3.4 Electrical connections 3.4.1 Power supply p.c. board WARNING! Only qualified personnel should conduct the tasks described in this section of the manual. The transmitter is not fitted with a switch therefore a disconnecting device such as a switch or circuit breaker conforming to local safety standards must be fitted to the final installation.
3.4.1.1 Power supply cable Power supply cable has to be supplied by the Customer and installed by the maintenance staff. In accordance to EN61010-1 power supply cable has to satisfy the following requirements: • power supply cable must be certified (e.g. IMQ, UL, CSA...) or approved by an official national testing bureau.
Unauthorised personnel must not be able to open the instrument. AW400 is defined as an instrument "with no accessible parts under dangerous voltage". 3.4.2 Digital I/O pc board 3.4.2.1 Digital Outputs AW400 digital outputs are provided by seven (7) relays. The function of each output contact depends on the type of instrument selected and its configuration.

6 CALIBRATION Calibration is required to align the sensor sensitivity. This operation is necessary at the start-up of the instrument and at periodical intervals. New sensors have to be let in operation for at least 24 hours, to allow the electrode to recover complete sensitivity, before performing the calibration procedure. ATTENTION! The calibration procedure must be accomplished having the sensor and the AW400 connected and powered.
Put the two standard buffer solutions in two beakers in a sufficient amount to cover the sensor. Wash the probe with de-mineralised water, dry it and dip it in the standard pH 7 buffer solution. Stir softly but continuously the probe: in this way a lower stabilisation time will be required. Press the MENU key to enter the Instrument Calibration submenu and enter the CALIBRATION menu and then the channel of the pH probe.
