In order to optimize the controlling process and reduce the amount of
chemicals and fertilizers used, it is recommended to use a proportional
dosage appropriate for the system.
HI 9913 and HI 9935 allow
for a proportional band (delta)
of 0 to 2.0 pH. They also
allow for of proportional band
of 0 to 2.0 mS/cm and 0 to
400 ppm for conductivity (EC)
and TDS, respectively. Each
controller also provides for two
independent time cycles from
0 to 90 seconds. The propor-
tional dosage is obtained by
personalizing a current pulse
whose height equals the pH or EC/TDS proportional delta and the
length corresponds to the selected time cycle.
The controller will enter
the proportional dosagethe proportional dosage
the proportional dosagethe proportional dosage
the proportional dosage at the setpoint
plus or minus the preselected delta. It will then keep the dosing relay
activated for a period proportional to the difference between the
actual measurement less the setpoint over the cycle.
NOTE:
If the setting is left at 0 pH, the controller will operate as an
ON/OFF control with no proportional dosage. In this case the
controller will operate with a 0.1 pH hysteresis.
Similarly, if the setting is left at 0 mS/cm or 0 ppm, the controller
will operate as an ON/OFF control with no proportional dosage.
The hysteresis of such an ON/OFF control will be 0.1 mS/cm or 15
ppm, respectively.
Do not set the time cycle to 0Do not set the time cycle to 0
Do not set the time cycle to 0Do not set the time cycle to 0
Do not set the time cycle to 0. This causes the relay to
chatter and can be detrimental to your controlling system and
pump.
Remember to select the “ALK” (alkaline) or “ACID” dosing direc-
tion (see 4 - Functional Diagram) before setting the pH proportional
control. If you are to reduce the pH, choose “ACID” and inversely,
switch to “ALK” to increase the pH level (HI 9913 only).
