1.2 Outputs and interfaces
1.2.1 Overview
The monitor has the following outputs and interfaces depending on the instrument version:
1.2.2 Freely configurable relay (RT and RT RS option)
Both potential-free K1 and K2 relays of the RT and RT RS instrument versions can be used as follows:
As a fault indicator if the power fails
As an indicator relay for a frozen measured value (e.g. when calibrating)
As a threshold indicator if a specified threshold is undercut or exceeded (main measured value)
As a proportional controller with pulse width or frequency modulation for controlling the pH value
As a control relay with timer function, e.g. for time-controlled sensor cleaning operated by compressed air.
1.2.3 SensCheck relay (sensor monitoring)
The SensCheck relay is designed as a closer (galvanically separated from the instrument). In conjunction with the SensoLyt® 700 (SW) armature it is always active (=closed) if a sensor error such as broken glass occurs. At the same time, the SensCheck symbol appears on the display (see section 4.1).

1.2.4 RS 485 digital interface (RT RS option)
The monitor can communicate with other instruments via the RS 485 digital interface of the RS instrument versions.
The following operating modes are possible:
Master mode (Prn mode): Unidirectional mode for the output of measured values. The main and auxiliary measured values are sent. The interface is constantly active in master mode. The data are sent to a data terminal (e.g. PC with terminal software or printer).
Slave mode (SL mode): Bidirectional mode in the bus network. In this operating mode the monitor ("slave") works together with a control computer ("master") on the master/slave principle. A total of 31 slave devices can be connected to one master in the bus network. All slave devices are addressed by the control computer under their bus address and execute the transferred commands, e.g. sending measured values, calibration data and relay states.
NoteThe RS 485 interface that accompanies the RT RS instrument versions is described in detail in a separate manual.
PROFIBUS connection The monitor can be connected to a PROFIBUS DP network via the RS 485 interface with the PROFIBUS converter PKV 30-DPS that is available as an accessory.

Fig. 4-1 Operating levels
The operation of the monitor is differentiated into three levels:
Operating level In normal measuring mode and during calibration the monitor is in the so-called 'operating level'.
Parameterization level All instrument settings are made in this level (e.g. measuring ranges, limits).
Configuration level The functions of the monitor are defined in this level. The configuration is carried out after the installation of the instrument, mostly only during the initial commissioning.
Password protection All settings of the parameterization and configuration level can be protected with a three-digit numeric code against unauthorized or unintentional modification.

The following functions are possible:
NoteThe relay functions are selected in the configuration level under the setting Crc (see section 4.4.2).
Function Description
nF (no function) Relay has no function
PS (Power Supply) Monitoring the mains voltage.The relay contact is closed when mains voltage is applied and opens if there is apower failure.
FrC (Freeze) The relay is active when the measured value is frozen, e.g. during a calibration. The relays can be configured as normally closed or normally open.
UL.LL (Limits)ULpH / mVLLpH / mVUL°CLL°C
The relay can be set as an upper or lower limit indicator for both the pH value and for the measured temperature value. It becomes active if a specified limit is exceeded or undercut. The relays can be configured as normally closed or normally open.
A limit indicator is set as follows:
– Press <ENTER>.
– Select the desired option with <UP><DOWN> and then press <ENTER>. Note what appears on the display: UL = upper limitLL = lower limitpH or mV = measuring mode°C = measured temperature value
The specification of the limits and other parameterization of the relay is described in section 4.6.2.

Switching behavior(normally closed/open)
The relay can be configured as normally closed or open for the functions FrC (Freeze) and UL.LL (limits). The relay works as normally open for all other functions.
NoteThe switching behavior is set in the configuration level (section 4.4.2).
4.6.2 Limit indicator
Basics With a limit indicator, a relay switches when a specified limit value is exceeded or undercut. The switching contact opens or closes according to the selected switching behavior.
Limit indicators can be used in the following way:
Monitoring a limit value using a relay:When a limit value (upper or lower limit value) is exceeded or undercut, a relay switches.
Monitoring two limit values using two relays:If the upper limit value is exceeded or undercut, a relay switches and, if the lower limit value is exceeded or undercut, another relay switches.
PIULpHLLpH
The relay is used as a control output for a proportional controller with pulse width modulation.
Whether an upper (UL) or lower (LL) limit is specified for the control is predefined with UL or LL (for details, see section 4.6.3).
PFULpHLLpH
The relay is used as a control output for a proportional controller with frequency modulation.
Whether an upper (UL) or lower (LL) limit is specified for the control is predefined with UL or LL (for details, see section 4.6.3).

