for its intended purpose.

• Environmental protection regulations

• Please observe environmental protection regulations and collect any unused reagents and send them to us for

safe disposal in accordance with local statutory requirements.

Operational reliability instructions

Careful handling of the unit increases both its operational reliability and service life!
Therefore, carry out a visual inspection at regular intervals as described below.

• Are the hose connections of the dosing pump free of leaks?

• Is there any air inside the dosing hoses?

• Are all the water connections free of leaks?

• Are the doors of the unit closed properly?

• Is the unit unduly soiled?

Maintenance and servicing instructions
(see chapter entitled Maintenance)

Safety instructions

• The unit must be installed and operated in compliance with relevant standards (e.g. DIN, VDE, UVV) or in

accordance with regulations laid down by the respective country.

• Some functions (e.g. diagnosis, manual operation) allow direct manipulation of the plant to be monitored without

locking or monitoring. Only trained staff should use these functions, which can only be accessed after entering a
password.

• If you notice that the device is malfunctioning, switch it off immediately. Subsequently shut off the water supply

and contact our service staff.

• Do not try to repair the unit (loss of warranty rights); always contact authorised service staff. This is the only way to

ensure reliable and safe operation of the plant.

• After a protective circuit (fuse) has been tripped, attempt to eliminate the cause of malfunctioning (e.g. replace a

defective valve) before reactivating the protective circuit. Frequent tripping is always due to an error which, in
certain circumstances, may also cause damage to the unit.

• Always observe the safety instructions about working with reagents, chemicals and cleaning agents.

• Always adhere to hazard warnings and safety tips when using reagents, chemicals and cleaning agents. Please

adhere to the respective safety data sheet! Download the safety data sheets for the supplied reagents at
http://www.heyl.de .

Non-compliance with these instructions can damage the unit as well as the plant and may result in a loss of
warranty rights.

3 / 24

Installation and commissioning

Only authorised technicians should carry out installation and
commissioning!

Installation

Install the unit vertically!

Avoid twisting the housing!

The unit doors swing to the left when they are opened. Please
ensure that there is sufficient space to open them. This facilitates
electrical installation as well as future maintenance and service
work.

Electrical connection

Please observe the supply voltage specified on the rating
plate!

Basic requirements
External cables (e.g. water meter, interface) should be kept as
short as possible and clear of power cables.

Connection
Loosen both fastening screws and open the upper door. Pierce the required rubber
cable glands with a screwdriver and insert the cable (1). Subsequently pull back the
cable until the bush (2) has been turned over. Ensure that the leads are held securely
in the terminals, then close the upper door once installation has been completed using
the two fastening screws.

Mains water supply

The temperature of the sample water should be between 10 °C and 40 °C. Higher water temperatures can
damage the parts which come into contact with the water (e.g. filter housing, measuring chamber)!
Lower water temperatures can cause mist to form on the sight-glass windows.

☞

For temperatures above 40 °C the KCN type cooler should be installed in the branch line of the Testomat®
2000 SO

3

2-

.

Hot water can scald you!

The sampling line to the Testomat® 2000 SO

3

2-

should be equipped with a manually operated shut-off valve and kept
as short as possible (the max. length of 5 metres should not be exceeded). It is important that the branch line
connection is taken vertically from the top of the main water line in order to prevent dirt particles from entering the unit.
When operating the Testomat® 2000 SO

3

2-

within the pressure range of 0.3 to 1 bar or when it is supplied via a feed

pump, please remove the valve body from the controller/filter housing. The feed pump should have a feeding capacity
of between 25 and 35 litres/hour and be resistant to the medium being measured.

Plug connector
The unit is equipped with a plug connector for opaque plastic hoses 6/4 x 1 (external diameter 6 mm/ internal diameter
4 mm) as standard.

Quick-release coupling (accessory: Adapter for water inlet, Art. no. 40123)
If fabric-reinforced pressure hoses (e.g. for existing installations) are used, please replace the plug connector at the
controller and filter housing with a plug for the quick-release coupling (not included).

4 / 24

Water outlet
The feed water flows through the measuring chamber to the drain via the outlet pipe (hose connection internal
diameter 14 mm). Make sure, e.g. by using an open funnel, that the water drains off freely and backwater to the
measuring chamber does not develop. An opaque hose should also be used for the drain pipe (to prevent algae
formation).

