Basic Control Instrumentation

Hofmann Industries

Hofmann Electronics have been manufacturing process control instrumentation in Australia since 1977. This popular brand is proudly represented and supported by International Chemicals Engineering.

Whilst maintaining a high level of quality and efficiency these controllers are well priced in the marketplace.

 

Swimming Pool / Process System Controller

Dual pH and ORP Controller

DPH-4 Controller

The DPH-4 instrument was built with flexibility in mind. It can be set up as Commercial pool controller measuring PH/ORP, or it can be used as a process controller measuring PH/ORP, PH/PH or ORP/ORP.

 

Setup and calibrations are entered with easy to use encoders. Programmed parameters are not lost even if power is switched off for extended periods.

 

Precision 4-20mA output with complete isolation between each unit enables the connection to a central monitor or data

logging system. mA calibration and signal range are performed through software and kept in non-volatile memory.

 

Various timing modes and dosing relay lock-out times protect the installation from excess dosing.

Swimming Pool Controller with Timer

Dual pH and ORP Controller

Auto Mate II Controller

The Auto Mate II is a swimming pool controller. This controller combines the two common process controls required for a swimming pool pH and ORP control. It also includes a timer with 6 independent on/off cycles over 7 days for a filter pump.

This controller is ideal for Domestic swimming pools, It has been designed over 2006 and 2007 to provide excellence to the pool industry. It provides the quality features needed with out the complexity of most controllers.

 

Setup and calibrations are entered with easy to use encoders.

Programmed parameters are not lost even if power is switched off for extended periods.

 

This instrument makes it easy to keep swimming pool chemistry balanced at all times.

General Process (Cooling Tower)

Conductivity and Temperature

CTH-2 Cooling Tower Controller

The CTH-2 controller has all of the necessary functions for cooling tower control built into a single easy to use controller. It incorporates conductivity control with inhibitor dosing functionality with many modes of operation. It operates over a 0-5000 uS range with automatic temperature compensation. The conductivity is displayed on a back lit screen that provides easy to understand programming advice and operational descriptions.

The biocide functionality of this unit is the most advanced seen in the Australian market. It comprises of two independent timers, biocide one functions on a 7 day cycle. The secondary timer operates on a 28 day cycle, essentially allowing the unit to slug dose chemical once each month.

The CTH-2 is state of the art - it is the most effective, functional and economical unit available in Australia.

Digital Timers

DTH-1 Timer

The DTH-1 is an industrial quality timer unit. It allows switching of a 240VAC relay on 6 independent on/off cycles over 7 days. This allows up to six switching cycles 7 days per week!

The timer has an integral battery backup meaning that if a power supply fails the time and program will be retained.

Simulators

SMH-2 Simulator

This hand held simulator is ideal for commissioning, testing and troubleshooting pH and ORP based systems. The simulator can be connected to the instrument and an output ranged to simulate a process. The control and operation of the system can then be tested.

The simulator also can be connected to the sensor to obtain a reading independent of the controller.

pH and ORP Controllers

PMV-1 ORP Controller

The PMV-1 is an ORP controller designed for cooling tower or process application. It utilises a sensor to measure the level of oxidant in the water, when a certain level of ORP is reached the controller will trigger dosing cycles.

The dosing cycle can operate in three ways.

The first operates by cycling on / off timers, this is known as normal.

The second operates in a proportional manner, dosing towards the set point at a reduced rate. This avoids over dosing.

The third is known as adaptive proportional capacity to 'learn' from the behaviour of the system and adjust it's on and off by an algorithm programmed into the instrument.

It also features an alarm and 4-20 mA output.

DPH-64 Controller

The DPH-64 is ideal for pH or ORP control where fine adjustment or a highly variable process needs to be controlled.

This unit controls either pH or ORP and has facility to correct 'up' or 'down'. A proportional output means that the response of the attached equipment (such as metering pumps) can be paced to accurately maintain the required set point without overshooting.
