In some cases, the sensor can be used in samples having pH as great as 10.0. Consult the factory.
1.1 APPLICATIONS
The FCL free chlorine system is intended for the determination of free chlorine in fresh water. Unlike free
chlorine transmitters from other manufacturers, the
FCL does not use expensive sample conditioning
systems or messy reagents to control pH. Instead, the
transmitter automatically compensates for changes in
the pH of the sample. The FCL is not intended for the
determi- nation of total chlorine or combined
chlorine (like monochloramine). Nor, can the FCL be
used for the determination of chlorine in seawater.
1.2 FEATURES
The FCL uses a membrane-covered amperometric
sensor. A polarizing voltage applied to a platinum
cathode behind the membrane reduces the chlorine
diffusing through the membrane and keeps the concentration of chlorine in the sensor equal to zero. The
current generated by the cathode reaction is proportional to the rate of diffusion of chlorine through the
membrane. Because the concentration of chlorine in
the sensor is zero, th e diffusion rate and the current
are proportional to the concentration of chlorine in the
sample.
All amperometric free chlorine sensors respond to
changes in pH. Although free chlorine is a mixture of
hypochlorous acid and hypochlorite ion, hypochlorous
acid alone is responsible for the sensor current.
Because the relative amounts of hypochlorous acid
and hypochlorite ion depend on pH, a pH change will
cause the current and the apparent free chlorine
concentration to change, even though the true concentration remained constant. Most manufacturers
solve the pH-dependence problem by treating the
sample with acid, which lowers the pH and converts
hypochlorite ion into hypochlorous acid. The FCL
avoids the expense and inconvenience of sample conditioning by measuring the pH and applying a correction to the raw chlorine sensor signal. The correction
is valid between pH 6.0 and 9.5. For samples having
pH between 9.5 and 10.0, consult the factory.
The FCL is available in two options: Model FCL-01
with manual pH correction and Model FCL-02 with
continuous pH correction. Choose the FCL-01 if the
pH varies less than 0. 2 or if pH changes are
predictable or seasonal. Choose the FCL-02 if the pH
varies more than 0.2. To provide the continuous
pH correction, the Model FCL-02 requires a separate
pH sensor.
Maintenance is fast and easy. Replacing a membrane
requires no special tools or fixtures. A screw cap holds
the pre-tensioned membrane in place. Replacing the
electrolyte solution takes only minutes.
The FCL includes the easy-to-use 56 transmitter.
The transmitter features four fully programmable 4-20
mA out- puts and four fully programmable relays. The
large, full color display allows the user to read sample
pH and chlorine concentration at a
glance. A data logger, graphical display, and
HART digital communications are standard.
Valves, rotameters, and pressure regulators to control
sample flow are things of the past with the FCL. A constant head overflow sampler ensures the correct sample flow to each sensor. To eliminate wiring hassles,
quick-disconnect Variopol cable is standard.
Stable free chlorine standards do not exist. The chlorine
sensor must be calibrated using the results of a laboratory test run on a grab sample.

