PASIUNA

The Model 150 Process Indicator is a microprocessor based instrument which accepts a 4-20mA input and displays the input signal and the process variable on a large LCD display. It is powered entirely from the 4-20mA loop and, therefore, does not require an external power source.

The input is displayed on a bar graph as 0…100%. The process variable is a 7 digit numeric display which can be spanned in any engineering units.

The instrument is fully programmable; the user can program alarm settings, span & zero and non-linear correction points. Calculation constants are also set from the front panel and are stored in a non-volatile memory which retains data indefinitely.

The Model 150 Process Indicator conforms conforms to the EMC-Directive of the Council of European Communities 2014/30/EU, the LVD directive 2014/35/EU and the following standards

OPERASYON

The Model 150 Process Indicator accepts a 4-20mA input signal from a sensor such as a pressure transmitter, temperature sensor or load cell transmitter. The instrument is powered entirely from the loop and, therefore, requires no external power or internal batteries.

The instrument is fully programmable with all operating parameters and calculation constants programmable from the front panel (see Section PROGRAM STEPS). The setup parameters are stored in a non-volatile memory and are retained indefinitely in the event of a power loss.

DISPLAY

The display of the Model 150 comprises of: 

Process Signal Bar Graph
Process Variable Numeric Display

Signal Bar Graph

The signal bar graph displays the input signal as a percentage.

Inputs of 4mA and 20mA can be programmed to correspond to 0% and 100% respectively, or can be inverted so that 4mA will correspond to 100% and 20mA will correspond to 0%.

Variable sa Proseso

The process variable is a 7 digit numeric display which can be spanned, during setup, to read in any engineering units. The process variable is displayed with 4½ resolution in respect to the maximum reading.

Kay example, if the maximum reading is 1234567, the display will show up to 5 digits plus trailing zeros. At different inputs the following will be displayed:

1234567 will be displayed as 1234500; 234567 will be displayed as 234500.

However, if the first digit is greater than 1, then up to 4 digits only will be displayed with trailing zeros. For example, if the maximum contents is 2345678, then at different inputs:

2345678 will be displayed as 2345000; 345678 will be displayed as 345000.

CALCULATION OF THE PROCESS VARIABLE 

For a linear signal/process variable relationship, the contents is calculated as follows:

Process Variable = (Span) x (% Signal) + Offset

where the Span and Offset are constants programmed during programming

OPERASYON SA FRONT PANEL

Pagpakita sa Data

The alarm set points can be viewed by pressing the DISPLAY key.

Changing Data

Each of the above parameters can be changed as follows:

1. Pressing the DISPLAY key consecutively until the numeric value of the parameter to be changed appears (as described in the previous diagram).
2. This value can then be changed using the following keys:
   This key steps from digit to digit, causing the digit to flash. Only flashing digits can be changed. This key increments the flashing digit.

Example. 

To change the high alarm setpoint to 75:

1. Press DISPLAY until the value of the high alarm appears. This will be the value after AL-HI.
2. The first digit is flashing, this means it can be changed. Using the key, this digit is changed to 7.
3. Ang key is pressed so that the second digit flashes.
4. Gamit ang key, this digit is changed to 5.

Note that the Model 150 can be programmed so that the above parameters cannot be changed, see Section PROGRAM STEPS.

Timeout Condition

Upon entering the display mode, if no key is pressed for 10 seconds, the display returns to the process variable display with alarm acknowledgment cleared.

MODE SA PAGSULAY

The 150 has a test mode which can be entered by simultaneously pressing all 3 front panel keys. There are 3 tests:

Low Test: Pinaagi sa pagpindot sa key, the low and low-low alarms outputs will be energised.

High Test: Pinaagi sa pagpindot sa key, the high and high-high alarm outputs will be energised.

Ipakita ang Pagsulay: By pressing the DISPLAY key, all segments of the display will flash.

To exit the test mode all three keys are pressed simultaneously.

MGA ALARMA

The Model 150 has 4 alarm outputs:

• Signal
  

The alarms can be assigned to signal or process variable which is done during programming (see Section PROGRAM STEPS). Each alarm is individually programmed as a percentage (0-100%) of signal or process variable.

All of the alarms have open collector outputs and are separately isolated via opto-isolators. The outputs are internally protected against voltage spike tungod sa relays ug coils.

Mga Matang sa Alarm

Output sa Alarm

The Model 150 can be programmed for the alarm outputs to operate in one of two ways:

1. The alarm outputs can energise (switch on) during an alarm condition, or;
2. The alarm outputs can de-energise (switch off) during an alarm condition.

High Alarms

The high alarms will be activated when the signal or process variable increase above the high alarm setpoints. These alarms will be deactivated when the value falls below these programmed setpoints.

When setting the alarms, the high-high alarm should be set higher than the high alarm.

Low Alarms

The low alarms will be activated when the signal or process variable falls below the low alarm setpoints. These alarms will be deactivated when the value exceeds the programmed setpoint.

Similarly, when setting the low alarms, the low-low alarm should be set below the low alarm.

Alarm Dead band

To prevent an alarm toggling on and off when the signal is close to the setpoint, a user programmable deadband is provided. The deadband is a percentage (0-100%) of the maximum signal or process variable.

Exampug 1. 

If the low alarm is set to 20% and the deadband is set to 5%, the alarm will be activated when the value reaches 20%. The alarm will then stay activated until the value increases above 25%.

Exampug 2. 

