The CUB4LP uses a 4 to 20 mA or a 10 to 50 mA input signal as operating power. The input signal is also used to power the backlighting on the CUB4LP40 unit. The CUB4CL uses a 4 to 20 mA or a 10 to 50 mA input signal to power the unit. An external power supply is used to power the CUB4CL backlighting to provide a brighter, more consistent display and a lower compliance voltage. The units have a 3½-digit LCD display with 0.6" (15.2 mm) high digits and a DIP switch selectable decimal point. The CUB4LP display is available in positive image reflective (dark digits, reflective background) or positive image transflective (dark digits, illuminated background) with red backlighting. The CUB4CL display is available in positive image transflective (dark digits, illuminated background) with red or yellow/green backlighting or negative image transmissive (illuminated digits, dark background) with red or yellow/ green backlighting. The ability to scale the display allows indication in any desired unit of measurement such as temperature, pressure, humidity, fluid flow, etc. The unit is calibrated at the factory with 0.0 displayed @ 4 mA input and 100.0 displayed @ 20 mA input. The units are contained in a lightweight, high impact plastic case with a clear viewing window. When properly installed, the sealed front panel meets NEMA 4X/IP65 specifications for wash-down and dusty environments. ## _**SAFETY SUMMARY**_ All safety related regulations, local codes and instructions that appear in the manual or on equipment must be observed to ensure personal safety and to prevent damage to either the instrument or equipment connected to it.

The units are intended to be mounted into a suitably rated enclosed panel. A sponge rubber gasket, mounting clip, two screws, and nut fasteners are provided to install and seal the unit in the panel cutout. ## _**Installation Environment**_ The unit should be installed in a location that does not exceed the maximum operating temperature and provides good air circulation. Placing the unit near devices that generate excessive heat should be avoided. The bezel should be cleaned only with a soft cloth and neutral soap product. Do NOT use solvents. - Continuous exposure to direct sunlight may - accelerate the aging process of the bezel. The following procedure assures proper installation: 1. Cut the panel opening to the specified dimensions. Remove burrs and clean the panel opening. 2. Slide nut fastener into slot on mounting clip and then insert mounting screw through nut on both sides of mounting clip. The tip of mounting screw should not project through hole on clip. 3. Slide the panel gasket over the rear of the unit to the back of the bezel. Install CUB4LP/CL unit through panel cutout. 4. Slide mounting clip over rear of unit until the clip is against back of panel. The mounting clip and CUB4LP/CL housing have a latching feature to hold the unit in place until tightened. - _Note: Hold the CUB4LP/CL front bezel in place when sliding the mounting clip into position._ 6. If the gasket is not adequately compressed and the mounting screws cannot be tightened any further, loosen the mounting screws and insure that the clip is latched as closely as possible to the panel. 5. Alternately tighten each mounting screw to ensure uniform gasket pressure. Visually inspect the gasket for proper seal. The gasket should be compressed to approximately 75 to 80% of its original thickness. (Recommended torque is 28 to 36 in-oz.) 7. Repeat Step #6 for tightening the mounting screws. _**2**_ ## _**EMC INSTALLATION GUIDELINES**_ Although Red Lion Controls Products are designed with a high degree of immunity to Electromagnetic Interference (EMI), proper installation and wiring methods must be followed to ensure compatibility in each application. The type of the electrical noise, source or coupling method into a unit may be different for various installations. Cable length, routing, and shield termination are very important and can mean the difference between a successful or troublesome installation. Listed are some EMI guidelines for a successful installation in an industrial environment. 1. A unit should be mounted in a metal enclosure, which is properly connected to protective earth. 