Commissioning

1. Always connect full reagent bottles prior to commissioning and switching on. Use the union nut to attach the

vacuum connection to the reagent. Observe correct allocation of the reagents A and B to the dosing pumps: A =
left, B = right.

2. Switch the unit 'on' and press the "STANDBY" key. This prevents an analysis from being carried out without

correct programming and thus an error or alarm message.

3. Subsequently bleed the dosing pumps and pipes by pressing the "Manual" key on the dosing pump. Ensure that

there is no air in the pipes! (If necessary, retighten the connections.)

4. Program the unit according to your requirements, e.g.: - Operating mode - Display unit

- Limit values - Flush times / interval

Refer to program menu“M” for a description of programming.

5. Enter the correct fill levels of the reagent bottles.

"M" ➔ SERVICE I ➔ INPUT REAGENTS ➔ REAGENT A FILLING (100%)
"M" ➔ SERVICE I ➔ INPUT REAGENTS ➔ REAGENT B FILLING (100%)

6. Subsequently bleed the unit’s water supply via manual flushing.

"M" ➔ SERVICE ➔ MANUAL OPERATION ➔ FLUSH (press "ENTER" repeatedly).

7. Flush until there are no bubbles visible in the measuring chamber.

8. Check all connections for tightness.

9. Carry out the first analysis by pressing the "Manual" key.

Description of the relay outputs

Flush external flush valve:

If a long sampling line is unavoidable for installation, we recommend the installation of a flush valve upstream of the
unit.
If the unit is used for monitoring two measuring points, also install an external flush valve to prevent incorrect
measurements caused by sample mixing.
Immediately before each analysis the external flush valve is opened for the programmed period allowing the line up to
the Testomat® 2000 SO

Alarm fault message output
The "Alarm" output is a volt-free change-over relay contact. During trouble-free operation the contact between the
terminals 15 – 16 is closed and the one between terminals 14– 16 is open. In case of a voltage breakdown, the
contact between the terminals 14 – 16 is closed and the one between terminals 15– 16 is open.
The unit is equipped with a range of monitoring functions. You can define the individual statuses as a fault and
program the corresponding message either as a continuous contact (A) or as a message impulse (M).

- With a continuous contact, the "Alarm" output remains activated (terminals 15 – 16 closed) as long as the fault
persists.

- With a message impulse, the output is switched 'on' for 2 seconds and then switched 'off' for 5 seconds.

- If several faults with differently programmed messages are signalled simultaneously, the output is switched to
continuous contact.

- The red LED "Alarm" and the text on the display indicate a fault.

- The fault message signal at the "Alarm" output is deleted by confirming the fault via the "Horn" key.

- The error message can only be deleted if the fault has been eliminated.

- Exception: The maintenance date has been exceeded. This message is confirmed in the M menu, see below
(maintenance).

- Each new fault is entered into the error history (also see i menu, page 16).

The following faults activate the "Alarm" output and are displayed:

The following statuses always trigger a fault message: Statuses which can be programmed as a fault:
Power failure Low reagent level
Low water level Measuring fault soiling
Function fault optics Measuring fault turbidity
Function fault dosing pump Transfer error
Function fault drain outlet Measuring range exceeded
Function fault failure 24V Maintenance interval exceeded

Descriptions of the error messages can be found under “Error messages / Troubleshooting”

Maintenance maintenance message
The "Maintenance" output is a volt-free change-over relay contact. During trouble-free operation without a
programmed maintenance interval the contact between the terminals 17 – 19 is closed and the one between terminals
18– 19 is open.
The unit is equipped with a range of monitoring functions and a programmable maintenance interval. The respective
maintenance message is always a continuous contact.

A maintenance request is displayed via the yellow "Maintenance" LED.
The maintenance display can only be deleted once the status has been corrected or after the maintenance request
has been confirmed.
"M" ➔ SERVICE ➔ CONFIRM MAINTENANCE

The following statuses activate the "Maintenance" output:

Function characteristics

Operating modes (analysis controller)

1. Time control: Internal triggering via a timer. Shortest interval = 0 minutes
between analyses, longest interval = 99 minutes.

