Commissioning of the Sensors6.1 Setting of the Flow Meter Switching Point Reduce the flow rate for the test - the alarm device must engage. Check the screw fitting for leakages.For in-line probe DLG III and DGMa:Objective: Flow rate reduction is to switch – “Pause” at controller given closed input Set the flow rate at the ball valve. Setting value: 40 l/h Test value: 30 to 60 l/h (read at the upper edge of the float) Loosen the flow rate sensor. Move the flow rate sensor in the rail from the top to the bottom until the controller goes to“Pause”. Move the flow rate sensor to the top until “Pause” at the controller is just cancelled. Secure the flow rate sensor. Reduce the flow rate for the test - the controller must go to “Pause”.6.2 Running-In PeriodA running-in period is to be observed for all amperometric sensors. Depending on the sensor, thismay vary between 1 hour and 24 hours. The respective sensor, electrically connected, must bepositioned in the sample water to be measured. This sample water must already contain themeasured variable in the quality and quantity sufficient for the process.Running-in of the sensors is described in the respective chapter for the measured variable.<strong>Pr</strong>o<strong>Minent</strong> ® Page 23

After any operationwithout chlorine, running-in periods are to be reckoned with. If required, switch onmetering unit time-delayed! If no chlorine is metered for a longer period of time, thesensor must be disconnected from the mains and stored in a dry condition.Running-In PeriodTo acquire a stable display value the sensor should be run in for a predetermined period.When first commissioned:1 - 3 hWhen re-commissioned:0.5 - 2 hWhen membrane/electrolyte replaced: approx. 0.5 h8.1.2.4 DULCOTEST ® CLE Chlorine Sensor for Free Chlorine, CalibrationIMPORTANT• A slope test must be carried out after replacing the membrane cap or electrolyte.• Slope tests must be repeated at regular intervals to ensure that the sensor is workingcorrectly! When used in the treatment of swimming pool or drinking water it is generallysufficient to re-calibrate the sensor every 3-4 weeks.• Avoid incorrect dosing due to air bubbles in the sample water! Air bubbles clinging tothe sensor membrane can result in a measured variable that is too low and thus lead toincorrect dosage.• Observe applicable national directives for calibration intervals!<strong>Pr</strong>econditions • Constant flow through in-line probe housing• Constant sample water temperature• Similar sample water and sensor temperatures (wait approx. 15 min.)• The sensor has been run in• Constant pH value<strong>Pr</strong>o<strong>Minent</strong> ® Page 29

Ozone8.2.2 DULCOTEST ® OZE Ozone Sensor, Commissioning8.2.2.1 DULCOTEST ® OZE Ozone Sensor for Ozone, AssemblyPouring electrolyteAssemblyCAUTION• When handling ozone-containing water and solutions wear appropriate safety gogglesand protective clothing!• In case of eye contact with the electrolyte, rinse immediately with a lot of clean waterfor at least 10 min.! In case of eye irritation, contact an eye specialist!• Do not swallow the electrolyte! Drink a lot of water. Trigger vomiting. Seek medicaladvice in case of indisposition!• <strong>Pr</strong>otect yourself and your clothing against contact with the electrolyte (acid!) by suitableprotective equipment!• The skin might be chemically burnt or the clothing might be damaged! Rinse immediatelywith a lot of cold water.IMPORTANT• Do not touch, damage or bring into contact with greasy substances the membrane atthe bottom of the membrane cap and the electrodes at the bottom of the electrodeshaft! The sensor will then no longer function accurately. Replace the membrane cap bya new one or return the sensor for cleaning of the electrodes.• The electrolyte should not be kept in excess of 2 years! (For date of expiry, see label) Remove the red cap from the spout and cut the spout at the marked position to open thespout channel. Remove the protective membrane cover and unscrew the membrane cap from the electrodeshaft. Rinse the membrane cap and the electrode with some of the electrolyte. Fill the membrane cap up to the brim with the electrolyte. Slightly tap the membrane cap onto an even surface to remove any air bubbles.Assembling themembrane cap Place the electrode shaft vertically on the filled membrane cap and turn until the thread islocked. Turn the electrode shaft such that the vent hole is positioned to the top. Slowly screw in the membrane cap fingertight by hand up to the stop. The excessive electrolyteflows out through the vent hole when screwing together the parts. Rinse the leaked electrolyte from the sensor and your fingers under running water. No air should be trapped in the membrane cap and the electrolyte. If air is trapped, repeat theabove described steps.Assembling sensorIMPORTANT• Depressurise the in-line probe before installing the sensor!