4.6.3 Proportional control with relay
In a proportional controller a relay periodically switches on and off depending on the measured value. The switching signal (output signal of the controller) can be used as a manipulated variable for a control circuit, e.g. for the control of suitable dosing pumps or valves.
Output signal A switching period of the output signal is made up of the ON time and OFF time. The duration of a switching period is described as period T.
Fig. 4-3 Switching period of a proportional controller
tOn = ON time, tOff = OFF time, T = period
v = (ton / T) * 100 %
v = relative pulse width
The ON and OFF time are changed ("modulated") depending on the position of the measured value. Two different types of modulation are possible:
Pulse width modulation
Frequency modulation
Pulse width modulation In this type of modulation the ON time (tOn) of the output signal is changed according to the measured value. Depending on the position of the measured value, the relay is operated for a longer or shorter time period. The relative pulse width varies between 10 and 90 %. The period can be set to between 5 and 100 s.
Frequency modulation Unlike pulse width modulation, the ON time remains constant in this type of modulation (tOn = 0.3 s). Depending on the position of the measured value, the relay switches on more or less frequently. The switching frequency moves between 0 pulses/min (relay constantly off) and the maximum switching frequency. The maximum switching frequency can be set to between 50 and 120 pulses/min.

pH 170 Operation

Control with limits For control with a proportional controller a limit must be specified. This limit can be an upper limit (UL = Upper Limit) or a lower limit (LL = Lower Limit). If the limit is exceeded or undercut, the controller creates a signal (manipulated variable) which is proportional to the deviation from the limit. The signal can be used in a control circuit to counteract the limit violation.
Proportional range
Fig. 4-4 Proportional range in pulse width modulation (example: upper limit)
Fig. 4-5 Proportional range in frequency modulation (example: upper limit)
If the measured value lies below an upper limit or above a lower limit, also in the set range, the controller does not output a signal (relative pulse width or frequency = 0). In the case of a fault that leads to the limit being exceeded or undercut, the controller generates a signal which counteracts the controlling element (dosing pump or valve) of the fault. The relay switches with a relative pulse width or frequency that increases with an increasing gap between the measured value and

limit. This range is the proportional range of the controller. If the maximum relative pulse width (90 %) or frequency (variable) is reached, a greater gap between the measured value and limit does not lead to any further increase. The controlling element of the control circuit works with maximum effect (maximum dosing). The controller works outside the proportional range.
NoteProportional controllers have the characteristic that if there is a persistent fault of the control circuit a constant control deviation or offset remains.
Control with two relays
Fig. 4-6 Regulation with 2 relays
Two proportional controllers can be combined so that one controller counteracts the limit violation of an upper limit and the second controller counteracts the limit violation of a lower limit. This enables the measured value to be controlled in such a way that it remains within the selected range defined by the limits (control deviations not taken into account).

4.6.4 Timer for external sensor cleaning system
Function The cleaning function enables the timing of a sensor cleaning system through one relay of the monitor. The relay always works as a closer (normally open).
Setting table for sensor cleaning:
NoteNo calibration is possible during the cleaning process (tc) and the adjustment duration (th). If a cleaning process is due during a running calibration, the start is delayed until the calibration is completed. The starting time of all subsequent cleaning processes is moved back according to the delay.
Setting Selection/Values Explanation
Tr 1 ... 168 (hours)
Time interval between two cleaning processes
tc 10 ... 300(seconds)
Duration of the cleaning process. During the cleaning process the measured value is frozen.
th 10 ... 900(seconds)
Time for adapting the sensor to the measured medium after the cleaning process. During the adaptation period the measured value is frozen.
Operating notes on setting the numerical values:
– Set the first (flashing) digit with <UP><DOWN> and confirm with <ENTER>.
– Set the other digits in the same way.
– After the last digit you reach the next setting
– After entry of all three values the setting of the sensor cleaning is complete

