VIII. Variable Second Required Value
In this section, we will cover the set up and programming of the AQUAVAR II for a second sensor input.
This sensor can be either a 4-20mA or 0/2-10V device such as a pressure transducer, flow transduc-
er, heat sensor, etc. When connected to the AQUAVAR II, the output of this second sensor becomes the
new set point. As input from the second sensor changes, the set point will also change.
Example: If the second sensor was a 150 psi 4-20mA pressure transducer and the input to
the AQUAVAR was 10mA, the set point would become 62 psi. If the input dropped to 8mA, the
set point would go to 94 psi. Keep in mind that this change only offsets the set point. Motor
speed continues to be varied by the primary transducer reading of demand change. This
function could be used for chlorine or fertilizer injection where a flow sensor in the main pipe
would track system demand and adjust the pump flow set point to keep the mix percentage
the same.
Electrical
Connect the second sensor as shown to X1/10 and either X1/12 for 4-20mA or X1/13 for 0/2-10V.
