CHAPTER I - INTRODUCTION
AUTOMATION
Congratulations on your selection of an OMEGA CDCN
Programmable Controller for your water treatment facility.
OMEGA CDCN Automation uses the most advanced electronic
sensing technology to monitor and control the critical
parameters for water treatment, i.e. conductivity, pH,
Oxidation-Reduction Potential (ORP) and temperature. Also
available is monitoring of flow rates for make-up and bleed
water and influent/effluent filter pressures.
This Instruction Manual covers the following models:
- CDCN12 with Conductivity control, pH control, Temperature
monitoring, and two (or three) additives programs,
- CDCN13 with Conductivity control, pH control, optional ORP
control, Temperature monitoring, fill and bleed water flow
programs, and four additives programs.
Data logging and remote operation (with an internal modem
and software) are available on all models.
Use the appropriate sections in the manual for each model.
The primary purpose of water treatment is protection of the
equipment from the aggressiveness of water and prevention of
bacteriological growth.
The guidelines for cooling towers include the following:
- Conductivity typically below 5,000 S/cm - corresponding to
Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) of less than 2,500 ppm (mg/l) to prevent precipitation of dissolved salts and corrosion
products,
- pH between 7.0 and 9.0, depending on chemical treatment,
to prevent scaling or corrosion,
- Oxidation-Reduction Potential (ORP) above 650 mV to
prevent algae growth and growth of bacteria, such as
Pseudomonas, E. Coli, etc.,
- proper water balance with Langelier Saturation Index values
between 0 and 0.3 for untreated waters, or up to 2.0 - for
waters treated with phosphonates and/or polyacrylates,
- adequate filtration with a maximum turnover rate of six
hours.

CONTROLLER FEATURES
Integrated Water Treatment
Professional water treatment for cooling towers, boilers, and
other industrial applications requires the use of separate
chemical and physical processes to remove undesirable and
harmful components.Until recently, all these different
processes were controlled individually, very often resulting in
operational conflicts and costly treatment problems.
The OMEGA CDCN is an advanced controller that integrates
all the different processes for complete water treatment.
Designed around a sophisticated microprocessor with a large
computer-like LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) screen, it displays
full-size menus and submenus, making it easy to use even for
people with little or no computer experience. All displays and
adjustments are accessible from menu screens that are laid
out in a logical and intuitive order. They can in fact be used
without reference to the instruction manual.
All sensing devices are connected to the control module. This
makes it possible to monitor the status of all operational
parameters at a glance. Also, in case of malfunction or alarm,
the operator is immediately alerted.
All control outputs are also connected to the single control
panel which makes installation and maintenance much easier
than with separate control units.
The central microprocessor manages all monitoring and control
functions, including control of the recirculation pump, chemical
additions, water balance, filter backwash and heater control.
Control Functions
The following display and control functions are available on the
Omega CDCN Controllers:
- Conductivity in microsiemens/cm or as Total DissolvedSolids (TDS) in ppm or mg/l with programmable bleed,
- Temperature display in degrees Fahrenheit or Celsius,
- pH from 0 to 14 with capability for programmable acid and
base feed,
- Additive Feed for inhibitors, biocides, descalers, etc. - with
choice of feed programs: manual, automatic (bleed & feed or
bleed-then-feed), cycle timer, percent of flow, ordaily
schedule controls with bleed and feed lockout, pre-bleed and
pre-pH functions.
- Water Balance and Saturation Condition derived from the
Langelier Saturation Index and showing water balance
conditions as either OK, corrosive or scaling.
In addition, a 24-hour clock/calendar shows the date and time
on the main screen. For other models that do not include all
the functions listed above, only the applicable screens and
menus are displayed.
Probe Failure Analysis
The CDCN introduces a new proprietary technology (US
Patent No. 6,657,546) called Probe Failure Analysis.
Conventional controllers detect probe failure by waiting for an
alarm condition to develop.The CDCN features dynamic
testing of the response of the ORP and pH sensors.
This makes it possible for the controller to detect a probe
failure very soon after the sensor fails to respond properly,
therefore avoiding dangerous out-of-range conditions.
Remote Communications
The CDCN features complete communication remote access
by telephone or by IBM PC-compatible computer under
Windows®. It provides the following capabilities:
-remote operation of controller with exact duplication of the
LCD screen display and full access to all the menus and
submenus,
-voice telephone report of test data,
-remote operational control by touch-tone phone,
-alarm callouts to up to six different pre-selected telephone
numbers,
-automatic scanning of multiple facilities with programmable
download and storage of test data on remote computer.
Remote Operation
- Oxidation-Reduction Potential (ORP or Redox) in
millivolts with programmable oxidizer feed, superoxidation
and chemical savings program,
- Water Recirculation with display of the flowrates for makeup/fill and bleed water in gallons per minute (gpm) or liters
per minute (l/m), cumulative flows in gallons (ga) or liters (l),
- Filtration with display of inlet and outlet pressures and
programmable filter backwashing based on choice of time,
inlet pressure, pressure differential or combinations of the
above.
Unlike controllers that provide only a simulated representation
of the display screen, the CDCN features true remote
duplication of the controller screen.
This means that any change on the CDCN screen is
immediately reproduced on the remote computer screen. And
vice versa, any operation that is performed on the remote
computer is reproduced immediately on the controller.
The same commands are available on both units. This allows
instant verification and adjustment of all control parameters.
Changes in parameter settings are subject to password
verification to prevent unauthorized access.

