SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

• Before aempng to unpack, set up, or operate this instrument, please read this enre manual.

• Make certain the unit is disconnected from the power source before aempng to service or remove any

component.

Make certain the unit is disconnected from other sources of force or pressure (for example, pneumac or hydrau-

lic), before aempng to service or remove any component.

• Failure to follow these precauons could result in personal injury and damage to the equipment.

1. THEORY OF OPERATION

The free chlorine sensor has been designed to measure the concentraon of dissolved free residual chlorine.

It does this using a Potenastac 3-electrode chronoamperometric sensor insulated from the water supply

by a hydrophilic membrane. The free chlorine diuses through the membrane and is reduced at the cathode

generang a small current that is proporonal to the concentraon of free chlorine. In potable, process, or

swimming pool water this means HOCl (hypochlorous acid) and OCl- (hypochlorite ion). The relave amount of

these two species is dependent on the pH of the soluon. At low pH’s the predominant species will be HOCl.

At higher pH's the predominant species will be OCl-. Tradional amperometric measurement systems need to

be buered to an exact pH in order that changes in the pH of the sample water do not aect the Free Chlorine

measurement. The probe supplied for Free Chlorine measurement with this instrument is not aected by changes

in pH to the same degree. This means that on many plants it will not be necessary to buer the sample water at

all. If it is necessary to buer the sample water, because the pH is both high and variable it will only be necessary

to reduce the pH to below 6.5. This is best done using the CO2 Buer accessory. The probes are available for a

variety of ranges which are specied at the me of purchase.

The sensor incorporates automac temperature compensaon (ATC).

1.0 Theory of Operation

The free chlorine sensor has been designed to measure the concentration of dissolved free residual

chlorine. It does this using a Potentiastatic 3-electrode chronoamperometric sensor insulated from the water

supply by a hydrophilic membrane. The free chlorine diffuses through the membrane and is reduced at the

cathode generating a small current that is proportional to the concentration of free chlorine. In potable,

process, or swimming pool water this means HOCl (hypochlorous acid) and OCl-(hypochlorite ion). The

relative amount of these two species is dependent on the pH of the solution. At low pH’s the predominant

species will be HOCl. At higher pH's the predominant species will be OCl-. Traditional amperometric

measurement systems need to be buffered to an exact pH in order that changes in the pH of the sample

water do not affect the Free Chlorine measurement. The probe supplied for Free Chlorine measurement

with this instrument is not affected by changes in pH to the same degree. This means that on many plants it

will not be necessary to buffer the sample water at all. If it is necessary to buffer the sample water, because

the pH is both high and variable it will only be necessary to reduce the pH to below 6.5. This is best done

using the CO2Buffer accessory. The probes are available for a variety of ranges which are specified at the

time of purchase.

The sensor incorporates automatic temperature compensation (ATC).

WARNING!WARNING!WARNING!WARNING!

PLEASE READ THE INSTRUCTIONS BELOW BEFORE DOING ANYTHING WITH THIS

PROBE. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS MAY RESULT IN DAMAGE TO

THE MEMBRANE CAP AND WARRANTIES FOR THIS DEVICE MAY BE VOIDED.

You will nd a membrane cap that is loosely screwed onto the end of your probe.

DO NOT REMOVE OR TIGHTEN THIS MEMBRANE CAP UNTIL YOU HAVE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS!

There is an elasc seal around the membrane cap which is used to seal the vent hole on the membrane cap during

normal operaon. Prior to servicing the probe the elasc seal must be slid down to expose this vent hole. Do not

loosen the membrane cap without having the vent hole exposed and unobstructed. If the vent hole is blocked

o when the membrane cap is removed, then the membrane may rupture (i.e. develop a ny tear) and the probe

may not produce accurate readings.

When the membrane cap is lled with electrolyte and fastened onto the probe (in accordance with

instrucons in the operaons manual), you will noce some electrolyte bleed out from the vent hole. This is normal.

NOTE: DO NOT INSERT THE PROBE INTO THE FLOW CELL, OR GET IT WET, WITHOUT HAVING THE

VENT HOLE COVERED WITH THE ELASTIC SEAL!

The purpose of the vent hole is to protect the membrane from being exposed to internal pressure or vacuum

when the membrane cap is screwed onto or o of the probe p.

T T-CL2

Free Chlorine Sensor

TURTLETOUGH

The chlorine sensor is a membrane covered potenostac 3-electrode system. The measuring electrode is

membrane covered and is in the electrolyte area together with the reference electrode. This electrolyte area

contains a special electrolyte and is separated by a second membrane from the sample water.

In this measuring method chlorine diuses out of the sample water, through the membranes and causes an

electrical signal at the measuring electrode. The electrical signal at the measuring electrode is proporonal to the

chlorine concentraon and is amplied by the electronics in the sensor. The measuring signal is independent from

the temperature of the measuring water due to an integrated temperature compensator.

4.0.1 Installaon

• Please refer to Site Selecon, secon 2.1

• Ensure the probe housing is mounted vercally, to ensure correct water ow over the sensor

• Ensure the installaon is stable, secure and away from vibraon

• Ensure the sample is free from bubbles and is well mixed

4.0.2 Setup

CAUTION:

When you unscrew the lled (or unlled) membrane cap, ensure

the vent band has been removed from the vent hole, to allow

air to enter, otherwise the membrane will be destroyed by the

vacuum.

• Unscrew the membrane cap from the electrode sha.

• Place the membrane cap and the G-holder onto a clean and

non-absorpve bench.

CAUTION: Never polish this area of the probe.

T T-CL2

TURTLETOUGH

• Fill the membrane cap up to the edge with the enclosed electrolyte.

• Be careful, so that there are hardly any bubbles.

• Then replace it onto the bench.

NOTE: Read the electrolyte MSDS sheet.

• Fill up the G-holder with electrolyte.

• Be careful that there are no bubbles.

• Hold the electrode sha upright and push the electrode nger carefully

into the lled G-holder.

TURTLETOUGH

• Hold the electrode sha (with the G-holder) upright and put it on the

lled membrane cap.

• Then screw the membrane cap onto the electrode sha.

• Turn it anclockwise unl the thread engages, then screw slowly the

electrode sha clockwise (by hand) onto the membrane cap.

• Excess electrolyte will escape through the vent hole in the membrane cap.

• Do not close this vent with your nger.

WARNING: Electrolyte may spurt from the vent hole.

Excess electrolyte, or electrolyte on your skin or in your eye,

should be washed o immediately with water.

The electrolyte contains potassium halide.

• Check that the membrane cap is completely screwed in up to the stop.

• There is initial resistance from the o-ring, continue past this to the

electrode body.

• Ensure the vent band is seated correctly.

• Wash o the excess electrolyte with water.

• Inial run-in is 1 hour prior to calibraon.

• Calibraon should be repeated aer 24 hours.

Roune calibraon should be weekly.

CAUTION: When you unscrew the lled

membrane cap, ensure the vent band has

been removed from the vent hole, to allow

air to enter, otherwise the membrane will be

destroyed by the vacuum.
