A single uni- versal version of the instrument enables the user to quickly set it up to one of over 2000 different configurations from the front panel, Even with this cl Seine et flexibility, the user interface remains clear and straightforward, The technologies implemented by Eurotherm Controls offer significant benefits for the engineer and operator alike: Wide viewing angle. Low reflectance touch screen front panel provides high visibility under bright and dim lighting conditions. Long-life reliability. Surface-mount printed cir- cult boards are assembled and quality-checked in Eurotherm’s own surface-mount facility. Brownout immunity. Switchmode power supply handles line voltages between 100 and 240Vac (+10/-15%). Increased shock and vibration resistance. Quality precious metal interconnection technolo- gy eliminates hand-soldered wiring. The Model 91e is completely engineered and manufactured in the United States by Eurotherm ‘and is covered by a 2-year warranty. oe No. HA139616 Issue 5 9605 Self tuning The Model $1e incorporates a self-tuning algorithm that automatically determines values for the PID pa rameters. The algorithm is operative at setpoint or upon startup. A unique feature of the algorithm mini mizes overshoot when the tuning operation is launched from ambient The operator can simply select tuning from the front panel. The algorithm does not require that the operator load any intial PID parameter values 10 initialize the procedure. During the tuning operation, the message tunE is displayed altemately with the setpoint. When the algorithm has successfully finished tuning the loop, ‘tun is no longer displayed and the calculated param- eter values are loaded into memory. These results can be inspected by the operator. Controller configuration Configuring the controller sets up the instrument for the intended applicetion. The user can spect the alarm function, input type and range, display unis, Contfol type, ete. This information's presented in a 4. Gigit contiguraion code (the same ag in the Product Code on the back page) viewable in the upper display tor a few seconds after the instrument is powered up The operator can rmodty the setings at ths time i e- quired. Configuring the Model Ste taxes less than a minute. Mechanical features Neat, clean-cut design throughout is the hallmark of tne Model 91e. The trim, uncluttered front panel design enhances control panel installations and is easy to keep clean. Installation of the Model 91e is a simple procedure. The pane! mounting clip simply slides on from the rear. The rear terminal pressure plates rise up with the screw heads for fumble-free wire insertion in tight in stallations. Spade lugs are not required. Process related safety features Measured value alarm The Model 81e can be configured to act upon one of input alarm conditions (see Specification). The form C relay output is failsafe (relay relaxed during an alarm condition) and non-latching, A ted annunciation LED on the front panel indicates whenever the measured value is in the alarm condi tion.

Upon rein- statement of the input sensor, the controller resumes. controlling with the same output power level used at the moment of the break. This has the advantage of ‘making brief interruptions—those where the measured, value has not significantly changed—relatively bump- less, Loop break alarm ‘The Model 91e can detect if there is @ break in the control cop due to heater burn out, faulty output de- vice or loose wiring. The operator Is warned by the message LP.br. The message is latching, resetlable by touching the front panel. During a loop break alarm condition, the controller output is determined by the contro! algerithm. Built-in safety features Eurotherm has designed and manufactured the Model 91e to comply with North American and European fire and electrical safely standards. The plastic compo nents are manufactured {rom flame retardant mater als, The controller dissipates less than 5 watts, mini mizing its contribution to enclosure temperature rise Robust connection system The pressure plates on rear terminal screws protect, against wire pullout and are vibration resistant. Two ifferent diameter wires can be safely connected 10 ‘one terminal screw without danger of one falling out. Wire sizes up to #12/AWG can be accommodated. Foolproof user interface In addition to being easy to use, the user interface minimizes button pushing while providing adequate protection far contro! parameter values and configura: tion, Each button push is accompanied by appropriate visual indication. Parameter security The controller configuration and parameter values are slored in non-volatile EEPROM. This memory pro- vides data retention for the life of the controller with or without power applied.