Electrical Codes
The controller is available in either hard-wiring or plug-in
configurations. Make sure to use the proper type of wiring
according to the local electrical code, usually the same as for
the chemical feeders.
The internal wiring of the controller is standard US, i.e.:
BLACKHOT
WHITECOMMON
GREENGROUND
Grounding (GFI)
A grounding lug is provided on the left side of the cabinet. It is
important to connect it to a proper earth ground to prevent
dangerous current leakage and electrical shock. Ground Fault
Interruption (GFI) protection is also strongly recommended for
all installations.
AC Power Input
The CDCN is a dual-voltage controller with a voltage selector
switch located inside the cabinet on the Power Board (see next
page). Before connecting the unit to an external power supply,
make sure that the voltage selector switch is set to the proper
AC power input: 115 V or 230 V.
CAUTION:Damageresultingfromimpropervoltage
selection is not covered by manufacturer
warranty.
Main Power Interlock
To prevent accidental chemical feeding, the controller and the
chemical feeders should always be interlocked - i.e. wired in
parallel - with the manual switch for the main pump so that
there is no danger of feeding the chemicals if there is no water
flow in the recirculation line.
PC Boards
There are two PC boards inside each controller cabinet: a
Power Board (Figure 4 or Figure 6) and a Mother Board
(Figure 5 or Figure 7). They contain all the electrical and
electronic components for the controller. The two boards are
connected together with a flexible ribbon connector.
The schematics for the two boards show the location of the key
components. In addition, all components are also labeled on
the PC boards themselves.
The PC boards are protected with a 1 A fuse that is mounted
on the upper right of the Power Board. If the fuse has to be
replaced, make sure to use a one (1) Amp fuse only. The use
of a larger fuse may cause irreparable damage to the
electronic boards.
Power Board
The Power Board (Figure 4 or Figure 6) is mounted on the
back panel of the controller cabinet.As shown on the
schematic, it contains all the high voltage (115 or 230 V)
circuits and components for inputs and outputs.
115V/230V Power Transformer
The CDCN is equipped with a switchable, dual voltage power
transformer that is mounted on the Power Board inside the
cabinet.
The voltage selector switch is located near the upper right of
the board. Always verify that the switch is set to the correct
voltage, either 115 or 230V.Connecting the controller to
higher voltage may cause damage to the electronics that is not
covered by the manufacturer’s warranty.
Panel Interlock
For safety of operation, a panel interlock switch is mounted
inside the cabinet to shut off all internal power when the control
panel is open.
The relays for the chemical feeders and other outputs are all
rated and fused at 5 A Slow Blow. Other signal relays are 2 A
at 30 V.
NOTE: The fuses for the Power Supply to the PC boards are
AGC-1 Fast fuses.
Make sure not to overload these relays. Chemical feed pumps
normally draw less than 5 A. However, if a pump draws more
than 5 A, it will need a motor starter or a magnetic switch.
NOTE: Depending on options selected, not all relays may be
included on the Power Board.

