SUMMARY
The SHARK series is designed to be the most
flexible, easy to use, and easy to see multi-pa-
rameter controller/analyzer on the market.
FOUR MEASURING PARAMETERS
Select the parameter you wish to measure from
the easy-to-use LCD menu on the inside front
cover. Choose Conductivity, pH, ORP or Flow.
NO EXTRA CARDS / OPTIONS RE-
QUIRED
Each SHARK comes complete. There are no
extra costs associated with buying boards for
different applications, or buying components to
achieve NEMA 4X.
UNIVERSAL MOUNTING
Universal mounting kit is included for surface,
panel and pipe-mount applications. The 1/4 DIN
enclosure makes panel-mount cutouts and engi-
neering simple.
SNAP-ON TERMINAL CONNECTORS
Wiring is easy with removable / snap-on terminal
connectors.
DISPLAYS & MENUS
There are two displays on SHARK. A bright
LED numeric display with bar graph on the out-
side front panel,and a 2-line, 16-character LCD
display on the inside. The LED readout on the
outside panel can be seen several yards away.
The distinctive, color-coded bar graph will imme-
diately indicate if you are within the process pa-
rameters that you set (green), if the control relays
are on (yellow) and if you are in alarm condition
(red). This makes diagnosing pump and alarm
malfunctions easy. All configuration and control
functions are performed on the LCD menu on the
inside front panel.
CALIBRATION
Calibration is performed easily from the front
panel. Temperature (where applicable) is also
checked from the front. Since this routine main-
tenance does not require opening the front panel
to access the main menu on the inside configura-
tion settings cannot be adjusted by mistake. Pro-
cess and temperature (where applicable) calibra-
tion can also be performed from the LCD menu,
where calibration data (slope, temperature and
efficiency) are displayed. pH can be calibrated
using Manual or Auto Calibration methods. Cali-
bration data can be recalled, indicating calibra-
tion mode, accepted buffer values, actual sensor
input signals, calibration temperature and more.
ANALOG OUTPUTS
The SHARK provides two isolated, independent
and scalable 4-20 mA outputs.
RELAYS WITH CYCLE TIMERS
The instrument also provides control of external
devices using its two independent control relays.
A third relay is pre-set to act as an alarm relay,
but can be used as a process control relay. It has
both high and low on setpoints with adjustable
off setpoints. Factory set for bidirectional control,
both control relays can be set for either a rising or
falling process, with easily programmed on set-
points and off setpoints. Each control relay has a
built-in independent cycle timer, with field-set on
and off times. This feature enables tighter con-
trol of batch processes by eliminating chemical
overshoot.
ENCLOSURE
SHARK is packaged in a rugged NEMA 4X poly-
carbonate enclosure making it ideally suited for
heavy-duty applications such as industrial waste
water neutralization, municipal water and waste
water, pulp and paper, and process control.
