Electrical Conduit Holes
Run all wiring to the FX-1000p in 1/2-inch, grounded metal conduit. If using only shielded cable, appropriate strain relief's or cable grips are required. Seal unused cable entry holes with appropriate plugs.

Important - The electronics enclosure is not a junction box and should not have any other wiring running through it.
Important - This non-metallic enclosure does not automatically provide grounding between the conduit connections. Grounding must be provided as part of the installation.
Electrical Connection

Make electrical connections to terminal strips located on the bottom circuit board in the enclosure. To access this board, unfasten the retaining nuts on the four threaded standoffs, and carefully remove the cover plate and top display/ controls circuit board. Make sure that the ribbon interconnect cable remains securely attached at both ends.

"Recorders are Important"

An often overlooked part of a chlorine system is a chart recorder. A good system will have a chart recorder tied into the residual analyzer to monitor how the system is operating. Although not quite as necessary, a second chart recorder tied into the flowmeter loop is also helpful in determining problems with chlorine residual.

The system below takes an high/ low contact from the chlorine analyzer and automatically makes phone calls to a list of several destination phone numbers until it gets an answer. When the call is answered, the unit recites the alarm condition and a full report of all monitored conditions in a synthesized voice format.

Chlorine Residual Control

In our chlorine residual control system, much of the same functionality of the car cruise control system is implemented, using different equipment specific to our process. We already know that the process we are interested in controlling is the chlorine residual level in the water. We read the chlorine residual level, or the "speed" of our process, with a chlorine analyzer. The signal from the analyzer is connected to a single or compound-loop controller, where we select our desired chlorine residual level. This would compare to the cruise control computer and speed selector push-button in the car. The output signal from the controller connects to a chlorine liquid metering pump, which varies the amount of chlorine going to the water being treated, and thus the chlorine residual.

Single Loop Control

Chlorine residual control system are often misunderstood and improperly implemented and as such usually ge abandoned for simpler manual or flow-paced chlorination systems. Successfully installing and running a chlorine residual control system requires a solid understanding of the system as a whole, and the role of individual components that makeup the system.

The FX-8500 Compound-loop controller can provide unattended automation for chlorine residual applications. The FX-8500 Compound-loop controller provides the vital link between chlorine analyzer, flowmeter, and chlorine control device. Allows instantaneous chlorine feed changes in response to flow rate changes, and overall, time-compensated changes based on chlorine residual feedback from the chlorine analyzer.