2.2 INSTALLATION
2.2.1 General Information
1. Although the system is suitable for outdoor use, do not install it in direct sunlight or in areas of extreme
temperature.
CAUTION
The FCL free chlorine transmitter is NOT suitabl e
for use in hazardous areas.
2. To keep the transmitter enclosure watertight, install plugs (provided) in the unused cable
openings.
3. Install the system in an area where vibrations and electromagnetic and radio frequency interference are minimized or absent.
4. Be sure there is easy access to the transmitter and
sensors.
2.2.2 Sample Requirements
Be sure the sample meets the following requirements:
1. Temperature: 32 to 122ºF (0 to 50ºC)
2. Pressure: 3 to 65 psig (122 to 549 kPa abs)
3. Minimum flow: 3 gal/hr (11 L/hr)
2.2.3 Mounting, Inlet, and Drain Connections
The Model FCL is intended for wall mounting only. Refer to Figure 2-1 or 2-2 for details. The sensor(s) screw into
the flow cell adapters as shown in the figures. For Model FCL-02 (free chlorine with continuous pH adjustment),
the pH sensor must be installed as shown in Figure 2-2.
A 1/4-inch OD tubing compression fitting is provided for the sample inlet. If desired, the compression fitting can
be removed and replaced with a barbed fitting. The fitting screws into a 1/4-inch FNPT check valve. The check
valve prevents the flow cells from going dry if sample flow is lost.
The sample drains through a 3/4-inch barbed fitting. Attach a piece of soft tubing to the fitting and allow the waste
to drain open atmosphere. Do not restrict the drain line.
Adjust the sample flow until the water level is even with the central overflow tube and excess water is flowing down
the tube.
2.2.4 Electrical Connections
Refer to Section 3.1 for details.
2.2.5 Installing the Sensor(s)
The Model FCL is provided with sensor cables pre-wired to the transmitter. Connect the chlorine sensor
(Model
499ACL-01-54-VP) to the cable labeled Chlorine. Connect the pH sensor (Model 3900VP-02-10 or older Model
399VP-09) to the cable labeled pH. The terminal end of the sensor is keyed to ensure proper mating with the cable
receptacle. Once the key has slid into the mating slot, tighten the connection by turning the knurled ring clockwise.
The sensor(s) screw into the plastic fitting(s), which are held in the flow cell(s) by the union nut. Do not remove the
protective cap on the sensor(s) until ready to put the sensor(s) in service.

RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK
Electrical installation must be in accordance with
the National Electrical Code (ANSI/NFPA-70)
and/or any other applicable national or local codes.
3.1.1 Power
Wire AC mains power to the power supply board, which is mounted on the left hand side of the enclosure beneath
the gray plastic cover. To remove the cover, grab it by the upper edges and pull straight out. The power connector
is at the bottom of the board. See Figure 3-2. Bring the power cable through the conduit opening just below the connector. Unplug the connector from the board and wire the power cable to it. Lead connections are marked on the
connector. (L is live or hot; N is neutral; the ground connection has the standard symbol.)
Replace the cover. The two tabs on the back edge of the cover fit into slots at the rear of the enclosure, and the
three small slots in the front of the cover snap into the three tabs next to the relay terminal strip. See Figure 3-2.
Once the tabs are lined up, push
the cover to snap it in place.
AC power wiring should be 14
gauge or greater. Run the power
wiring through the conduit opening
nearest the power terminal.
Provide a switch or breaker to
disconnect the transmitter from
the main power supply. Install the
switch or breaker near the
transmitter and label it as the
disconnecting device for the
transmitter.
3.1.2 Analog output wiring
Four analog current outputs are
located on the main circuit
board, which is attached to the
inside of the enclosure door.
Figure 3-1 shows the location of
the terminals, the outputs they
are assigned to, and the polarity.
For best EMI/RFI protection, use
shielded output signal cable
enclosed in earth-grounded
metal conduit.
Keep output signal wiring separate from power wiring. Do not
run signal and power or relay
wiring in the same conduit or
close together in a cable tray.
FIGURE 3-1. Analog output connections.
The analog outputs are on the main board near the
hinged end of the enclosure door.

The alarm relay terminal strip is located on the power
supply board, which is mounted on the left hand side of
the enclosure beneath the gray plastic cover. To remove
the cover, grab it by the upper edges and pull straight
out. The relay terminal strip is at the top of the board.
See Figure 3-2. Bring the relay wires through the rear
conduit opening on the left hand side of the enclosure
and make connections to the terminal strip.
Replace the cover. The two tabs on the back edge of
the cover fit into slots at the rear of the enclosure, and
the three small slots in the front of the cover snap into
the three tabs next to the relay terminal strip. See
Figure 3-2. Once the tabs are lined up, push the cover
to snap it in place.
Keep alarm relay wiring separate from signal wiring.
Do not run signal and power or relay wiring in the
same conduit or close together in a cable tray.

