Protective grounding wire  
Power Supply Wiring  
• To prevent an electric shock, ensure the main power supply is turned off  
before wiring.  
WARNING  
• To prevent fire, use 600 V PVC insulated wire (AWG18) for power and  
ground wiring (cross sectional area of 0.83 mm2 or thicker, anti-galvanic  
corrosion finish, insulation thickness should be more than 0.8 mm, insulation  
resistance should be more than 50 M /Km at 20˚C, approved EN60 320  
(VDE0625) ), or equivalent cables.  
• Connect the protective grounding wire to the earth through grounding  
resistance less than 100 before turning on the power.  
• Use crimp-on lugs (for 4 mm screws) with insulation sleeves.  
• To prevent an electric shock, cover the power terminals certainly with the  
transparent cover.  
• Make sure to apply a power switch near by with the following characteristic:  
rated power current > 1A  
rated rush current > 60A  
fuse (s) of 2A to 15A is (are) necessary.  
NOTE • Do not apply a power supply in the range from 132 V to 180 V AC. Doing so  
might affect the measuring accuracy.  
• To prevent an emission of electromagnetic disturbances, separate the power  
supply wires from the other wires at least 0.1 m. Over 0.5 m is  
recommended.

2.2.3 Input Signal Wiring  
!
(1) Turn off the recorder power switch.  
(2) Remove the transparent cover for the input signal terminals.  
(3) Connect the input signal wires to the terminals.  
(4) Attach the cover on the terminals, and secure the screws.  
It is recommended to use the crimp-on lugs (for 4 mm screws) with insulation sleeves  
for lead wire ends, but they are not required for thermocouples (TC).  
Crimp-On Lugs  
Suggestions to minimize noise pickup:  
Separate the measuring-signal wires from power lines and grounding lines.  
It is desirable that the measuring object is not a noise source; if not, insulate it from  
the measuring-signal wires and ground the object.  
It is recommended to use shielded wires to minimize noise pickup from an  
electrostatic induction source. The shields are connected to the recorders grounding  
terminal, if necessary. In that case, avoid two-point grounding.  
To minimize the noize from an electrostatic induction noise, twist the measuring  
wires (a pair of wires) in short and equal intervals.  
The grounding line must have low resistance.  
In case of using a thermocouple (TC), the recorder is equipped with a reference junction  
compensator, so the ambient temperature around the recorders terminal board should  
be kept as stable as possible.  
Cover the input terminals with the transparent cover.  
Do not use a large-diameter wire (cross sectional area of more than 0.5 mm2) because  
it has a large radiation rate.  
Keep the ambient temperature as stable as possible; start/stop of a nearby fan affects  
the temperature.  
If input signal wires are connected to two or more receivers with parallel connection,  
measured values sometimes affect each other. The following notes should be observed  
for parallel connection:  
Ground each receiver at the same point.  
Do not turn on/off the power of a receiver while other receivers are in measuring  
operation.  
A resistance temperature detector (RTD) cannot be used essentially in parallel  
connection.  
To prevent an electric shock, ensure the main power switch is turned off when  
wiring.  
WARNING  
Do not apply inputs exceeding the rated range as follows to prevent the  
recorder from damage:  
CAUTION  
• Maximum input voltage  
±10 V DC for TC, and for the voltage range of 2 V DC or less  
±30 V DC for the voltage range of 6 to 20 V DC  
• Maximum common mode voltage  
250 V AC rms (50/60 Hz)  
• The installation of each input is Category II.  
NOTE • To prevent an emission of electromagnetic disturbances, separate the input  
wires from the other wires at least 0.1 m. Over 0.5 m is recommended.

4.8.5 Calibration  
4 - 13  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
Calibration is a comparing operation between standard inputs and measured values.  
It is recommended to carry out a calibration once a year to assure the measuring  
accuracy.  
Required instruments for calibration  
The instruments for calibration should have the required resolution. If necessary, ask  
the sales office from whom you purchased the recorder about those instruments.  
Recommended instruments  
OMEGA model # CL511 calibrator  
Calibration procedure  
(1) Connect the instruments to the recorder; connecting the terminals is shown below.  
Give enough warm-up time to the instruments (more than 30 minutes for the  
recorder).  
(2) Check that the ambient temperature and humidity are within the standard operating  
conditions.  
Standard operating conditions  
Ambient temperature : 23±2˚C  
Humidity  
: 55±10% RH  
Power supply  
Power frequency  
Warm-up time  
: 90 to 132 V AC, or 180 to 250 V AC  
: 50/60 Hz±0.1%  
: 30 minutes or more  
Mechanical vibration : Within the range not affecting recorder operation  
However, when the calibration is conducted under normal operating conditions (see subsection 4.8.6),  
check the accuracy influenced by the conditions.  
Chart paper yields thermal expansion or shrinkage, sometimes resulting in differences from the  
calibrated values.  
Examples of expansion are shown below assuming the reference temperature 20˚C and humidity 65% RH:  
Expansion at 85% RH ..... 0.4% or less  
Expansion at 35% RH ..... 0.45% or less  
(3) Input the standard signals equivalent to 0, 50, and 100% of the setting range of the  
recorder, then check the difference error between input signals and measured  
values.  
If the error is not within the specified accuracy, contact OMEGA Engineering.  
NOTE A reference input for a thermocouple (TC) signal needs temperature  
compensation; the temperature at the recorder input terminal should be  
measured to make voltage compensation (adding) due to the reference junction  
temperature compensation.

Reference Junction Compensation for Thermocouple Input  
A DC voltage generated by a thermocouple differs from a value calculated from the table of thermo-  
electromotive force (EMF) because the table is based on the 0˚C reference temperature but the temperature at  
the recorder input terminal is generally equal to the room temperature.  
The recorder measures the temperature at the input terminal for compensation; when the input terminals are  
shorted (equivalent to 0˚C of the thermocouple in the EMF table), the recorder indicates the temperature at the  
input terminal.  
For calibrating a recorder, an input voltage after the compensation (after subtraction of the compensating  
voltage) should be applied to the recorder; an example is shown in (thTRCIII reference junction compensator  
is used).

EXPLANATION OF SQUARE ROOT:  
This recorder uses the following square rooting-method:  
Let us define the items as follows:  
Vmin = minimum value of recording span (SPAN L)  
Vmax= maximum value of recording span (SPAN R)  
Fmin = minimum value of scale (SQRT SCL L)  
Fmax = maximum value of scale (SQRT SCL R)  
Vx = input voltage  
Fx = scaling value  
The relationship between Vx (input voltage) and Fx (scaling value) is as shown in the  
graph below (the graph configuration is approximate).

Recorder as Viewed from the Side  
This figure shows that, in any pen recorder (in order to prevent collision between pens)  
the pens must be offset by a distance P. Therefore, points recorded at the same time are  
separated on the time axis.  
In the case of Pen Offset Compensation, a delay memory is used to store measurement  
data, equivalent to the time offset P of the pens (other than the reference pen).  
The pens will start to record these stored data when the chart is fed by the amount of P  
(time offset).  
NOTE Immediately after the recording has been started, only the reference pen  
operates normally. The other pens might not seem to operate correctly, but this  
is due to the time offset.  
When you stop the recording, the chart will stop and therefore data stored in the  
delay memory will not be recorded anymore. Therefore, these data will be lost.  
Note that an asterisk will be printed in the periodic printout when POC is ON.
