ECD Chloride Water Quality Sensor
The
measurement of water quality is critical in many different industries including
food and beverage, water and wastewater, oil and gas and chemical along with
many others. It can be important to understand and record the levels of various
parameters and also control the level of chemicals in a solution. Bell Flow
Systems were approached to provide a solution to monitor the level of chloride
in a stream and to transmit this data to control dosing to maintain a set
concentration. Using equipment manufactured by Electro Chemical Devices we were
able to provide a chloride sensor married with a digital transmitter offering
an accurate, reliable and user friendly package.
The T80
transmitter has been designed as a universal transmitter to accept various different
sensors for pH, ORP, dissolved oxygen, specific ion, conductivity or
resistivity measurement and has two channels to simultaneously measure two
different parameters. The transmitter allowed the user to read the measured
values, which could be viewed graphically, as a percentage of the 4-20mA
scaling or as the measured value and also to use a 4-20mA output to control the
dosing and maintain an accurate chloride concentration. Relay outputs are also
used to trigger alarms when specified values were reached. The transmitter also
offers Modbus, and HART communications making this a versatile unit for many
industrial applications. The simple menu structure and easy to read LCD display
makes this very user friendly and an attractive choice for clients.
S80 sensors
are being produced in many configurations from various housing materials, cable
lengths and process connections. They are also available as insertion or immersion
styles for use in pipes or in in the end of a stand pipe for immersion into a
tank or pond. Using a stainless steel body with hygienic tri-clamp flange
connections allow this system to be fitted into the pipework - maintaining the
sanitary conditions of the application. Further benefits of the S80 sensor include the detachable cable for easy fitting and maintenance and also the replaceable
electrode cartridge to simply replace when the cartridge is at the end of its
life or for a change of application, therefore reducing cost of ownership.