(Also see “Function characteristics / Time setting”)

☞

The analysis interval is determined by the duration of the supplementary program AUX, the set flush times

(internal and external), the programmed interval and the duration of the analysis. The analysis duration
depends directly on the measured value.

2. Quantity control: Triggered by the water meter.
Minimum interval = 1 litre, maximum interval = 9999 litres.
The analysis is carried out once the programmed water quantity has been measured. The line and the measuring
chamber are flushed prior to the analysis (observe the programmed flush times).

3. External analysis start by triggering a contact at the start input

☞

The current analysis interval can be interrupted by triggering a contact at the stop

input.

Display unit

It is possible to program the unit of the displayed value. mg/l as well as ppm can be
selected. All the following inputs and displays will be displayed in the programmed
unit.
The device has a measuring range 0-20mg/l with two resolution ranges 0-9.9mg/l
and 10-20mg/l.

Measuring points

The Testomat 2000 SO3 can be used for monitoring 2 measuring points. Measuring
point switch-over can occur either automatically or by triggering a contact (or
normally closed) at input IN2. If the external measuring point switch-over has been
programmed ("2 MEASURING POINTS EXTERNAL"), a respective controller (e.g.
timer) has to be connected to IN1 (volt-free contact required!). The active status of
IN1 has to be programmed accordingly.

Time setting

Internal flushing

To ensure that the analysed sample represents the current value, the sampling line must be sufficiently flushed. If the
plant has been out of operation for a longer period or in the case of long analysis intervals, we recommend you to
select a flushing time greater than 60 seconds. Flushing starts by simultaneously opening the inlet and the outlet valve
of the Testomat® 2000 SO

3

2-

.

Example: For connections longer than 3 m and with an internal hose diameter of 6 mm a minimum internal
flushing time of 10 seconds is required to ensure that a valid sample is taken from the sampling line. The required
quantity of flush water for 1-minute internal flushing is 0.5 litres.

☞

The analysis interval depends directly on the programmed flushing time. If, e.g., a flushing time of 60 seconds

has been set, the actual analysis interval cannot be less than 60 seconds.

External flushing
If very short analysis intervals are required, or if a very long (several metres) sampling line or a line with a large
diameter are used, an external flush valve should be installed upstream of the Testomat® 2000 SO

3

2-

. The external
flush valve has to be connected to the "Flush” outlet. The external flushing time for the valve depends, just as the
flushing time for unit flushing does, on the length and diameter of the supply line to the Testomat® 2000 SO

3

2-

.

Interval pause

If the analysis is triggered via a timer, the interval between two analyses (plus flushing time) is determined by the
interval pause. The shortest interval can be 0 minutes. In this case, analyses are carried out continuously. The longest
interval is 99 minutes.

Limit value monitoring

It is possible to program the limit values on a continuous scale. The limit value range
depends on the used reagent type and the programmed unit.

Example:

Number of measuring points

1 2

Function LV1 1, 2 or 3 exceeds upper

limit value

upper LV Measuring

point 1

1., 2. or 3 exceeds upper
limit value

Function LV2 1., 2. or 3 exceeds upper

limit value

lower LV Measuring

point 2

1., 2. or 3 exceeds upper
limit value

Two limit value outputs are available for monitoring. The functions of these outputs can be programmed independently
of each other.

Two limit values:

1 LV1 = Limit value 1

2 LV2 = Limit value 2

Two measuring points:

1 LV1 = Measuring point 1

2 LV2 = Measuring point 2

If the limit value LV1 has been exceeded, the limit value control display LV1 lights up RED and the relay output LV1
reacts as programmed in the switch function. If this limit value has not been exceeded, the display lights up GREEN.
The same applies for the limit value LV2.

If the unit is used for monitoring two limit values,

the limit value outputs are permanently allocated

to these limit values!

If the unit is used for monitoring two measuring
points, the limit value outputs are permanenty
allocated to these measuring points!

