Analog Signal Units

The Analog signal units allow for either a current or voltage analog output from the sensor.

The different models are:

Depth RatingFunction
DTU-ANon-SubmersibleDTU and Analog out functions - Current or Voltage out
ACU300300mAnalog out functions - Current out
ACU12501250mAnalog out functions - Current out
AVU300300mAnalog out functions - Voltage out
AVU12501250mAnalog out functions - Voltage out
  • The units can be terminated via SubConn or pigtail
  • The units require power (6 - 40 V) and connection to the analog input of the telemetry unit
  • The units have RS232 comms which can be used to validate and upgrade the firmware

Range

SpecRangeNotes
pH2 - 10 pH
Current Output4 - 20 mA20 mA = no available value
4 - 19 mA = proportional to pH value
Voltage Output0 - 5 V> 4.9 V = no available value
0 - 4.9 V = proportional to pH value

⚠️ Note: The analog units require a 12 V / 250 mA power supply

DTU-A

DTU-A
Picture coming soon!

The DTU-A communicates to the sensor through the RS485 wires.

⚠️ Tip: We recommend a splice kit when connecting the DTU-A to a pigtailed sensor.

  1. Make sure the sensor is in autonomous mode
  2. Connect the DTU-A to the sensor and telemetry unit using the wiring instructions below
  3. Turn on the power and the sensor will beep
  4. Wait for first measurement output (until the sensor provides a measurement there is no change on the output)

AVU
  1. Make sure the sensor is in autonomous mode
  2. If you have a SubConn terminated unit, connect the sensor to the SubConn end
    If you have a pigtailed terminated unit, connect the sensor using these wiring instructions
caution

Ensure you have the unit connected the correct way round, as per the picture above

  1. Connect the unit to the telemetry unit using the wiring instructions below
  2. Turn on the power and the sensor will beep
  3. Wait for first measurement output (until the sensor provides a measurement there is no change on the output)