• Insert or remove the sensor only slowly into or from the in-line probe! Otherwise themembrane may be damaged!• The membrane may not come into contact with the flow plug of the in-line probe!• Ensure that the tensioning ring of the sensor is positioned within the in-line probe afterinstallation! Otherwise, the sensor might be ejected from the in-line probe due to thewater pressure.• After commissioning, the sensor must always be kept wet – e.g. the in-line probe maynever run dry! Install the sensor as described in the operating instructions of the in-line probe.<strong>Pr</strong>o<strong>Minent</strong> ® Page 37

Ozone8.2.2.4 DULCOTEST ® OZE Ozone Sensor, CalibrationAfter expiry of the running-in period, the sensor can be calibrated.IMPORTANT• A slope calibration must be carried out after having replaced a diaphragm cap orelectrolyte!• For a perfect functioning of the sensor, the slope calibration must be repeated in regularintervals! For swimming pools, a calibration of the sensor every 3-4 weeks is sufficient.• Avoid incorrect metering because of airlocks in the sample water! Air bubbles stickingto the diaphragm of the sensor might cause a low measuring value and thus mightresult in incorrect metering.• Observe the valid national regulations for calibration intervals!<strong>Pr</strong>econditions • Constant flow at the in-line probe• Operating pressure of max. 1 bar maintained• Constant temperature of the sample water• Identical temperatures of sample water and sensor (wait for approx. 15 min.)• Constant pH valueZero Point CalibrationIf the sensor is operated at a <strong>Pr</strong>o<strong>Minent</strong> control unit, a zero point calibration is normally notrequired. Perform a zero point calibration if you use the sensor at the lower measuring range limit.<strong>Pr</strong>econditions • The sensor has been run-in• Constant flow at the in-line probe Dip the sensor in a bucket with clean, ozone-free tap water. Stir with the sensor until the reading at the control unit has been stable for 5 min. Calibrate the control unit to zero according to its operating instructions. Reinstall the sensor into the in-line probe (DGM; DLG).Slope TestDetermine the ozone content of the sample water using a suitable measuring tool (e.g. DPD 4).Set the determined value at the control unit according to the unit’s operating instructions.Repeat the calibration the next day!NOTECalibration at increased temperatureBecause ozone is only physically solved in water, it quickly outgasses from the medium atincreased temperatures (> 30 °C). The DPD measurement must thus be performed quickly.After sample-taking, the reagents should be added within 1 minute. In this case, the reddye is to be directly generated at the sampling site by adding reagents and then themeasurement is to be performed in the laboratory as quickly as possible.<strong>Pr</strong>o<strong>Minent</strong> ® Page 39

OzoneCleaning the MembraneIMPORTANT• Before removing the sensor, switch off downstream control devices or switch to manualoperation. In case of sensor failure, an incorrect measuring value may be present at theinput of the control/meas ur ing unit and result in an uncontrolled metering in a controlcircuit.• Depressurise the system before removing the sensor! For this purpose, close theshut-off valves upstream and downstream of the fitting. When removing the sensor,liquid might leak if the system is pressurised.• Read the safety notes of the system operator before opening the DGM/DLG III!If the membrane is contaminated and the sensor cannot be calibrated, try to gently clean themembrane.First remove the sensor.Remove loosely adhering deposits Rinse the membrane under a gentle flow of cold water, remove lime deposits For this purpose, immerse the membrane cap into a 1 % hydrochloric acid (e.g. over night). Rinse the membrane cap with a lot of water.Now, fill the sensor with electrolyte, let the sensor run in and calibrate again.Replacing the MembraneIf a calibration is not possible even after cleaning or if the membrane is damaged, it has to bereplaced (see “Assembly”).Page 44<strong>Pr</strong>o<strong>Minent</strong> ®

