RMS4/RMS4-C Controllers

RMS4

Series

RMS4-C

Series

Simplistic  in  operation,  these  systems  feature  a  tri-colour 

LED that indicating system status and a 4-digit display to in-

dicate lamp life remaining. Pressing the button will change 

the display to indicate total running time. When the UV lamp 

is  on  and  within  its  operating  age,  the  LED  will  be  green. 

When the UV lamp is not on or the lamp life has expired, 

the LED will be illuminated red and an audible buzzer will be 

sounding. To remedy this condition, the UV lamp must be 

replaced with a new genuine RMS UV lamp.

 

RMS5/RMS5-C Controllers

RMS5 Series

RMS5-C  

Series

A full colour LCD screen provides the user with a detailed 

description of the system’s performance in addition to pro-

viding any applicable fault messages and system diagnostics. 

The controllers used in both the RMS5 and RMS5

 

are iden-

tical. The difference is that the RMS6series of products in-

cludes a UV intensity monitor. All RMS5 RMS5-C controllers 

include an “infinite expandability port” located on the right 

side of the controller. Simply plug in an optional UV sensor 

module into the expandability port of a RMS controller and 

the system will now monitor the UV intensity of the system!

RMS5/RMS5-C  Power-up Sequence

On start up, the controller will run through a diagnostic start-up and the sequence will be dis-

played as follows on the colour LCD:

Next, the controller checks for and initializes any optional modules that may be attached to the 

system.
