1. Installation
CDTX-90 Series transmitters are available in two styles: panel mount and field mount. The panel mount is supplied with the
necessary hardware to install the transmitter. This manual includes complete panel mounting instructions.
Field mounting requires a separate mounting kit. The FP90UM Universal kit enables the transmitter to be installed virtually
anywhere. Detailed instructions for field installation options are included with the FP90UM Universal kit.
1.1 Panel Installation
1. The panel mount transmitter is designed for installation using a 1/4 DIN Punch. For manual panel cutout, an adhesive
template is provided as an installation guide. Recommended clearance on all sides between instruments is 1 inch.
2. Place gasket on instrument, and install in panel.
3. Slide mounting bracket over back of instrument until quick-clips snap into latches on side of instrument.
4. To remove, secure instrument temporarily with tape from front or grip from rear of instrument. DO NOT RELEASE.
Press quick-clips outward and remove.

•
Seal cable entry points to prevent moisture damage.
Only one wire should be inserted into a terminal. Splice
double wires outside the terminal.
•
Sensor cable may not be extended over 100 ft.
Caution: Failure to fully open terminal jaws before removing wire may permanently damage instrument.
Wiring Procedure

1
1. Remove 0.5 - 0.625 in. (13-16 mm) of insulation from wire end.
2. Press the orange terminal lever downward with a small screwdriver to open terminal jaws.
3. Insert exposed (non-insulated) wire end in terminal hole until it bottoms out.
4. Release orange terminal lever to secure wire in place. Gently pull on each wire to ensure a good connection.
Wiring Removal Procedure
1. Press the orange terminal lever downward with a small screwdriver to open terminal jaws.
2. When fully open, remove wire from terminal.

1. Requirements
The CDTX-90 Transmitter is factory calibrated using simulated input signals. System calibration will reduce errors caused by
sensor wire lengths longer than the standard 15 ft. length. Wire lengths of 100 feet are acceptable; cable shield must be
maintained through cable splice. Calibration may be done by known solution value (A), or by resistance simulation (B).
A) Calibration with NIST Traceable Solutions:
When using NIST traceable standards, ensure the sensor and test solution are at the solution temperature specified on the test
solution label. Prevent contamination of the calibration solution. Thoroughly rinse the sensor in a small amount of test solution
before placing in any test solution for calibration purposes.
B) Optional Verification with Precision Resistors:
The use of precision resistors (±0.1%) connected to the rear "Temp In", "Signal IN", and "Iso Gnd" terminals in place of the
sensor, yields quick and accurate electronic instrument calibration. Calibration is completed as follows:
1) Select a standard cell constant based on desired range of operation.
Iso. Gnd
9
8
7
2) Place a 1096 Ω (25°C) resistor between "Temp IN" and "Iso. Gnd" terminals as shown.
Note: Temperature simulation errors can adversely effect calibration: 3.85 per °C.
3) Calculate the required simulation resistor that represents a value within the selected
cell range. The formula for determining the required simulation resistance is:

4) Place the calculated simulation resistance between the "Signal IN" and "Iso Gnd" terminals as shown.
5) Set temperature and set conductivity. (Optional: Reset to factory calibration by entering zero as the "Set Conductivity" value.)

several minutes for stabilization. Record displayed
Conductivity measurement is highly dependent on temperature.

temperature. Place sensor in the sample solution allowing
several minutes for stabilization. Access the VIEW menu
and record the displayed temperature and conductivity
values in the spaces provided:
Example: A sample solution has a conductivity of 205 µS
@ 48°C. After cooling the solution, the conductivity was
measured at 150 µS @ 23 °C. (C1 = 205, T1 = 48, C2 =
150, T2 = 23)
Displayed temperature:
T1 = _______ °C
The TC is calculated as follows:
Displayed conductivity:
C1 = _______ °C

(150 x (48 - 25)) - (205 x (23 - 25)) 3860
(10 MΩ to 18 MΩ). An internal pure water curve is used for these
ranges. The factory default setting of 2.00%/°C should be used.)

This feature is only applicable when PPM display units are selected. The programmable PPM Factor is adjustable from 0.01 to

and the percent of total dissolved solids (PPM).

Technical notes
If a Current Loop is locked at 3.6 mA, the problem is related to the temperature circuit:
This occurs only if the CDTX-90 detects a resistance from the temperature sensor that is less than 250Ω or greater than 2800Ω.
•
Check the sensor wiring for open/short or poor connections on white (TEMP IN) and black (ISO GND)wires.
•
•
The PT1000 temperature device in the sensor is defective.
The transmitter is defective.
Auxiliary Power (terminals 1 and 2) must ALWAYS be connected for the CDTX-90 to operate.