2. Use shielded cables for all Signal and Control inputs. The shield connection should be made as short as possible. The connection point for the shield depends somewhat upon the application. Listed below are the recommended methods of connecting the shield, in order of their effectiveness. - a. Connect the shield to earth ground (protective earth) at one end where the unit is mounted. - b. Connect the shield to earth ground at both ends of the cable, usually when the noise source frequency is over 1 MHz. 3. Never run Signal or Control cables in the same conduit or raceway with AC power lines, conductors, feeding motors, solenoids, SCR controls, and heaters, etc. The cables should be run through metal conduit that is properly grounded. This is especially useful in applications where cable runs are long and portable two-way radios are used in close proximity or if the installation is near a commercial radio transmitter. Also, Signal or Control cables within an enclosure should be routed as far away as possible from contactors, control relays, transformers, and other noisy components. 4. Long cable runs are more susceptible to EMI pickup than short cable runs. 5. In extremely high EMI environments, the use of external EMI suppression devices such as Ferrite Suppression Cores for signal and control cables is effective. The following EMI suppression devices (or equivalent) are recommended: - Fair-Rite part number 0443167251 (RLC part number FCOR0000) Line Filters for input power cables: - Schaffner # FN2010-1/07 (Red Lion Controls # LFIL0000) 6. To protect relay contacts that control inductive loads and to minimize radiated and conducted noise (EMI), some type of contact protection network is normally installed across the load, the contacts or both. The most effective location is across the load. - a. Using a snubber, which is a resistor-capacitor (RC) network or metal oxide varistor (MOV) across an AC inductive load is very effective at reducing EMI and increasing relay contact life. - b. If a DC inductive load (such as a DC relay coil) is controlled by a transistor switch, care must be taken not to exceed the breakdown voltage of the transistor when the load is switched. One of the most effective ways is to place a diode across the inductive load. Most RLC products with solid state outputs have internal zener diode protection. However external diode protection at the load is always a good design practice to limit EMI. Although the use of a snubber or varistor could be used. RLC part numbers: Snubber: SNUB0000 - Varistor: ILS11500 or ILS23000 7. Care should be taken when connecting input and output devices to the instrument. When a separate input and output common is provided, they should not be mixed. Therefore a sensor common should NOT be connected to an output common. This would cause EMI on the sensitive input common, which could affect the instrument’s operation. Visit RLC’s web site at http://www.redlion.net/Support/InstallationConsiderations. html for more information on EMI guidelines, Safety and CE issues as they relate to Red Lion Controls products. ## _**WIRING CONNECTIONS**_ All conductors should meet voltage and current ratings for each terminal. Also cabling should conform to appropriate standards of good installation, local codes and regulations. It is recommended that power supplied to the unit (AC or DC) be protected by a fuse or circuit breaker. The electrical connections are made via screw-clamp terminals located on the back of the unit. When wiring the unit, use the label to identify the wire position with the proper function. Strip the wire, leaving approximately ¼" of bare wire (stranded wires should be tinned with solder). Insert the wire into the screwclamp terminal and tighten the screw until the wire is clamped tightly. Each terminal can accept up to two #14 AWG wires. **==> picture [276 x 166] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**<br> OFFSET SPAN<br>4 SIG +<br>(SENSOR)<br>1 2 3 4<br>CUB4LP/CL OFFSET SPAN<br>3 4 2 VDC +<br>SIG.- SIG.+ (CL ONLY)<br>ON<br>1 COM 2<br>(CL) 1 2 3 4 V+<br>(CL)<br>RED LION CONTROLS<br>YORK, PA.

Attach the signal wires to terminals 3 (SIG-) and 4 (SIG+) observing the correct polarity. The (SIG-) signal input circuit is not reverse polarity protected. ## **Backlight Power (CUB4CL only)** Attach a 9 to 28 VDC supply to terminals 1 (COM) and 2 (V+) to power the backlight. Terminals 3 (SIG-) and 1 (COM) are AC coupled with a capacitor. This limits the isolation between these terminals to 50 VDC maximum. ## _**SPAN ADJUSTMENTS**_ Span is defined as the numerical range that the display traverses, disregarding the decimal point, when the input signal is varied from minimum to maximum (4 to 20 mA or 10 to 50 mA). For example; if a unit is to display 250 @ 4 mA and 1000 @ 20 mA, the span is 750 (the difference between 250 and 1000). Had the minimum display been -250, the span would be 1250 (1000 - (-250) = 1250). The CUB4LP/CL can be set to operate over a wide span range by adjusting the Coarse and Fine Span adjustment pots. The Coarse Span pot is used