4.7 pH calibration
4.7.1 Calibration procedure
The following calibration procedures can be selected (see section 4.4.2 CONFIGURATION SETTING TABLE):
Auto Cal TEC Automatic two-point calibration with WTW technical buffer solutions. The pH 2.00 / 4.01 / 7.00 / 10.01 buffer values are available. The buffer set values are automatically detected during the calibration.
Auto Cal TEC rEC1 REL1 As for Auto Cal TEC, but with extra output of the buffer set values on current output REC1.
Con Cal Conventional two-point calibration with 2 buffer solutions (pH 7.0 and any other buffer solution).
NoteThe calibration at pH 10.01 is optimized for the WTW technical buffer solution TEP 10 Trace or TPL 10 Trace. Other buffer solutions can lead to an incorrect calibration. The correct buffer solutions can be found in the WTW catalog or on the Internet.
Temperaturecompensation during
the calibration
The temperature has a major influence on the pH value of a buffer solution and therefore also on the calibration. For this reason measuring the temperature is essential for an exact calibration. When the temperature sensor is connected and automatic temperature compensation is selected, the temperature is automatically determined during the calibration. When manual temperature compensation is selected, the temperature of the buffer solutions is measured with a thermometer and entered. Both buffer solutions must be at the same temperature.
NoteManual entry of the temperature of the buffer solutions has no influence on the manual temperature entry for measurement mode (parameter Pt, see section 4.5.2 SETTING TABLE OF PARAMETERIZATION).

9.2 Glossary
The glossary briefly explains the meaning of the specialist terms. However, terms that should already be familiar to the target group are not described here.
Adjusting To manipulate a measuring system so that the relevant value (e.g. the displayed value) differs as little as possible from the correct value or a value that is regarded as correct, or that the difference remains within the tolerance.
Asymmetry Designation for the offset potential of a pH electrode. It is the measurable potential of a symmetrical electrode, the membrane of which is immersed in a solution with the pH of the nominal electrode zero point (WTW electrodes: pH = 7).
Auto Read (AR) WTW name for a function to check the stability of the measured value.
Calibration Comparing the value from a measuring system (e. g. the displayed value) to the correct value or a value that is regarded as correct. Often, this expression is also used when the measuring system is adjusted at the same time (see Adjusting).
Electrode zero point The zero point of a pH electrode is the pH value at which the electromotive force of the pH electrode at a specified temperature is zero. Normally, this is at 25 °C.
Electromotive force of an electrode
The electromotive force U of the electrode is the measurable electromotive force of an electrode in a solution. It equals the sum of all the galvanic voltages of the electrode. Its dependency on the pH results in the electrode function which is characterized by the parameters, slope and zero point.
Junction The junction is a porous body in the housing wall of reference electrodes or electrolyte bridges. It provides the electrical contact between two solutions and makes the electrolyte exchange more difficult. The expression 'junction' is also used for ground or junction-less transitions.
Measured parameter The measured parameter is the physical dimension determined by measuring, e.g. pH, conductivity or D.O. concentration.
Measured value The measured value is the special value of a measured parameter to be determined. It is given as a combination of the numerical value and unit (e.g. 3 m; 0.5 s; 5.2 A; 373.15 K).
Measuring system The measuring system comprises all the devices used for measuring, e.g. meter and sensor. In addition, there is the cable and possibly an amplifier, terminal strip and armature.

Offset potential The measurable potential of a symmetrical electrode, the membrane of which is immersed in a solution with the pH of the nominal electrode zero point. The asymmetry is part of the offset potential.
ORP voltage The ORP is caused by oxidizing or reducing substances dissolved in water if these substances become effective on an electrode surface (e.g. a gold or platinum surface).
pH value The pH is a measure of the acidic or basic effect of an aqueous solution. It corresponds to the negative decadic logarithm of the molal hydrogen ions activity divided by the unit of the molality. The practical pH value is the value of a pH measurement.
Potentiometry Name of a measuring technique. The signal (depending on the measured parameter) of the electrode is the electrical potential. The electrical current remains constant.
Reset Restoring the original condition of all settings of a measuring system.
Resolution Smallest difference between two measured values that can be displayed by a measuring instrument.
SensCheck WTW function for the automatic recognition of a sensor defect (e.g. broken glass of a pH electrode).
Slope The slope of a linear calibration function.
Temperature compensation
Name of a function that considers the temperature influence on the measurement and converts it accordingly. Depending on the measured parameter to be determined, the temperature compensation functions in different ways. For conductimetric measurements, the measured value is converted to a defined reference temperature. For potentiometric measurements, the slope value is adjusted to the temperature of the test sample but the measured value is not converted.
Temperature function
Name of a mathematical function expressing the temperature behavior of a test sample, a sensor or part of a sensor.
Test sample Designation of the test sample ready to be measured. Normally, a test sample is made by processing the original sample. The test sample and original sample are identical if the test sample was not processed.
