2. Product Description
Application The AMI Codes-II CC is a complete monitoring system for the auto-
Range matic, continuous measurement and dosing control of chlorine
based on the DPD colorimetric method APHA 4500 Cl-G and on
EN ISO 7393-2.
It can be used for measuring disinfectants in:
Pools and sanitary water
Cooling water
Waste water effluent
It is also applicable for water containing additives like corrosion in-
hibitors, cyanuric acid and antiscaleants.
Determines free available chlorine, total chlorine and calculates
monochloramine, dichloramine and combined chlorine.
Necessary reagents:
Oxycon on-line DPD
Oxycon on-line Buffer
Oxycon on-line KI.

Product Description
Fluidics The sample flows through the sample inlet [R] and the inlet filter [H]
into the constant head [A]. Adjust the flow regulating valve [F] so
that always a small part of the sample flows through the overflow
tube [B] into the constant head drain [Q].
Free available A part of the sample flows through the photometer inlet [C] into the
chlorine mixing chamber [E], where the reagents [M] and [N] are added by
the peristaltic pump [D] and mixed with the sample. The mixed
sample flows through the photometer [K] where the free available
chlorine is measured.

Product Description
Total chlorine 1 After the measurement of free available chlorine is finished the so-
lenoid valve [G] is energized for a short time and reagent [O] is
added to determine total chlorine 1.
Total chlorine 2 To ensure the necessary reaction time of 2 min. for the determina-
tion of total chlorine 2, the sample flow is stopped by the solenoid
valve [J]. After the time has elapsed, total chlorine is measured and
solenoid valve [J] opens again.

After the measurement the sample flows through the outlet of the
photometer where it will be aerated through air inlet [I] to generate
bubbles. Then the sample flows through the bubble detector [L] into
the photometer drain [P].

The programmed measuring intervals of tc2 [F] and fac [G] may
overlap each other.
The tc2 measurement has priority and therefore always takes place
in the programed measuring interval [F]. The fac measurement is
filled in the gaps [H] of the overall measurement and may be shifted
(orange arrow) in respect to programmed interval. If 2 fac measure-
ments are programmed during a overall measurement one of them
is cancelled (red arrow).

Inductive load Small inductive loads (max 0.1A) as for example the coil of a power
relay can be switched directly. To avoid noise voltage in the
AMI Transmitter it is mandatory to connect a snubber circuit in par-
allel to the load.
A snubber circuit is not necessary if an AMI relaybox is used.

Actuators Actuators, like motor valves, are using both relays: One relay con-
tact is used for opening, the other for closing the valve, i.e. with the
2 relay contacts available, only one motor valve can be controlled.
Motors with loads bigger than 0.1A must be controlled via external
power relays or an AMI relay box.

6.5. Calibration
Process Let the instrument run for 1 h.
Calibration
of tc & fc NOTICE: Perform process calibration for free chlorine or total
residual chlorine only if:
• the sample concentration is close to the desired process
value (stable value).
• you are sure that the reagents are mixed completely and
correctly.
• if the difference to the manual measurement is significant.
• Keep in mind the accuracy of your manual measurement.
Use CHEMATEST 25 (or equivalent photometer) to determine the
sample disinfectant concentration. Determine the sample disinfec-
tant value by 3 manual DPD measurements. Take the sample direct
form the constant head. Calculate the average value. Compare this
value to the value, indicated by the AMI transmitter. Keep in mind
the accuracy of your manual measurement. Only correct the instru-
ment if the difference is significant.

Program List and Explanations
As control out- Signal outputs can be used for driving control units. We distinguish
put different kinds of controls:
P-controller: The controller action is proportional to the devia-
tion from the setpoint. The controller is characterized by the
P-Band. In the steady-state, the setpoint will never be
reached. The deviation is called steady-state error.
Parameters: setpoint, P-Band
PI-controller: The combination of a P-controller with an
I-controller will minimize the steady-state error. If the reset
time is set to zero, the I-controller is switched off.
Parameters: setpoint, P-Band, reset time.
PD-controller: The combination of a P-controller with a
D-controller will minimize the response time to a fast change
of the process value. If the derivative time is set to zero, the
D-controller is switched off.
Parameters: setpoint, P-Band, derivative time.
PID-controller: The combination of a P-, an I - and a D-con-
troller allows a proper control of the process.
Parameters: setpoint, P-Band, reset time, derivative time.

Parameters: Setpoint, P-Band, Reset time, Derivative time