to get the display to within a couple of counts of the desired reading, and the Fine Span pot is used to adjust for the exact reading. ## _**OFFSET ADJUSTMENTS**_ The minimum currents are not zero based with 4 to 20 mA and 10 to 50 mA signals. To obtain a zero minimum display reading, the display must be offset. The display on the CUB4LP/CL can be offset by adjusting the Coarse and Fine Offset pots. WARNING - EXPLOSION HAZARD - DO NOT DISCONNECT EQUIPMENT UNLESS POWER HAS BEEN SWITCHED OFF OR THE AREA IS KNOWN TO BE NON-HAZARDOUS. **==> picture [43 x 37] intentionally omitted <==** _THIS EQUIPMENT IS SUITABLE FOR USE IN: Class I, Division 2, Groups A, B, C, and D Class II, Division 2, Groups F and G Class III, Division 2 or Non Hazardous locations._ _**3**_ ## _**DECIMAL POINT POSITION SELECTION**_ The decimal point position is DIP switch selectable for one of three locations. The CUB4LP/CL can be set up to read in 10ths, 100ths, or 1000ths. If all the DIP switches are set to the “OFF” position, no decimal point will appear on the display. The DIP switches are located at the rear of the unit. ## _**CALIBRATING THE DISPLAY**_ Calibrating the CUB4LP/CL requires either an accurate adjustable constant current supply or the CUB4LP/CL can be installed and scaled with the process sensor connected to the CUB4LP/CL. To calibrate the unit, proceed as follows. 1. Set DIP switching for the desired current range. 2. Select the desired decimal point position. 3. Apply the minimum input signal to the CUB4LP/CL and adjust the COARSE OFFSET to display the approximate desired minimum value. 4. Apply the maximum input signal to the CUB4LP/CL and adjust the COARSE SPAN to display the approximate desired maximum value. 5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 until the minimum and maximum values are within the desired values. 6. Apply the minimum input signal to the CUB4LP/CL and adjust the FINE OFFSET to display the exact desired minimum value. 7. Apply the maximum input signal to the CUB4LP/CL and adjust the FINE SPAN to display the exact desired maximum value. 8. Apply the minimum input signal and verify that the display indicates correctly. 9. Apply the maximum input signal and verify that the display indicates correctly. 10. Repeat Steps 6 through 9 until display reads exact. _Note: The CUB4LP/CL display is factory calibrated to indicate 0.0 to 100.0 with an input of 4 to 20 mA at approximately 25°C._ ## _**APPLICATION EXAMPLE**_ Operation of a refinery process required a local display of the position of a remote pipeline valve. The display would indicate 0 (zero) when the valve was fully closed with an input signal of 4 mA. When the valve was fully open the display would indicate 100 with an input signal of 20 mA. Both the CUB4LP and the CUB4CL meet the necessary requirements. **==> picture [259 x 353] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**<br> + +<br>CONTROLDEVICE - - VALVE<br>SIG +<br>COMM<br>(SIG -)<br>CUB4LP<br>BLOCK DIAGRAM<br>COM 1<br>(CL ONLY) BACKLIGHT<br>+VDC 2 FINE -V<br>(CL ONLY) 0.1 µf OFFSET<br>50 VDC<br>SIG- 3 COARSE<br>S1 OFFSET<br>12.7Ω COARSE<br>Connection for 8.25Ω SPAN<br>CUB4LP40<br>GND<br>+V<br>FINE<br>SPAN<br>S4 S3 S2<br>SIG+ 4<br>PROCESS CIRCUITRY<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br> ## _**ORDERING INFORMATION**_ ## _**TROUBLESHOOTING**_ For further technical assistance, contact technical support at the appropriate company numbers listed. |**MODEL NO.**|**DESCRIPTION**|**PART NUMBERS**| |---|---|---| |CUB4LP|Reflective LCD Loop Powered Process Indicator|CUB4LP00| ||Red Backlit LCD Loop Powered Process Indicator<br>Positive Image Transflective LCD|*CUB4LP40| |CUB4CL|Yel/Grn Backlit LCD External Powered Process<br>Indicator Negative Image Transmissive LCD|CUB4CL10| ||Red Backlit LCD External Powered Process<br>Indicator Negative Image Transmissive LCD|CUB4CL20| ||Yel/Grn Backlit LCD External Powered Process<br>Indicator Positive Image Transflective LCD|CUB4CL30| ||Red Backlit LCD External Powered Process<br>Indicator Positive Image Transflective LCD|CUB4CL40| |MLPS|Micro Line/Sensor Power Supply<br>(Non-hazardous use only)|MLPS1000| |*Backlight intensity will vary depending on signal level.||| Red Lion Controls Red Lion Controls Headquarters Europe 20 Willow Springs Circle Softwareweg 9 York PA 17406 NL - 3821 BN Amersfoort Tel +1 (717) 767-6511 Tel +31 (0) 334 723 225 Fax +1 (717) 764-0839 Fax +31 (0) 334 893 793 Red Lion Controls India 201-B, 2nd Floor, Park Centra Opp 32 Mile Stone, Sector-30 Gurgaon-122002 Haryana, India Tel +91 984 487 0503 Red Lion Controls China Unit 302, XinAn Plaza Building 13, No.99 Tianzhou Road ShangHai, P.R.
