INSTALLATION GUIDE
The software in the six (6) channel touchscreen controller is specifically designed to be used with IOTRON™ & ZEUS™
series smart digital HiQDT MODBUS RTU HiQDT pH, ORP, D.O., ISE & EC sensors. All functionality detailed in this
manual can also be performed by the ASTI supplied handheld battery powered communicator (excluding only changing
of the baudrate which is only possible using the Windows software). The Windows software can perform ALL possible
operations on the smart digital MODBUS RTU HiQDT pH, ORP, D.O., ISE & EC sensors. The ASTI supplied HiQDT
HMI+PLC touchscreen controller package that is a turn-key unit available for purchase ready for plug and play
commissioning with a robust software suite. Alternatively any PLC of your choice can be programmed to accomplish the
same features if you prefer. If implementing on your own PLC instead of using the ASTI supplied package the software
layout can serve as a roadmap for your own installation if you wish. All functions performed by this software can also be
accomplished on your own customer supplied PLC with the appropriate modbus function calls (see implementation
guide for details) with the exception of setting the node address (Handheld Communicator or Windows software must be
used to perform these tasks) or baudrate (only the Windows software must be used to perform this particular task).
The software contains the following menus and fields, all of which are accessible starting with the main menu.

values for all connected HiQDT sensors & raw absolute
mV values for all channels in controller configuration. If
the commissioning steps as detailed in page 4 of this
manual were successful completed then sensors added
will be shown in this home screen along together with
corresponding node address in use for each channel.
If for any reason any of the channels that was setup does
not display correctly it is possible to use the “ASTI
Windows Datalogging & Graphing Windows Software for
3TX Transmitters with MODBUS Output” to troubleshoot
the HiQDT MODBUS sensor configuration. In this case
you would temporarily disconnect the D+ & D- input
leads to the HMI and temporarily redirect the output to
this Windows software (contact factory for assistance).
Please refer to the separate manual for this software for
instructions on how to configure it for use with the
HiQDT sensors for such a purpose.

“Select Channel” Menu


The select channel is a global setting. Most all tasks
to be performed in the remainder of the menu such
as sensor type & node address, sensor calibration,
setup and scaling of analog output and relays use
the channel that is set in this menu.

You must first desginate whether you are adding or


removing a channel from service. After selecting the
channel you can set the sensor type for that channel
by clicking on the “Select Sensor Type” to navigate
directly to this screen.

The working channel can be changed by clicking on


the number shown in blue which will load a screen
where a new channel can be entered. Valid choices
are one to six (1 to 6). You will be asked to confirm
each channel addition or removal.

If adding a new sensor after designating the channel


to which it will be assigned you will then
automatically proceed to “Sensor Type” screen for
configuration. The channel number must be
designated before the valid node address for the
particular sensor type can be appropriately assigned.

IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT BAUDRATE:


The default baudrate for all HiQDT sensors to be used with the six channel controller is 19,200 kbps. Default baudrate for
the HiQDT sensors is 19,200 unless otherwise requested at time of purchase. If the baudrate is changed to 9,600 kbps on
your HiQDT sensor it cannot be used with the ASTI HiQDT touchscreen controller.
ONLY the ASTI HiQDT Windows software can change the baudrate of the HiQDT smart digital RS-485 MODBUS
RTU sensors (see manual for details).

IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT NODE ADDRESS:


The default node address for HiQDT sensors always assumes channel 1. The default node address will always be exactly
the same as the sensor type. For pH the sensor type and default node address is 1. For standard range ORP the sensor
type and default node address is 2 while for wide range ORP the sensor type and default node address is 3. For dissolved
oxygen (D.O.) the sensor type and default node address is 4. For Ion Selective (ISE) the sensor type and default node
address is 5. For Conductivity (EC) the sensor type and default node address is 6.
IMPORTANT NOTE: ONLY the ASTI HiQDT Windows software or the ASTI handheld communicator (HHC) can
change the node address of HiQDT smart digital RS-485 MODBUS RTU sensors (see respective manuals for details).

ORDERING NOTES:
HiQDT sensors can be ordered with node addresses pre-assigned other than the default values shown above. This is
done by adding “-NX” to the end of the part number where X is the node address to be factory assigned. If not special
indication is made then the sensor will come with the standard default node address scheme as detailed above. For cases
where the sensors are purchased together with the controller a logical preset node scheme will be provided so that all
sensors will automatically show up in the home display screen allowing for plug and play operation right out of the box.

