2.7.3 Setting the Recorder Output Span
This menu allows the Recorder Output High and Low limits to be set and also
offers the capability to use the ON SYSTEM ALARM option to communicate
an alarm condition. Use ON SYSTEM ALARM to send a signal to the control
room using the recorder output, to drive any device being controlled to full off,
or to maintain the present level if the analyzer goes into System Alarm status
and shuts off.
The CL17 is supplied with the recorder output set at maximum range. At
maximum range, a chlorine concentration of 0 mg/L provides an output of
4 mA and a concentration of 5 mg/L gives an output of 20 mA. The output
span can be adjusted to bracket any portion of the 0–5 mg/L range with the
4–20mA signal. For instance, this function can be used to bracket a lower
range for increased recorder resolution.
For example: if chlorine concentration of your sample is normally 0.5–0.7
mg/L, the recorder output span can be set for 0–1 mg/L (where 4 mA equals 0
mg/L and 20 mA equals 1 mg/L).