If electrolyte comes into contact with the eyes or skin,rinse the affected areas thoroughly with water! If reddening of the eyes occurs, con sultan eye specialist!IMPORTANT• Do not touch or damage the membrane and electrodes!• Always keep electrolyte bottles tightly closed after use! Do not transfer electrolyte intoany other bottles or containers.• The electrolyte should not be kept for more than 1 year! (See label for use-by date).• The membrane cap may only be used once!Pouring electrolyte Remove the membrane protection cap and unscrew the membrane cap from the electrodeshaft. Fill the membrane cap with electrolyte up to the lower thread, if possible bubble-free.If you wish to considerably reduce the running-in time, you must expel the air between the gauzeand the membrane (as the air is expelled, the membrane is visible by reflecting through theelectrolyte as it is being filled).There are two ways of doing this:1. Tap the membrane cap lightly from the side, from the bottom and from the top with the sensorshaft until the air bubbles stop rising (you can see this in good light).2. Fill the enclosed pipette with electrolyte from the membrane cap, if possible up to the top.Please ensure that no air is taken in. Take the opening of the pipette as close as possible to the membrane (through the electrolyte)and place a couple of drops on it from the pipette (do not release any air from the pipettewhen doing this!)IMPORTANTAfter using the pipette, rinse thoroughly with water and store in the original sensor packaging!Assembling membrane cap Insert the finger nail below both rubber seals at the semi-circular pocket in the membrane cap(the vent is positioned there) and pull the rubber seals to the bottom until the needle top-sizedvent becomes visible and hold the seals. When screwing together, excess electrolyte shouldescape freely through the vent such that the membrane is not damaged by excess pressure. Position the electrode shaft vertically on the filled membrane cap. Do not obstruct the vent with your fingers. Screw the electrode shaft manually into the membrane cap up to the stop such that there isno free gap between the membrane cap and the electrode shaft. Re-insert the rubber seals flush into the groove of the membrane cap.Page 48<strong>Pr</strong>o<strong>Minent</strong> ®
H 2O 2IMPORTANT• Depressurise the system before installing the sensor in the flow housing. Close stopvalves to the front and rear of the in-line probe housing.• Placing/removing the sensor into/from the in-line probe housing should be done slowly.• Do not exceed the maximum permitted operating pressure of 1 bar!• Ensure the flow does not fall below the minimum flow rate of 30 l/h!Monitor the flow on the connected measurement and control equipment. If the measuredvalue is used as a control, switch off the control by reducing to below the minimumflow rate or switch to basic load.• Avoid installations which allow air bubbles to build up in the sample water.Air bubbles that cling to the diaphragm of the sensor can cause the measured value tobe too small and thus may lead to incorrect metering in the control system.Fitting the sensor in thein-line probe housing Observe the operation and safety instructions con tained in the operating instructions manual forthe in-line probe housing!DLG III Push the O-ring up over the sensor as far as the terminal block. Insert the sensor into the DLG III. Tighten the sensor with thread plugs.DGM Push the O-ring up over the sensor as far as the terminal block; leave a plain washer in theDGM. Insert the sensor into the DGM and fit tightly with terminal screw until the O-ring is sealed: theterminal block determines the correct depth for fitting the sensor.8.3.2.2 DULCOTEST ® PER Sensor for Hydrogen Peroxide, ElectricalInstallationGeneral Safety InstructionsIMPORTANT• Install the equipment so that the power supply for the controller never falls below theminimum! A power supply that is too low causes errors in measured values and can leadto over metering in a control system!• The sensor PER is a sensor with a passive 4-20 mA two-wire interface. The power issupplied externally or from a mea suring and control system. Connection to theDULCOMETER ® D1C controller from <strong>Pr</strong>o<strong>Minent</strong> ensures automatic compliance withinter face safety requirements.• When electrically connecting the sensor to the measur ing equipment, only use signalcables with a diameter of 4 mm.Electrical Installation Turn the upper section of the sensor anti-clockwise through 90° and remove. Strip the outer insulation back by about 5 cm so that both con nectors are visible. Loosen the M-12 connection and feed the 2-connector cable through it. Whilst doing this,keep the two-connector signal cable in the sensor (5 cm). Strip the insulation from both ends of the cable and connect to the terminal, as shown in thefig. (use the screw driver provided). 1 = plus, 2 = minus Tighten the M-12 connection.

