The Rosemount Model 1055 Solu Comp II Analyser offers the choice of single or dual sensor input with measurement choices of pH/ORP, resistivity/conductivity/TDS, % concentration, ratio conductivity, total and free chlorine, dissolved oxygen, dissolved ozone, flow and temperature. Dual measurement analysers offer a wide choice of measurement combinations thus reducing the cost per loop and needed panel space.
The Solu Comp II can be ordered with the ability to commission measurements in the field. This added flexibility can greatly reduce the number of spare instruments required for field servicing.
Exclusive Quick Start screens appear the first time the Solu Comp II is powered up. Screen prompts direct the user to register the number of sensors, the measurement unit(s) and the language to display. Some measurement specific prompts are also displayed. The measurement loop is ready for use in a matter of minutes.
Menu screens for calibrating and registering choices are simple and intuitive. Plain language prompts guide the user through the procedures. There are no service codes to enter before gaining access to menus.
The Solu Comp II accepts single or dual sensor input. The two 4-20 mA outputs can be independently programmed to correspond to any selected measurement or temperature. Output damping and linear or log output may also be field selected.
There are three fully programmable alarm relays that can be assigned to any selected measurement or temperature. Alarms can be configured as high, low, or USP 23 - with USP 23 alarm applying only to conductivity/resistivity. The third relay has the additional choice of fault alarm operation. When selected, a fault alarm will activate the relay when a sensor or analyser fault occurs.
The panel mount version fits standard 1/2 DIN panel cutouts, and its shallow depth is suitable for easy mounting in Hoffman-type enclosures. A panel mount gasket is included to maintain the weather rating of the panel. Surface/pipe mount enclosure includes self-tapping screws for surface mounting. A pipe mounting accessory kit is available for mounting to a 2-inch pipe.
The two-line, 16-character, backlit display can be customised to meet user requirements. All operations and descriptive messages can be field selected for English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, or Portuguese. Informative screens, which permit data not shown in the regular display, may be seen at the push of a button.
Most measurements (except ORP and flow) require temperature compensation. The Solu Comp II will automatically recognise either a Pt100 or Pt1000 RTD, normally built into the sensor. When this RTD is present, the Solu Comp II can be set up to display the temperature in °C or °F as well as set any one or more of the alarms and/or outputs to respond to this sensor input. If two measurements with temperature are present either can be chosen for each alarm and output selected.