4.4 HOLD
4.4.1 Purpose
To prevent unwanted alarms and improper operation of control systems or dosing pumps, place the alarm
relays and outputs assigned to the sensor in hold before removing the sensor for maintenance. Hold is also
useful if calibration, for example, buffering a pH sensor, will cause an out of limits condition. During hold,
outputs assigned to the sensor remain at the last value, and alarms assigned to the sensor remain in their
present state.
4.4.2 Using the Hold Function.
The hold function uses certain programming features not discussed in Section 4.3.

6.1 INTRODUCTION
The calibrate menu allows the user to do the following:
1. Calibrate the RTD (temperature sensing element) in the chlorine and pH sensors.
2. Calibrate the chlorine sensor.
3. Calibrate the pH sensor. Four methods are available.
a. Two-point automatic buffer calibration
b. Manual two-point buffer calibration
c. Standardization (one-point calibration) against either a grab sample or an in-process measurement
d. Manual entry of pH sensor slope and offset if they are already known
4. Calibrate the analog outputs.

1. Choosing sensor 1 (free chlorine) in section 6.2 causes the screen shown
at left to appear. There are two steps to calibrating a free chlorine sensor,
measuring the zero current (zero) an d determining th e slope of the calibration
curve (grab). Because stable free chlorine standards in the ppm range do
not exist, the sensor must be calibrated against the results of a laboratory
test run on a grab sample.
BACK
2. To zero the sensor, select Zero and follow the prompts. For more
information about preparing the zero solution and measuring the zero
current, press the INFO key when prompted.
If the zero step is successful, the transmitter will display the zero
complete screen and the measured zero current. The screen will also
show the typical zero current for the sensor and the recommended

the prompts. Be sure the sensor is installed in the flow cell in the FCL and
the sample is overflowing the inside tube in the overflow sampler. If you
are calibrating the FCL-02, calibrate the pH sensor first and install it
in its flow cell before calibrating the free chlorine sensor.
If the calibration is successful, the transmitter will display the calibration
complete screen and the sensitivity (nA/ppm). The screen will also show
the typical sensitivity range for the sensor and th e recommended acceptance
criterion. You will be asked to accept the calibration. Press the INFO key
for an information screen to aid with troubleshooting if the calibration is

8.1. OVERVIEW
Data and event logging is a standard feature in the Model 56 transmitter. However, the feature must be enabled.
When data/event logging is enabled, the Model 56 transmitter will automatically store the following events with
date
and time stamp: faults, warnings, calibration data, calibration results (pass or fail), power on/off cycles, hold on/off,
and new sensor board detected. At the user’s discretion the transmitter will also store alarm activation and
deactivation as events. The event logger holds 300 events. When the capacity of the logger is reached, the
oldest events are removed to make room for new events.
When data/event logging is enabled, the transmitter will automatically store the following measurement
data.
Free
chlorine:
date and time, ppm chlorine, temperature, and sensor current.
pH: date and time, pH, temperature, mV, glass impedance, reference impedance, and raw pH (if displayed pH
has a solution temperature correction applied).
The transmitter can store up to 30 days of data. When the capacity of the logger is reached, the oldest data
are removed to make room for new data. Data storage frequency is once every 30 seconds.

