  • Page 5: General Information

    PREFACE General Information Introduction Purpose and Use The Model 5400 Dynamic Scale Loop is used to evaluate the performance of scale inhibitors under high pressure and high temperature conditions. Description The system consists of a forced air convection oven containing the test section and fittings. Samples are pumped through the tubing at known rates while measuring the differential pressure (dP) across the test section.

  • Page 9: Section 1 - Installation

    SECTION 1 – INSTALLATION Section 1 – Installation Unpacking the Instrument Carefully remove the system from the packing crate. The system comes fully equipped with all the necessary components and any spare parts that were ordered with the system. Ensure that no parts or tools are lost when discarding the packing materials.
  • Page 10 SECTION 1 – INSTALLATION Lantronix DeviceInstaller software pre-installed on the computer shipped with the instrument. Contact Chandler Engineering for more details. If the computer must be connected to the Internet, a second Ethernet port should be installed and configured independently of the Ethernet port used to control the system.

    SECTION 2 – OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Conducting a Test To prepare to conduct a test, add test fluids to the supply bottles. Connect the bottles to the anion, cation, and, if equipped, breaker and inhibitor HPLC pump inlets. Adjust the PUMP SUPPLY pressure regulator to establish a pressure in the bottles. Turn the backpressure regulator CW approximately 2 turns.
  • Page 14: Main Window

    SECTION 2 – OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Main Window The user interface illustrated above is used to control the system. A separate window is used to display the plotted data. The pumps are identified as Anion, Inhibit / Breaker (optional) and Cation. The Run/Stop buttons are selected to manually start each pump at the user specified flow rate.
  • Page 15: Settings Menu

    SECTION 2 – OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS The Oven Temperature set-point is provided by the user. Once defined, the value is transmitted to the oven controller. Other than turning ON the oven, the user does not need to change oven settings. An option exists to change the oven temperature set point to 32°F or 0°C at the end of a schedule.
  • Page 16 SECTION 2 – OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Test Parameters For this test, the operator defines the rate for both the Anion and Cation pumps and the maximum “Pumping Time”. The Cleanup is defined as a “Flush Rate” (source valves are set to Flush water and the same rate set point is sent to both Pumps) and a “Flush Time”. Flush can be disabled by entering a Flush Time of 00:00:00.
  • Page 17 SECTION 2 – OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Simple: Used to define the pumping parameters (flow rate, time). Once defined, the system may be operated automatically. This option is only available on 3-Pump systems. This window cannot be opened if an Advanced test is in-progress. Test Parameters This test is useful when the “Time to Blank”...
  • Page 18 SECTION 2 – OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS The OK button will save the parameters and the Configuration window will close. The Cancel button will discard any changes and the Configuration window will close. The Apply button will save the parameters but the Configuration window will stay open. Clicking the OK or Apply buttons will not start the test.
  • Page 19 SECTION 2 – OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Advanced: Used to define the pumping parameters (flow rate, time). Once defined, the system may be operated automatically. This option is only available on 3-Pump systems. This window cannot be opened if a Simple test is in-progress. This test will: Run a Blank: both Anion and Cation pumps will run at “Pump Rate”...

The SPAN and ZERO for each signal are defined as follows: Upstream Pressure Scaling: SPAN: 6000 PSI ZERO: 0 PSI Differential Pressure Scaling SPAN: 36.00 PSID...
  • Page 22 SECTION 2 – OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 2-12 Calibration – Units: Used to configure the engineering units used by the system. Temperature units may be °C or °F. Pressure units may be kPa, atm, psi. Note that changing the units during a test is not advised since it will disrupt ongoing data collection and the value of the pressure limit thresholds.
  • Page 23: Section 3 - Maintenance

    SECTION 3 – MAINTENANCE Section 3 – Maintenance NOTE: Always disconnect all power connections prior to service. Tools Required • One set of English size open end wrenches • One set of English size instrumentation screwdrivers • One set of metric wrenches supplied with the HPLC pumps and valves Oven The oven is calibrated and ready for use upon delivery.
  • Page 24: Pressure Transducer

    SECTION 3 – MAINTENANCE Pressure Transducer Pressure calibration involves determining the ZERO of each transducer at atmospheric pressure, then using an electronic transfer standard, pressurizing the system to near full scale (5000 psi) and adjusting the SPAN to agree with the known value. There are no adjustments located on the transducer.
  • Page 25: Differential Pressure Transmitter

    The transmitter diaphragm is made from Hastelloy C276 and the connection flange is made from 316 stainless steel. The transducer is equipped with panel-mounted valves that are used to release air from the dP measurement lines and for flushing the system. Contact AMETEK Chandler Engineering for additional details.
  • Page 26: Oven Tube Assembly

    SECTION 3 – MAINTENANCE Oven Tube Assembly The oven tube assembly may be disassembled for periodic replacement of the scale loop and pre-heat loops. Refer to the assembly drawing in Section – Drawings and Schematics for individual part numbers. Once the six high pressure connections are disconnected, the assembly may be removed from the oven.
