1.0 INTRODUCTION
The Walchem W900 Series controllers offer a high level of exibility in controlling water treatment applications.
• There are four slots that accept a variety of Input/Output Modules, which provides unparalleled versatility. Dual sensor
input modules are available that are compatible with a variety of sensors (two sensors per module):
» Contacting conductivity
» Electrodeless conductivity
» pH
» ORP
» Any Walchem disinfection sensor
» Generic sensor (Ion Selective Electrodes or any type of sensor with a linear voltage output between -2 VDC
and 2 VDC)
• Three analog (4-20 mA) input modules with two, four or six input circuits is also available for use with 2,3 or
4-wire transmitters.
• Two other modules feature two or four isolated analog outputs that may be installed to retransmit sensor input signals
to a chart recorder, datalogger, PLC or other device. They may also be connected to valves, actuators or metering
pumps for linear proportional control or PID control.
• Another module combines two analog (4-20 mA) inputs and four analog outputs.
• Eight Virtual Inputs are congurable in the software, to either allow for calculations based on two real inputs, or to
allow to compare values from two sensors to provide redundancy.
• Eight relay outputs may be set to a variety of control modes:
» On/Off set point control
» Time Proportional control
» Pulse Proportional control (when purchased with Pulse solid state opto outputs)
» Flow Proportional
» PID control (when purchased with Pulse solid state opto outputs)
» Lead/Lag control of up to 6 relays
» Dual set point
» Timer
» Bleed or Feed based on a Water Contactor or Paddlewheel ow meter input
» Feed and Bleed
» Feed and Bleed with Lockout
» Feed as a percent of Bleed
» Feed as a percent of elapsed time
» Daily, Weekly, 2-week or 4-week Biocide timers with pre-bleed and post-add lockout of bleed
» Intermittent sampling for boilers with proportional blowdown, controlling on a trapped sample
» Always on unless interlocked
» Probe Wash timer
» Spike to alternate set point on timed basis
» Target PPM
» PPM Volume
» Diagnostic Alarm triggered by:
• High or Low sensor reading
• No Flow
• Relay output timeout
• Sensor error
Relays are available in several combinations of powered relays, dry contact relays, and pulse solid state opto relays.
Eight Virtual Outputs are congurable in the software, using most of the possible relay or analog output control algorithms, that may be used to interlock or activate actual control outputs.
The standard Ethernet feature provides remote access to the controller’s programming via a PC connected directly, via
a local area network, or via Walchem’s VTouch account management server. It also allows emailing of datalog les
1
(in CSV format, compatible with spreadsheets like Excel) and alarms, to up to eight email addresses. The Modbus
TCP and BACnet remote communications options allow communication with PC-based applications, HMI/SCADA
programs, Building Energy Management systems, Distributed Control Systems (DCS), as well as stand-alone HMI
devices.
Two optional WiFi cards are available, one which allows simultaneous Ethernet and WiFi communications, and one
that increases security by disabling Ethernet when WiFi is enabled. The WiFi can be set to Infrastructure Mode to
provide all the Ethernet functions above, or Ad-Hoc Mode to allow access to the programming wirelessly.
Our USB features provide the ability to upgrade the software in the controller to the latest version. The Cong le feature
allows you to save all the set points from a controller onto a USB ash disk, and then import them into another controller,
making the programming of multiple controllers fast and easy. The data logging feature allows you to save the sensor
readings and relay activation events to a USB ash disk.

3.0 UNPACKING & INSTALLATION
3.1 Unpacking the unit
Inspect the contents of the carton. Please notify the carrier immediately if there are any signs of damage to the controller or
its parts. Contact your distributor if any of the parts are missing. The carton should contain a W900 series controller and an
instruction manual. Any options or accessories will be incorporated as ordered.
3.2 Mounting the electronic enclosure
The controller is supplied with mounting holes on the enclosure. It should be wall mounted with the display at eye
9
level, on a vibration-free surface, utilizing all four mounting holes for maximum stability. Use M6 (1/4” diameter)
fasteners that are appropriate for the substrate material of the wall. The enclosure is NEMA 4X (IP65) rated. The
maximum operating ambient temperature is 122°F (50°C); this should be considered if installation is in a high temperature location. The enclosure requires the following clearances:
Top: 2” (50 mm)
Left: 10” (254 mm)
Right: 4” (102 mm)
Bottom: 7” (178 mm)
3.3 Sensor Installation
Refer to the specic instructions supplied with the sensor being used, for detailed installation instructions.
General Guidelines
Locate the sensors where an active sample of water is available and where the sensors can easily be removed for
cleaning. Position the sensor such that air bubbles will not be trapped within the sensing area. Position the sensor
where sediment or oil will not accumulate within the sensing area.
In-Line Sensor Mounting
In-line mounted sensors must be situated so that the tee is always full and the sensors are never subjected to a
drop in water level resulting in dryness. Refer to Figure 2 for typical installation.
