Safety

Overview
Watlow Anafaze has made efforts to ensure the reliability and safety of the CLS Controller and to recommend safe usage practices in systems applications. Please note that, in any application, failures can occur. These failures may result in full control outputs or other outputs which may cause damage to or unsafe conditions in the equipment or process connected to the CLS Controller.
Good engineering practices, electrical codes, and insurance regulations require that you use independent external safety devices to prevent potentially dangerous or unsafe conditions. Assume that the Watlow Anafaze CLS Controller can fail with outputs full on, outputs full off, or that other unexpected conditions can occur.
Install high or low temperature protection in systems where an overtemperature or undertemperature fault condition could present a fire hazard or other hazard. Failure to install temperature control protection where a potential hazard exists could result in damage to equipment and property, and injury to personnel.
The CLS includes a reset circuit that sets the control outputs off or to the data stored in memory if the microprocessor resets--normally the result of a power failure and power return. If a memory-based restart will be unsafe for your process, program the CLS Controller to restart with outputs off. For additional safety, program the computer or other host device to automatically reload the desired operating constants or process values on return of operating power. However, these safety features do not eliminate the need for external, independent safety devices in potentially dangerous or unsafe conditions.
Watlow Anafaze also offers ANASOFT

Introduction

The CLS is a modular control system with up to 16 fully independent loops of PID control (16 CLS). It functions as a stand-alone controller; the CLS 1/8 DIN front panel has a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) and touch keypad for local display and local parameter entry. You can also use it as the key element in a computer-supervised data acquisition and control system; the CLS can be locally or remotely controlled via an RS-232 or RS-485 serial communications interface.
The CLS features include:
Direct Connection of Mixed Thermocouple Sensors: Directly connect most thermocouples with the CLS versatile hardware. Thermocouple inputs feature reference junction compensation, linearization, PV offset calibration to correct for sensor inaccuracies, T/ C upscale break detection, and a choice of Fahrenheit or Celsius display.
Introduction
Resistive Temperature Detector Sensors are Standard Inputs: Two types of standard three wire 100 ohm platinum DIN curve sensor are standard inputs for the CLS. (To use this input, order the CLS with scaling resistors.)
Automatic Scaling for Linear Analog Inputs: The CLS automatically scales linear inputs used with other industrial process sensors. Simply enter two measurement points. For example, to scale a PSI sensor enter the endpoints: Low PV is 10 PSI, while High PV is 100 PSI. All other values for that loop will automatically be in PSI.
Dual Outputs Standard: The CLS includes dual control outputs for each loop, with independent control constants for each output.
Independently Selectable PID Output Modes: You can set each control output to ON/OFF, Time Proportioning, Serial DAC, or Distributed Zero Crossing mode. You can set each output control mode for ON/OFF, P, PI, or PID control with reverse or direct action.
Flexible Alarm Outputs: Independently set high/low process alarms and a high/low deviation band alarm for each loop. Alarms can activate a digital output by themselves, or they can be grouped with other alarms to activate an output.
Alarm or Control Outputs: You can set high/low deviation and high/ low process setpoints to operate digital outputs as on/off control functions instead of alarms. (The control function has no alarm notification or global alarm output.)
Global Alarm Output: When any alarm is triggered, the Global Alarm Output is also triggered, and it stays on until you acknowledge it.
CLS User’s Guide 5
Introduction
Watchdog Timer: The CLS watchdog timer output notifies you of system failure. You can use it to hold a relay closed while the controller is running, so you are notified if the microprocessor shuts down.
Front Panel or Computer Operation: Set up and run the CLS from the front panel or from a local or remote computer. Watlow Anafaze offers ANASOFT, our IBM AT or IBM-PC compatible software you can use to operate the CLS. ANASOFT has these features:
Process Overviews
Parameter Setup
Graphic Trend Plotting
Data Logging
Multiple Job Storage: Store up to 8 jobs in protected memory, and access them locally by entering a single job number or remotely via digital inputs. Each job is a set of operating conditions, including setpoints and alarms.
Non-Linear Output Curves Standard: Select either of two non-linear output curves for each control output.
Autotuning Makes Setup Simple: Use the Autotune feature to set up your system quickly and easily. The CLS internal expert system table finds the correct PID parameters for your process.
Pulse Counter Input Standard: Use the pulse counter input for precise control of motor or belt speed.

