The
OMEGA®
CNi8DH and CNi8DV are high quality, highly accurate
single loop Autotune PID Temperature and Process Controllers for 1/8
DIN (96mm x 48mm) horizontal or vertical panel cutouts. Both devices
feature the same state of the art technology, uncompromising accuracy,
and quality backed by an extended 5-year warranty. The CNi8DH
and CNi8DV are simple to configure and use, while providing
tremendous versatility and a wealth of powerful features.
The CNi8DH and CNi8DV come standard with your choice
of two control or alarm outputs in almost any combination: solid state
relays (SSR) rated at 0.5 amp @120/240 Vac; Form "C" SPDT (Single
Pole Double Throw) relays rated at 3 amps @120/240 Vac; pulsed 10
Vdc output for use with an external SSR; or Analog Output (0-10 Vdc
or 0-20mA) selectable for control or retransmission of the process
value.
The Universal Temperature & Process
instrument (model"i") offers a selection of 10 thermocouple
types as well as 2, 3 or 4 wire RTD's, process voltage and current.
The CNi8DH and CNi8DV are ideal controllers for use
with transmitters and amplified transducers. Built in excitation is
standard (24Vdc @ 25mA). The devices handle 0-20mA Process Current
and Process Voltage in three scales: 0-100mV, 0-1V, and 0-10V.
As with all iSeries devices, the
Process Value display can be programmed to change color between Green,
Amber and Red at any set point or alarm point. The LED's displaying
the Process Value on the CNi8DH (horizontal 1/8 DIN) are the
largest digits of any 1/8 DIN controller.
The Strain/Process instrument
(model “iS”) meters and controllers measure inputs from Load Cells,
Pressure Transducers, and most any strain gauge sensor. Input ranges
include 0 to 100 mVdc, -100 mVdc to 1 Vdc, 0 to 10 Vdc in addition
to 0-20 mA. Excitation for transducers of 5 Volt and 10 Volt is standard.
The highly recommended Networking and Communications options include
direct Ethernet LAN connectivity with an Embedded Web Server, and
serial communications. The C24 serial communications option includes
both RS-232 and RS-485 which can be selected from the menu as well
as both a straightforward ASCII protocol or MODBUS. The C4EI option
includes both Ethernet and RS-485 ASCII/MODBUS on one device.
The iSeries are designed for easy
integration with popular industrial automation, data acquisition and
control programs as well as Microsoft Visual Basic and Excel. OMEGA®
provides free configuration and data acquisition software and demos
which makes it fast and easy to get up and running with many applications.
i/8
and i/32 FAMILY
The OMEGA®
iSeries
is a family of microprocessor-based instruments offered in two true
DIN sizes with NEMA-4, IP65 rated front bezels. All of the instruments
share the same set-up and configuration menu and method of operation,
a tremendous time saver for integration of a large system.
The
iSeries
displays feature unique
9-segment LED characters which greatly improves alphanumeric representations.
The 7-segment LED characters found on most instruments are adequate
for presenting numbers, but not letters. Words are easier to read
with the unique 9-segment LED characters on the iSeries,
which makes operating and programming simpler and easier.
Programmable
Color Display
The
OMEGA®
iSeries are the first complete
series of 1/8, 1/16 and 1/32 DIN process control instruments with
totally programmable color displays. The display can be programmed
to change color at any set point or alarm point.

iSeries
Change Color at any Setpoint
|
For example,
the instrument can be programmed to display the process value in
GREEN
during warm-up, switching to AMBER
to signal the normal operating range, and in RED
to signal an alarm condition. The
changes in color are quickly seen from a distance, and machine operators
can intuitively react to changing conditions. The colors can be
programmed to change back when the value drops back below the alarm
point or to "latch" on until being reset by the operator.
The instrument can also be programmed to display only one unchanging
color: GREEN,
AMBER,
or RED.
This is a useful way to let an operator identify, at a glance, process
values in three separate locations, or to display three different
measurements such as Temperature, Pressure, and Flow.
Designed
and Manufactured in the USA
The innovative OMEGA®
iSeries
of meters/controllers features an extended Five (5) YEAR warranty
at no extra charge. The iSeries
packs a wealth of power and features into the smallest of packages,
utilizing COB (chip-on-board) and SMT (surface mount technology)
assembly techniques and automation. Every iSeries
instrument is thoroughly calibrated and tested at several stages
throughout production. The iSeries
offers the highest accuracy for industrial instrumentation at 0.03%
of reading. The analog-to-digital conversion utilizes proprietary
20-bit ASIC (application specific integrated circuit) patented algorithms
and smart filtering.
Universal
Inputs
The innovative iSeries
offers the broadest selection of signal inputs available on
one industrial instrument. The choices are easily selected
from the Menu with four front panel pushbuttons, or by serial
communications. |

Process
Voltage and Current
The OMEGA® iSeries
measures process
voltage: 0-100 millivolt, 0-1 Volt, 0-10 Volt ranges, and process
current: 0-20 mA.
Analog
Output
The optional analog output can be programmed within a range of 0-10
Vdc or 0-20 mA. It is selectable as either a control output or as
a calibrated retransmission of the process value-a unique feature
among controllers.
Built-in
Excitation Standard
The iSeries comes standard with
built-in 10 Vdc @ 60 mA or 5 Vdc @ 40 mA excitation for transmitters
or other devices. Built-in excitation is not available with optional
Isolated RS-232/RS-485 Serial communications.
Control Functions
The iSeries can control simple
manual operation to ON-OFF and full Autotune PID control. (Selectable
preset tune, adaptive tune, PID, PI, PD control modes.) The dual
control outputs can be configured for a variety of independent control
and alarm applications. The ramp-to-setpoint feature allows the
user to define the rate of rise to setpoint, minimizing thermal
shock to the load during start-up. Maximum ramp time: 99.59 (HH.MM),
Soak: 00.00 to 99.59 (HH.MM), Damping: 1 to 8 in unit steps. Input
types: 0 to 20 mA, 0 to 100 mV,
0 to 1 V and 0 to 10 Vdc.
Free Software
Free software
is provided for easy set-up, configuration and data acquisition
with the OMEGA®
iSeries.
 Free
ActiveX Controls
Free ActiveX Controls are provided for the iSeries,
making it easy to integrate the iSeries
with information systems using "ActiveX Containers" such as Microsoft
Visual Basic and Microsoft Excel as well as with popular OLE and
OPC compliant data acquisition, process control, and industrial
automation software from OMEGA®,
GE Fanuc, Intellution, Rockwell Automation, Object Automation, iconics,
and Wonderware among others.
Optional
Isolated RS-232 and RS-485 Serial Communications
The iSeries
are the first intelligent industrial
instruments to offer both RS-232
and RS-485 serial communications in one instrument which can be
selected from the menu.
The iSeries features
both the iSeries serial
protocol and MODBUS serial protocol.
Factory Setup and Configuration
Make installing your iSeries
meter or controller easier by ordering it preconfigured by the factory. You specify the input types, scaling if applicable,
set points, alarm points, etc. and we will program the instruments
to your specific requirements in our calibration lab prior to shipment.
For a checklist of factory setup parameters, please consult your
OMEGA® applications engineers.
Custom
Configurations
Custom color bezels and enclosures are available for Original Equipment
Manufacturers. Enhance the appearance of your equipment design with
custom colors. Consult the OMEGA®
OEM Group. iSeries LED displays
are considerably bigger, brighter and therefore more visible than
displays for conventional instruments with the same DIN size. The
segments in the i/8 are 21 mm (0.83") high.
