Features

• control of several ballast parameters:
  • lamp current
  • preheat enable/disable
  • preheat current
  • preheat time
• rack mounting versions:
  • all connections (mains, lamp and control voltage, error control) routed through a MOLEX JUNIOR FIT connector

• two operating modes selectable by DIP-switch: alternatively local control or remote control

Operating Mode 1: LOCAL CONTROL = use the DIP-switch to control the ballast parameters

local control features:

• automatic switch-on when connected to mains
• operation current adjustable in 8 steps (50...120%)
• preheat on/off
• preheat time (5s, 7s, 12s, 20s)
• preheat current adjustable in 8 steps (50...120%)
  

Operating Mode 2: REMOTE CONTROL = control of ballast parameters via RS485

the onboard DIP-switch is used for the assignment of an unique address
for the ballasts identification on the serial bus

control features - via RS485:

• switch on/off
• status readout
• operation current
• preheat on/off
• preheat time
• preheat current

Using RS485 for Ballast Control

remote access to electronic ballasts:

• control of several ballast parameters
• remote control via RS485 serial bus
• connect up to 256 devices to be controlled via the RS485 serial bus
• address assignment for ballast identification by DIP-switch
• available addresses: 0...511

software for ballast control:

• all control functions are accessible with PLC or standard PC
• interface protocol is revealed
• open interface protocol allows integration in complex PLC- or PC-controlled uv-systems
• open interface protocol allows third party´s adaptions
• the adaption of the ballast control to the customers special control unit has to be performed by customer
• control software ’’UV-Rack-Controller’’ available for ballast control by standard PC with OS WINDOWS

hardware for ballast control:

• PLC - programmable logic controller
  (direct connection via RS485 serial bus, no additional I/O-cards for ballast status indication necessary)
• standard PC or Apple Computer (RS485/RS232-converter required)

available soon:

D-SiC031 - mounting thread: G1/4"
D-SiC033 - mounting thread: G3/4"
D-SiC037 - to be used with measurement window MF001

Features

• adjusted sensors for the complete output range of low and medium pressure lamps
• the sensors are ready to be used in every low or medium pressure lamp system
• no separate sensor adjustment for different uv-intensities and output values
• no separate sensor adjustment for different uv-lamp/sensor arrangements

  absolute value detection:
  sensor output= [uv-value] W/m²

• to monitor or to handle the measured uv-value there has to be no conversion from any current (4...20mA) or voltage (0...2/5/10V) output
  (i.e. no additional PLC-I/O card for each sensor)
• the measured uv-intensity is provided directly as plain text with numerical value and scale unit [W/m²]

  the digital sensors are to be connected via RS485 serial bus

• each sensor has a unique ID for identification on the serial bus
• the digital sensors are to be connected
  • to a PLC
  • directly to stand-alone ZED uv monitors with RS485
  • with RS485/RS232 converter to standard PC or Apple MacIntosh

Advantages of using the RS485 bus:

• connection of up to 256 devices (e.g. 255 digital sensors and one PLC as bus master)
• each sensor identifies itself on the bus
• management of all connected sensors
• measurement value request

System integration:

• control functions are accessible with PLC or standard PC
• interface protocol is revealed for easy adaption to customer specific requirements
• open interface protocol allows integration in complex PLC- or PC-controlled uv-systems
• open interface protocol allows third party´s adaptions
• the adaption of the sensors measurement value request to the customers special control unit has to be performed by customer
• standard WINDOWS software ’’terminal.exe’’ for sensor monitoring by standard PC

measurement value request

by using standard WINDOWS-Software ’’terminal.exe’’
