Hach SC200 Universal Controller with Ultrasonic Flow Sensor
Applications: Wastewater, Collection Systems, Industrial Water
The SC200 Universal Controller with Ultrasonic Sensor
The SC200 Universal Controller with Ultrasonic Sensor is designed to provide highly accurate flow and depth measurements for open channel flow monitoring applications. The system offers an economical choice for flow monitoring with reliable data management via SD card transfer.
The flow system is suitable for various applications, including NPDES permitting, storm water monitoring, inlet flow, final effluent, and activated sludge. It replaces the Hach GL153 analog controller with advanced features for enhanced operator usability.
The SC200 controller can be configured for 1 or 2 Digital Sensor Inputs, or 1 or 2 Analog Sensor Inputs, or a combination of both. Communication options include MODBUS RTU and Profibus DPV1.
Maximum Versatility
- Standardized controller eliminates the need for multiple dedicated controllers.
- Multi-channel capability operates 1 or 2 sensors, reducing inventory costs and allowing for future expansion.
- True dual sensor capability provides 4-20 mA outputs for transmitting primary and secondary measurement values.
- The controller can be panel, surface, or pole mounted using included hardware.
Display
- Large display with scrolling menus for easy setup.
- Transreflective display remains readable in sunlight.
Data Management
- SD Card simplifies data download and transfer.
- Firmware updates can be performed via SD card or a special RS232 cable.
Ultrasonic Flow Sensor
- Select from a library of flumes and weirs for flow sensor setup, or input a flow curve for non-standard structures.
- The non-contact flow sensor requires no routine maintenance and uses pulse echo technology.
Sensor Inputs
- Analog sensor modules can be added in the field.
- Digital sensor ports are factory installed.
- The controller automatically scans and detects newly added sensors.
- Compatible with GLI and Hach digital sensors.
Analog Inputs
- Enables non-SC analyzer monitoring.
- Accepts mA signals from other analyzers for local display.
- Consolidates analog mA signals into a digital output.
4-20 mA Outputs
- Provides a total of six (6) 4-20 mA outputs (2 standard/4 optional), enabling up to 3 mA outputs per sensor input.
Digital Communication
- Supports MODBUS 232/485 and Profibus DP V1.0.
Ease of Use and Confidence in Results
- New display and guided calibration procedures reduce operator error.
- Password protection prevents tampering and unauthorized programming changes.
- A visual warning system provides critical alerts.