Installation

Installation
These installation instructions are written for non-technical users; if you are an electrician or you are technically proficient, they may seem simple to you. Please at least skim all of the instructions, to make sure you don't miss anything vital.
This section explains installation for the CLS only. If you are installing another Watlow Anafaze product (such as an SDAC), see the manual shipped with it to learn how to install it.
These symbols are used throughout the rest of this manual:
DANGER
This symbol warns you about hazards to human life.
WARNING
This symbol warns you of possible damage to property or equipment.
NOTE
This symbol denotes information you must know in order to proceed.
CLS User’s Guide 13
Installation

Precautions and Warnings

DANGER
Shut off power to your process before you install the CLS. High voltage may be present even when power is turned off! Reduce the danger of electric shock after installation by mounting the CLS in an enclosure that prevents per­sonal contact with electrical components.
The CLS measures input signals that are not normally ref­erenced to ground, so the CLS inputs and other signal lines can have high voltage present even when power is turned off--for example, if you inadvertently short a thermocouple to the AC power line.
WARNING
During installation and wiring, place temporary covers over the housing slots and the rear of the CLS so dirt, pieces of wire, et cetera don't fall through the slots. Remove these covers after installation.
Install the CLS so the slots in the housing receive unre­stricted airflow after installation. Make sure that other equipment does not block airflow to the housing slots.
Use #20 or #22 AWG wires and trim wire insulation to 1/4” (5 mm). Wire should fit inside the terminal with no bare wire exposed, to prevent contact between wires and the grounded case. Tin any stranded wire.
Support power, input and output cables to reduce strain on the terminals and to prevent wire removal.

CLS Mounting Procedure

Mounting Environment

NOTE
Mount the controller before you mount the terminal block or do any wiring. The controller's placement affects place­ment and wiring considerations for the other components of your system.
Install the CLS in a location free from excessive (>50ºC) heat, dust, and unauthorized handling. The controller can mount in any panel material up to 0.2" thick. (Make sure there is enough clearance for mounting brackets and terminal blocks; the controller extends 6.2" behind the panel face and the screw brackets extend 0.5" above and below it.)
Steps:
1. Cut a hole 3.630+0.020" long by 1.800+0.020" tall in the panel. This figure shows the mounting hole. (The figure is not a template.) Cut carefully; the 0.020" (0.5 mm) tolerances don't allow much room for error. Use a punch, nibbler, or jigsaw, and file the edges of the hole.
16 CLS User’s Guide
2. Insert the controller into the hole through the front of the panel.
3. Screw the top and bottom clips in place: insert the screw's lip into the cutout in the metal housing just behind the front panel. Tighten the screw.
4. If you expect much panel vibration, use a rear support for the CLS and its interconnecting cables.

TB-18 Mounting Instructions

These steps describe how to mount the TB-18 on the rear of the CLS. (Please follow these steps exactly, so you do not damage either the terminal block or the controller.)
1. Install the cable support on the underside of the CLS. The TB-18 was shipped to you in a plastic bag. The bag also contained a cable tie (the long plastic strip) and a cable tie mount (the square plastic piece with one sticky side).
a. Stick the cable tie mount to the underside of the CLS. Install it
b. Thread the cable tie through the hole in the cable tie mount.
Installation
in a spot that won't block the vents.
When you're finished wiring the outputs, it should look like this illustration.
2. Next, wire outputs to the terminal block. (For help, see Wiring Out­puts later in this chapter.) Route wires through the cable support, leaving about 9" of wire between the TB-18 and the support.
3. Gently slide the female part of the terminal block into the 50-pin header on the rear of the controller, as shown here.
WARNING
Do not connect power to the CLS now. Test the unit first, as explained in the Power Wiring and Controller Test section.

TB-50 Mounting Instructions

These steps tell you how to mount the TB-50. (Please follow these steps exactly, so you dont damage the terminal block, the ribbon cable, or the controller.)
1. Choose a mounting location. Be sure there is enough clearance to install and remove the TB-50; it measures 3.4" long X 3.2" wide X
1.27" tall.
2. Watlow Anafaze shipped the TB-50 to you in an antistatic bag. Make sure these parts are also in the bag:
Five plastic standoffs.
Five 6-32 screws.
Five cable tie wraps.
One 50-pin ribbon cable.
Five ribbon cable clamps.
3. Snap four of the plastic standoffs into the four mounting holes on the TB-50.
There are also four smaller holes on the terminal board, as shown here. These holes are for the cable tie wraps--the plastic standoffs wont fit them. Youll use these holes to secure wiring to the termi­nal block. (See
Wiring Outputs
in this chapter for help installing
cable tie wraps.)