SUMMARY OF CORRECT SEQUENCE FOR CALIBRATION OF HiQDT pH SENSOR WITH BUFFERS


1. Perform temperature calibration (manual mode only)
2. Select the three pH buffers to be used to perform the calibration (See Appendix A, B & C)
3. Perform pH ‘Offset’ Calibration (Autoread or Manual) a.k.a. Asymmetric Potential abbreviated as A.P.
4. Perform pH ‘Acid Slope’ Calibration (Autoread or Manual)
5. Perform pH ‘Alkaline Slope’ Calibration (Autoread or Manual) a.k.a. Base Slope
6. If desired, perform adjustment for agreement with laboratory reference value of process grab sample
with pH ‘Offset’ mode. Account for all temperature induced effects if this last step is performed.

“Calibrate Sensor Menu”


All sensor calibrations can be shown from the
“Display Current Calibrations” selection. The
“Autobuffer Calibration” is only valid for pH
sensors. The “Manual pH/ORP, pION, Auto DO &
Conductivity Calibration” mode is valid for all
sensors. “Adjust Sensor Dampener” and “Reset All
Calibrations” tools are also valid for all sensor types.
The “D.O. Sensor Setup” allows changing salinity
and air pressure used to compute percent saturation.
For faster calibration operation you can temporarily
adjust the sensor dampener to a shorter time than
when it is in field use for continuous measurements.

“Display Sensor Calibrations”


The calibration values for the sensor in the current
working channel can be shown in this screen.
Simply click on the Current Working Channel
shown in blue and choice the channel that you wish
to view if the desired selection is now what is
shown. Finally to view the current calibrations then
click “Get Calibrations” button and the values for
the selected channel will be shown.

The calibrations will be loaded as appropriate for the


given sensor type that is assigned to that channel. In
the case shown to the right a calibration was very
peformed fairly recently and so the time since
calibration is shown as 3.17 days. If this display
sensor calibrations screen is shown immediately
after calibration then the time since calibration
should show as 0.0 days instead.

“Auto Calibrate pH Only” Menu


The autocalibration is only available if the sensor type
is pH for the channel to be calibrated. You need only to
select the channel for which you wish to perform
autobuffer calibration on a pH sensor to begin the
process.

You will always start by performing the asymmetric


potential (offset) calibration for the pH sensor followed
by the acid slope calibration and finally the alkaline
slope calibration.

It is recommended to place the channel to be calibrated


on output hold before proceeding with the calibration.

“Auto pH Buffer A.P. Cal”


The current pH and temperature are shown for selected
channel in this screen along with the existing currently
used asymmetric potential offset calibration as well as
the time since this calibration was last performed.
Choices of pH buffer for auto A.P. calibration are 7.00
or 6.86. After selecting buffer click on “Calibrate”
button. If calibration is successful then “Calibration
Complete” is shown. After dampener time expires the
new calibration result will be shown and the time since
calibration will show as 0.00 days. The exact value of

“Manual Calibrate pH Offset”


The manual calibration pH offset can be performed with
a pH buffer or else used to allow for agreement between
the inline process reading and an offline grab sample
determination. Such adjustments to a grab sample
value should always be done in the ‘Offset’ mode after
all pH buffer calibrations are performed.

The current pH reading and temperature are shown for


the selected channel in this screen along with the
existing current used asymmetric potential offset
calibration as well as the time since this calibration was
last performed.

Enter the value to which you wish to adjust the reading


of the pH sensor. In the case that a pH buffer is used the
exact value at the current temperature should be entered
(see appenix “A” and “B” for further details).

After pressing the “Calibrate” button the screen will


display “Calibrating”. If the calibration is successful it

It is important to recall that the acid slope and base slope


calibrations for pH sensors should always be done after
performing the offset calibration first. For any type of
calibrations to force agreement between the inline
process reading and an offline determined value this
should ALWAYS be done in the manual offset
calibration mode and never in the manual slope
calibration mode. Contact factory for assistance if the
best practice calibration procedures are in doubt.