H 2O 2Electrical connectionto sensor5 cm1 2CommissioningCAUTION• Please note that for regulation tasks, the response time T 90is 8 min.!• The power supply for the measuring equipment and the sensor must not be interrupted.If power is inter rupted for a long period (>24 hrs), commissioning should be re-started(run-in and calibrate the sensor).• Do not switch off the measuring system during intermittent operation!Connect the metering device after any time-delay. However, if there is a long period(weeks) during which no disinfectant is metered, disconnect the sensor from the powersupply and store in a dry place.• The current signal should not exceed 20 mA!Otherwise the current signal can drop, the sensor can become damaged and this cancause dangerous over metering in a control system! In order to avoid this, install a monitoringsystem, which turns off the remaining H 2O 2control and triggers an alarm. Themonitoring system should not be automatically reset.• Avoid installations that can cause air bubbles in the sample water! Air bubbles clingingto the sensor diaphragm can cause the measured value to be too small and thus lead todangerous over metering in a control system!• After commissioning, the sensor should always be stored in a moist environment.After successful installation, the measuring equip ment can be acti vated. After that you need towait for the designated running-in time for the sensor.8.3.2.3 DULCOTEST ® PER Sensor for Hydrogen Peroxide, Running-InRunning-In PeriodIn order to obtain a stable reading, the sensor requires the following running-in times:Initial commissioning: approx. 2 - 6 hoursafter changing the diaphragm: approx. 2 - 6 hourRe-commissioning:approx. 1 - 3 hoursIf air between the gauze and the diaphragm was not expelled then, naturally, running-in times willbe longer!8.3.2.4 DULCOTEST ® PER Sensor for Hydrogen Peroxide, CalibrationCAUTION• You must perform a slope test after changing a diaphragm cap or electrolyte.• You should perform a slope test at regular intervals to ensure flawless operation of thesensor.• You should observe the relevant national regulations in force for calibration intervals!Page 50<strong>Pr</strong>o<strong>Minent</strong> ®
H 2O 2<strong>Pr</strong>econditions Operation of the sensor is stable (no possible drift or fluctua ting measured values during aminimum period of 5 minutes). This is generally guaranteed when the following conditions arefulfilled:• the H 2O 2concentration of the sample water is isochronically sufficiently constant (please notethe sensor’s response time of 8 min!)• the relevant running-in time has been allowed• permitted flow is present in the in-line probe housing• Temperature compensation is given between sensor and sample water (wait approx.15 minutes).Zero Point CalibrationA zero point calibration is only required at the lower limit of the measuring range.Slope TestIMPORTANT• After an initial commissioning, check calibration after 24 hours.• Repeat calibration if the H 2O 2concentration varies by more than 15 % from thereference value.On Photometry If not yet installed, install the sensor into the in-line probe DLG III or DGM. Perform sampling. This must be performed in direct proximity to the sensor. Recommendation:in case of the in-line probe DGM use the sampling valve. Determine the H 2O 2concentration as quickly as possible with a Photometer (please observeoperating instructions! E.g. use the Photometer DULCOTEST ® DT3). Set the determined H 2O 2concentration in ppm at the control device according to its operatinginstructions (see operating instructions DULCOMETER ® D1C, measured variable H 2O 2,Chap. 8, Complete operating menu, Setting menu “Calibrate H 2O 2”).ppm2000Permanent display 1mea. val. 2000 ppmfeedfwd: 70 %ctrlout: 59 %w: 100.0 ppmPermanent display 2only with control(w = setpoint)Positive values of setting variable: H 2 O 2Negative values of setting variable: De-H 2 O 2(H 2 O 2 destruction)D1C2-H2O2-011-GBCalibration of the H 2O 2SensorDuring calibration, the D1C sets the positioning outputs to “0”.

