MI instrucon manual

1 Descripon 1

1 Descripon

The Mulchannel user interface MI is an industrial computer designed to add funcon-

ality to the PR-43 refractometers. The MI sends and receives data and it can also be

used to control the process.

The Mulchannel user interface MI connects with up to 4 Vaisala K-PATENTS® PR-43

refractometers. With module cards, it can also be used to add external inputs and

outputs (e.g. relays and mA outputs) to your refractometer system.

The MI is operated by the touch-screen display. The stainless steel enclosure gives a

good environmental protecon and allows also outdoor installaons, especially with

the included rain cover. The outer door is easy to open by one hand and the handle

can be modied for padlock to prevent unauthorized access. The module cards can be

reached by opening the inner door. The MI has IP66 rang when the outer door is open

if the inner door (display panel) is xed. With outer door closed the rang is IP67.

2 Mounng

The Mulchannel user interface MI can be mounted on a wall with wall mounng or

on a table with a table stand. The mounng locaon should be easily accessible. If

mounted outdoors, the MI has to be protected from rain and direct sunlight.

Important: Do not drill mounng holes in the enclosure as that will aect the protec-

on class of the enclosure and damage the electronics.

The MI is shipped with a rain cover. Vaisala recommends that it is installed even indoors

to protect the top of the door from dust and dirt.

Unscrew one of the cable glands and push the power cable through. Connect the power

cable to the power terminals at lower right of the motherboard (see below). Screw on

the cable gland. Close the inner door and turn power on.

3.1.1 Power terminals for AC power

The primary AC power is connected to a separate terminal strip 1/2/3 in the lower right-

hand corner of the motherboard. The three terminals are marked 1.L, 2.N and 3

(protecve earth). The power terminal 3/ is directly connected to the exposed metal

parts of the MI. Wiring to the terminals shall be 1.5mm

minimum. The protecve fuse

in the building system shall comply with the local requirements.

3.1.2 Power terminals for DC power

The DC power is connected to a terminal stripe in the lower right-hand corner of the

motherboard. The three terminals are marked 1+, 2- and 3 (protecve earth). The

power terminal is directly connected to the exposed metal parts of the MI. The 24V

DC power to this terminal stripe shall be supplied from a secondary circuit which is

double or reinforced insulated from the mains supply within the limits for a limited-

energy circuit (maximum 200 VA/U) according to the IEC 61010-1.

Important: The MI does not have a built-in power switch. The system is always pow-

ered when connected to a power source. Vaisala recommends mounng an external

mains switch to control the MI’s power supply (Figure 3.5). The external power switch

should be easy to access. It is also recommended to use a 10A/230V circuit breaker for

power supply.

3.2 Refractometer cable connecons

The refractometers are connected to the MI with a M12 male-female 8 pins A-coded

cable PR-8430, maximum length 90 m. The refractometer connectors are located un-

derneath the MI enclosure as a group of four. Refractometer connecons can be made

while the MI is powered. A refractometer can be connected to any of the four connec-

tors.

3.3 Ethernet cable connecon

The lemost connector underneath the MI is for ethernet output. It is for a M12 male

4-pins D-coded cable. The cable can be connected while the MI is powered.

If you wish to connect the MI with e.g. a laptop, you can purchase Interconnecng

cable PR-8330 with a M12-4 pin connector in one end and a RJ-45 connector in the

other end.

3.4 Module cards

For the installaon of the module cards, see Chapter 6 “Module cards”.