4. Place the TB-50 where you will mount it and use a pencil to trace around the standoffs.
5. Drill and tap #6-32 holes in the locations you marked.
6. Place the TB-50 where you will mount it. Insert the #6 screws in the standoffs and tighten them.
NOTE
Save the cable tie wraps, ribbon cable, and ribbon cable clamps. Youll use them when you wire outputs to the TB­50 and when you connect the ribbon cable.
WARNING
Do not connect power to the CLS now. Test the unit first, as explained in the Power Wiring and Controller Test section.

General Wiring Recommendations

Use the cables below or their equivalent. For best results, use appropriate materials, proper installation techniques and the correct equipment. For example, choose wire type by function, installation requirements, and the likelihood of mechanical or electrical problems at your installation.

WARNING
Never wire bundles of low power controller circuits next to bundles of high power AC wiring. Instead, physically sepa­rate high power circuits from the controller. If possible, install high voltage AC power circuits in a separate panel.
AWG
20 CLS User’s Guide
Use stranded wire. Solid wire is used for fixed service; it makes
intermittent connections when you move it for maintenance.
Use #20 or #22 AWG wire. Larger or smaller sizes may be difficult
to install, may break easily, or may cause intermittent connections.
Use shielded wire. (The electrical shield helps protect the CLS from
electrical noise.) Connect one end of the input wiring shield to the CLS panel's 120 Vac panel ground, and connect one end of the out­put wiring shield to the CLS panel's 120 Vac panel ground. (Some installations may require a different shield configuration. Contact Watlow Anafaze for more information if these instructions do not apply to your system.)
For more noise suppression measures, see
Noise Suppression
.

Grounding

Installation
Connect the CLS chassis to an external ground at only one point, to avoid ground loops that can cause instrument errors or malfunctions. Since the CLS uses a non-isolated measurement system, it has the following connections to power supply common:
Analog common TB1 pins 5, 6, 11, & 12
Reference common, TB1 pin 17
Communications ground (TB1 pins 23 & 24) if using RS-232
Power supply ground, TB2 pin 2
Control common (TB-18 pin 2; TB-50 pin 3 and 4)
Watlow Anafaze strongly recommends that you:
Do not connect any one of these pins to earth ground. Do not tie
them together externally.
Isolate outputs through solid state relays, where possible.
Isolate RTDs or “bridge” type inputs from ground, if used.
Isolate digital inputs from ground through solid state relays. If you
can't do that, then make sure the digital input is the only place that one of the above pins connects to ground.
If you are using RS-232 from an un-isolated host, don't connect any
other power common point to earth ground.

Installation

Thermocouple Wiring

Use 18 or 20 AWG thermocouple (T/C) extension wire for all the T/C inputs.
NOTE
Most thermocouple wire is solid unshielded wire. Use shielded wire if required at your installation; ground one end only.
WARNING
The CLS uses a floating ground system. Therefore:
Isolate input devices or host computers connected through communications cables (like RS-232) from earth ground.
Use ungrounded thermocouples with the thermocouple sheath electrically connected to earth ground.
Use optically isolated RS-232 devices to isolate earth grounded host computers from CLSs.
When you use grounded T/Cs, tie the thermocouple shields to a common earth ground in one place. Otherwise any common mode voltages that exceed 5 volts may cause incorrect readings or damage to the controller.

Input Wiring

WARNING
The 16CLS has single ended inputs, offering little protec­tion from common mode voltage sources. Therefore Watlow Anafaze highly recommends that you use ungrounded thermocouples with the external thermocou­ple sheath electrically connected to earth ground.
You can use 400 to 500' of thermocouple extension wire, depending on wire type and wire size, and keep to accuracy and source impedance specifications. Be sure to install thermocouple wiring in a separate conduit away from AC power (the 120 Vac control supply) and high power (240 Vac or higher) wiring.
Use multicolored stranded shielded cable for analog inputs. Watlow Anafaze recommends that you use #20 AWG wire. (If the sensor manufacturer requires it, you can also use #22 or #24 AWG wiring.) Most inputs use a shielded twisted pair; some require a 3 wire input.
