SECTION 1

Parts Inventory / Identification

The first step to setting up your system is to inventory each component. The T5552 Process
Control Learning System can include several optional components in addition to the base system.
This section covers the base system and the optional components.

PART 1.1

INVENTORY PROCEDURE

OVERVIEW
Perform the following steps to take an inventory of the T5552 Process
Control Learning System.
1. Use your schools purchase order to determine what (if any) optional components you
have in addition to the T5552 base system.
These optional components are identified on page 3 and shown throughout Section 1.2.
2. Locate in the appendix of this manual the Installer Checklist for the base system and any
optional packages you have in the appendix of this manual.
The Installer Checklist identifies the details of the components of the system and support
materials in your package.
3. Check off each item on the Installer Checklist as you identify it. The pages in Section 1.2
give you a picture of each item to assist you.
Each of the optional components has a separate detailed checklist in the appendix. Use
the detailed checklists to identify and inventory all of the components included.
NOTE
Please report any missing items or damaged components within 10 days.
Save damaged cartons if components are damaged. Amatrol will not be
responsible after this period.

T5552-F1 SMART FLOW TRANSMITTER ASSEMBLY (OPTIONAL)


The T5552-F1 Smart Flow Transmitter Assembly teaches the concepts of flow measurement
and control using differential pressure. The T5552-F1 works with the three optional differential
pressure flow sensors available for the T5552 (orifice plate, venturi tube, pitot tube). Each of the
differential pressure flow sensors creates a restriction in the process piping. When fluid flows
through the restriction, a difference in pressure results across the restriction. This differential pressure is read by the T5552-F1, which can be programmed to display the flow rate based on the
differential pressure and supply an analog signal (4-20mA) to the controller that is proportional to
the flow rate.
The components included with the T5552-F1 are listed in the table below and identified in
figure 13.

50. Press the SETUP key to exit the Select Mode and return the meter to the normal operating
mode.
Proc should appear briefly on the display followed by the process variable value. You
should notice that the value shows a level of approximately 1.6 inches, even though the
actual level is zero. This offset is caused by the location of the level sensor (below the
process tank). In order to compensate for the offset, the Process Variable Offset (OFFS)
parameter in the Setup Menu must be changed.
The offset value is used to make the process variable value read 0.0 when the level is at
the zero inch mark on the tank.
51. Press and hold the SETUP key and then press the up arrow key to enter the Select
Mode.
52. Use the up and down arrow keys to scroll to the Set Up Menu (SEtP).

3.5.2 Level Test


1. Open hand valves HV3 and HV4 to drain the process tank if there is water in it.
2. Close HV3 and HV4 when the process tank empties.
Indicator light PL3 should turn on, indicating a low level alarm.
3. Turn on selector switch SS1 to start the pump.
The process meter should display the water level in inches.
4. Observe the level reading on the process meter as the tank fills and compare it to the level
scale on the tank.
When the level reaches 2.0 inches, indicator light PL3 should go out indicating a sufficiently high level in the tank. There should be no alarms between 2 and 8 inches (the low
and high-level parameters you set on the process meter). At 8 inches, indicator light PL4
should turn on indicating a high level alarm.
5. At 10 inches, turn off selector switch SS1 to stop the pump.
6. Open hand valves HV3 and HV4 to lower the level in the tank until indicator light PL4 turns
off. Then, close the hand valves.
You should notice that PL4 does not turn off until the level reaches 7.9 inches. This is due
to the hysteresis value of 0.1.
7. Open hand valves HV3 and HV4 to lower the level in the tank until indicator light PL3 turns
on. Then, close the valves.
You should notice that PL3 turns on when the level reaches 2.1 inches. Again, this is due
to the hysteresis value of 0.1.
8. Open hand valves HV3 and HV4 and allow the tank to empty.
9. Close the hand valves when the tank is empty.
10. Turn off the main circuit breaker.
11. Disconnect all leads.
If either the circuit or the Honeywell Process Meter does not operate as described, contact

6. Fully open the manual flow control valve (HFV2) by rotating it counterclockwise as far as
possible.
7. Turn on the main circuit breaker.
Water should not flow through the system because the pump is not on.
8. Rotate selector switch SS1 to the ON (right) position to activate the pump.
Water should begin flowing into the tank. Because there are no restrictions on the flow, the
flow rate should be approximately 1.5 gpm, which is the maximum rate.
9. Verify that the reading on the rotameter is approximately equal to the reading on the flow
transmitter. Also, observe the flow of water into the tank.
10. Rotate the manual flow control valve clockwise as far as possible to close the valve.
The flow rate on the flow transmitter and the rotameter should read 0 gpm. You should also
visibly notice that water is no longer flowing into the tank. This is because the manual flow
control valve is now fully closed.
11. Rotate the manual flow control valve counterclockwise until the hand valve is approximately halfway between the fully open and fully closed positions. The flow rate on the rotameter
and the flow transmitter should read approximately 1.0 gpm. You should also notice that
although water is flowing into the tank, there is less flowing in than when the valve was fully
open.
12. Move selector switch SS1 to the OFF (up) position to turn off the pump.
13. Rotate the manual flow control valve (HFV2) counterclockwise as far as possible to fully
open the valve.
14. Turn off the main circuit breaker.
15. Disconnect all leads.

14. Place selector switch SS1 in the ON (right) position to start the pump.
You should notice that water begins to flow into the process tank. You should also notice
that the current water level (process variable or PV) is displayed above the SP value on
the display of the controller, similar to figure 52. The PV value should continue to increase
as the level in the tank increases.
NOTE
The water level (PV) is provided to the controller by a sensor located in the
bottom of the process tank.

