General Panel Mounted Converter

for pH and Redox (ORP)

Specifications Model PH150

Housed in a compact panel mounted case with IP65 front and

featuring an intuitive interface with touch screen, the EXAxt PH150
is ideally suited to the creation of control systems where panel size
is at a premium.
With the correct sensor configuration, the simultaneous
measurement and control of both pH and ORP values is possible.
This makes the PH150 ideally suited for use in the field of effluent
treatment, where it can replace two conventional systems.
Derived from the famous EXA series, the PH150 has the self-
diagnostic features that have made the EXA a market leader.
Included in the 96mm x 96mm square housing are two isolated mA
outputs with linearisation, HART communication and PID control
functions. Two SPDT relay contact outputs provide alarm and
control functions.
The unique touch screen interface provides simple, intuitive
configuration and access to the display features. A large clear
graphical display with backlight makes it very easy to read primary
and secondary values. Trend charts, diagnostics, logbook and
configuration data are all readily available. A flip-up transparent
dust cover is fitted to keep the display clean.

In this type of control, the on/off ratio is controlled to vary the
