Getting Started

The Chromalox 2104 1/4 DIN temperature and process controller is a low-cost, high-performance, single-loop controller that can be used for temperature, flow, pressure and level control applications. With universal sensor inputs and front panel operator setup, one 2104 controller can be easily field configured for a wide variety of applications, and simply reconfigured as application needs change. This makes it an exceptional choice for OEMs with multiple control needs, manufacturing facilities, testing facilities and testing applications.

Installation

Inspection and

Unpacking

On receipt of your 2104 controller, immediately make note of any visible damage to the shipment packaging and record this damage on the shipping documents.

Unpack the controller and carefully inspect it for obvious damage due to shipment. If any damage has occurred, YOU must file a claim with the transporter, as they will not accept a claim from the shipper.

If the controller will not be immediately installed and placed into operation, it should be stored in a cool, dry environment in its original protective packaging until time for installation and operation. Temperature extremes and excessive moisture can damage the instrument.

Switch

Settings

Figure 2.1

Sensor Selection

Dip Switch

Settings

The 2104 has up to seven (7) hardware switches located on the bottom of the controller. The switches are accessible through cutouts in the controller housing and do not require that you remove the controller from its housing to access the switches.

Figure 2.1 identifies the switches. Instructions for switch settings are given in the corresponding sections of the manual.

Selection

Switches

Sensor selection requires that you:

1. Set the sensor switches for the correct sensor type.

2. Program the input sensor type in sensor selection setup on the INPT Page (see page 36).

It is much easier to set the sensor input switches before you mount and wire the controller.

To set the sensor switches:

1. Locate the sensor switches—#1, #2 and #3— on the bottom of the controller, as shown in

Figure 2.1 on the previous page.

2. Place the switches in the appropriate Up or

Down position for your input type:

Mounting

Figure 2.2, on the following page, shows the mounting dimensions for the controller:

1. Cut out the square “panel cutout” mounting hole and install the unit as shown in

Figure 2.3.

2. Place the controller through the square panel cutout and replace the mounting clip.

3. Tighten the mounting clip screw (do not over- tighten) to secure the controller firmly against the mounting surface.

Wiring

Instructions

Good Wiring Practices

1. When planning the system wiring, separate wiring into functionally similar bundles - i.e., power leads, sensor leads, output signal lines, etc. If the power leads and sensor leads must cross, they should cross at a 90

° angle to each other (perpendicular).

2. Locate all sources of electrical noise in your system, and separate these sources from the control systems— motors, contacts, solenoids, etc. Electrical noise can affect the function of any control system. When driving a contactor coil or other inductive load, an appropriately rated AC snubber circuit is recommended (Chromalox Part. No. 0149-01305), as described on page 11, “Relay Output Wiring.”

3. For sensor wiring practices, see Sensor Wiring

Notes, next page.

4. Additional information on good wiring practices is available from IEEE, 345 East 47th St., NY, NY

10017. Request IEEE Standard No. 518-1982.

Make all electrical wiring connections to the back of the controller before power is applied to the unit.

All wiring must comply with local codes, regulations and ordinances. This instrument is intended for panel mounting and the terminals must be enclosed within a panel. Use National Electric Code (NEC) Class 1 wiring for all terminals except the sensor terminals.

Check the wiring decal on the side of the unit to verify the model number. The wiring decal shows the wiring terminations. All wires will be connected to the terminals on the back of the instrument case. Specific wiring instructions for different input and output types are given in this section.

Sensor Input Wiring

Sensor Input Wiring Notes:

• Sensor leads (thermocouple and RTD) should not be run together in the same conduit as power wiring.

• Twisted pair, shielded wire is recommended for sensor connections.

• False process readings can occur if the sensor wire is exposed to electrical noise.

• Ungrounded thermocouples are recommended.

• If thermocouple extension wire is required, it must be the same type as the thermocouple (i.e., if a

Type K thermocouple is used, then Type K extension wire must be used).

• Thermocouple wires should connect directly to the controller terminals. Do not use copper crimp terminals or solder terminals to make connections.

• If shielded thermocouple wire is used, the shield must be grounded at one end only, preferably at the shield ground terminal on the controller, as shown in Figure 2.5.

• Three wire RTDs are recommended for greatest accuracy.

