Check the following:
1. Ensure the conductivity or fluorometer sensor connections are secure in the controller.
2. Replace the sensor cable if damaged.
3. Power off and on to reset the system.
4. Verify ISP settings (username, password, access phone number).
5. Confirm the controller is registered with 3D TRASAR Web.
6. If using a GSM/GPRS connection, check signal strength and consider using a high-gain antenna if necessary.

How do I switch 4-20ma output AO5 Port right now its sending 4ma out for 100% of span and 20ma out for 0%. I Would like to switch it to 4ma 0% and 20ma 100% of span so if it looses power out bleach pump does not continuously run.

The provided context does not include specific steps for configuring the 4-20mA output on the Nalco 3D TRASAR Series. However, based on standard practices, configuring the 4-20mA output typically involves accessing the controller’s settings through its interface or software and adjusting the output scaling. You would set the lower range (0%) to output 4mA and the upper range (100%) to output 20mA. If the controller has a calibration or configuration menu, navigate to the analog output settings and enter the desired span values accordingly.

If further details are required, refer to the controller’s installation and operation manual.

    The patented 3D TRASAR on-line fluorometer consists of a “Flow Cell”, an LED light source, filters, and detectors. The filters and detectors are tuned to specific light frequencies unique to Nalco products and resultant process reactions. The LED light source is extremely bright at the appropri- ate frequencies to reliably and repeatably measure the chemical properties of the flowing water .

  • Page 240 3D TRASAR System The Nalco 3D TRASAR system is the most advanced water treatment control system on the market today. It represents a total system approach, encompassing service, innovative chemistry , ad- vanced software and sophisticated equipment, that allows you to manage stresses in cooling tower systems on a continuous, ongoing basis.
  • Page 241 As the Nalco Bio-Index increases the relative microbial control decreases. Nalco Scale Index The Nalco Scale Index (NSI) is a calculated variable that compares the current rate of polymer consumption against the learned average rate of polymer consumption. NSI has a direct correla- tion to the cooling system stress level.
  • Page 242 (user set.) Tagged Polymer A new component of TRASAR cooling water programs (ie. Nalco’s Prism polymer or High Stress Polymer (HSP.)) The concentration of the “tag” equals the concentration of available, un-reacted dispersant polymer. The 3D TRASAR algorithm compares the inert TRASAR signal to that of the tagged signal, and then makes appropriate control decisions, either to increase or decrease the treatment concentration or increase or decrease the conductivity set-point.
