SECTION 1
Introduction
1.1 SCOPE
This manual provides the necessary information to install,
operate and maintain the Myron L Company’s Aquaswitch/760-
A Aquaswitch. Sections 1 through 3 provide the user with an
applicational description, mounting, wiring and operational
procedures. Section 4 identifies their primary components and
provides the user with easy-to-use calibration and preventive care
procedures.
Section 5 (Appendix A) provides an easily understood Replaceable
Components Chart.
1.1.1 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTIONS
Both instruments have drip/weather-proof housings which can be
panel or surface mounted. The Aquaswitch is packaged within
a compact 6.0" x 4.8" (152mm x 122mm) housing. The 760-A
Aquaswitch is packaged within a 6.0" x 10.8" (152mm x 274mm)
housing. The standard Aquaswitch does not monitor water quality
itself, but should be used with any reliable resistivity controller
such as the Myron L Company’s 750/760 Series Resistivity
Controllers.
NOTE:
The 760-A Aquaswitch is an integrated unit requiring no other
Controller.
AQUASWITCH
Provides automatic switching from exhausted to fresh Dl banks;
push-button override for immediate bank change-over; adjustable
purge timer for “FAILSAFE” operation; front panel LED displays
provide continual status of both Dl banks; and an alarm is
automatically activated as each bank is depleted.
760-A AQUASWITCH
The 760-A Aquaswitch combines the operating features of the
standard Aquaswitch with the additional features of a resistivity
Controller. These include: a linear display meter and a front panel
accessible “SET POINT CHECK” switch. (Set point setting is
internal to discourage unauthorized adjustments).
NOTE:
All specifications for the 760-A Aquaswitch also apply to resistivity
Controller models 760-A2, and 760-A3 unless otherwise
indicated.