• Standard shielded copper wire is recommended for

RTD extensions.

3-Wire RTD Inputs

When making the 3-wire RTD input connection, it is important to make the resistance of all three extension leadwires equal by using the same gauge and same length of wire for optimum leadwire compensation.

Chromalox recommends 3-wire RTDs for greatest accuracy, and standard shielded copper wire for RTD extensions. Make 3-wire RTD connections to terminals 7, 8 and 9 as shown in Figure 2.6 on the following page.

2-Wire RTD Inputs

If using a 2-wire RTD input, use heavier gauge leadwires to reduce leadwire resistance. Any leadwire resistance adds directly to sensor resistance, thus adding error to the process temperature measurement. It is also necessary to jumper terminals 8 and 9 on the instrument to complete a

2-wire hookup.

The 2104 Controller is capable of single output and heat/cool PID control. The selection for single or heat/cool control is made in the Controller Type menu (CTRL PAGE, CONT) with PID settings also in the Control Page. Additionally, the 2104 features ramp to setpoint and ramp/soak capabilities.

Control Algorithms

PID is the standard control algorithm of the 2104.

ON/OFF control action is selected by setting the proportional band (CTRL

PAGE, PB1 or PB2) to zero.

Two sets of PID and ON/OFF control parameters are located in the Control Page for increased flexibility.

Additionally, a Fuzzy Logic algorithm can be used to help prevent overshoot at power-up or during upsets.

Standard Single Output Control

In standard single output control (CTRL

PAGE,

CONT = HEAT or COOL) the Sensor Input is used to measure the process variable and Output #1 is used to control the process. PID1 parameters (CTRL

PAGE, DBL, ARL, RATL) are used to determine the response of the control loop.

Heat/Cool Control

In heat/cool control (CTRL

PAGE, CONT

=

HTCL)

Outputs #1 and #2 are used to control the process.

Output #1 acts as the Heat output and Output #2 acts as the Cool output. PID1 parameters (CTRL

PAGE, PBL, ARL, RATL) are used to determine the response of the Heat output and PID2 parameters

(CTRL PAGE, PB2, AR2, RAT2) are used for the cool output.

One way to automatically set the PID2 parameters is via the cooling medium parameters. These are setup at menu COOL on the CTRL

PAGE.

Cooling Medium parameters automatically establish the optimum PID2 cooling parameters, based on the cooling medium used/selected. If air, oil or water cooling medium is selected, and PID1 parameters change (during self-tune OR Manually), PID2 parameters will also be adjusted. If “PID2” is selected

(PAGE CTRL, COOL = PID2, no cooling medium specified), the PID2 parameters will change only if changed in Menus PB2, AR2 and RAT2.

Self-Tuning

The 2104 tuning algorithm establishes PID constants (PBL, ARL, RATL) that will bring the process to setpoint as quickly as possible with little overshoot. Tuning can be performed at powerup

(CTRL

PAGE, TUNE = PRUP) or can be initiated immediately (CTRL

PAGE, TUNE = BEGN). When tuning, the 2104 will flash “TUNE” in the lower display.

If the process variable is not at least 50

°

F (28

°

C) away from setpoint, the 2104 will turn off the control output until the process temperature is 50

°

F from setpoint. If the 50

°

F temperature difference is not reached within 30 minutes, “TERR” will be displayed, indicating that tuning was not successful

(tuning error). Press RESET to clear “TERR”. After successfully tuning, tuning is turned OFF in the tuning menu (TUNE).

Heat/Cool Self-Tuning

For heat/cool control applications, when the cooling medium is specified (PAGE CTRL, COOL =

AIR, H2O, OIL), both heat (PID1) and cool (PID2) parameters are computed during a heat tune

(tuning is invoked while the process temperature is at least 50

°

F below setpoint). If no cooling medium is specified (PAGE CTRL, COOL = PID2) the PID2 parameters (PB2, AR2, RAT2) will not change during a self-tune.

A cool tune (tuning is invoked while the process temperature is at least 50

°

F above setpoint) will compute PID parameters for cooling only. One way to initiate a cool tune is to first heat tune, then lower the setpoint by 50

°

F (28

°

C) and initiate selftuning for cooling (CTRL PAGE, TUNE = BEGN). A cool tune will change PID2 settings if Heat/Cool control is selected for the control type (CTRL PAGE,

CONT HTCL).