MAINTENANCE
10.2 CHLORINE SENSOR
10.2.1 General.
When used in clean water, the chlorine sensor requires little maintenance. Generally, the sensor needs maintenance
when the response becomes sluggish or noisy or when readings drift following calibration. For a sensor used in
potable water, expect to clean the membrane every month and replace the membrane and electrolyte solution every
three months. In water containing large amounts of suspended solids, for example open recirculating cooling water,
membrane cleaning or replacement will be more frequent.
10.2.2 Cleaning the membrane.
Clean the membrane with water sprayed from a wash bottle. Do not use tissues to clean the membrane.
10.2.3 Replacing the electrolyte solution and membrane.
CAUTION
Fill solution may cause irritation. May be harmful if
swallowed. Read and follow manual.
1. Unscrew the membrane retainer and remove the membrane assembly and O-ring. See Figure 10-1.
2. Hold the sensor over a container with the cathode pointing down.
3. Remove the fill plug and allow the electrolyte solution to drain out.
4. Inspect the cathode. If it is tarnished, clean it using a cotton-tipped swab dipped in baking soda or alumina. Use
type A dry powder alumina intended for metallographic polishing of medium and soft metals. Rinse thoroughly
with water.
5. Wrap the plug with two turns of pipe tape and set aside. Remove old tape first.
6. Prepare a new membrane. Hold the membrane assembly with the cup formed by the membrane and membrane
holder pointing up. Fill the cup with electrolyte solution and allow the wooden ring to soak up the solution (usually
takes several minutes).
7. Hold the sensor at about a 45-degree angle with the cathode end pointing up. Add electrolyte solution through
the fill hole until the liquid overflows. Tap the sensor near the threads to release trapped air bubbles. Add more
electrolyte solution if necessary.
8. Place the fill plug in the electrolyte port and begin screwing it in. After several threads have engaged, rotate
the sensor so that the cathode is pointing up and continue tightening the fill plug. Do not overtighten.
9. Place a new O-ring in the groove around the cathode post. Cover the holes at the base of the cathode stem
with several drops of electrolyte solution.
10. Insert a small blunt probe, like a toothpick with the end cut off, through the pressure equalizing port. See
Figure 10-1.
NOTE
Do not use a sharp probe. It will puncture the bladder and destroy the sensor.
Gently press the probe against the bladder several times to force liquid through the holes at the base of the
cathode stem. Keep pressing the bladder until no air bubbles can be seen leaving the holes. Be sure the holes
remain covered with electrolyte solution.
11. Place a drop of electrolyte solution on the cathode, then place the membrane assembly over the cathode.
Screw the membrane retainer in place.
12. The sensor may require several hours operating at the polarizing voltage to equilibrate after the electrolyte
solution has been replaced.

10.3 pH SENSOR
10.3.1 General.
When used in clean water, the pH sensor requires little maintenance. Generally, the sensor needs maintenance when
the response becomes sluggish or noisy. In clean water the typical cleaning frequency is once a month. In water
containing large amounts of suspended solids, for example open recirculating cooling water, cleaning frequency will
be substantially greater.
10.3.2 Cleaning the Sensor
Remove soft deposits by rinsing with a stream of water from a wash bottle. If the sensor becomes coated with
rust, dissolve the rust by soaking the sensor in dilute citric acid (dissolve 5 grams citric acid crystals in 100 mL of
water) for no longer than 30 minutes at room temperature. Rinse the sensor thoroughly with water and soak in
pH 4 buffer for several hours. Recalibrate the sensor in buffers before returning it to service.
10.3.3 Other Maintenance
The 3900VP-02-10 or the older 399VP-09 sensor supplied with the Model FCL-02 is disposable. It has no
replaceable parts.

SECTION 10.0
MAINTENANCE
10.4 CONSTANT HEAD FLOW CONTROLLER
10.4.1 General
After a period of time, deposits may accumulate in the constant head overflow chamber and in the tubing leading
to the flow cell(s). Deposits increase the resistance to flow and cause the flow to gradually decrease. Loss of flow
may ultimately have an impact on the chlorine sensor performance. The flow controller is designed to provide about
2 gal/hr (120 mL/mm) flow. Loss of flow to about 1 gal/hr (60 mL/mm) causes about a 5% decrease in chlorine
sensor output. Loss of flow has almost no effect on pH sensor performance other than to increase the overall
response time.
10.4.2 Cleaning the flow controller
The low flow controller can be taken apart completely for cleaning. Use a strong flow of water to flush out the tubing.
A pipe cleaner or a small bottlebrush can remove more adherent deposits. To prevent leaks, apply a thin layer of
silicone grease (or equivalent) to the two O-rings at the base of overflow chamber and to the O-ring sealing the
central overflow tube to the base.
10.4.3 Other Maintenance
Table 10-2 and Figure 10-2 show the replacement parts for the flow controller assembly used in Model FCL-01.

