Operation TresCon Relay functions 5.3.1 General information The analyzer has 12 relays that are independent of each other and can be linked to the analyzer modules. The following functions are possible for a relay output: Proportional controller (Frequency controller or Pulse-width controller, see section 5.3.2)
Page 101
TresCon Operation Proportional controllers can be used in the following way: Regulation with a single relay: a regulating range with Start value and End value is defined. No regulation takes place above and below the range of regulation (see page 5-31).
Page 102
Operation TresCon Pulse-width controller The regulation of the pulse width is used, e.g. for controlling valves. Pulse-width regulation changes the duration of operation (t ) of the output signal. Depending on the position of the measured value in the proportional range, the relay is operated for a longer or shorter time period.
Page 103
TresCon Operation Frequency controller Switching frequency control is used, e.g. for controlling dosing pumps. In contrast to the pulse-width controller, the frequency controller is not modulated by the pulse width, but by the switching frequency of the output signal. Depending on the position of the measured value in the proportional range, the relay is switched more often or less often.
Page 104
Operation TresCon Characteristic curves Through the selection of the Start value and End value, the proportional controller can be operated with a positive or negative characteristic curve. Positive characteristic curve: Select the End value to be higher than the Start value.
Page 105
TresCon Operation Positive characteristic The proportional regulation range begins above the initial value. If the curve proportional range is undercut or exceeded, the selected behavior comes into force. Pulse width v [%] Cycle duration T Of f Proportional band Time Measured value 2 Fig.