Fuzzy Logic Overshoot Protection

Fuzzy Logic Overshoot Protection (CTRL

PAGE ,

FL) works to minimize the overshoot that accompanies standard PID control. The 2104 actively learns the characteristics of the load and adjusts the PID control algorithm to reduce overshoot. Overshoot Protection, when combined with PID constants established by the 2104 tuning algorithm, produces a response that brings the process to setpoint with a minimum of overshoot.

Fuzzy Logic overshoot protection is not possible with

ON/OFF type control. It is recommended that Fuzzy

Logic is always enabled.

Ramp to Setpoint

(CTRL PAGE, RRAT = 1 to 9999 degrees/hour or OFF)

The Ramp to Setpoint feature allows the control setpoint to be ramped to the final value at powerup or during operation when the setpoint is adjusted.

At powerup, the setpoint is ramped from the current measured process temperature to the control setpoint. During operation, the setpoint is ramped from the current value to the new value. When enabled, Ramp to Setpoint will begin in any of the following situations:

• Powerup

• Change of setpoint from front panel

• Change of setpoint from digital communications

• Digital Input or Aux Key used to change between the local and auxiliary setpoints

• Digital Input or Aux Key used to change between the local and remote setpoints

• Remote Setpoint is active and the remote device changes the setpoint faster than the programmed ramp rate

Manual Operation

Manual operation allows the controller output command to be controlled from the front panel

Keyboard. On initial powerup, the controller enters

Automatic control mode (closed loop). When Manual

Mode is entered, the output command appears in the lower display. The output command can be adjusted using the up and down arrow keys. The manual mode can be entered by using the Aux Key or the Digital

Input (CTRL PAGE, ENTI or AUTO). Manual Operation is not possible when ramp/soak is enabled. In the heat/cool control mode, only the currently active control output can be adjusted.

The transfer between Automatic and Manual operation is bumpless and balanceless. When switching from automatic to manual control, the controller assumes the last output command from automatic mode. When returning to automatic control, the output is forced to be the last manual mode output command.

If automatic reset is enabled (CTRL PAGE,

AR = non-zero value) the integral value slowly changes the output value until it reaches the correct automatic

(PID) output value. If automatic reset is not enabled, the output is ramped from the last manual output command to the current automatic output command at a rate determined by the disintergration time menu

(CTRL PAGE

, AUTO).

Ramp/Soak Profile

The 2104 controller features a Ramp/Soak Program.

The program consists of 16 intervals plus a standby interval. The time span and setpoint for each interval are individually adjustable. These intervals make up a

Ramp/Soak Profile. An example of a typical 8-interval

Ramp/Soak program is shown below.

+ Dev. Alarm

Low Alarm

Time

Event

Outputs

Event Outputs may be configured to turn ON or OFF during each of the intervals. Event outputs are merely timed outputs that are either ON or OFF during an entire interval.

Examples of event outputs might be annunciation of a soak interval, an indicator light or addition of a product to the process. Outputs #3, #4 and #5 (if your controller was purchased with these options) may be setup as event outputs. For Outputs #3, #4 or #5 to be used as Events, the output must be set up as an Event on its setup page (i.e. OUT3). For example, for Output

#3 to turn on during interval 2, set menu 2E (interval

2 event) to E3 (Output #3 on). See page 43 for details.

Control Loop Protection Alarm (CLP)

Control Loop Protection (CLP) monitors the controller’s process variable input and load output to detect and respond to conditions indicating a failure in the control loop (Sensor, Controller Output, Load or

Process flow). CLP is selected by setting the LOOP Timer on the CTRL PAGE menu to a value from 0.1 to 999.0

minutes (0.0 disables CLP).

Loop Timer

Time (in minutes)

The timer setting should be chosen according to the response time of the system. The minimum time seting should be 0.25% of span divided by the normal load response rate to full ON or full OFF condition

(whichever is slower).

Minimum Timer Setting = Span x .0025

Slowest Response Rate (Heat or Cool)

Response Rate = Process Response (in degrees/minute) when

100% ON or 100% OFF

Example: For a controller with type J T/C (span -100

°

F to 1400

°

F), 0.25% of span is 3.75

°

F. If the heating response is 2

°

F/min., and the cooling response is 1

°

F/ min., the minimum Loop Timer setting would be 3.8

minutes. To prevent false alarms, it is recommended that you start by doubling the setting to 7.6 minutes.