TROUBLESHOOTING
11.1 OVERVIEW
The transmitter continuously monitors itself and the sensor(s) for problems. When the transmitter identifies a
problem, the word warning or fault appears intermittently at the bottom of the display. To read the fault or warning
message and troubleshooting information, press INFO. See section 11.2.
A warning means the instrument or sensor is usable, but steps should be taken as soon as possible to correct the
condition causing the warning. Warning messages can be turned off. To turn off warning messages, go to the main
menu and choose Display setup. Scroll to the Warning tab and turn off warning messages.
A fault means the measurement is seriously in error and is not to be trusted. A fault condition might also mean that
the transmitter has failed. Fault conditions should be corrected immediately. When a fault occurs, the analog
output goes to 22.00 mA or to the value programmed in Section 5.2. Fault messages cannot be turned off.

11.5.3
Chlorine reading spikes following rapid change in pH
11.5.4
11.5.1 Process readings are erratic
1. Readings are often erratic when a new sensor or a rebuilt sensor is first placed in service. The current usually
stabilizes after a few hours.
2. Are the holes between the membrane and the electrolyte reservoir open? Unscrew the membrane retainer and
remove the membrane assembly. Inspect the holes at the base of the cathode stem. If they appear to be
plugged, use a straightened paper clip or pin to remove blockages.
3. Verify that wiring is correct. Pay particular attention to shield and ground connections.
4. If automatic pH correction is being used, check the pH reading. If the pH reading is noisy, the chlorine reading
will also be noisy. If the pH sensor is the cause of the noise, use manual pH correction until the problem with
the pH sensor can be corrected. Also, refer to Section 11.6.3 and 11.6.4 for troubleshooting noisy pH readings.
5. Is the membrane in good condition and is the sensor filled with electrolyte solution? Replace the fill solution
and electrolyte. Refer to Section 10.0 for details.
11.5.2 Readings drift
1. Is the sample temperature changing? The transmitter automatically corrects for changes in sensor
current caused by temperature changes. The time constant for the temperature measurement is about five
minutes. Therefore, the reading may drift for a while after a sudden temperature change.
2. Is the membrane clean? For the sensor to work properly, chlorine must diffuse freely through the membrane.
A coating on the membrane will interfere with the passage of chlorine, resulting in slow response. Clean the
membrane by rinsing it with a stream of water from a wash bottle. DO NOT use a tissue to wipe the membrane.
3. Is the sample flow within the recommended range? Gradual loss of sample flow will cause a downward drift.
Be sure the liquid level in the constant head sampler is level with the central overflow tube and that excess
sample is flowing down the tube. If necessary, disassemble and clean the overflow sampler. See Section 10.4.
4. Is the sensor new or has it been recently serviced? New or rebuilt sensors may require several hours to stabilize.
5. Is the pH of the process changing? If manual pH correction is being used, a gradual change in pH will cause
a gradual change in the chlorine reading. As pH increases, chlorine readings will decrease, even though the
free chlorine level (as determined by a grab sample test) remained constant. If the pH change is no more than
about 0.2, the change in the chlorine reading will be no more than about 10% of reading. If the pH changes
are more than 0.2, use automatic pH correction.
6. Is a bubble trapped against the membrane? For the sensor to work properly, the chlorine must continuously
diffuse through the membrane. Bubbles block the chlorine in the sample from reaching the membrane, so
readings drift downward as bubbles form and grow. The nozzle at the bottom of the flow cell pushes bubbles
to the edges of the membrane where they do no harm. In cold samples the nozzle may not be as effective.
a. If bubbles are visible, confirm that they are blocking the membrane by removing the sensor from the flow
cell and replacing it. Removing the sensor breaks the bubbles, so when the sensor is replaced, readings
return to normal.
b. Confirm that the nozzle is properly positioned in the flow cell. Line up your eye with the bottom of the membrane
retainer. No gap should be visible between the end of the nozzle and membrane retainer.

