Page 9: Series S100 Ro System Controller Installation And Setup
Series S100 RO System Controller Installation and Setup Introduction The Applied Membranes Inc. Series 100 controller is a state of the art control system for commercial and industrial reverse osmosis systems. The Series 100 is a microprocessor controlled system that can monitor pressure and level switches. - Page 10 Installation and Service Manual – L Series Reverse Osmosis System Switch Inputs Switch inputs are connected to P2. The connections for these inputs are not polarity sensitive and can be connected to either terminal. The switch inputs should be dry contact closures only. CAUTION: Applying voltage to these terminals will damage the controller.
