Recommended Sample Sequencer Timing Settings 
 
It is recommended the following times be programmed into the Sample Sequencer when using the Hach 
Series 5000 analyzers: 
 
 
  Cycle Time.......... 59:59 minutes [1] 
 
  Delay Time.........  00:02 seconds minimum 
 
  Dwell Time..........00:30 seconds for 8.8 or 15 minute Hach measurement cycle time 
 
 
Reference the Programming section of this manual for instructions about programming the Sample 
Sequencer.  
 
Note, that if the Hach 5000 does not issue an End-of-Measurement contact closure before cycle time 
counts down to zero, the analyzer alarm light on the Sample Sequencer annunciates and the 
Sequencer turns OFF.    This is the reason for the above large cycle time recommendation.
 
 
[1]  The cycle time is programmed significantly longer than actual analyzer batch analysis duration in 
order to allow sufficient time for the 15 minute auto-calibration to occur without the Sample Sequencer 
timing out.  See the Hach manual for instructions about making the Hach perform auto-calibration on a 
regular basis. 
 
 
See batch mode timing description, "Timing Considerations for Batch Mode" in the operations section 
of this manual for additional description of timing.
