Important notes Usage for the intended purpose The conductivity controller LRR 1-50, LRR 1-51 in conjunction with conductivity electrodes LRG 1.-.. and conductivity transmitter LRGT 1.-.. is used as conductivity controller and limit switch, for instance in steam boilers, (pressurized) hot-water installations as well as condensate and feedwater tanks. The conductivity controller indicates when the MAX conductivity limit is reached and opens or closes a continuous blowdown valve.
MAX alarm will be raised and the continuous blowdown valve is motored into the OPERA- TING position. If the malfunction occurs only in the conductivity controller LRR 1-50, LRR 1-51 a MAX alarm will be raised, the continuous blowdown controller is motored into the OPERATING position and the system is re-started.
Important notes – continued – Safety note The equipment must only be installed, wired and commissioned by qualified and competent staff. Retrofitting and maintenance work must only be performed by qualified staff who - through adequate training - have achieved a recognised level of competence. Danger The terminal strips of the equipment are live during operation.
(pressurised) hotwater installations. VdTÜV Bulletin “Water Monitoring 100” The conductivity controller LRR 1-50, LRR 1-51 in conjunction with conductivity electrode LRG 1.-.. and conductivity transmitter LRGT 1.-.. is type approved according to VdTÜV Bulletin “Wasserüberwachung (= Water Monitoring) 100”. The VdTÜV Bulletin “Water Monitoring 100” states the requirements made on water monitoring equipment.

In control cabinet: Wiring the conductivity controller – continued – Wiring diagram for conductivity controller LRR 1-51 OPEN CLOSED OPERATING Actuator EF L2 must remain live after the burner (stand- by operation) - and therefore also the supply voltage for the controller - is shut down until the actuator has closed the continuous blow- down valve.
RC combinations as specified by the manu- facturer. When used as conductivity limiter the conductivity controller LRR 1-50, LRR 1-51 does not interlock automatically when the readings exceed the MAX limit.
In control cabinet: Wiring the conductivity controller – continued – Connection of conductivity transmitter LRGT 1.-.. To connect the equipment use screened multi-core control cable with a min. conductor size 0.5 mm², e. g. LiYCY 4 x 0.5 mm , max. length 100 m. Wire terminal strip in accordance with the wiring diagram.
Note that the recommended control cable is not UV-resistant and, if installed outdoors, must be protected by a UV-resistant plastic tube or cable duct. To connect the conductivity controller LRR 1-50 remove the connector and wire the terminal strip according to the wiring diagram. Fig. 3 Connect the screen only once to the central earthing point (CEP) in the control cabinet.
Changing factory settings Danger The upper terminal strip of the equipment is live during operation. This presents the danger of electric shock! Always cut off power supply to the equipment before mounting, removing or connecting the terminal strips! Switch selection of unit of measurement The electrical conductivity is measured in µS/cm.

TDS (= total dissolved solids) level below the limit. The amount of boiler blowdown can be ascertained by means of the capacity charts for the continuous blowdown valve. Please observe the installation instructions of the GESTRA continuous blowdown valve.
Troubleshooting Indication, diagnosis and remedy Attention Before carrying out the fault diagnosis please check: Supply voltage: Is the equipment supplied with the mains voltage specified on the name plate? Wiring: Is the wiring in accordance with the wiring diagram? Faults indicated by the seven-segment display Error code Error Remedy...
Further notes Action against high frequency interference High frequency interference can occur for example as a result of out-of-phase switching operations. Should such interference occur and lead to sporadic failures, we recommend the following actions in order to suppress any interference. Provide inductive loads with RC combinations according to manufacturer's specification to ensure interference suppression.