If it has not already been done, fit the sensor in the in-line probe housing DLG III or DGM. Take a sample for titration. You should do this in the immediate vicinity of the sensor. Tip: forthe DGM in-line probe housing, use the sample extraction valve. Determine the PAA concentration as quickly as possible. Adjust the value ascertained for PAA concentration in ppm on the control equipment inaccordance with the relevant opera ting instructions manual (see operating instructions manualfor DULCOMETER ® D1C for the measured value peracetic acid, chap. 8, complete operatingmenu, set-up menu “PAA cali bration”).Regarding PAA Standard Solution Add a known concentration of PAA to a standard solution e.g. in the cup of the DLG III in-lineprobe housing.

Peracetic Acid (PAA)Sensor: TroubleshootingYou must look at the entire measurement station in order to locate any faults. This consists of:1) Measuring/control equipment2) Electrical cable and connections3) In-line probe housing and hydraulic connections4) SensorPossible causes for faults shown in the table below mainly refer to the sensor. Before beginningto look for any faults, you should ensure that all operating instructions have been carried out inaccordance with the technical data.a) Peracetic acid content in accordance with the area of measurementb) Sample water temperature 5 - 45 °C and constantc) Flow 30 - 60 l/hYou can use the sensor simulator (DULCOMETER ® simulator order no. 1004042) to locate thefault in the measuring and control system. The operating instructions manual for theDULCOMETER ® D1C measured value peracetic acid gives full details on how to locate a fault inthe measuring and control equipment.Where there are large discrepancies between the measured values of the sensor and the measuredvalue of the reference methods, you should first consider all possible faults relating to thereference methods.

Chlorine Dioxide8.5.2 DULCOTEST ® CDE Chlorine Dioxide Sensor, Commissioning8.5.2.1 DULCOTEST ® CDE Chlorine Dioxide Sensor, AssemblyAssemblyPouring electrolyteIMPORTANT• The membrane at the lower end of the membrane cap and the electrodes at the lowerend of the electrode shaft should not be touched, damaged or brought into contact withgreasy substances! Otherwise the sensor will not work correctly. If this is the case,replace membrane cap or return the sensor for cleaning the electrodes.• <strong>Pr</strong>otect yourself and your clothing from contact with the electrolyte (acid!) using appropriateprotective equipment. The electrolyte can cause irritation to skin and damage toclothing. In case of contact, rinse immediately with plenty of cold water.NOTECarry out the following steps at the washbasin! Open the electrolyte bottle and screw on the nozzle. Remove the red cap completely from the nozzle and cut off the end of the nozzle. Remove the membrane cap and unscrew the membrane cap from the electrode shaft. Rinse the membrane cap and the electrode with a small amount of electrolyte. Fill the membrane cap up the top with electrolyte and allow electrolyte to overflow down theinside wall.Assembling membrane cap Locate the electrode shaft vertically onto the filled membrane cap and turn until the threadbites. Rotate the membrane cap so that the vent hole is at the top. Slowly screw on the membrane cap by hand up to the stop. In the process the excess electrolytewill seep out of the vent hole. Rinse sensor under running water to remove excess electrolyte from the sensor and fromhands.Assembling sensorIMPORTANT• The sensor must be slowly inserted into or withdrawn from the in-line probe housing!The membrane could otherwise be damaged.• Do not touch the in-line probe housing flow resistor with the membrane!• The sensor must be kept wet at all times once commissioned - e.g. the in-line probehousing must not be allowed to run dry.Assemble the sensor as described in the operating instructions supplied with the in-line probehousing.8.5.2.2 DULCOTEST ® CDE Chlorine Dioxide Sensor, Electrical InstallationIMPORTANT• The sensor is not electrically isolated from the sample water. All other elements mustbe isolated! The controller must be isolated both from the sensor and from the supplyvoltage!• The supply voltage must not fall below 16 V DC, even for a short period! The currentsource must able to sustain 35 mA at a min. 16 V DC! Insufficient supply voltage willresult in an inaccurate reading!• After the electrical connection of the sensor, the sensor has to be inserted into thesample water which has to contain chlorine dioxide.Page 70<strong>Pr</strong>o<strong>Minent</strong> ®
