    This necessitates the use of shielded cable for the connection of the electrode. A coaxial cable with an additional outer layer of carbon must be used to ensure a steady pH signal. The DPH-64 converts the electrode signal with a precision input amplifier and then further processes the electrical signal for display, alarm, signal and set point controls.
  • Page 6 ORP, temperature control or timer output is required. Default label names for these outputs are S1, S2, S3, S4 and P1, P2. The DPH-64 is shipped with its basic setup of all four relays set point controlled for up or down dosing.
  • Page 7 DPH-64. An “activity indicator” in the top right corner of the LCD display continu- ously averages the electrode input and displays an increase, decrease or steady pH / mV.
  • Page 8: Installation

    The DPH-64 should be installed near the treatment plant. Maximum length of the co-axial cable used should not exceed 10 metres because of the very high input impedance characteristic of a pH electrode.

    Plug the power cord into the supply and switch on the DPH-64. The LCD display lights up and shows pH and Time. Some LED’s may light up depending on the electrode or simulator input present.

    4-20mA to a data logger or central monitor system. A real current calibration is carried out by connecting a multi meter across the terminals (no termination resistor is required) to measure the mA current. PAGE 12 DPH-64 Instruction manual...
  • Page 13 The meter can also be connected in series in an already existing installation. (See Fig.8) Connect the multimeter to the 4-20mA terminals of the DPH-64. Select the DC current range 20 or 200mA of the meter. Calibrating 4-20mA with a multimeter.

    The last option RESET TO DEFAULTS if activated returns all functions of the DPH-64 to the default configuration as outlined on page 10. Some options obviously are exclusive to each other such as S1 can only operate either as a timed relay or as a dedicated timer. S2 will operate as a normal setpoint output for up/down dosing or as an alarm with a combined low and high setpoint.

    DELAY only operates when normal setpoint for S3 and S4 is selected. This feature will eliminate possible hunting between metering pumps or dosing valves when treating effluent with an acid and alkali neutraliser. A time delay from 1 to 5 minutes can be selected.
