YSI 5200A

Introduction

ank you for purchasing the YSI 5200A. e YSI 5200A is a fully programmable

aquatic control monitor with alarming capability. e 5200A monitors, controls,

and alarms DO (dissolved oxygen), conductivity, ORP, pH, and two Aux (auxil-

iary) inputs. In addition, the 5200A has four (4) 10 event timers and one (1) feed

timer system. Peripheral devices connected to the 5200A respond to user-dened

conguration to ensure that stable water conditions are maintained. e 5200A’s

on-site and remote access capability are suitable for a variety of applications.

5200A features:

DO, conductivity, ORP, pH, and temperature (or DO and temperature only)

monitoring with control and alarm capability from one multiparameter

probe and cable assembly

two (2) independent Aux I/O systems - - [digital or analog (0-1VDC,

0-5VDC, or 4-20mA)]

four (4) onboard relays - 240VAC@ 5AMPs; 110VAC@10AMPS -

universal AC power option (only available on AC instruments) -

DC power option with low battery alarm -

four (4) ten event daily timers -

one (1) feed timer -

two (2) 32-bit processors -

non-volatile memory of sensor, event, calibration, and conguration* data -

logs

1000 data set memory for sensor data -

eld upgradable soware and rmware -

backlit LCD with timer function - input and output data displayed con- -

tinuously

menu-driven programming with four (4) sokeys -

networking capability - connect up to (32) 5200As on one network via -

RS485 protocol

optional AquaManager® PC soware** serves as a monitor management -

tool via direct (RS232) or TCP/IP connection

email alarming via TCP/IP or AquaManager connection -

NEMA 4X, IP65 enclosure -

See Product Specications in this chapter for complete details on all 5200A fea-

tures.

*A conguration log records any changes made to the 5200A setup. For example,

changing a set point for a alarm would be recorded in the conguration log.

Introduction

**AquaManager displays real time data from monitors and provides data logging,

graphing, autopolling, mapping, and system conguration control from a PC.

AquaManager is a valuable tool for remote and local access applications.

Product Description

e 5200A system manages aquatic environments by automating control and alarm

devices to maintain stable water conditions.

A 5200A system is congurable by the user; therefore, each system setup is unique

to the application. An example of a 5200A system could include*:

5200A instrument(s) -

5200A components such as power, communication, and network devices -

input peripheral devices (i.e. oat switch, probe assembly) -

output peripheral devices (i.e. aerator) -

5200A user-dened conguration -

AquaManager PC interface (optional) -

*All of the items listed are not included with the purchase of a 5200A instrument.

Input devices send data to the 5200A. is data is processed based on the 5200A

conguration. For example, a DO sensor (input) reports a 5.4 mg/L value and

relay #3 (output) is congured to activate an aerator when value is ≤ 5.5 mg/L. e

aerator wired to relay #3 will be energized until the 5200A receives a DO sensor

reading ≥ the set point value.

Figure 1.1 shows the 5200A front panel and enclosure. e front panel includes an

LCD, which continuously displays current system conditions. Front panel keys are

used to navigate screens and program congurations. Compression ttings located

at the bottom of the enclosure provide liquid-tight connections for wiring peripheral

devices and 5200A components.