A grab sample must be taken and analyzed from the
location where sensor is installed. This is typically done
using a portable photometer for most ions. Contact the
factory for assistance to procure necessary equipment to
perform a timely grab sample analysis of the measured
sample to enable performing critical offset calibration.

!!! Before proceeding to the manual ion selective (ISE)


slope calibration it is necessary to have previously
performed the ISE offset calibration first !!!

The use of standard solutions and slope calibrations is


only recommended for advanced users that are very,
very familiar with all aspects of ion selective sensors,
ionic strength adjusters as well as the use of standard
addition techniques necessary to successfully
performed such calibrations. Contact factory for

“Manual Calibrate Conductivity Slope”


The manual calibration of the conductivity sensor slope
can be performed to either allow for agreement between
the inline process reading and an offline grab sample
determination or else to calibrate to a known
conductivity standard solutions. Such adjustments to a
grab sample value should always be done in the
‘Slope’ mode.

Usual procedure is required to select the conductivity


sensor channel that you wish to calibrate before selecting
“Calibrate Conductivity” choice from the menu.

Enter the value to which you wish to adjust the reading


of the conductivity sensor. The supported calibration
slope limits are 0.3000 to 1.700 from the raw
conductivity reading of the sensor. The min and max
supported values to be entered for the slope calibration
are shown for reference purposes to ensure that the
entered value does not exceed the permissible limits.
Calibrations are ONLY performed in conductivity
units even if computed units are selected as the basis
of the analog outputs and relays.

After pressing the “Calibrate” button the screen will


display “Calibrating”. If the calibration is successful it
will show “Calibrationg Complete”. The calibration
might not be successful if the calibration limits are
exceeded or else is a communication error occurs.

Finally after the dampener time is expired the new


calibration results will be shown and the time since
calibration will show as 0.00 days.

If the slope calibration is to be used to adjust the inline


process reading to an offline determined value of a grab
sample from the installed location analysis is typically
done with field portable 4-electrode conductivity meter
to minimize the time between taking the grab sample
and entering the offline determined reference value for
the slope calibration as short as possible.

If the conductivity sensor is to be calibrated to a


standard solution the channel should be placed on
output hold prior to removing the sensor from the
process service to avoid any issues with the connected
devices using the analog outputs, contact relays or
MODBUS TCP outputs.

Please see Appendix “G” for additional information


about conductivity sensors before commissioning.

You need to select the channel for which you wish to
perform the fully automated dissolved oxygen sensor
calibration. If you are not sure prefer to the main
screen as it will display on what channel D.O. sensor(s)
have been configured.

The usual caveats apply before performing calibration


on you dissolved oxygen (D.O.) sensor. The channel
that will be calibrated should be placed on hold prior to
performing the calibration especially if the values
obtained from the sensor are used for any type of real-
time closed loop control purposes.

The D.O. sensor should be at thermal equilibrium


before proceeding and be clean and dry, suspended
over a source of water in cases of low humidity at the
location where the sensor is to be calibrated.

The TEMPERATURE should always be CALIBRATED


FIRST on the dissolved oxygen sensor. The reason is
that the temperature is used as the main basis of
obtaining the dissolved oxygen ppm value for the
current dry in air condition used as the basis of the
automated calibration routine. If the temperature is not
stable before proceeding and not well calibrated you
can obtain suboptimal results when calibrating the D.O.
sensor in the field.

NOTE 1: The percent saturation value shown on this


calibration screen (register 30006 from the HiQDT D.O.
sensor) may differ from the percent saturation value that is
shown on the main display. The percent (%) saturation
value that is computed and shown in the calibration screen
excludes the salinity correction since this is not appropriate
during the dry in air calibration process of the sensor. The
percent (%) saturation that is computed and displayed in the
main screen (as well as the basis for all analog & digital
outputs and relays) including the salinity correction. The
ambinet air pressure that is user entered is always used when
computing the precent (%) saturation value in all modes.

than the last 8 hours of trending is available for each
channel. Of course all is automatically logged in
permanent manner onto the integral USB flash drive
and can be downloaded remotely via FTP as desired.
Selecting the desired channel will load the trend
display graph that is appropriate for the sensor type.

In the six (6) channel touchscreen controller used for


these screenshots channel #1 is pH, channel #2 is
standard/high range conductivity (EC), channel #3
is ultralow range conductivity (EC), channel #4 is
dissolved oxygen (D.O.) and channel #5 is ion
selective (ISE) while channel #6 is ORP (not shown).
These five representative trend graphs shown below
illustrate what typically loads for each sensor type.