The CLP Alarm sequence begins when the control output reaches 0.0% or 100.0% (process variable outside of the proportional band). The controller then measures the time for the process variable to respond (increase or decrease the process variable) and compares the measured time to the Loop Timer value.

Chromalox 2104 Technical Manual 53

Control Loop Protection Alarm (continued)

If the control loop does not respond with a change in the process variable of 0.25% of span (3.75

°

F for a J thermocouple) within the programmed loop time, a Loop Error will result and the control output will turn off. The error will be indicated by the lower display flashing LOOP and Loop Alarm Output

(Output #3, #4, or #5 as selected on the menu) will be activated. The Loop Alarm is cleared by pressing

RESET.

To Scale the Output Signal

When the Process Variable or Active Setpoint is selected for transmission, the output signal is scaled using the Analog Output scaling MENUs. Go to the

SCAL PAGE, MENUs AOTL (analog output low) and

AOTH (analog output high). Enter the output signal range to be sent to your recorder or computer (i.e.,

100 = 4mA and 500

Chromalox 2104 Technical Manual

Section 9

Digital Communications

The Digital Communications option is provided on the following controllers:

Model Communications

2104 - ***2* RS232

2104 - ***5* RS232

2104 - ***1* RS485/422

2104 - ***4* RS485/422

The Digital Communications option gives the 2104 the ability to interface with computers using either

Chromalox’s Computer Interface mode or ASCII Line mode. These modes implement communications that can address up to 255 Chromalox controllers on an

RS422A/RS485 multidrop line. The protocols for these two modes are described in the Digital

Communications User’s Manual (P/N 0037-75129) that is supplied with controllers containing the Digital

Communication option.

ChromaSoft™

If a prepackaged software program is preferred for multidrop digital communication with up to 255

Chromalox controllers, Chromalox offers ChromaSoft remote operator interface software. ChromaSoft is

DOS-based and communicates with the controllers via a serial interface port. Instructions for using

ChromaSoft are given in the User’s Manual provided with the software.

Hardware Setup

RS232 can be used to connect a computer or modem to a single 2104 controller. RS232 lines can be run over distances up to 50 feet.

RS422 and RS485 provide multidrop network communications where up to 255 controllers can communicate with a single computer at a distance of up to 4000 feet.

Calibration

In this section you will find calibration instructions for calibrating:

• Sensor Input

• Remote Setpoint Input

• Analog Output

Instructions are also given for:

• Factory Calibration Recovery

• Calibration Offset

When is

Calibration

Required?

The 2104 controller is factory calibrated before shipment to you, therefore, it is not necessary to calibrate the controller when you receive and install it. Periodic calibration checks or adjustments of the unit should not be required under normal operating conditions. Chromalox recommends that you recalibrate the controller in the following instances:

• all instruments in your facility are periodically calibrated to one device (metrology)

Chromalox 2104 Technical Manual 75

Important

Calibration

Notes

1. Disconnect load power when calibrating or

disable the control output using the

AUX pushbutton.

2. RTD inputs should be calibrated using copper

(Cu) wire, and thermocouple inputs should be calibrated using thermocouple extension wire of the same type as the thermocouple you are calibrating.

3. Substitute a precision sensor simulator

(thermocouple simulator or resistance decade box) for the sensor inputs. The controller should be allowed to warm-up with the appropriate sensor simulator connected for at least one hour prior to calibration.

4. To access the calibration, you will need to be at

LEVEL D security. Enter Security Code “736” at menu LOCH on the CTRL PAGE.

Calibration

The Analog Output signal is calibrated using an appropriate current or voltage meter. Calibration is performed in the two analog output calibration menus (Ao O and Ao S) on the Input Page.

1. Connect the meter to the analog process output terminals. To calibrate the analog output, the output must be forced to the low end of span. If the setpoint is selected for transmission

(CTRL PAGE, AOUT = ASP) this can be done by adjusting the setpoint to the low end of span

(i.e. J T/C = -100

°

F).

2. Go to menu AO O. Adjust the Analog Output

(using ▲ and ▼) until the meter reads 4mA or
