NOTE: The KONSOFT PC-Software has been thoroughly tested and has proven itself hundreds of times in customer use. Despite all care, we point out that the use of the free PC-Software is at your own risk. WELBA does not accept any liability for damages or loss of data resulting from the installation or use of the Software.
The universal tank control may not be exported to the USA without the manufacturer's express permission. The parameter settings of the WTS-200 as supplied do not corre- spond to the intended use. This can lead to undefined behaviour by individual components when the system is commissioned.
Safety Intended use Universal tank controllers WTS-200 are designed to control heating systems, condensing units, alarms, fans, etc. in milk cooling tanks. Any other use of the device is permitted only with prior written permission from the manufacturer. The controller is intended only for incorporating into machinery, display panels or switchboxes etc.
Caution: All cables to the digital inputs must be shielded and kept as short as possible. EMC. Important note concerning the external fuse ! We recommend protecting the control system with a slow-blow fuse of 160 Page 7 105871 - WTS-200 31.05.2021...
Unpacking and storage If the packaging is damaged or something is missing, do not fit the tempera- ture controller. In this case please contact Welba. If you keep the temperature controller for a period before using it, store it in a clean dry place at a temperure of between -20°C and +70°C.
(or if a sensor other than the one supplied is to be fitted), the "actual value correction" parameter must be adjusted accordingly. See the page 59. Page 9 105871 - WTS-200 31.05.2021...

Funcion overview The WTS-200 is a universal tank control unit combining a modern milk cooling regulator and a complete cleaning programme control system in one. The control unit has various operating modes: ! OFF mode (with continuous stirring function + QUICKWASH) The control unit is on stand-by.
Internal data storage An integrated data storage permanently records the mode, the milk temperature, the compressor and stirrer status of the last one to two days. This data can be conveniently evaluated via the "Welba evaluation Software "Welba KONSOFT". Optional:...
The configuration software KONSOFT For software description see separate instructions. The user-friendly configuration software “KONSOFT" for the WTS-200 can be used for configuration parameter setting visualisation storage updating Configuration All setting parameters can be entered and stored, with reference to levels, on your PC using a clearly designed template.

Other information Function “Intermediate stirring” The universal tank control WTS-200 has a function allowing the agitator Mode to be switched on manually in coolin mode. This can be done is different ways. Regardless of the chosen option the corresponding LED always indi- cates when the agitator is operating.
The level control is factory-set to 'medium' water quality. Depending on the hardness of the local water supply sensitivity can be adjusted parameter [r30] as follows: 0 .. +10 more sensitivity 0 .. -10 lower sensitivity Page 59 105871 - WTS-200 31.05.2021...
Press button SET to confirm the factory reset. Set and store original parameterization for the tank. NOTE: If "EEP" appears again on the display after the factory reset and after another OFF and ON-switching, the control is irreparably defective. Page 60 105871 - WTS-200 31.05.2021...
Via [P89] can be set whether the low pressure monitoring is to be permanent or temporally limited. The advantage of permanent monitoring is that even the loss of cooling agent is detected! Page 61 105871 - WTS-200 31.05.2021...
A new manual activation of the cooling start delay can be triggered only by a long pressing of the button "COOLING". To cover all the different system configurations possible, the WTS-200 offers a range of variants for cooling start delay.
When the trigger signal is given, an impulse of length T2 is released at the relay-output (however, only as long as the trigger signal is present). If the trigger signal drops out within the time T2 the relay also drops again. Trigger signal Relay output Page 63 105871 - WTS-200 31.05.2021...

ESGSM-001! If the status-LED of the ESGSM-001 flashes "2x in RED", a 4-digit SIM- PIN must be entered. NOTE: If a "-1" is set and saved in [E50], the PIN entry via the WTS-200 is deactivated. Proceed as follows: Enter the first two digits of the PIN in parameter [E50].

(as shown on the left), as an idle current will flow through the RC combination even when the switching contact is open. This current may be enough to mean that a downstream contactor is not de-energised and a closed protective contact does not reopen. Page 67 105871 - WTS-200 31.05.2021...