Tap off the discharge side of the recirculation pump to provide a minimum ow of 1 gallon per minute through
the ow switch manifold. The sample must ow into the bottom of the manifold in order to close the ow switch,
and return to a point of lower pressure in order to ensure ow. Install an isolation valve on both sides of the manifold to stop ow for sensor maintenance.
IMPORTANT: To avoid cracking the female pipe threads on the supplied plumbing parts, use no more than 3
wraps of Teon tape and thread in the pipe FINGER tight plus 1/2 turn! Do not use pipe dope to seal the threads
of the ow switch because the clear plastic will crack!
Submersion Sensor Mounting
If the sensors are to be submersed in the process, mount them rmly to the tank, and protect the cable with
plastic pipe, sealed at the top with a cable gland, to prevent premature failure. Place the sensors in an area of good
solution movement.
Sensors should be located such that they respond rapidly to a well-mixed sample of the process water and the
treatment chemicals. If they are too close to the chemical injection point, they will see spikes in concentration
and cycle on and off too frequently. If they are too far away from the chemical injection point, they will respond
too slowly to the concentration changes, and you will overshoot the set point.
The contacting conductivity sensor should be placed as close to the controller as possible, to a maximum
distance of 250 ft. (76 m). Less than 25 ft. (8 m) is recommended. The cable must be shielded from background
electrical noise. Always route low voltage (sensor) signals with at least a 6” (15 cm) separation from AC voltage wiring.
The electrodeless conductivity sensor should be placed as close to the controller as possible, to a maximum
distance of 120 ft. (37 m). Less than 20 ft. (6 m) is recommended. The cable must be shielded from background
electrical noise. Always route low voltage (sensor) signals with at least a 6” (15 cm) separation from AC voltage
wiring. These sensors are affected by the geometry and conductivity of their surroundings, so either maintain 6
inches (15 cm) of sample around the sensor or ensure that any nearby conductive or non-conductive items are
consistently positioned. Do not install the sensor in the path of any electrical current that may be owing in the
solution, as this will shift the conductivity reading.
The amplied pH/ORP/ISE electrode should be placed as close to the controller as possible, to a maximum distance of 1000 feet (305 m) from the controller. A junction box and shielded cable are available to extend the standard 20 foot (6 m) length. pH and ORP electrodes must be installed such that the measuring surfaces will always
remain wet. A U-trap provided in the manifold design should achieve this, even if the sample ow stops. These
10
electrodes also must be installed with the measuring surfaces pointing down; that is 5 degrees above the horizontal,
at a minimum.
The disinfection sensor should be placed as close to the controller as possible, to a maximum distance of 100
feet (30 m) from the controller. A junction box and shielded cable are available to extend the standard 20 foot (6
m) length. The sensor should be mounted such that the measuring surfaces will always stay wet. If the membrane
dries out, it will respond slowly to changing disinfectant values for 24 hours, and if dried out repeatedly, will fail
prematurely. The ow cell should be placed on the discharge side of a circulation pump or downhill from a gravity feed. Flow into the cell must come from the bottom side that has the ¾” x ¼” NPT reducing bushing installed.
The reducing bushing provides the ow velocity required for accurate readings and must not be removed! A “U”
trap should be installed so that if the ow stops, the sensor is still immersed in the water. The outlet of the ow
cell must be plumbed to open atmosphere unless the system pressure is at or below 1 atmosphere. If the ow
through the line cannot be stopped to allow for cleaning and calibration of the sensor, then it should be placed in
a by-pass line with isolation valves to allow for sensor removal. Install the sensor vertically, with the measuring
surface pointing down, at least 5 degrees above horizontal. Flow rate regulation must be done upstream from the
sensor, because any ow restriction downstream can increase the pressure above atmospheric and damage the
membrane cap!
The corrosion sensor should be placed as close to the controller as possible, to a maximum distance of 100 feet
(30 m) from the controller. A junction box and shielded cable (p/n 100084) are available to extend the standard
6 foot (3 m) or 20 foot (6 m) length. The sensor should not be installed unless the o-rings/electrodes that match
the metallurgy to be examined are attached to the steel threaded rods. Standard corrosion electrodes are 5 cm2
surface area. Do not touch the metal electrodes; they should be clean and free of any scratches, oils or contamination to accurately measure the corrosion. The sensor should be mounted horizontally, such that the measuring
surfaces will always stay completely wet. The sensor should ideally be installed in the side branch of a 1” or ¾”
tee, with the ow entering the tee through the top branch and owing away from the base of the sensor, towards
the tips of the electrodes. A constant ow rate is required, at a minimum of 1.5 gpm (5.7 lpm) with an ideal ow
rate of 5 gpm (19 lpm). If more than one metal is to be used, the most noble metal should be rst.