If the high alarm and deadband are set at 80% and 5% respectively, the alarm will be activated at 80% and will stay activated until the value falls below 75

Aksyon sa Alarm

When an alarm condition exists the Model 150 will act in the following way:

1. The appropriate alarm output will be activated.
2. The display will flash the name of the alarm.
3. In some cases these alarms may be acknowledged from the front panel. This will depend on whether they are programmed as continuous or acknowledgeable alarms. This is set up during programming (see Section PROGRAM STEPS).

The differences between acknowledging continuous and acknowledgeable alarms are described in the table below.

Acknowledgeable Alarms

1. These alarms are acknowledged by pressing the DISPLAY key.
2. Once the alarm is acknowledged the flashing on the LCD will cease, with the alarm message remaining solid. The message will remain on the screen until the alarm condition no longer exists.
3. Once the alarm is acknowledged, the alarm output will be deactivated.

Continuous Alarms

1. A continuous alarm cannot be acknowledged.
2. The flashing on the LCD cannot be stopped and will keep flashing until the alarm condition no longer exists.
3. The alarms will only be deactivated when the signal (or process variable) is outside alarm conditions.

Mubo nga sulat: Note that acknowledging the LL alarm will also acknowledge (and deactivate) the L alarm. Similarly, acknowledging the HH alarm will also acknowledge (and deactivate) the H alarm.

Pagbutang ug Alarm

To set any of the alarms:

1. Press the DISPLAY key until the name of the alarm to be changed appears (see Section Displaying Data).
2. Gamita ang ug keys to change the value of the alarm.
3. Press the DISPLAY key until the original screen appears.

NON-LINEARITY

The Model 150 can be programmed to correct for the non-linearities between the signal input and the process variable.

A correction table, which corrects for non-linearities, can be programmed during setup. This table works as follows:

DETERMINING THE NON-LINEAR CORRECTION TABLE 

Example. 

A spherical tank has a diameter of 10m. The tank has a pressure transmitter mounted at the base of the tank which records the head of liquid in the tank. The pressure transmitter zero is set at 5kPa and the span is 100kPa. The following 15 point relationship has been determined:

asa,

Busa, alang sa example, at 94.06kPa the normalized input is:

Sa susama,

If the Zero is > 0

Busa, alang sa example, at 94.06kPa the volume is 518.280m3 and the normalized output is:

SELECTING THE NUMBER OF POINTS FOR NON-LINEAR CORRECTION

The user can program up to 25 points. However, the values at 4mA or 20mA which are set at 0 and 1 respectively, are not programmed. It is not always necessary to program all 25 points, as it will depend on the shape of the tank.

PAG-FILTER

Input fluctuations in the signal can interfere with the stability of the signal and process variable readings. For this reason, the Model 150 has a digital filter which will average out these fluctuations and enable accurate readings.

The degree of filtering of the input signal can be adjusted, depending on the amount of fluctuation and the particular application. Values from 1 to 99 can be programmed, where 1 corresponds to no filtering and 99 corresponds to heavy filtering. Such flexibility in filtering means that highly accurate and stable readings can be obtained.

When programming the degree of filtering, it is advisable to start with no filtering (the factor equals 1) and gradually increase until a steady reading is obtained. It is important that the filtering is not too heavy because this will cause an overdamped response.

The graph on the following page shows the time to reach 90% and 99% of a new reading for a step change in input signal.

Filter Factor vs Time to Reach New Reading
(for a step change in input signal) 

PAGPROGRAMA

The Model 150 is fully programmable with all parameters being stored in memory.

Sa pagsulod sa Program Mode: 

Remove the lower cover strip (the dark grey strip along the bottom of the front of the enclosure) and replace it the reverse side up. This brings a small magnet on the inside of the cover strip in contact with a reed switch inside the instrument. The word “Set” is then displayed.

To exit Program Mode: 

The grey strip should be replaced the correct way up.

The key switch actions are as follows:

This key steps from digit to digit, causing the digit to flash.

This key will increment a flashing digit or change a parameter selection.

This key will step through the program sequence.

In stepping through the program sequence (using the DISPLAY key), the parameter description is displayed first, followed by the actual value or parameter. When a value or parameter can be changed it is shown as flashing.

PAG-INSTALL

PAG-MOUNTING SA WALL

A wall mounting bracket is supplied with each instrument. Round head screws should be used to attach the bracket to the wall (countersunk screws should not be used). The bracket is mounted first, with the tray section at the bottom. The instrument is then mounted on the bracket with two screws as shown below.

PAGtangtang sa atubang nga panel 

Ang front panel kinahanglang tangtangon sama sa mosunod:

1. Remove the top and bottom cover strips (ie. the dark plastic strip) by levering a screwdriver under one end.
2. Undo the screws retaining the front. Do not remove the screws, they are retained by O-rings.
3. Remove the front panel from the housing.

Sa pag-ilis sa atubangan nga hapin, sunda ang pamaagi sa ibabaw nga baliskad. Siguroha nga ang atubangan nga panel naa sa mga punto sa connector sa dili pa higpitan ang mga screw.

ANG NAG-UNANG ELECTRONICS 

The front section of the housing contains the microprocessor and display. It is possible to adjust the display contrast via a small potentiometer on the board. The display contrast is shown below and this can be adjusted for optimum contrast.

Adjacent to this control is a reset switch, which can be used to reset the microprocessor. Note that pressing this button will reset all setup parameters.

WIRING

When connecting the Model 150, it is good practice to use shielded cable. The shield should be connected to earth at one end of the cable. The other end of the shield should not be connected.

This wiring practice is mandatory in order to comply with the requirements for Electromagnetic Compatibility as per EMC-Directive 2014/30/EU of the Council of the European Community.

All printed circuit boards must be repaired by Contre Ltd.
