DESCRIPTION
The Apollo Intelligent Thermocouple Meter
(IMT)
accepts inputs from
standard thermocouples and precisely linearizes them. A full 6-digit display
accommodates a wide range of temperature inputs and holds large totalization
values. State of the art digital circuitry virtually eliminates errors due to drift.
The unit automatically compensates for cold junction, NBS linearity and the
meter’s zero and span. A full complement of option packages are available to
fulfill many process applications.
The indicator features a readout choice of either Fahrenheit or Celsius with
0.1 or 1 degree of resolution. English Style display prompts and front panel
buttons aid the operator through set-up and operation. With a few simple steps
the unit can be engaged as a millivolt meter by programming
“mV”
for
thermocouple type
(enter 8 in “Pro 1”).
This mode is useful in monitoring and
displaying the actual voltage produced at the thermocouple probe junction as an
aid in troubleshooting for a faulty thermocouple probe. A front panel lock-out
menu protects set-up data and operation modes from unauthorized modification.
Programmable digital filtering enhances the stability of the reading.
Programmable remote input “E1-CON” pin can be utilized to control a variety
of functions, such as totalizing, alarm control, peak/valley readings, display
hold, or temperature offset operations. All set-up data is stored in E
2
PROM,
which will hold data for a minimum of 10 years without power.
An optional integrator/totalizer can be used to totalize or integrate
temperatures up to a maximum display value of 999,999. It features
independent scaling, decimal point, and a low temperature cut-out to suit a wide
variety of temperature integration/totalization applications. Programmable
remote input “E2-CON” pin is included with this option and can be utilized to
control a variety of functions, such as integrating/totalizing, alarm control,
peak/valley readings, display hold or temperature offset operations,
simultaneously with “E1-CON” pin. Peak/valley
(max/min)
reading memory
and programmable temperature offset functions are included with this option
and they are easily recalled and controlled by either the front panel or a remote
input. All readings are retained at power-down.
Optional dual relays with parallel solid state outputs are fully programmable
to operate in a wide variety of modes to suit many control or alarm applications.
Optional 20 mA loop, bidirectional serial communications provides
computer and printer interfacing to extend the capabilities of the indicator. More
than one unit can be connected in the loop with other RLC products which have
serial communications capabilities.
An optional 4 to 20 mA or 0 to 10 VDC re-transmitted analog output can be
scaled by the user to interface with a host of recorders, indicators and
controllers. The indicator has several built-in diagnostic functions to alert
operators of any malfunction. Extensive testing of noise interference
mechanisms and full burn-in makes the indicator extremely reliable in industrial
environments. The die-cast front bezel meets NEMA 4/IP65 requirements for
washdown applications.

INTEGRATOR (TOTALIZER) / PEAK/VALLEY /
TEMPERATURE OFFSET AND SLOPE OPTION
The major feature of this option is its integrator/totalizer
(accumulator).The
integrator/totalizer simply totals
(adds)
input readings with a programmable
time base and scaling coefficient. The integrator/totalizer may be reset via a
remote input, by the front panel or through the serial communications loop.
Alarms may be programmed to trigger from integrator/totalizer values or input
values. A programmable low temperature/signal level disable feature completes
the integrator/totalizer features. At loss of power to the indicator, the contents of
the integrator are saved.
Another feature of this option is peak and valley detection. The indicator will
record the lowest reading
(valley)
and the highest reading
(peak),
automatically,
for later recall. This information is valuable to monitor the limits of the process
over any length of time
(shifts, days, etc)
since these values are stored at power-
down. A remote input can be programmed to reset or engage the unit into a peak
reading indicator/totalizer. Additionally, the peak and valley can be viewed and
reset from the front panel, if so programmed, and viewed and reset through the
serial communication option.
The programmable temperature offset feature allows the operator to shift the
displayed temperature reading. The operator may utilize this feature, for
example, if switching thermocouple probes, to compensate for differences in
thermocouple probe accuracy from one manufacturer to another. The displayed
temperature reading can be offset either positive or negative to the actual
measured temperature. Programming a positive number for the offset value
2
increases the display value. Programming a negative number for the offset value
decreases the display value. For example, programming +10 for the offset value
will increase the displayed value by 10 throughout the entire range, or
programming -10 for the offset value will decrease the display value by 10
throughout the entire range.
ISOLATED ALARM OPTION
The alarm option consists of an additional printed circuit board with 9
connections. Six of these terminals are for the two Form-C relays and the other
three are for the two open collector transistors, which act in parallel with the
relays. The two alarms are completely independent with programmable values,
hysteresis
(deadband),
high or low acting, auto or manual reset, triggering from
input or total and they can be programmed to track each other, if desirable. If the
alarms are programmed to latch
(manual reset),
then they can be reset either by
the front panel or a remote input. The alarms can be programmed to trigger from
either the integrator/ totalizer or the input display, to actuate external alarms,
control valves, etc.
Alarm #1 can be programmed to track Alarm #2 by enabling alarm tracking.
This is useful in alarm set-ups where a pre-warning control activates before a
second alarm shuts off the process when tracking is programmed. Changing the
shut-off trip value
(alarm #2)
automatically changes the pre-warn value
(alarm
#1)
an equal amount. Alarm and hysteresis values can be modified through the
optional serial communications to provide automatic control.
many data-polling or automatic operation applications. The indicator responds
to a host of commands, including change alarm value, reset totalizer and
transmit input signal. Two loops are required for all hook-ups; a transmit
(out-
going data)
loop and a receive
(in-coming data)
loop. Since the indicator
monitors the receive loop for a busy signal
(current interrupted)
while
transmitting, the receive loop must be connected even if the indicator is
transmitting only, such as to a printer. A built-in 20 mA source is provided in the
transmit loop. Additionally, multiple units and other Red Lion Controls
instruments can be serially addressed, with a maximum address capability of 99
units.
(Note: There are hardware limitations which restrict this to a lower
number of units per serial loop.)
ISOLATED RE-TRANSMITTED ANALOG OUTPUT
OPTION
4 to 20 mA
The re-transmitted analog output option transmits a digitally programmable 4
to 20 mA current to drive chart recorders, remote indicators and controllers. The
compliance is 10 V. Non-standard current ranges within the 4 to 20 mA range
can be supported by calculating the slope and intercept of the display/output and
calculating the required display values at 4 and 20 mA.
0 to 10 VDC
The re-transmitted analog output option transmits a digitally programmable 0
to 10 VDC output signal to drive chart recorders, remote indicators and
controllers. Non-standard voltage ranges within the 0 to 10 VDC range can be
supported by calculating the slope and intercept of the display/output and
calculating the required display values to 0 and 10 VDC.

