Accessing Wiring Terminals The following instructions show how to temporarily place the display cover in a raised position to allow for easy access to wiring terminals. Post Holes Cover Screws Display Posts Ribbon Cable Unscrew the 4 cover screws. Hold on to cover when loosening final screw to prevent it from dropping. Be mindful of ribbon cable connection when moving the display cover as this cable can be damaged if excessive force is applied.
Wiring connection diagrams for sensors and outputs are also available on the HydroACT display by going to Menu > (Select sensor or output) > Options > Connections.
Note: Press the Next button to navigate through the 3 setup screens shown below. Relay Setup Example settings provided below that will result in Relay #8 closing when any alarm on the HydroACT analyzer or Chlorine probe goes active. See HydroACT manual for other relay programming options.
Assembling the Chlorine Probe Once the probe is assembled it will need to remain wet in order to prevent the membrane from drying out and becoming blocked. To prevent air bubbles from getting into the electrolyte, do not shake the bottle. It is also recommended to store the electrolyte bottle upside-down on its cap.
Proper Positioning of Probe into the Flow Cell Probe Chamber Once the probe is assembled, insert the probe through the compression fitting and tighten the fitting around the probe so it is snug but still allows the probe to slide through when pressure is applied.
Calibration Procedure 1. When a new membrane cap is installed, it may take up to 30 minutes before the chlorine probe starts to register a reading (>0 mg/l). Although the after 2 hours the reading should be mostly stabilized (80- 90%),it is recommended to allow the chlorine probe with new membrane cap to operate for a minimum of 6 hours before performing an initial calibration.
Troubleshooting Reading Error (Reading 1. Check wiring is connected to the correct terminals as detailed on showing 0.00 mg/l in red page 7. Ensure the insulation on the wiring is stripped back far numbers along with “Error” enough to not interfere with the connection. displayed on Sensor Overview) 2.
