ANALOG CONTROLLER
1. Gradually start at the normal ow rate.
2. Bring the unit up to normal operating pressure
and temperature.
3. Turn the UV lamps for a minimum of 15
minutes.
4. Adjust the sensitivity potentiometer to 100%.
5. Adjust the sensitivity potentiometer to specied
%, determined by lamp type.
6. Adjust the alarm potentiometer until the RED LED
barley illuminates.
7. Set the sensitivity potentiometer back to 100%.
8. Turn the sensitivity potentiometer to specied
%, determined by lamp type; the LED should
illuminate.
9. Turn the sensitivity potentiometer back to
100%.
NOTE: Resetting must be performed after the rst 100 hours of operation
on new UV lamps, both at the time of installation and replacement.
Alarm Contacts
“Normally CLOSED” and “Normally OPEN” alarm contacts
are also provided for use with the user-supplied peripheral
equipment, such as remote alarms of solenoid valves. Dry relay
contacts are rated as follows: 0.52 AMP 120V AC., 0.25 AMP
240V AC.
If your application requires higher contact ratings, use a slave
relay. Connection of peripheral equipment is the responsibility
of the user.
Sensor Alarm
The S-254 UV Optical Sensor provides information about the
relative amount of UV passing through the water. When the
UV intensity falls below the minimum standard due to changes
occurring in the normal operating ow rate, temperature, operating
pressure or quality of the uid owing through the system, the
RED Sensor Alarm light (LED) will turn “ON”. Corrective action
must be taken when this happens to optimize the performance
of the UV treatment unit.
1. Examine your system for any signicant changes
in normal operating conditions.
2. Check if all UV lamps are electrically operating
and/or need replacement.
4-20ma SenSor Signal
The option is available with the S-254 UV Optical Sensor. It
generates a 4-20mA output signal based upon the relative UV
intensity, which may be monitored at a remote panel or control
PC. The customer is responsible for providing an appropriate
4-20mA display instrument and connecting it.
3. Verify the quartz sleeves are clean. If the
fouling of the quartz sleeve is the cause of the
alarm activation, the quartz must be cleaned
and at the same time, the UV sensor probe
quartz window.
t-120 temperature controller
Ultra violet lamps produce heat. The heat within the treatment
chamber must be dissipated to prevent damage to the UV unit
and water systems. Sealing material such as gaskets, o rings,
compression nuts, lamp sockets, UV lamps and UV sensor can
be damaged due to excessive heat. Under normal operating
conditions, the water ow is sufcient to remove heat generated
by the lamps.
As a safety feature, in which there maybe no ow conditions
or intermittence operation, a T-120 temperature control device
maybe installed.
StanDarD unitS:
Typically the temperature device is located on the water
inlet end plate, in some cases it is mount on the treatment
chamber wall. No operator intervention is required. When the
temperature sensor reaches 120°F (49°C), the UV lamps will
automatically switch OFF, preventing overheating conditions.
When the temperature drops below 100°F (38°C), the lamps
will automatically restart.
HigH temperature (Ht) unitS:
When the temperature sensor reaches 170°F (77°C), the UV
lamps will automatically switch OFF, preventing overheating
conditions. When the temperature drops below 150°F (66°C),
the lamps will automatically restart.
This temperature spread prevents excessive START/STOP’s
during no ow conditions and protects the UV lamps and electrical
components from overheating damage.
The temperature probe is located in the inlet riser. No operater
intervention is required other than periodic visual verication
that the UV lamps(s) are operating properly under normal ow
conditions.
The cutoff temperature has been preset at the factory. Should
you require a different set point, please contact Aquane.