Important Boiler Sensor Installation Notes: (refer to typical installation drawing)
1. Make sure the minimum water level in the boiler is at least 4-6 inches above the skimmer blowdown line. If
the skimmer line is closer to the surface, it is likely that steam will be drawn into the line instead of boiler
water. The skimmer line must also be installed above the highest tube.
2. Maintain a 3/4 inch minimum pipe ID with no ow restrictions from the tap for the boiler skimmer blow-
down line to the electrode. If the ID is reduced below 3/4 inch, then ashing will occur beyond that point
and the conductivity reading will be low and erratic. Minimize the usage of tees, valves, elbows or unions
between the boiler and the electrode.
3. A manual shut off valve should be installed so that the electrode can be removed and cleaned. This valve
must be a full port valve in order to avoid a ow restriction.
4. Keep the distance between the tap for the boiler skimmer line to the electrode as short as possible, to a maximum of 10 feet.
5. Mount the electrode in the side branch of a cross in a horizontal run of pipe. This will minimize entrapment
of steam around the electrode and will allow any solids to pass through.
6. There MUST be a ow restriction after the electrode and/or control valve in order to provide back pressure. This ow restriction will be either a ow control valve or an orice union. The amount of the ow restriction will affect the blowdown rate as well, and should be sized accordingly.
7. Install the motorized ball valve or solenoid valve per the manufacturer’s instructions.
For best results, align the hole in the conductivity electrode such that the direction of water ow is through the
hole.

Guide to Sizing Blowdown Valves and Orice Plates
1. Determine the Rate of Steam Production in Pounds per Hour:
Either read off the boiler name plate (water-tube boilers) or Calculate from horsepower rating (re-tube
boilers): HP x 34.5 = lbs/hr. Example: 100 HP = 3450 lbs/hr.
2. Determine the Concentration Ratio (BASED ON FEEDWATER)
A water treatment chemical specialist should determine the desired number of cycles of concentration. This
is the ratio of TDS in the boiler water to TDS in the feedwater. Note that feedwater means the water that is
fed to the boiler from the deaerator and includes makeup water plus condensate return. Example: 10 cycles
of concentration has been recommended
3. Determine the Required Blowdown Rate in Pounds Per Hour
Blowdown Rate = Steam Production / (Concentration Ratio –1) Example: 3450/(10-1) = 383.33 lbs./hr
4. Determine if Continuous or Intermittent Sampling is Required
Use intermittent sampling when the boiler operation or loading is intermittent, or on boilers where the
required blowdown rate is less than 25% of the smallest available ow control valve or less than the ow
through the smallest orice. See the graphs on the next page.
Use continuous sampling when the boiler is operating 24 hours per day and the required blowdown rate is
more than 25% of the smallest applicable ow control valve or orice. See the graphs on the next page.
Use of a ow control valve will give you the best control of the process, since the ow rate can be easily
adjusted. The dial on the valve also gives you a visual indication if the ow rate has been changed. If the
valve clogs, it can be opened to clear the obstruction, and closed to the previous position.
If an orice plate is used, you must install a valve downstream from the orice in order to ne tune the ow
rate and provide additional back pressure in many applications.
Example: An 80 psi boiler has a Required Blowdown Rate of 383.33 lbs./hr. The maximum ow rate of the
smallest ow control valve is 3250 lbs./hr. 3250 x 0.25 = 812.5 which is too high for continuous sampling.
Using an orice, the ow rate through the smallest diameter plate is 1275 lbs./hr. This is too high for continu-
ous sampling.
5. Determine the Orice or Flow Control Valve Size for this Blowdown Rate
Use the following graphs to select a ow control device:

3.5 Electrical installation
The various standard wiring options are shown in gure 1, below. Your controller will arrive from the factory prewired or ready for hardwiring. Depending on your conguration of controller options, you may be required to hardwire some or all of the input/output devices. Refer to gures 6 through 18 for circuit board layout and wiring.
Note: when wiring the optional ow meter contactor input, the 4-20 mA outputs or a remote ow switch, it is advis-
able to use stranded, twisted, shielded pair wire between 22-26 AWG. Shield should be terminated at the controller at
the most convenient shield terminal.
CAUTION
1.There are live circuits inside the controller even when the power switch on the front panel is in the OFF posi-
tion! The front panel must never be opened before power to the controller is REMOVED!
If your controller is prewired, it is supplied with an 8 foot, 14 AWG power cord with NEMA 5-15P USA style
plug. A tool (#2 Phillips driver) is required to open the front panel.
2.When mounting the controller, make sure there is clear access to the disconnecting device!
3.The electrical installation of the controller must be done by trained personnel only and conform to all applica-
ble National, State and Local codes!
4.Proper grounding of this product is required. Any attempt to bypass the grounding will compromise the safety
of persons and property.
5.Operating this product in a manner not specied by Walchem may impair the protection provided by the equip-
ment.
