¬Alarm LED
The Alarm LED provides visual indication of when the control limit has been
exceeded. The control limit can be set for a “too high” or a “too low” alarm.
See section 3.5.
-Limit Control
Adjust this control to the Temperature value at which the Alarm LED and
(optional) relay output are activated. See section 3.5.
®Zero Calibrate Control
Adjust this control to calibrate the miniCHEM-Temp sensor. See section
4.1.
¯Span
This control is not required for the miniCHEM-Temp.
°Function Switch
The Function Switch is used to select the mode of operation. See section 2.
±Display Window
The miniCHEM-Temp has a large, easy to read LCD display. The units of
measurement are clearly shown in the window beneath the display.
ÆTerminal Cover
The terminal cover provides easy access to all of the connections, (optional)
relay output fuse, configuration jumpers and user-adjustable trimmers. The
cover is water resistant to IP65.

2. Operating Modes
The function switch is used to select the required mode. The four operating modes
available are…
1. SET LIMIT :Switch to SET LIMIT when setting the Temperature value at
which the Alarm LED and (optional) relay output are
activated. The relay output is not operational in this mode.
See section 3.5.
2. STANDBY :Switch to STANDBY to inhibit the Alarm LED and
(optional) output relay action. Select this mode for
calibration, or when automatic control is not required.
3. AUTO :Switch to AUTO to enable the Alarm LED and (optional)
relay output. These will be activated when the Temperature
is outside the limit value. See section 3.5.
4. MANUAL :Switch to MANUAL to manually activate the Temperature
control device when the optional relay output is fitted. The
relay output will be activated for as long as the
miniCHEM-Temp is in this mode, regardless of the
Temperature reading. See section 7.

3. Installation and Set-up
3.1 Connection and Configuration Diagram
The diagram below is provided as a reference for the terminal connections,
configuration jumpers and user-adjustable trimmers that are discussed throughout
this section.

3.2 Mounting the Enclosure
The miniCHEM-Temp can be wall-mounted with 3 screws. Two mounting points
are located underneath the terminal cover, and are positioned so that they do not
affect the waterproofing of the enclosure. The third mounting point is centrally
located near the top of the rear of the enclosure, and has been designed to hook
over a screw-head. The dimensions for the mounting screw centres are provided on
the rear of the enclosure. The last page of this manual may be photocopied or
removed for use as a drilling template.
3.3 Mounting the Sensor
Mounting the sensor is a very important aspect of the installation, and is often
done incorrectly. In automatic control situations, the sensor should always be
mounted as close as possible to the control point (ie. heater or cooling tower etc.).
This will cause the sensor to detect the change in Temperature immediately, and
shut automatic control off until mixing has taken place. For in-line mounting, it is
important that Temperature control is upstream. Additionally, the line can be run
through a mixing chamber, such as a large drum, to ensure that the areas of
varying temperatures have mixed in properly by the time the solution flows past
the sensor. There must always be adequate flow of fresh sample past the sensor
for accurate monitoring. The diagrams below show typical mounting arrangements
for “dip” mounting and in-line mounting.
Dip Mounting In-line Mounting
1. Control point close to sensor. 1. Injection point upstream from
2. Continuous stirring. and close to sensor.
2. Mixing container after injection
and before sensor.