Chlorine DioxideThe sensor incorporates a passive 4-20 mA two-wire interface, i.e. the power supply is providedexternally e.g. via the controller.• Safety requirements are automatically met if the sensor is connected to a <strong>Pr</strong>o<strong>Minent</strong> ®con trol ler (e.g. DULCOMETER ® D1C).• Do not switch off the measuring system when in intermittent use! If necessary, dosingequipment should be timer-controlled!Electrical Installation Rotate the sensor adapter anticlockwise by 90 ºC and remove (bayonet fitting). Unscrew the PG-7 threaded connector tensioning screw and insert the signal cable leadingfrom the controller. Strip the ends of the cable and attach to the two-wire connector: 1 = positive, 2 = negative. Insert approx. 5 cm of signal cable into the sensor and tighten the PG-7 threaded connectortensioning screw. Insert the sensor adapter completely into the housing and screw together carefully to preventdamage to the ends of the bayonet connector.Electrical connectionto sensor5 cm1 28.5.2.3 DULCOTEST ® CDE Chlorine Dioxide Sensor, Running-InIMPORTANT• The sensor must be used only in surfactant-free water or solutions!• When operating the sensor, the sample water must permanently contain chlorinedioxide.• Do not switch off the measuring system during interval operation!After operation without chlorine dioxide, running-in periods are to be reckoned with.If required, switch on metering unit time-delayed!If no chlorine dioxide is metered for a longer period of time, the sensor must be disconnectedfrom the power supply and stored dry.Running-In PeriodThe sensor requires a run-in period before it will display stable readings.Commissioning:2 - 6 hRe-commissioning:1 - 3 hDiaphragm-/electrolyte replacement: approx. 0.5 h<strong>Pr</strong>o<strong>Minent</strong> ® Page 71
Chlorine Dioxide8.5.2.4 DULCOTEST ® CDE Chlorine Dioxide Sensor, CalibrationThe sensor can be calibrated after the run-in period.IMPORTANT• A slope test must be carried out after replacing the diaphragm cap or electrolyte!• Slope tests must be carried out at regular intervals to ensure correct functioning of thesensor! For testing drinking water, calibration of the sensor every 3 - 4 weeks issuf fi cient.• Avoid incorrect dosing due to air bubbles in the water. Air bubbles clinging to thesensor diaphragm can reduce the measured variable and thereby lead to overdosing.• Observe applicable national directives for calibration intervals!<strong>Pr</strong>econditions • Constant flow to the in-line probe housing• Constant sample water temperature• Same sample water and sensor temperatures (wait approx. 15 min.)Zero Point CalibrationIf a <strong>Pr</strong>o<strong>Minent</strong> controller is being used to operate the sensor there is no need for zero pointcalibration. Zero point calibration should be carried out, however, if operating the sensor in thelower measurement range, or if using the 0.5 ppm variant.<strong>Pr</strong>econditions • The sensor has been run in• Flow to the in-line probe housing is constant and complies with technical datas Insert the sensor into a container of clean, ozone- and ClO 2-free water. Stir with the sensor until the measured variable displayed at the controller has remained stablefor 5 min. Calibrate the controller to zero in accordance with the operating instructions. Replace sensor into the in-line probe housing (DGM; DLG).Slope Test Determine the chlorine dioxide content in the sample water using an appropriate measurementdevice (e.g. DPD-1). Set the resulting value at the controller in accordance with the operating instructions.Repeat calibration after 1 day!NOTECalibration at high temperaturesAs chlorine dioxide, in contrast to chlorine, is only physically dissolved in water, itevap o rates out of the liquid very quickly at high temperatures (> 30 °C). We thereforerec om mend that you act quickly when carrying out the DPD measurement. There shouldbe no more than 1 min. between the sample extraction and the addition of reagents.Therefore the reagent should be added directly at the sample extraction point andmeas ure ment should follow as soon as possible afterwards in the laboratory.Page 72<strong>Pr</strong>o<strong>Minent</strong> ®