It is possible to rewind and fast forward the graph to


anywhere in the last 8 hour period. At any sampling
point clicking on the graph will yield the exact
process and temperature values at that moment. For

“Relay Log File” Menu


When a relay is turned off or on this event is
recorded and can be viewed in this “Relay Event
Status” table for archival purposes. In addition
selected non alarm relay events are also recorded in
this same log file such as loss of communications for
a particular channel.

An email will be sent to the user defined distribution


list each time that an event is recorded in the log.

The new alarm events can be acknowledged from


this screen with the time of acknowledgement
recorded. The event will be scrolled across the top of
the home screen until it is acknowledged.

Events that are acknowledged but still active will be


shown in yellow. One the alarm condition is no
longer present then it will switch to green

Access 2.0 feature the hardware key of the HMI need
to be determined from the onscreen menu accessible
from icon located at the bottom right of the screen.
A password is required to accessed the onscreen
features integral to the Maple Systems HMI. The
default password is “111111” as shipped from the
factory. This can and should be changed after the
initial commissioning for good security practice.
Navigate to “Easy Access 2.0” tab to find hardware
key (HWkey) required for Maple Systems activation
card to register your device for remote access. It
may be necessary to hit “Refresh” button after
entering valid Account & Password information.
The EZ Access 2.0 tab on your system should look
similar after following the steps that are detailed in
the webpages linked below. You must create the
EZAccess 2.0 domain and users before you can
activate the HMI in question on screen.
INITIAL SETUP:
Follow Steps # 1 to 5 after the text “Activate units using an EasyAccess 2.0 Activation card (separate purchase).
See Products tab for complete list” in the webpage linked below:
https://www.maplesystems.com/iiot/easy-access-2.0/

You will need to start either a single-connection or


multi-connection VNC session from the system
settings. Once this is successfully done your screen
will look similar to the one shown to the right. It is
VERY strongly suggested to use a completely
different password for VNC login than the local
password used to access the system settings. This
allows for a two-tiered access scheme were remote
users can only alter system settings if provided
with the additional different local password.

Finally you will need to start the EZAccess 2.0


service from the EasyAccess 2.0 screen on the
controller. This screen in an active running state is
shown to the right. Your screen should look similar
if your setup has been successfully performed.

“Remote Access 2.0” Remote Login


The core network information needs to be entered from
the appropriate tab on the system settings (see right).
This will ensure that there exists proper connectivity to
activate and use the EZAccess installation for the given
HMI as well as for the communications required for the
MODBUS TCP slave features (see previous section for
details on the register assignments for each sensor).
The network used can be either public node or else be
located on a subnet behind a firewall.

It is possible to remotely access the controller that has


been properly setup for EZAccess 2.0 from a Windows
PC, smartphone running iOS or Android as well as any
tablets that are also running iOS or Android. This
manual will focus on remote access from a Windows
PC. Please install the apps on your smartphone or
tablet and follow the provided instructions if you wish
to access from one of these devices.

For your convenience the most current version of the


EZAccess Setup & VNC Viewer for Windows at time of
dispatch is provided on the USB flash drive connected
to your HMI (see screenshot to the top on the right).
Please install these two software on the Windows
machine from which you wish to remotely access your
controller and setup the path of the VNC viewer.

The most current version can be downloaded directly


from Maple Systems and Real VNC websites:
https://www.maplesystems.com/SupportCenter/index.htm
https://www.realvnc.com/en/connect/download/viewer/

Each controller can be assigned an HMI name. This is


what will appear when you login via the EZ Access
Windows application and must choose the machine to
which you will connect. In the example to the right the
HMI in question has been named as “6 Channel HiQDT
Controller”. For your field installation the most
descriptive name is recommended for ease of deciding
which machine you desire to remotely access.

Clicking on the appropriate icon will load the VNC


session. Click on the VNC session and follow the on-
screen instructions. The password to be entered is the
one that is set from the onscreen menu with the default
value being “111111”. The password for the local
machine can be changed from the appropriate onscreen
tab (see screenshot to right for visualization purposes).

