Model LXT-230 Instruction Manu al / 5 Fahrenheit. A toggle function in the Temperature Calibration Menu allows this selection to be performed in the field. 1.7 PID Outpu t (Optional) An optional PID output is available and provides a 4-20 mA, three-mode control signal to a transducer or a final control element.
Model LXT-230 Instruction Manu al / 6 2.0 INSTALLATIO N 2.1 Mounting Three typical inst allation configurations ar e avail able for the LXT-230 transmitte r: universal mounting, han drail mounting, and panel mounting configurations. The universal mounting configuration allows the LXT-230 to be mounted on a wall or a 2” pipe stand.
Model LXT-230 Instruction Manu al / 7 3.0 FAMILIARIZATION This se ction will pro vide an overview of the front panel key functions and the disp lay menu s for a single channel pH and ORP transmitter. Multiple channel transmitters will have the same menus.
Model LXT-230 Instruction Manu al / 8 3.2.2 Main Menu This menu appears after the Copyright Display when power is first applied to the LXT-230. The Main Menu di splays the measured process variable, temperature, and the current output in pe rcent of f ull- scale.
Model LXT-230 Instruction Manu al / 9 The t op line displays the buffer, or calibr ation point , at which the last calibrat ion was performed. For pH transmitters, the bottom line displays the electro de slope, or efficiency, in millivolts per pH (mV/pH).
Model LXT-230 Instruction Manu al / 10 4.0 SENTINEL DIAGNOSTICS The basic menu structure of the LXT-230 transmitter is architecturally the same as the LXT- 230 pH , ORP and PION, with the only va riable being the diagnostic information on the main and special diagnostic menus.
Model LXT-230 Instruction Manu al / 11 To file the input, with the microprocessor, exit the calibrate mode by pressing either menu selection key. The u pper half of the split screen menu displays absolute reference potential (±2 millivolts) directly from the electrode vi a the diagnostic signal co conditione r located in the sensor.
Model LXT-230 Instruction Manu al / 12 5.0 MAINTENANCE If service of the internal components is required, always turn off the power to the instrument. 5.1 Clean ing Cleaning the front panel can be performed with a detergent and water. DO NOT USE ACETONE, ACID OR CAUSTIC SOLUTIO NS ON THE ENCLOSURE SURFACE.
Model LXT-230 Instruction Manu al / 13 6.0 CALIBRATION 6.1 Manual Output Mode To perform calibrations with out interferi ng with control or recorder functions, the LXT-230 incorporates a manual output mode. The current output is set to the desired level and saved until ch anged or released fro m the manual mode.
