8860 Dual Channel Conductivity/Resistivity Controller

Sensor Input Connections

• The 8860 will accept two independent sensor input signals.

The two sensors may be of different cell constant values.

• Do not route sensor cable in any conduit containing AC power

wiring - electrical noise may interfere with the signal.

• Cable shield MUST be maintained through cable splice.
• Use three conductor shielded cable for cable extensions up

to 30 m (100 ft) max. for measurements below 10 M

 (above

0.10 μS).

• Maximum cable length for resistivity measurements above
10

M

is 25 ft, and solution temperatures must be between

20 °C and 100 °C.

Relay and Open Collector Functions
The 8860 is equipped with 4 SPDT relays that can be confi gured
for High alarm, Low alarm, Proportional pulse or USP operation.

Low: Output triggers when process variable is less than

setpoint.

High: Output triggers when process variable is higher than

setpoint.

Off: Disables output pulse.

• Pulse

Operation

The output emits a 100 mS pulse at a rate defi ned by the
Source, Pulse Range and Max PlsRate settings, and by the
process condition. The maximum pulse rate is 400 pulses per
minute.


Example: As the process falls below 10 μS the output will
start pulsing in relation to the process value, the max pulse
endpoint and the programmed pulses/min. Pulse rate
will increase as the process approaches the programmed
endpoint.