M E

Analysis (1,2,3) 1

Hysteresis

The respective limit value output only switches after the 1st, 2nd or 3rd limit value
has been exceeded (suppression of the first or the second measured value).
This increases the reliability of the analysis evaluation, e.g. after the measuring
point has been switched over or if the sampling line has not been flushed sufficiently. The hystereses of the two
outputs LV1 and LV2 can be set independently of each other.
Function: A further analysis is carried out immediately after the limit value has been exceeded for a hysteresis of 2.
The respective output only reacts if the limit value of this analysis is exceeded again. If a hysteresis of 3 has been set,
the respective output only reacts after the limit value has been exceeded for the 3rd time in succession.
(The basic setting for LV1 and LV2 is 1)

Logic functions of the limit value outputs LV1 and LV2

Schematic representation of the logic functions

Switch function 0, duration

If the limit value LV1 or LV2 has been
exceeded, the output relay LV1 or LV2 reacts.
If the measured value falls below the limit value
LV1 or LV2 without lock out, the relevant relay
drops out again.

Switch function 1, impulse
If the measured value exceeds the limit value
LV1 or LV2, the relevant output reacts for a
settable time t.
The respective output always remains switched
for the set time, irrespective of how long the
limit value has been exceeded.

Switch function 2, interval
If the limit value has been exceeded, the
respective output switches at intervals with the
settable impulse/pause time t.

Switch function 3, two-point
If the upper limit value LV1 has been exceeded, the output relay LV1 switches. If the lower limit value LV2 falls below
the set limit, the output relay LV1 drops out again.
The output relay LV2 switches according to the programmed switch function.

☞

This function is only possible if different values are used for the limit values LV1 and LV2 with just one
measuring point. For example, LV1 = 0.2 mg/l and LV2 = 0.3 mg/l.

Function IN1

External measuring point switch-over when monitoring 2 measuring points without automatic measuring point switch­over. If the external measuring point switch-over has been programmed, a respective controller (e.g. timer) has to be
connected to IN1 (volt-free contact required!). The active status of IN1 has to be programmed accordingly.

Water meter

It is necessary to connect a water meter to input IN2 for quantity-dependent
analysis triggering. Program the corresponding water meter rating under the menu
item "WATER METER”.

Alarm / Message

The unit is equipped with an alarm relay output for signalling faults. The events
which mean a fault at the unit or are intended to trigger a message, can either
trigger an alarm (continuous contact) or a message (2-second impulse).
Certain unit faults always trigger an alarm or a message!

The faults are recorded and stored in the error history if the event has been
programmed as an alarm or message. For example, if a low reagent level has not
been programmed as an ALARM or a MESSAGE, it is not registered in the error
history. Up to 20 error messages can be stored. A list of these errors can be
opened in the information menu. The information stored per event is the time
(day, month, year and hour) and the type of the error.

☞

The error messages are lost after a power failure.

Function AUX

The AUX relay output can be programmed for the following control functions:

- As a function output for the contact with programmable duration prior to
or during the analysis or during the open period of the inlet valve.
(Also see Function characteristics, Operating modes, Analysis cycle)

This contact can be used, e.g., to control a feed pump for sampling. It is also
possible to control the cooling water inlet of an upstream cooler via a solenoid valve. This way the cooling water only
flows when required, i.e. when an analysis is being carried out.

Service II

The service II menu contains various functions for monitoring the operation of the
unit.

☞

The functions in the service II menu directly influence the operation and

monitoring functions of the unit!

Calibration
Calibration can, e.g., be carried out to compensate for negative influences caused
by foreign ions. A standard solution or the value of the sample water determined
via a laboratory analysis is required for this.

Calibration value: Enter the known value of the standard solution or the determined value of the sample water.
Start calibration: Select menu item “Calibrate Start” and press the “ENTER” key: A reference measurement ist

carried out and the correction factor is determined. The calibration procedure with a standard solution can be found
under “Maintenance / Monitoring/Calibration with standard”

.

Correction factor: It is also possible to enter a calculatively determined factor for the correction of the display. The
current factor is displayed after calibration.

Reset operating time
After replacing the dosing pump or the measuring chamber holder, it is possible
to reset the current operating time to 0 hours.

5. Now fill the chamber complete until overflowing. The inlet valve now closes (LED “IN” is OFF).

This first filling is for flushing and chamber will be drained off.

6. After the outlet valve is closed (LED “OUT” is OFF), fill the chamber again (LED “IN” lights up).

The water level inside the chamber sinks to the sample volume level.

7. Analysis is running and at least the calibration factor will be calculated by the Testomat 2000®.
