• Introducing
The DCR-WEB is a non-contact loop control system that is shipped ready to
be put into service. It has been completely tested at the factory and is easily
configured to any application. The sensor is fully programmable to meet the
needs of all different kinds of loop control applications. Operating parameters
are modified using 4 push buttons and a 2 X 8 alphanumeric display. The
controls are accessed by removing the front cover. It is recommended that this
manual be read before attempting to make any changes to the default
parameters.
The unit is available in a clear plastic enclosure. There are two types of
transducers availably. The electrostatic type in a 2 in. x 3.3 in. x 1.6 in.
enclosure. The ceramic type in a 3 in. x 3 in. x 2 in. enclosure. Both types are
attached to the controller with a 6 ft. length of RG6 coaxial cable.
Two outputs can be wired by the customer are labeled “RLY1” and “RLY2”.
These outputs are 5 A relays suitable for 120 VAC and up to 5 A continuous.
They are fully programmable outputs.
There are two terminal sections on the board. Each can be wired to a switch.
• INV-SW allows the user to invert the 0-10 V output without changing
software settings.
• AP-SW allows the user to switch between two different pre-programmed
settings. For example, two different filter settings and trip distances for
different materials can be stored and selected with a switch.
