    Cerlic. Packing The original packing is designed to protect the equipment and should be used for storage or if the goods must be returned. If other packing material is used Cerlic is not responsible for damages during transport. Content Please check that the content corresponds to your order and packing list.
  • Page 6: Starting Up

    This will not damage the instrument but the automatic cleaning function will stop working. It is also recommended to use a CBX Jacket (P/N 11205969) when there is a risk of temperatures below 23ºF (-5ºC).
  • Page 7: User Interface

    User interface The BB1/BB2 will show the CBX as a standard “X” sensor on the display and it will show both sludge and fluff level in text on the display. Configurations The figure below shows the different terms used for distances that are involved in the configuring of the CBX.
  • Page 8: Operation

    If the CBX for some reason does not retract the cable, then it is possible to do manually. But always try to switch off the main power to the CBX for 10 seconds and then back on line again. The CBX will always start with retracting the cable to “home position” after a power loss.
  • Page 9: Configuration Terms

    fghj Configuration terms Home position, A The sensor will always return to this position. Blind zone, B Sludge or foam detected in this zone during lowering of the sensor is not registered. Unwanted interference is prevented by setting this zone to be 1’ (0.3m) below the normal liquid surface.

    Relay Relay 1/ Relay 2, can be used as level alarms. You can configure one of the internal relays as a timer to start the CBX if you do not have a rake to use as a trigger. Next time...
  • Page 14: Profile

    Profile CBX users can get the sludge profile using the 4 output signals on the BB2. It is updated at the end of each sampling cycle (channel 3 & 4 are on-line during sampling). This option requires an extra card in theBB2 unit with two more 4-20mA signals (total 4 outputs) Attach the extra mA card to the BB2 (P/N 11905782) see appendix 6.

  • Page 16: Calibration

    The CBX will collect samples and the BB1/BB2 shows this with a pop-up window. 5. In the case of sludge calibration enter the “Sample” concentration from the lab test. 6. Set the CBX in Trig mode (Calibration/Modes) and back out of the menu to save the values or changes.
  • Page 17: Deitailed Information Of Cbx

    Deitailed information of CBX The sludge blanket monitor system is constructed from parts built inside a cabinet. The parts are described and illustrated in the sections below. Main control board The main control board controls the mechanical events in the cabinet and communicates with both sensor and BB1/BB2.
  • Page 18: Axle Board

    fghj Axle board The axle board mounted on the cable drum is powered by contact free power (inductive) from the pickup board. It communicates with the main board via the pickup board and it communicates with the sensor through an optical RS-485 interface. fig 7 Sensor The sensor is connected to a cable that supplies it with power and transmits the...
  • Page 19: Cable Drum Assembly

    fghj Cable drum assembly The cable drum moves the sensor up and down in the clarifier. It is mounted directly on the axle of a synchronous motor, hidden behind the drum mounting plate, with a very constant speed. Since the diameter of the cable roll in the drum varies, the speed of the sensor will vary.
  • Page 20: Heater & Fan

    There is also an emergency motor control switch that is located on the box for the terminal block inside the CBX. The switch can be located on top of the terminal box or under the lid, fig 12. fig 12...

    fghj Appendix 6 , Optional 4-20mA output module for BB1/BB2 Introduction The BB1/BB2 4-20mA module is used to expand the BB1/BB2 central unit from two to four 4-20mA loops. It is assumed that the user is familiar with the BB1/BB2 and 4-20mA technology.
  • Page 22 fghj Mounting of the 4-20mA expansion card in the BB1/BB2 control box The 4-20mA module shall be mounted in a BB1/BB2 control box. Make sure the power to the control box is switched off before mounting the module. Connect yourself and the control box chassis to protective ground before opening the antistatic package of the module to avoid static discharges that can damage the module or the box.
