Controller types
| Types | Features |
| Controller 40 | The controller 40 is used for the analysis of multi-component blends (lye-salt-water, acid-salt-water) especially in gas scrubber and neutralization applications. |
| Controller 30 | The controller 30 is equipped with a powerful sensor interface. This enables the communication and power supply of up to four sensors. This allows the realization of budget-optimized solutions for multi point measurements. |
| Controller 20 | The controller 20 is an economical unit and ideal for cost-conscious end-users. This controller has reduced equipment and can interface with only one sensor. |
Functions
Clear Display Layout
The main view of the controller offers a fast overview of the current product, its measured value and the liquids temperature at the measuring point.
The limit value display in the left screen area enables a rapid recognition of deviations to the desired measuring range. If a limit is exceeded, the pin showing the current value will turn its color into red.
Product Data Set Management
The controller manages the data sets of up to 32 products or optional a maximum of 99 products. It is possible to select the products via the specific menu. Using the virtual keyboard the product name can be changed.
Userfriendly Menu
The controller has a lot of parameters and helpful functions. The parameters are structured in a parameter tree.
Event-Logbook and Alarm Messages
The device has an automatic self-check. All alarm messages are shown clearly in the display and are stored in the event-logbook. The logbook is presented on the display and can be transferred using the USB port. For example, the event-logbook tracks which user has when calibrated which product with what value.
User Administration
The system security is very important. The controller has a comfortable user administration. It is possible to define several users with different access authorizations. This user management ensures that only specific users are able to calibrate the device.
SonicGraph®
The sensor option SonicGraph® allows the visualization of the original ultrasonic signal. This function is very helpful to optimize the measuring conditions, for example influenced by gas bubbles.
Multilingualism
The controller allows the operation in several languages, and text inputs are possible in Latin, Asian and Cyrillic characters.
Provided languages:
German, English, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Russian, Chinese, Japanese, Polish
Multi Measuring Points
The Controller 30 includes the possibility to manage up to 4 sensors. The values of several sensors are presented in the 2- or 4-sensor view.
Multi-Component Display
The Controller 40 calculates and displays two different concentrations in a 3-component-liquid.