The Mother Board (Figure 5 or Figure 7) is mounted directly
behind the face panel of the controller and contains all the low
voltage circuitry including the microprocessor and program
chips, the LCD display and the keyboard pad. It is also used
to connect all the sensors inputs.
The key electronic components are the microprocessor and the
programmable chips for Program, Display, Memory plus the
two voice option chips, Voice 0 and Voice 1. The program
chips are located in the center at the very top of the board.
They can be replaced for upgrading of the software program
but this should be done only by an experienced electronic
technician.
Sensor Connections
The pH and ORP sensors are connected to the outside of the
cabinet with bulkhead BNC connectors. The other sensors are
connected directly to the Terminal Barrier strips marked TB1 to
TB5 on the Mother Board, as shown on Figure 5.The
following list applies to the CDCN13

On the CDCN13, the remote alarm is a 5A DPDT relay located
on the upper right corner of the Power Board. The remote
alarm relay can be set for dry or hot contacts, or for any
external signal.
To avoid damaging the Power Board, make sure to use the
right type of contacts. Call your dealer or the factory if you
are not sure.
With hot contacts, the controller powers the alarm with 110 or
230V, depending on the setting of the input voltage selector
switch (see preceding page). Connect the leads to the alarm
to the Normally Open contacts (NO1 and NO2) on the terminal
strip located next to the alarm relay.
With dry contacts, remove the shunts from J4 and J5 located
below fuses marked F7 and F6. Wire the remote alarm to NO1
and C1.
For an external power source, wire the input power to the
terminals marked NC1 and NC2. Wire the remote alarm to the
normally open contact (NO1 and NO2). The alarm voltage will
be the same as the external power source

The 3V Backup Battery is located on the upper left of the
Mother Board. It is used to maintain the memory settings in
case of loss of AC power. This battery is designed to last for
several years in normal operation and for up to six months if
the AC power is shut off.
Under normal conditions, the controller will operate without
battery power. However the clock and other memory settings
will have to be restored in case of complete power shutdown.
The battery should be replaced if the voltage falls below 2.6 V.
This can be verified at any time in the Configuration Menu
using the Battery Submenu.
Remote Communications
The Remote Communications option connects the modem with
a standard US-type, 6-position RJ12 phone jack located on the
lower right of the Mother Board.
If possible, the controller should be connected to a direct
outside phone line dedicated for remote operation.If the
phone line is also used for voice communications, users should
wait for at least three rings to allow the modem to answer
before picking up the phone.
The modem is a combination Data/Fax/Voice multimedia
device registered by the Federal Communications Commission
(FCC), Number B46USA-22429-MN-E.
As shown in Figure 8, the host controller includes a modem
and an RS485 connection (Option REM). It is connected to the
phone line by modem or to a computer equipped with an
RS485 communication card. The slave units need only the
RS485 connection.
Any controller can be set up at any time as either host or slave
using the set of jumpers marked on the motherboard:
- Jumper J9 for CDCN13 controllers
(effective Rev. 7), or
- Jumper JP3 for CDCN12 controllers
(effective Rev. 2).
All slave units must be located within 3,000 feet of the host
controller and connected with two Category 5 wires (one pair).
The RS485 terminal has four terminals of which only the ones
marked A and B are used. Each unit must be wired A to A and
B to B for proper communications. The slave units can be
connected directly to the host unit or through any other slave
units.
CAUTION: Do not wire the connections marked 24 VDC or
GND on the RS485 terminal.This could cause serious
damage to the terminal.

4-20 mA Converter Boards
The 4-20 mA Converter Boards are two optional boards, one
for sensor readings and one for control outputs. They convert
the digital outputs of the controller into analog signals that can
be used by analog monitoring and control equipment.
The two boards are identical and are normally installed at the
factory on the motherboard, as shown in Figure 9.The
location on the motherboard determines the function, i.e.
sensor signal or control outputs. Either board or both can be
installed, depending on requirements.
If the boards are installed properly, the controller software
automatically shows the 4-20 mA menu line in the Submenu
8.3 - Communications.
Field Installation
For field installation, turn off all power to the controller.
Position the converter board on top of the motherboard as
shown on Figure 9. Press the electrical connector J21 into the
socket of the motherboard marked JP1 (or JP2 depending on
option) and the three plastic standoffs fittings into the three
corresponding holes on the motherboard.