TEMPERATURE MONITOR/LIMIT CONTROLLER
EXAMPLE
Several IMT’s are used as temperature indicator/limit controllers for motor
bearings at a manufacturing plant. The bearings must be kept lubricated to
prevent heat and friction, maximizing the life of the bearings. The normal
operating temperature of the bearings depends upon the size of the motor, motor
speed, load, etc. Normally, the temperature of the bearings will rise from
approximately room temperature at start-up and then level off. A sudden
increase in the temperature would signal that the bearing has begun to reach the
end of its life.
The IMT’s are selected with integrator/totalizer/peak/valley/ temperature
offset/slope/E2-CON and dual alarm/relay options. By utilizing the integrator/
totalizer option, the bearing temperatures can be integrated
(added)
on a per-
hour basis
(“degree-hours”).
When the integrator/totalizer reaches a preset
value
(i.e. 64,000),
alarm #1 relay activates a warning signal to alert personnel
that maintenance
(lubrication, etc.)
is due. After maintenance, the contents of
the integrator/totalizer is reset to 0 and integration/totalization for the next
period begins. The low temperature cut-out is programmed to disable
integration/totalization at start-up temperatures
(90
o
F)
or when the motor is not
running. Alarm #2 is set to latch and is used to shut down the motor and alert
operators in the event of a sudden increase in the temperature of the bearings
(160
o
F).
Daily high
(peak)
temperatures can be viewed by displaying the
contents of the peak buffer.

HEAT TREATING EXAMPLE
An IMT is employed to monitor the temperature of an oven during a bolt
heat treating process. The IMT is chosen with serial, alarm and
integrator/totalizer/peak/valley/temperature offset/slope/ E2-CON options,
to replace two outdated instruments, an analog temperature indicator and a
timer. After the bolts are cut and threaded, they must be hardened by slowly
heating to 870
o
C. When the bolts reach 870
o
C, they must remain at or
slightly above this temperature for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes at 870
o
C
the bolts are removed from the heat to be cooled. The heat treating oven is
then brought back down to the start temperature
(approx. 120
o
C).
An existing controller is used to slowly heat the bolts to 870 degrees. The
IMT monitors and displays this temperature. The integrator/totalizer option
of the IMT is used to replace the timer. When the temperature reaches 870
o
,
integration/totalization begins
(Lo-cut = 870 C).
With the temperature at a
steady 870
o
, after 10 minutes the contents of the integrator/totalizer will
equal 145. At this time alarm #1 activates a control system which removes
the bolts from the heat and takes them to be cooled down. The
integrator/totalizer is reset to 0, and the heat treating oven is brought back
down to starting temperature. Alarm #2 is programmed to be low acting
(temp below 120
o
)
