMM00.TXT Recorder data of YYMM

(YY = year, MM = month)

The data is recorded as ASCII file with the extension .TXT.
The individual columns are separated by tabs. This makes the file readable with
word processing or spreadsheet programs (e.g. Microsoft Excel). E
ach time the memory card is inserted in the slot, a “Device Info” consisting of
Model number, BASE serial number, and tag number is written. Thus, a memory
card can also be used to collect the logbook data of several devices.
