Page 7: Introduction
Page 7 INTRODUCTION 1.1. SYSTEM DESCRIPTION OF THE N410-P Functions and features The batch controller model N410-P is a microprocessor driven instrument designed for batching and filling of small and large batch size quantities. This product has been designed with a focus on: ▪... - Page 8 Page 8 Control outputs ▪ Two mechanic relay outputs are mainly used for one or two-stage batch control processes. The function of the relay R1 (SPDT) is fixed and is set for batch control (Batch). In most applications, this relay is used as the main batch control relay. The function of the relay R2 (SPDT) is configurable in the setup menu and can be set as batch relay (Batch) or as an output for two-stage control (Preclose), or as an alarm output (Alarm), or as a scaled pulse output (Pulse).

Page 11 2.3. OPERATOR INFORMATION AND FUNCTIONS In general, the N410-P will always function at Operator level. The information displayed and the functional keys available are dependent upon the SETUP-settings and the active function. NOTE: If the key-sign is displayed, FW-4100-000014-001-EN the particular key(s) or functions are not accessible! ▪... - Page 12 Page 12 ▪ Interrupting and ending the batch process 1. Press HOLD: Interrupts the batch process temporarily, the pump stays on and the actual data is kept while the display shows HOLD (flashing). 2. Press HOLD, START, The interrupted batch is resumed. Press HOLD, RESET: Stops the batch process at any time, the batch sequence is ended as a completed batch and the remaining quantity of the batch is ignored.

Page 14 INSTALLATION 3.1. GENERAL DIRECTIONS • Installation, electrical wiring, start-up and maintenance of this instrument may only be carried out by authorized and trained personnel. Personnel must read and understand this Instruction Manual before carrying out any work. • The N410-P may only be operated by personnel who are authorized and trained by the operator of the facility. -
Page 15: Installation / Surrounding Conditions
Page 15 3.2.2. INSTALLATION / SURROUNDING CONDITIONS Take the relevant IP classification of the enclosure into account (see manufactures plate). Even with an IP67 (Type 4X) enclosure, the unit should not be exposed to harsh unnecessary harsh weather conditions. When used in extreme cold surroundings or varying climatic conditions, take the necessary precautions against moisture by placing a dry sachet of silica gel, for example, inside the control cabinet. -

Page 17: Terminal Connectors
Page 17 Cable and wire selection The unit complies with the Directives and Standards for Electro Magnetic Interference. For a reliable signal transfer and prevention of external signal interference (crosstalk), for signal wiring, the recommendation is made for a shielded (twisted pair) cable which meets at least the Category 5 cable standard. - Page 18 Page 18 Sine-wave signal (Coil): The N410-P can be connected to flowmeters that have a coil output signal. With SETUP 6.1 two sensitivity levels can be selected: • COIL LO: sensitivity from about 120mVp-p. • COIL HI: sensitivity from about 20mVp-p Figure 13: Terminal connections - Coil signal input (typical) Reed-switch: The N410-P is suitable for use with flowmeters which have a reed-switch.
- Page 19 Page 19 Pulse-signal NPN / NPN LP: The N410-P is suitable for use with sensors which have a NPN output signal. For reliable pulse detection, the pulse amplitude has to go above 1.2V. Signal setting NPN-LP employs a low-pass signal noise filter, which limits the maximum input frequency - read par. 4.2.8. Figure 16: Terminal connections - NPN signal input (typical) Active signal: If a sensor gives an active signal (read chapter 3).
- Page 20 Page 20 Terminal 8 - 9; External control - Start With this function, the batch controller can be STARTED remotely. The input must be switched with a potential free contact to the GND-terminal number 8 for at least 100msec. Figure 19: Terminal connections - External start (typical) Terminal 8-10;...
- Page 21 Page 21 Terminal 8-12; External Alarm: With this function an external alarm release can be connected to the N410-P. A running batch will be interrupted immediately and will be blocked till the alarm status is initialized. Initialization is only accepted if the input is released. Initialization can be done by pressing the RESET button or by switching terminal 11 (EXTERNAL RESET) to terminal 8.
