Hydro-Control VI Touch Screen Water Control System
No items found.
Typically used within the Concrete Industry, Hydronix’s Hydro-Control VI is a water control system, Its primary function is to provide a simple method for controlling mix cycles and ensuring the correct amount of water is automatically added. This allows for shortest possible mixing time. The Hydro-Control VI is the most versatile moisture control system available with its choice of additional water modes.
The Hydro-control VI unit is designed for simplicity of use including features such as the colour touch screen display, multi-language technology and automatic recipe selection. The unit is also easily integrable into new or existing control systems. The Hydro-Control VI can be connected to a control system to easily enable the transfer of mix cycle information as it is a standalone unit.
The unit precisely and continuously monitors, displays and adjusts the moisture levels of the material throughout the mix cycle by using the reading from a Hydro-Mix or Hydro-Probe Orbiter sensor installed inside a mixer.
When using known recipes the Hydro-Control VI unit automatically calculates and adds the correct amount of water to the mix. This ensures consistency and allows moisture targets to be met, batch after batch.
The Hydro-Control VI unit has been designed as a direct replacement for customers that have a Hydro-Control V system providing an easy upgrade path with minimum disruption to production.
The Hydro-Control VI is a small unit designed for the accurate addition of water into a mixer. It works in conjunction with Hydronix Hydro-Mix and Hydro-Probe Orbiter moisture measurement sensors. The Hydro-Control VI can be used as a direct replacement for a Hydro-Control V unit.
Display Information
The intuitive 8.4″ LCD colour display touch screen provides a continuous graphical display of moisture and mix cycle status. Other screens include I/O configuration, sensor diagnostics and configuration, mix log information and many others.
System Interfacing
The Hydro-Control VI will operate as either (1) a stand alone system where the mix cycle is started and reset using the touch screen or (2) as an integral part of a fully automated system using digital I/O and / or RS232 commands for controlling the mix sequence steps, i.e. start/stop, cement in etc.
Multiple Languages
The Hydro-Control VI is easy to configure for operation in many different languages. See our languages page for details of the languages the unit is currently available in.
Operating Modes
Different operating modes can be chosen for each recipe enabling the most suitable option to be selected.
- AUTO Mode – this mode has been designed to progressively add water until the target moisture has been achieved.
- CALC Mode – this mode calculates the amount of water required to be added based on a moisture value taken from the dry materials in the mixer.
Recipes
32,000 recipes can be stored, which may be selected locally via the keypad or remotely using RS232 serial communication from a plant PC.
Mix Information
Enhanced mix information enabling detailed mix analysis is available from the mix log. It is also possible to view the moisture change over time for every mix.
Configuration
The Hydro-Control VI has been designed to work with all common forms of water addition to a mixer including weighed, metered and timed methods. A configurable mix cycle can be used to suit different aggregate / additive combinations.
Easy Data Management
Upgrade, Backup and Restore via USB memory stick.
