    I. INITIAL INSPECTION and ASSEMBLY Carefully unpack the instrument and accessories. Inspect for damages made in shipment. If any damage is found, notify your Jenco representative immediately. All packing materials should be saved until satisfactory operation is confirmed. MOUNTING PROCEDURE 1.
  • Page 4 Cleaning the instrument: 1. Be sure to remove the power before attempting to clean the meter. 2. Use a lint free cloth and clean water or neutral detergent. 3. Wipe the outer surface of the instrument only. 4. Wipe-dry the instrument before powering again.

    The system also has an isolated 4-20mA analog output, offset and span configurable for Conductivity/TDS display. The model 6308CT comes with a RS485 interface which can easily let the user log all data (from multiple model 6308 or 6309) with an IBM PC/AT compatible computer.

    halfway to the liquid. If possible do not allow the probes to touch any solid object in the solution. There should be no air bubbles around the probes either. Shaking or moving the probes vigorously before recording any measurement will dislodge any bubbles formed in the probes.

    For long-term storage, after rinsing the probe thoroughly, the exterior body should be wiped dry before storing it. IV. MODEL 6308CT MODES A. NORMAL MODE Turning ON the unit will always display Conductivity in normal mode.
  • Page 12 For this reason, the model 6308CT allows the user to output conductivity in either raw or compensated form. If the user Temperature Coefficient (TC) is set to 0.00% then an uncompensated Conductivity is output to the screen.

The default factor of 0.5 is only useful for a coarse estimate of TDS. Temperature and Conductivity (or TDS) are always simultaneously displayed in the graphic LCD screen in normal mode.

    B. CALIBRATION/SETTING MODE Pressing the [CAL/VIEW] key for about 2 seconds during normal display mode will bring-up the first page of 6 pages of the Calibration/Setting mode. Pressing [CAL/VIEW] key will switch to the next page until the last page, where pressing [CAL/VIEW] again will return the user to main display mode.

    b.USER SETTING page You will only see this page if the unit is not password locked. This page is just a warning, telling you that all relays are frozen, and that you can calibrate and change the settings. Note: Frozen means all the relays and the analog out will maintain their last state until the user returns to main display mode.
  • Page 17 3. REF. TEMP. – If the Temperature Coefficient (TC) is not zero then the model 6308CT will use the value here to calculate and display the compensated conductivity or TDS. The display will be the value as if the temperature is the Reference Temperature.

    Before reading the sample (unknown solution): 1. Clean the probe thoroughly. 2. Move to CONDUCTIVITY CALIBRATION page. 3. Set the RANGE to the approximate range of the solution. 4. If you want a compensated reading, input the most similar Temperature Coefficient of the sample or use the default of 2.00%. Set the Temperature coefficient to 0.00% if you want just the raw uncompensated conductivity.

RELAY2(action) - The action for this relay is changeable, you can choose “HI”-action or “LO” action. (In HI-action the relay will turn ON if the conductivity or TDS is greater or equal to RELAY2 value, in LO-action the relay will turn OFF if the conductivity or TDS is greater or equal to RELAY2 value, which...

    CONTROLLING THE RELAYS . 5. RS 485 ID – this is the unique ID/Address for the unit. If you are connecting multiple model 6308CT or other Jenco models for logging purposes then this ID/Address must be unique for each connected unit. This ID/Address is the same address that must be used by the PC program to communicate with this unit.

    V. CONTROLLING THE RELAYS A. ISOLATION VOLTAGE The maximum isolation voltage of the relay output contacts is 1500 VDC. The voltage differential between the relay output contacts and the load should not exceed 1500 VDC. B. OUTPUT LOAD The current through the relay output contacts should not exceed 5 Amp at 115 VAC and 2.5 Amp at 230 VAC in order not to cause permanent damage to the relay contacts.

    E. TEMPERATURE RELAY One relay channel is available for temperature display which has independent set point and HIGH or LOW action (see fig. 1) setting, hysteresis mode (center or edge) and hysteresis value. The action of the Temperature relay is dependent on set point, relay action (HIGH or LOW), hysteresis mode (Center or Edge) , hysteresis value and the current Temperature display.