You should notice that the PV value actually surpasses the SP value. This is referred to as
overshoot. It is not a concern at this point.
At some point, the PID controller will cause the flow into the tank to stop.
15. Place selector switch SS2 in the ON (right) position.
This opens solenoid valve SV3 and causes the water in the process tank to begin to drain
into the reservoir. When the level in the tank falls below the set point (5.00), the PID controller will react by allowing water to resume flowing into the process tank.
The controller will adjust the flow of water into the tank until the level in the tank is maintained at 5.00 inches (the flow in equals the flow out). You may notice that the PV value
oscillates above and below the SP value several times before finally settling at the set
point. This is normal when the controller is not fully tuned (i.e. programmed) for a process.
16. Place selector switch SS2 in the OFF (up) position.
This will close solenoid valve SV3.

9. Turn on selector switch SS1 to start the pump.


You should notice that water begins to flow into the tank. You should also notice that as the
tank fills, the level indicated on the controller display (PV) begins to increase. The reading
on the controller may not exactly match the sight scale on the front of the process tank
because the sensor may not be calibrated. However, as the level in the tank rises, the (PV)
reading on the controller display increases. This indicates that the sensor output increases
as the level increases.

D. Remove the paddlewheel flow sensor from the process line.


To remove the sensor, it may be necessary to pull back the process piping, as shown
in figure 58. If the process piping does not move, loosen the cap assembly screws on
the standoff, as figure 60 also shows, by turning them counterclockwise. This requires
a 5/32 Allen wrench.

E. Orient the differential pressure flow sensor in the direction of flow (right to left).
The orifice plate should indicate the flow inlet on the tab between the two flanges. The
venturi tube and pitot tube should both have an arrow indicating the direction of flow.
F. Tighten the unions to install the differential pressure flow sensor. If necessary, tighten
the cap screws to secure the process piping.
G. Connect the tube leading from the high-pressure side of the smart flow transmitter
(indicated by an H on the transmitter) to the pressure tap on the high-pressure (inlet)
side of the differential pressure flow sensor. On the orifice plate and pitot tube, the
high-pressure tap is on the right side. The venturi tube has an H and L marked next
to the high and low-pressure taps.
H. Connect the tube leading from the low-pressure side of the smart flow transmitter
(indicated by an L on the transmitter) to the pressure tap on the low-pressure (outlet)
side of the differential pressure flow sensor. On the orifice plate and pitot tube, the
low-pressure tap is on the left (downstream) side. The venturi tube has an H and L
marked next to the high and low-pressure taps.
6. Turn on the main circuit breaker.

which one is closed first.
D. Turn on selector switch SS1 to start flow through the system.
E. Fully open the high and low-pressure shut-off valves. It does not matter which one is
opened first.
F. Fully open (counterclockwise) the right bleed valve to release air from the tubing and
manifold. When there are no air bubbles in the tubing, close (clockwise) the valve. Water may drip from the bleed valve during this step. This is normal.
G. Fully open (counterclockwise) the left bleed valve to release air from the tubing and
manifold. When there are no air bubbles in the tubing, close (clockwise) the valve. Water may drip from the bleed valve during this step. This is normal.
H. Fully close (clockwise) the equalizer valve.
I. Turn off selector switch SS1 to stop flow through the system.

T5552 System Operation/Testing Procedures

8. Perform the following substeps to calibrate the differential pressure flow sensor.
NOTE
The smart flow transmitter on the T5552 is set up to accept a maximum
differential pressure of 25 in H2O. Therefore, the flow rate must be sufficiently
low to prevent exceeding this pressure when calibrating the transmitter zero
and span.
A. Locate the zero and span buttons on top of the smart flow differential pressure transmitter, as shown in figure 60. You may not be able to see them because of the position
of the transmitter, but you can feel for them.
B. If the cover plate is covering the buttons use a small screwdriver to loosen one of the
cover plate screws and rotate the plate to uncover the buttons.

C. Using a small right angle Allen wrench, press and hold the zero button, indicated by a
Z on the transmitter. After approximately 3 seconds, the display should read ZERO
PASS. This indicates that the transmitter accepts the low flow rate value (0 gm).
D. Turn on selector switch SS1 to start flow through the system.
E. Adjust the manual flow control valve until the flow rate indicated on the rotameter is 1.1
gpm.
F. Using a small right angle Allen wrench, press and hold the span button, indicated by
an S on the transmitter. After approximately 3 seconds, the display should read SPAN
PASS. This indicates that the transmitter accepts the high flow rate value (1.1 gpm).
G. Turn off selector switch SS1 to stop flow through the system.

9. Program the Honeywell PID controller to the values listed in the following table. Leave any
parameters not listed in their default settings.
Recall that pressing the Setup key allows you to enter the setup menu and scroll through
the function groups. Pressing the Func Loop1/2 key allows you to view the parameters
within a group, and pressing the and keys adjusts the parameter settings.

10. Press the Lower Display key.


11. Press the Man/Auto key to place the controller in manual mode. You should notice MAN
in the upper left portion of the controller display.
12. Turn on selector switch SS1 to start flow through the system.
13. Adjust the manual flow control valve to different flow rates between 0 and 1.1 gpm (the
transmitter display will indicate an over range error outside these limits). You should find
that the transmitter display alternates between the differential pressure (in inches of H2O)
and the percentage of the full range that is flowing through the system. You should also
notice that the controller display indicates the flow rate through the system (PV). It should
closely agree with the flow rate indicated on the rotameter.
14. Turn off selector switch SS1 to stop flow through the system.
15. If necessary, open the tank drain hand valves (HV3 and HV4) to drain the process tank.
When the tank is empty, close the tank drain hand valves.
16. Turn off the main circuit breaker.
17. Disconnect all leads.
If the circuit does not operate as described, contact Amatrol for assistance.