Downloading & Viewing Logged Data from Controller – Part 1 of 2


Your controller automatically records the process values,
temperature and raw mV input from each connected
sensor that has been properly setup for an available
channel every 30 seconds including a date stamp for
each logged data set. In addition the sensor analytic
information and calibrations are also recorded every 30
minutes for each channel. The sampling rates from the
factory are set at the time the software is installed and
cannot be changed later from the HMI in the field. If for
some reason these default sampling rates are not
suitable alternate sampling rates can be achieved on a
special order software configuration basis (MOQ may
apply for such special configuration orders).

The data that is logged must be must be converted from


the “DTL” file format in the EZware Plus Downloaded
software. This software is provided on the 32GB USB
flash drive connected to the HMI5070 touchscreen of the
controller. To the right is shown the typical software
utilities that are provided at time of dispatch from the
factory. It is recommended to copy them to a safe
location to backup and archival purposes. Install the
EZware Plus Downloader software.

Navigate to the Data Conversion tab in this software and


click on the Easy Converter icon. This will load program
as shown to the right.

Each individual DTL file that is created for each channel


on a daily basis can be converted individually to the
excel worksheet or else multiple days can be combined
into file. Can example of converting the daily process
values into a single file for channel one is shown to the
right for visualization purposes as an example.

Downloading & Viewing Logged Data from


Controller – Part 2 of 2

An example of the window return the successful


combining of multiple days of process value datalog
files into a single excel file is shown to the right as an
example for a multi-file batch conversion operation.

The folder directory for the USB flash drive in the


controller is shown to the right. For each sensor channel
that has been properly configured there will exist a
channel directory to store the process values. A new
DTL file with the date is created inside of the folder. For
each sensor channel that has ever had a calibration
performed there will exist a calibration directory for that
channel. For each sensor channel that has ever had the
sensor diagnostic information viewed there will exist a
“Registers” directory. You will need to nagivate to each
folder separate and create either the individual or
combined excel worksheet files for further workup and
analysis. Since you will need to place this USB flash
drive back into the controller for further datalogging it is
recommended to copy such file to your local Windows
machine as well as onto the USB flash drive.

On the following pages you will find examples of the exported Excel worksheets for the process values, sensor
calibrations and analytic information for channel 1 for visualization purposes. The process values are exported
in floating point engineered values as they have been converted on the controller from the raw unsigned
integer values sent from the sensors. The sensor analytic and calibration information is exported in the raw
unsigned integer values exactly as they are sent from the sensors. In order to convert them as may be required
into a more intuitive engineered value you will need to use the RS-485 MODBUS RTU sensor implementation
guide as the basis for making any such conversions.

REMOTELY Downloading Logged Data from Touchscreen Controller


In addition to accessing logged data by removing the USB flash drive and following instructions on the
previous pages the touchscreen controllers also allow for the logged data as detailed in the previous
pages to be accessed remotely via FTP. This can be done on a local subnet, a public IP or securely
behind a firewall using EZ Access 2.0. Instructions are below for how to access this logged data.
Note that data cannot be deleted but rather only downloaded.

Note 1: Determine the IP address of the HMI. You can find the IP address by opening the “System
Information” window from the System Toolbar in HMI. For purposes of this instruction set we shall
assume the HMI is on a local subnet with the IP address 192.168.1.50 although you will need to find
the actual IP address of your machine. If using EZ Access 2.0 you will need to note the IP address
that was dynamically assigned when you connect to the desired HMI and use that IP address.

Note 2: Make sure your computer is connected to the same local area network as the HMI.
Note 3: If connecting to HMI directly from Ethernet port on your computer, you must use an ethernet
crossover cable. If going through an Ethernet switch, you can use a straight- thru or crossover cable.

From Windows Explorer or Web Browser:

1. Enter the following address, using the IP address of the HMI:


ftp://uploadhis:[email protected]
2. 111111 is the default “Upload history” password. If your password differs from the default please
use the ACTUAL password set in your HMI. It is STRONGLY recommended to change the
upload history password from the default for best security practice.
3. Press “Enter.” Click on “usbdisk” and then the actual USB flash drive present (typically “disk_a_1”)
4. Click on the folder names (Directory) to access the individual files. Click on a file to download it
to your computer. With this remote access method files are downloaded individually.