TROUBLESHOOTING
11.5.3 Sensor does not respond to changes in chlorine level.
1. Is the grab sample test accurate? Is the grab sample representative of the sample flowing to the sensor?
2. Is sample flowing past the sensor? Be sure the liquid level in the constant head sampler is level with the central
overflow tube and that excess sample is flowing down the tube. If necessary, disassemble and clean the over
flow sampler. See Section 10.4.
3. Is the pH compensation correct? If the transmitter is using manual pH correction, verify that the pH value in
the transmitter equals the actual pH to within ±0.1 pH. If the transmitter is using automatic pH correction,
check the calibration of the pH sensor.
4. Is the membrane clean? Clean the membrane and replace it if necessary. Check that the holes at the base
of the cathode stem are open. Unscrew the membrane retainer and remove the membrane assembly. Locate
the small holes at the base of the cathode stem. Use a straightened paper clip to clear the holes. Replace the
electrolyte solution.
5. Replace the sensor.
11.5.4 Chlorine readings spike following sudden changes in pH (automatic pH correction).
Changes in pH alter the relative amounts of hypochlorous acid (HOCl) and hypochlorite ion (OCl-) in the sample.
Because the sensor responds only to HOCl, an increase in pH causes the sensor current (and the apparent chlorine
level) to drop even though the actual free chlorine concentration remained constant. To correct for the pH effect, the
transmitter automatically applies a correction. Generally, the pH sensor responds faster than the chlorine sensor.
After a sudden pH change, the transmitter will temporarily over-compensate and gradually return to the correct
value. The time constant for return to normal is about 5 minutes.
11.6 OTHER TROUBLESHOOTING — pH

troubleshooting information for process measurement problems is not.

11.6.1 Sensor Does Not Respond to Known pH Changes.
1. Is the pH sensor responsive to buffers? Check sensor response in two buffers at least two pH units apart.
2. Did the expected pH change really occur? Use a second pH meter to verify the change.
3. Is sample flowing past the sensor? Be sure the liquid level in the constant head sampler is level with the central
overflow tube and that excess sample is flowing down the tube. If necessary, disassemble and clean the over
flow sampler. See Section 10.4.
4. Is the sensor properly wired to the transmitter? See Section
3.2.
5. Is the glass bulb cracked or broken? Go to sensor diagnostics and check the glass electrode impedance. See
Section 11.3.
6. Is the transmitter working properly? Check the transmitter by simulating the pH input. See Section
11.9.
11.6.2 Buffer Calibration Is Acceptable, Process pH Is Slightly Different from Expected Value.
Differences between pH readings made with an on-line instrument and a laboratory or portable instrument are
normal. The on-line instrument is subject to process variables, for example ground potentials, stray voltages, and
orientation effects that may not affect the laboratory or portable instrument. To make the process reading agree
with a referee instrument, standardize the sensor. See Section 6.5.

TROUBLESHOOTING
11.6.3 Calibration Was Successful, but Process pH Is Grossly Wrong and/or Noisy.
Grossly wrong or noisy readings suggest a ground loop (measurement system connected to earth ground at more
than one point), a floating system (no earth ground), or noise being brought into the transmitter by the sensor
cable. The problem arises from the process or installation. It is not a fault of the transmitter. The problem should
disappear once the sensor is taken out of the system. Check the following:
1. Is a ground loop present?
a. Verify that the system works properly in buffers. Be sure there is no direct electrical connection between the
buffer containers and the process liquid or piping.
b. Strip back the ends of a heavy gauge wire. Connect one end of the wire to the process piping or place it in
the process liquid. Place the other end of the wire in the container of buffer with the sensor. The wire makes
an electrical connection between the process and sensor.
c. If offsets and noise appear after making the connection, a ground loop exists.
2. Is the process grounded?
a. The measurement system needs one path to ground: through the process liquid and piping. Plastic piping,
fiberglass tanks, and ungrounded or poorly grounded vessels do not provide a path. A floating system can
pick up stray voltages from other electrical equipment.
b. Ground the piping or tank to a local earth ground.
c. If noise still persists, simple grounding is not the problem. Noise is probably being carried into the instrument
through the sensor wiring.
3. Simplify the sensor wiring.
a. Disconnect all sensor wires at the transmitter except, IN REFERENCE, IN pH, RTD IN and RTD RETURN.
See the wiring diagrams in Section 3.2.
b. Tape back the ends of the disconnected wires to keep them from making accidental connections with other
wires or terminals.
c. Connect a jumper wire between the RTD RETURN and RTD SENSE terminals (see wiring diagrams in
Section 3.2).
d. If noise and/or offsets disappear, the interference was coming into the transmitter through one of the
sensor wires. The system can be operated permanently with the simplified wiring.
4. Check for extra ground connections or induced noise.
a. To avoid induced noise in the sensor cable, keep the unit as far away as possible from power cables, relays,
and electric motors.
b. If ground loops persist, consult the factory. A visit from an experienced technician may be required to solve
the problem.
11.6.4 pH Readings Are Moderately Noisy and Tend to Wander.
pH readings that are moderately noisy (±0.1 pH) and tend to wander are probably caused by bubbles getting
trapped against the pH sensor. Although the overflow sampler is designed to allow bubbles to escape before they
reach the pH sensor and the sensor itself is designed so trapped air bubbles don’t interfere with the measurement,
bubbles may occasionally be a problem. Shaking the sensor will dislodge the bubbles. If bubbles remain a
problem, call the factory.

