Installation Sampling sampling pump Types of sampling pump For a sampling pump, select a submerged centrifugal pump that is free from rusting. Some types of pump, such as cascade-type pumps, diaphragm-type pumps, piston pumps, tube pumps, and gear pumps, are not suitable for use because the discharge pressure rises rapidly when the pump outlet is closed.
Page 29
Installation Influence of soiled piping If a low flow rate is set, solids may flake off from the soiled sampling piping due to the fluctuations in the flow rate or vibration of the piping. This may eventually influence the turbidity.
Installation Wire connection Opening the cover for the converter 1. Remove the two screw caps located on the top on the front of the converter. Carefully store the removed caps. 2. Open the front cover. 3. Loosen the four screws located on the front of the converter. Check that these screws are pushed forward by the spring force without falling off.
Installation Power supply WARNING If there is a possibility of a lightning strike, install an arrester on the output side and receiving instrument side of the converter. Electric shock hazard Be sure to check that no electric power is supplied before starting the procedure. A power switch is equipped beside the terminal block.
Installation Contact output R1 to R3 The terminal screw for the contact output are M4 type. The applicable electric wire is of 0.75 mm to 5.5 mm (AWG18 to AWG10). For wire connection, remove the black resin terminal cover for the power terminal by ...
Installation Failure output WARNING To connect any load exceeding the contact capacity or any induction load (e.g., motor, pump), be sure to use a power relay. If you want a break signal for power OFF or abnormality, use the contact with CF and NCF. When this equipment is normal (not malfunctioning), the CF-NOF contact is opened, and the CF-NCF contact is short-circuited.
Installation Range output For transmission output 2, a maximum of four measurement ranges can be switched externally or automatically. The range currently output for transmission output 2 can be recognized at the range output contact. An arbitrary range, from range 1 to range 4, can be set for transmission output 2 (zero and span values).
Installation Control output for automatic zero calibration (AC power-supply voltage output) This is a voltage control output that controls the electric ball valve for the sample water line and solenoid valve for zero water. For the sample water line, in order to control the electric ball valve applicable to a large bore size, power is supplied to either the open or close operation.
Installation Connecting the transmission output terminals WARNING If there is a possibility of a lightning strike, install an arrester on the output side and receiving instrument side of the converter. The terminal screws for transmission output are of the M3.5 type. ...
Installation Connecting the contact input terminal The applicable electric wire is of 0.14 mm to 2.5 mm (AWG26 to AWG14). For the cable for contact input, use a twist pair shielded wire. If lightning might strike, install an arrester along the signal line. ...

Maintenance Maintenance This chapter provides information on maintenance aimed at ensuring accuracy, such as calibration methods. Calibration Zero calibration Zero calibration is an operation that adjusts the value of clean water to zero. The following calibration method is recommended, depending on the degree of turbidity. When low turbidity water (such as tap water or swimming pool water) is measured, the turbidity resulting from air bubbles and matter adhering to wall surfaces may make it difficult to perform calibration by accumulating zero water.
Page 72
Maintenance 6. Display is automatically returned to the zero calibration mode. 7. Hold down ESC to return to the meas mode. Hold down When automatic zero calibration function (option) is provided Manual zero calibration When zero calibration is specified manually, the electric ball valve for the sample water line will be closed in a few seconds and the solenoid valve for zero water will be opened.
Conventionally, refined powders of Kaolin and Formazin have been used. For tap water, Polystyrene Latex (PSL) is used. For these turbidity standard substances, use commercial products or HORIBA Advanced Techno's consumables. Moreover, an optional span solution is also available as a substitute for the span calibration liquid.

Maintenance Span calibration procedure Pouring a standard solution 1. Close the sample water valve and open the drain valve to drain the sample water from the detector. 2. Detach the automatic cleaner and clean the cell. 3. Clean the inside of the cell of the detector thoroughly. 4.
Maintenance Maintenance Cleaning the detector Remove the automatic cleaner or the lid, then clean the cell of the detector with a soft brush or paper. If the detector is soiled, errors caused by flaking dirt become larger during zero calibration.
Maintenance Replacing the wiper of the automatic cleaner WARNING Unexpected operation of the unit may result in damage to the unit or an injury. Be sure to turn OFF the power when replacing any parts. The wiper of the automatic cleaner is made of silicone rubber. As the wiper will gradually change its size if the number of cleaning times increases, replace it as necessary.
Maintenance Replacing the motor of the automatic cleaner WARNING Unexpected operation of the unit may result in damage to the unit or an injury. Be sure to turn OFF the power when replacing any parts. Replace the drive motor of the automatic cleaner about once every 3 years. Replacing procedure 1.

Data Measurement principle Two detectors are used to detect the transmitted light and scattered light by using the blinking LED light source. While light source L1 is blinking, detector D1 detects the transmitted light and D2 detects the scattered light. The influence of the ambient light is eliminated by causing the light sources to blink and by obtaining the difference between a turn-on signal and turn-off signal.