In addition to downloading data from Windows Explorer or Web Browser it can also be accessed
from any FTP client such as FileZilla (filezilla-project.org/). Using an FTP client has the advantage
of being able to download multiple files automated in batch. The settings would be as follows:

Host:
192.168.1.50 (use ACTUAL IP address when logging in to your particular HMI)

Encryption:
None (Plain FTP)

User:
uploadhis

Password:
111111 (use your ACTUAL password if it differs from the default)

NIST traceable pH buffers are the most commonly used methods for calibration of pH sensors. On each pH buffer bottle
is written the exact pH value of the buffer at variety of temperature conditions. Listed above are exact pH values for the
most commonly used buffers between 0 and 60 °C. When using the ASTI HiQDT Touchscreen Controller for calibration
of your IOTRON™ series Smart Digital HiQDT type RS-485 MODBUS RTU pH sensors use the autobuffer calibration
mode if using the pH buffers detailed above. For any other pH buffers you will need to obtained the exact pH value for
the current temperature condition. This information is typically provided on the label of the pH buffer.

NOTE: ASTI HiQDT touchscreen controller software automatically corrects for temperature induced change to buffer
to compute the exact pH value of buffer automatically when calibrations are performed with autobuffer calibration
mode. Exact pH value of the buffer at the current temperature obtained from the connected HiQDT pH sensor is used
for calibration. This may differ from the nominal value of the buffer at the reference 25 degree Celsius condition.

To use any pH buffer besides 1.68, 4.00, 6.86, 7.00, 9.18, 10.01 or 12.45 you will need to account for the temperature
induced shift of the pH value for the buffer in both the Windows software as well as any other devices used to perform
calibrations of the HiQDT pH sensors. There are no reliable pH buffers below 1.69 and above 12.45 and so specialized
and custom calibration schemes needed to be used for these situations. Contact factory for assistance in such cases.

Inquire to the factory if you plan to measure consistently below pH=1.0 or above pH=13.0 for special assistance. As can
be seen from mere inspection the temperature dependence of high pH buffers is much more significant than for low pH
buffers. Similarly for process solutions with high pH the temperature induced pH dependence may be quite significant
and should be considered when trying to control such systems with fluctuating temperature. Process solutions with
relatively weak ionic strength (low conductivity) are also rather prone to higher temperature induced pH shifts whereas
process solution with relativley high ionic strength (high conductivity) are less prone to temperature induced pH shifts.

APPENDIX “B”
Temperature Considerations for Calibrating pH Sensors with pH Buffers – Part 2 of 2

The HiQDT touchscreen controller automatic calibration mode computes the exact values of the pH 1.68, 4.00, 6.86, 7.00,
9.18, 10.01 and 12.45 buffers in the automatic calibration mode for anywhere between 0 to 60 °C. If calibrating with pH
buffers in the temperature condition below 0°C or above 60 °C automatic calibration mode cannot be used (manual mode
must be used instead). The HiQDT touchscreen controller software can also perform manual calibration to any pH value
for Offset, Slope Low (Acidic) or Slope High (Alkaline). In this way this controller is not limited to pH 1.68, 4.00, 6.86,
7.00, 9.18, 10.00 and 12.45 buffers for calibration but rather can perform offset and slope calibrations to any value desired.

Temperature compensation only accounts for the change in the mV response of the pH sensor itself with temperature.
The type of temperature induced shifts such as those demonstrated in the table above for the pH buffers are NOT
corrected in default Nernstian temperature compensation scheme. For process solutions the change in the pH value with
temperature can be significantly more pronounced than for pH buffers which are inherently designed to shift in only the
most minimal way due to changes in temperature, dilution, evaporation and other typical conditions in field use.
Thankfully the HiQDT-pH sensors allow for a user defined temperature compensation coefficient to account for the NET
temperature effects. The temperature impact on the pH sensor and the temperature impact on the measured solution
cannot be cleanly separated (deconvoluted). It is, however, possible to determine the effective net mV per °C change and
enter this as a custom temperature compensation coefficient. Contact the ASTI factory for assistance with such situations
requiring special temperature compensation schemes. The default temperature compensation setting is the classical
Nernstian 198μV (0.198mV) per °C with the allowable range of 000-999 μV to any custom value for your given process.
The temperature compensation coefficient can be changed by the Windows software or handheld communicator.