11.9 SIMULATING INPUTS — pH
11.9.1 General
This section describes how to simulate a pH input into
the transmitter. To simulate a pH measurement, connect
a standard millivolt source to the transmitter. If the
transmitter is working properly, it will accurately measure
the input voltage and convert it to pH.
11.9.2 Simulating pH input.
1. Set automatic temperature correction to manual
and set manual temperature to 25°C. See Section
5.5
2. Disconnect the sensor and connect a jumper wire
between the IN REFERENCE and IN pH terminals.
3. Press INFO and choose sensor 2 information (pH).
The input voltage should be 0 mV and the pH should
be 7.00. Because calibration data stored in the analyzer may be offsetting the input voltage, the displayed
pH may not be exactly 7.00.
4. If a standard millivolt source is available, disconnect
the jumper wire between IN REFERENCE and IN pH
and connect the voltage source as shown in Figure
11-2. Be sure to jumper the IN REFERENCE and
GND SOL terminals.
5. Calibrate the transmitter using the manual buffer pro-
cedure. Use 0.0 mV for Buffer 1 (pH 7.00) and -177.4
mV for Buffer 2 (pH 10.00). If the transmitter is
working properly it should accept the calibration. The
slope should be 59.16 mV/pH and the offset should
be zero.
6. To check linearity, set the voltage source to the val-
ues shown in the table and verify that the pH and millivolt readings match the values in the table.

11.10 SIMULATING INPUTS — TEMPERATURE
11.10.1 General.
The transmitter accepts a Pt100 RTD (for pH and chlorine
sensors). The Pt100 RTD is in a three-wire configuration.
See Figure 9-5.
11.10.2 Simulating temperature
To simulate the temperature input, wire a decade box to
the transmitter as shown in Figure 11-4.
To check the accuracy of the temperature measurement, set
the resistor simulating the RTD to the values in the table and
note the temperature readings. The measured temperature
might not agree with the value in the table. During sensor
calibration an offset might have been applied to make the
measured temperature agree with a standard thermometer.
The offset is also applied to the simulated resistance. The
transmitter is measuring temperature correctly if the
difference between measured temperatures equals the
difference between the values in the table to within ±0.1°C.
For example, start with a simulated resistance of 103.9 Ω
,
which corresponds to 10.0°C. Assume the offset from the
sensor calibration was -0.3 Ω. Because of the offset, the
transmitter calculates temperature using 103.6 Ω. The
result is 9.2°C. Now change the resistance to 107.8 Ω,
which cor- responds to 20.0°C. The transmitter uses 107.5
Ω to calculate the temperature, so the display reads
19.2°C. Because the difference between the displayed
temperatures (10.0°C) is the same as the difference
between the simulated temper- atures, the transmitter is
working correctly.
FIGURE 11-3. Three-Wire RTD Configuration.
Although only two wires are required to connect
the RTD to the transmitter, using a third (and
some- times fourth) wire allows the transmitter
to correct for the resistance of the lead wires and
for changes in the lead wire resistance caused by
changes in ambient temperature.
