Electrical Requirements The refrigerator is available in both 120 V and 230 V config-
urations. The required operating voltage for the refrigerator is
listed on the Identification and Serial Number label, placed on
the inside of the sample compartment door.
Refrigerators configured for 120 V operation are equipped with
a North American NEMA 5-15P plug and is intended for use
only with 120 V , 60 Hz. The power source should be rated for
20 ampere service.
Refrigerators configured for 230 V operation are equipped with
a Continental European CEE 7/7 plug and is intended for use only
with 230 V , 50/60 Hz. The power source should be rated for 16
ampere service.
Refrigerators in either configuration provide 12.5 V at 5
amperes for the sampler controller. This output is from the
two-pin military-type connector on the cord on top of the refrigerator. This output is intended for 6700 Series Sampler controllers
only.
The refrigerator must be installed near a suitable
power outlet. Never use an extension cord.
The power outlet must be visible and easily accessible.
Unplugging the refrigerator is the only means of disconnecting power.
To minimize the risk of electrical shock, the refrigerator must be connected to an outlet with an electrical

6712FR Refrigerated Sampler
Section 1 Introduction
The 6712FR Refrigerated Sampler is an integral part of Teledyne
Isco’s comprehensive sampling system. The system includes the
6712FR and 6712SR Refrigerated Samplers, the 6712 Compact
Sampler, and the 6712 Standard Sampler.
The 6712FR is ideally suited for permanent installation in a wide
variety of indoor and outdoor environments. Constructed from
durable, corrosion resistant materials, the 6712FR withstands
the hostile environments of industrial and municipal monitoring
sites. However, do not install in locations where the refrigerator’s
lower compartment could become submerged.
The 6712FR accepts a variety of sequential and composite bottle
kits. Like all samplers in the 6712 series, it is compatible with a
variety of Isco instruments.
6712 Controller
1.1 About This Manual This manual contains the information you will need to install,
program, operate, and maintain a 6712FR refrigerated sampler.
There are eight sections and five appendices:
• Section 1, Introduction lists the features and specifica-
tions of the 6712FR refrigerated sampler.
• Section 2, Installation/Preparation steps you through
installing the sampler and preparing it for use.
• Section 3, Getting Started describes features that are
common to both standard and extended programming
modes.
• Section 4, Standard Programming shows how to
program your sampler using standard programming
mode.
• Section 5, Extended Programming shows how to
program your sampler using extended programming
mode.
• Section 6, SDI-12 Sondes provides information on
setting up sondes to work with the 6712FR.
• Section 7, Remote Operation explains how the 6712
controller can be operated remotely from external
devices.
• Section 8, Maintenance covers the basic maintenance
required to keep your sampler in top operating
condition.

• Appendix C, General Safety Procedures
• Appendix D, Replacement Parts
• Appendix E, Accessories List
1.2 About 700 Series Modules
The bay on the controller’s side accepts any of Teledyne Isco’s 700
Series Modules. The 700 Series includes:
• 701 pH Parameter Module for monitoring pH and
temperature.
• 710 Ultrasonic Module for monitoring a flow stream’s
level and flow rate with an ultrasonic level sensor.
• 720 Submerged Probe Module for monitoring a flow
stream’s level and flow rate with a submerged probe.
• 730 Bubbler Flow Module for monitoring a flow stream’s
level and flow rate with a bubbler system.
• 750 Area Velocity Module for monitoring a flow stream’s
level, velocity, and flow rate.
• 780 4-20mA Input Module for interfacing to non-Isco
devices with 4 to 20 milliampere output signals.
The modules are optional accessories, and are not required for
operation. However, the modules offer a number of advantages:
they are an economical way to combine flow rate or parameter
monitoring with sampling, and you can program the samplers
and modules as a single unit. Finally, the samplers store the
readings in memory.
1.3 SDI-12 Sondes As an option, the sampler accepts up to 16 parameters from up to
ten sensors with SDI-12 addresses from 0 - 9 (refer to SDI-12
Sonde Readings, page 1-10, for specific parameters).
The data parameters used by the sensing device (sonde) and
recording device (sampler) must match. Certain vendors’ sondes
have enhanced commands that facilitate “plug and play” setup.
These Isco Ready sondes can tell the 6712FR what values they
have, their order, and units of measure. Other sondes can be
used, but require manual setup to identify proper data types for
each data value reported.
1.4 Memory to Store Monitoring Data
1-2
The samplers contain enough memory to store five sampling programs, sampling data, Isco 700 Series Module readings, and
SDI-12 parameter readings. You can view the readings on your
sampler’s display.
You can also retrieve the readings and reports so the information
can be processed on a personal computer. Readings and reports
may be collected with a computer running Teledyne Isco’s
Flowlink™ software. Flowlink can download the information
through a direct connection, a modem connection (when the
sampler is equipped with the optional dial-out modem or con-
6712FR Refrigerated Sampler
Section 1 Introduction
nected to the optional digital cellular modem), or from a 581
Rapid Transfer Device (RTD). The RTD is a quick and simple
way to transfer the data from the field to your computer. Reports
are easily collected with Teledyne Isco’s Samplink software.
1.5 Pump Requirements The pump also requires a pump tube made specifically for the
6712 and 6700 Series samplers. These pump tubes are easily recognized by their blue alignment collars. The 6712 pump tubing is
the same as that for Teledyne Isco’s 6700 Series samplers, but
different from Teledyne Isco’s earlier model samplers, such as the
3700 Series. Other types of pump tubing will not work in
the 6712FR. Refer to Replacing the Pump Tube on page 8-9.
CAUTION
This sampler has a high performance pump. As with all such
pumps, it relies upon liquid to cool working components. If the
sampler is programmed to pump in the absence of liquid in
excess of 5 minutes, excessive heat buildup may damage the
paddles, rollers, and housing. Ensure that the liquid inlet is
completely immersed.

• The power supply and solid state thermostat are sealed inside the refrigerator’s
base. However, electrical connections for the fan and compressor are not
sealed.
• A forced air condensing coil and front ventilation let you place the unit close to a
wall or in a corner.
• The oversized wrap-around evaporator plate cools the sampling compartment
quickly and efficiently. Heaters on the plate let the sampler continue to operate
in cold temperatures. The evaporator plate is self-defrosting.
• Food-grade ABS plastic interior will not support bacterial growth or leach
plasticizers into the sample.