APPENDIX “C”

HiQDT-pH “ Buffer Choices for Autocalibration

AVAILABLE pH BUFFERS FOR AUTOCALIBRATION MODE:


Asymmetric Potential (A.P): 7.00 or 6.86
Acid Slope: 4.00 of 1.68
Alkaline Slope: 10.00 or 9.18 or 12.45

CALIBRATION SCHEME # 1 – Typical for most installations in the USA


Asymmetric Potential (A.P): 7.00
Acid Slope: 4.00
Alkaline Slope: 10.00

This scheme is the most common pH buffer scheme for most customers in the USA. The 10.01 pH buffer must
be used carefully since it is more prone to shifting substantially more than the very stable 4.00 or even the 7.00
pH buffer. Intrusion of carbon dioxide into the 10.01 pH buffer from the atmosphere is the main culprit
creating an erroneous non-temperature induced shift in pH by exceeding the buffer capacity. Care should be
taken that the pH10 buffer is fresh to ensure relaible alkaline slope calibration results.

CALIBRATION SCHEME # 2 – Typical for most installations in Europe


Asymmetric Potential (A.P): 6.86
Acid Slope: 4.00
Alkaline Slope: 9.18

Typical values for most European pH installations are 4.00, 6.86 and 9.18 pH buffers. This is the best practice
pH buffer scheme for most pH measurements that do not commonly go much below pH 4.00 and or else much
above pH 9.20. The 6.86 & 9.18 pH buffers are most stable than the 7.00 & 10.01 pH buffer counterparts but are
still more prone to shifting then the very stable 4.00 pH buffer. Care should be taken that the pH 9.18 buffer is
fresh to ensure best alkaline slope calibration results

CALIBRATION SCHEME # 3 – For batch style installations where pH can vary quite considerably
Asymmetric Potential (A.P): 1.68
Acid Slope: 6.86
Alkaline Slope: 12.45

This pH buffer calibration scheme is typical for batch type process applications that often go below pH2 and
above pH12. The 1.69 and 6.86 pH buffers are quite stable but the 12.45 pH buffer shifts in value quite easily.
Great care should be taken when using the 12.45 buffer to ensure accurate results. In particular this buffer
should always be in code, well stored in a cool dry place and not exposed to light or air. Make sure that the
12.45 pH buffer is always fresh to ensure reliable alkaline slope calibrations results.

APPENDIX “D”

HiQDT-pH “ Best Practice Tips for Calibration with pH Buffers

TEMPERATURE OFFSET CALIBRATION SETUP FOR AUTOREAD:

It is best practice to wait until the temperature reading on the sensor is no longer moving before selecting the
setup temperature and starting calibration(s) with pH buffers. The temperature of the sensor may take some
time to reach the ambient conditions of the pH buffer solution(s) if it was previously installed into field service
at conditions that are significantly below or above the ambient temperature.

GENERAL BEST PRACTICE COMMENTS FOR CALIBRATION WITH pH BUFFERS

Only the amount of buffer required for the given calibration should be dispensed. Buffers should not be
reused to avoid dilution & cross-contamination. Buffers should not be left exposed to air or direct light for
prolonged periods of time to avoid the impact of dissolved carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and other
potential decomposition pathways. Special care should be taken the pH buffers above 7.00 are always fresh
when used for calibrations as these tend to loose the integrity of their values much faster than pH buffers
below 7.00. Buffers should be stored in a cool, dry location away from light and chemicals. The pH sensor
should at a stable ambient temperature before performing any calibration.

APPENDIX “E”
Automatic Calculation of Theoretical 100% Dissolved Oxygen Saturation
at any Temperature & Pressure for Accurate Calibration & Measurement
The HiQDT-DO sensor has preprogrammed the correct 100% dissolved oxygen saturation levels valid at any
temperature and pressure. This is important for two main purposes: 1) to ensure accurate calibration of the
sensor which is performed dry in air and 2) when the percent (%) saturation is displayed and output for
purposes of monitoring and control. The graph below demonstrate the impact of both temperature and
pressure on the dissolved oxygen (DO) ppm levels that constitute 100% saturation condition.

