Summary

Product identification

Testomat 2000® CAL is an online analysis unit for water hardness, carbonate hardness, p-value, or minus m-value.

Intended use

The instrument is designed for the water treatment sector (osmosis plants, water softening, drinking water). The feed water must be clear, colorless, and free of undissolved particles. The instrument automatically determines and monitors residual total hardness (water hardness), residual carbonate hardness, minus m-values, and p-values in water. Measurement parameters and range are determined by indicator selection and user programming.

Performance specifications

  • Menu-driven operation and programming via a plain text display.
  • Measures residual hardness, total hardness, carbonate hardness, minus m-value, p-value via indicator selection.
  • Freely selectable hardness units: °dH, °f, ppm CaCO₃, mmol/l.
  • High measuring accuracy from a precise piston-dosing pump.
  • Analysis initiation:
    • Automatic interval operation (interval adjustable from 0 to 99 minutes).
    • External control.
    • Dynamic start (exhaustion dependent).
    • Volume controlled (water meter).
  • Two independent limit values with hysteresis (1, 2, or 3 bad analyses) and adjustable switch functions.
  • Monitoring of two measuring points (change-over via external solenoid valves).
  • Internal error documentation.
  • Programmable service address.
  • Programmable maintenance interval for maintenance requests.
  • 500 ml indicator storage bottle for extended operating periods.
  • Optional interfaces: 0/4-20 mA or 0/2-10 V, or RS 232 for a log printer.

Installation

  • Install the unit vertically, without mechanical stress, and at a vibration-free site, protected from dripping or splash water, dust, and aggressive substances.
  • Ensure sufficient space on the left side for the door to open.
  • The water pressure must be between 0.3 bar and 8 bar. Avoid strong pressure fluctuations.
  • The measuring water temperature must be between 10 °C and 40 °C. For temperatures above 40 °C, a KCN type cooler should be installed.
  • Water inlet connection: Standard is a plug connector for plastic hoses 6/4 x 1. Install the branch line connection directly after the water treatment plant, laid vertically upwards. Install a manually operated shut-off valve. Use an opaque plastic hose (max. length 5 m). Flush the inlet. For operation in the 0.3 to 1 bar range, remove the valve body from the controller and filter housing.
  • Water outlet connection: Connect to an opaque outlet hose (internal diameter 14 mm). Lay the hose without backwater or syphoning effect to the drain.
  • Power supply: Only connect to the specified mains voltage. Use tested cables with sufficient cross-sections. Protect against interference voltages using a mains filter. Separate connecting cables from power cables. Connect to the protective earth conductor for 230/115 VAC.

Commissioning

  • Use only Heyl Testomat 2000® indicators for trouble-free operation.
  • Indicator bottle insertion: Assemble the screw cap with hole and insert. Screw the hose connector of the intake hose hand-tight into the insert. Place the insert with the hose into the indicator bottle. Screw the cap hand-tight onto the bottle.
  • Indicator extraction: Switch the instrument on and press "STANDBY". The pump automatically extracts indicator. To fill the intake and transport hoses, press the "manual" key until they are filled up to the measuring chamber.
  • Opening water inlet: Open the lower housing cover. Slowly open the shut-off valve. Ensure water conducting parts are not leaky. The measuring chamber should fill in 2 to 6 seconds.

Functions of the operating and display elements

The display shows operating statuses and measured values. Input keys are located below the display.

  • Mains switch: To switch the instrument on or off.
  • Instrument fuse: Located inside, protects against overloads and short circuits.

Display functions:

  • Limit value status displays (red/green): Indicate if limit values have been reached or fallen below.
  • Text display (4 lines): Shows current analysis results, statuses, and programming data. Line 2 and 3 display measured values for measuring point 1 (M1) and 2 (M2), indicating "<" for below range and ">" for above range. Line 4 displays set limit values LV1 and LV2.
  • Alarm (red): Indicates malfunctioning/error or warning messages.
  • Maintenance message (yellow): Indicates current maintenance requests.
  • Status display of active instrument components (line): Six displays indicate the current instrument and analysis status.