For the calibration function, either the field condition should be 100% relative humidity for best accuracy or
else the sensor should be suspended dry in air but over a water source to simulate locally the 100% relative
humidity condition. The water molecule in air (humidity) is then saturated with oxygen in manner that can be
fully described by the ambient temperature and pressure as shown above. When placed into service, the
galvanic DO sensor will measure the ppm levels at the installation depth. To convert this measured ppm
value into percent (%) saturation the HiQDT-DO sensor uses the internally stored curve visualization above.

APPENDIX “F”
Automatic Calculation of Theoretical 100% Dissolved Oxygen Saturation
at any Temperature & Pressure for Accurate Calibration & Measurement
The HiQDT-DO has preprogrammed the correct 100% dissolved oxygen saturation levels valid at not only any
temperature and pressure but also corrected for salinity. This is important for applications where not only
fresh water will be present but also for brackish and salt water sources in variable amounts. The graph below
demonstrates the impact of salinity on the dissolved oxygen (DO) ppm levels that constitute 100% saturation
condition at the nominal 760mm pressure condition. For simplicity of visualization just one set of curves is
shown although the analyzer can perform this compensation any temperature, pressure or salinity.

This salinity correction is only required as a correction to the computation of the % saturation from the
measured DO ppm levels for the inline measurement. Since the calibration is done dry in air, salinity
correction is not required for this part of operation. Since the impact of salinity is considerable as shown in the
graph above, it must be corrected carefully at any level of salinity and temperature. The salinity value in
standard PSU (PPT) units can be entered into the HiQDT-DO sensor to perform this correction. The value of
the salinity can be determined by a handheld meter or else monitoring continuously using a conductivity
transmitter from which one can readily convert into common salinity units.

Ultralow Range Conductivity Sensors for Ultrapure Water (UPW)


The conductivity of pure water varies significantly with temperature in a
well-defined but non-linear fashion as detailed in the graph to left. This
behavior is preprogrammed into the HiQDT-CON-L MODBUS RTU
conductivity sensors for the automatic temperature compensation feature
to make it suitable for ultrapure water (UPW) type applications.
Although the recommended cell constant for performing conductivity
measurement in UPW is K=0.01/cm for best resolution and lower
bounds of measurement there may be situations where this K=0.01/cm
cell constant cannot be used for the planned installation location
because of limitations such as piping arrangement and low-flow. The
higher cell constants of K=0.05/cm or K=0.10/cm can be used instead in
such cases albeit they require the sample to be at a higher temperature
to ensure best results. Table below details recommended minimum
temperature for various cell constants for use in UPW. The minimum
temperature for UPW measurement for each cell is determined based
upon the lowest absolute conductivity value for which the cell constant is
recommended & temperature at which this conductivity occurs for UPW.
Resistivity are computed units are the inverse of the measured
conductivity value.

below supports any cell constant in any range mode without changing programming of MODBUS RTU master PLC device:
1) Converting registers 30001 & 30003 for conductivity sensors into µS/cm conductivity units
To display calibrated & temperature compensated conductivity in µS/cm units, use the following formula:
uS/cm = ( ( REG30001 * REG40019 ) * REG40018 ) / 50,000
To display calibrated raw conductivity in µS/cm units use register 30003 instead of 30001 in formula above.
2) Converting µS/cm conductivity units into native 0-50,000 step sensor resolution units
When performing the autocalibration calls on the conductivity sensor you will need to convert from the engineered µS/cm conductivity units
to the 0 to 50,000 native resolution units of the conductivity sensor using this formula:
Native 0-50,000 sensor resolution units = ( uS/cm * 50,000 ) / ( REG40019 * REG40018 )
Native 0-50,000 sensor resolution units are what is sent to register 40011 (ultralow slope).

SPECIAL NOTES ABOUT ULTRALOW-10X STYLE SPECIAL ORDER SENSORS:


It is not possible to tell whether the sensor that you have is the Ultralow style or the Ultralow-10X style simply from looking at register 40018 since
this would be 2 in both cases. The only way to tell that you have the Ultralow-10X style hardware is that the nominal cell constant detailed in
register 40019 will be 10 times higher than the actual cell constant as indicated on the sensor label. This ten-fold deviation between the nominal and
the actual cell constant is what is to be expected if you have purchased the Ultralow-10X style sensor. The range of the Ultralow-10X follows what
would be expected if the actual cell constant was ten times higher for the same ultralow sensor configuration. Contact factory if you should have any
questions or concerns prior to ordering.