Replace the membrane cap with a newone or return the sensor for cleaning the electrodes.• The electrolyte gel is non-toxic and can easily be washed off skin/clothing with water.NOTECarry out the following tasks over a washbasin! Open the attached electrolyte cylinder and screw the socket onto it. Remove the red sealing cap from the socket and cut off the socket above to open the socketchannel. Remove the membrane protection cap and unscrew the membrane cap from the electrodeshaft. Place the electrolyte cylinder socket perpendicularly to the lower edge inside the membranecap without touching the membrane. Fill the membrane cap with the electrolyte right up to where the threads start, tighten thesocket, ensuring it remains in the electrolyte. When doing this, a few very small bubbles mayform. Check that the membrane is completely moist – the previously milky mem brane becomestransparent. Wait for a few moments, if necessary. Speed up the process, if required, bycarefully tapping the membrane cap several times on a firm, even surface, which will notdamage the cap. If filling is unsuccessful, repeat the process.IMPORTANTAfter filling the membrane cap, it should be screwed onto the electrode shaft only aftercompletely moistening the membrane with gel (be comes transparent)!Assemblingmembrane cap Carefully place the electrode shaft perpendicularly to the filled membrane cap and turn until itis inserted into the screw thread. Turn the electrode shaft so that the small hole underneath the rubber seal is showing above. Manually screw in the membrane cap, slowly, as far as the buffer, (mem brane cap should nottouch the rubber seal). The membrane should not bend under internal pressure, otherwise itwill be unfit for use! When screwing together, the excess electrolyte escapes through the smallhole underneath the rubber seal. Any electrolyte that has leaked onto the measuring cell or your own fingers should be rinsedoff under running water.Membrane capwith electrolyte bottleElectrolytebottleVentholeMembranecapNozzleElectrolytefilling levelPage 80<strong>Pr</strong>o<strong>Minent</strong> ®
ChloriteAssembling sensorIMPORTANT• Depressurise the system before inserting the sensor into the in-line probe housing.Close the stop valves before and after the in-line probe housing.• Insertion and withdrawal of the sensor into or out of the in-line probe housing should becarried out slowly.• Do not exceed the maximum operating pressure of 1 bar.• Do not allow the flow to fall below the minimum rate of 30 l/h. Monitor the flow with theconnected measuring device/controller. If the sensor’s signal is used for controlling,switch off the controller or adjust it to constant load when the flow rate falls below thelower limit.• Avoid installations which allow air bubbles to enter the sample water. Air bubblesclinging to the sensor membrane can lower the resultant measured value and causeincorrect dosing within the control system.Fitting the sensor inthe in-line probe housing Note also the instructions and safety guidelines in the operating instructions of the in-line probehousing.DLG III Slide the O-ring from below over the sensor up to the clamping ring. Insert the sensor into the DLG III. Fix the sensor tightly by screwing in the plug.DGM Slide the O-ring from below over the sensor up to the clamping ring. Leave a flat washer insidethe DGM. Insert the sensor in the DGM and screw on the plug until the O-ring seals. The clamping ringdetermines the installation depth of the sensor.8.6.2.2 DULCOTEST ® CLT1 Sensor for Chlorite, Electrical InstallationGeneral Safety GuidelinesIMPORTANTInstall in such as way as to ensure a totally reliable, uninterrupted power supply to thecontroller! Too low a voltage supply can cause measuring failures, which may result indangerous overdosing within a control system!The CLT 1 sensor has a passive 4-20 mA two-wire interface. The power supply is providedexternally or by the controller. When the sensor is connected to the DULCOMETER ® D1C chloritecontroller the interface’s safety require ments are met automatically.IMPORTANTFor electrical connection of the sensor to the controller, only use wires with a diameter of4 mm.Electrical Installation Turn the top part of the sensor a quarter of a turn anticlockwise and remove.

ChloriteElectrical connectionto sensor5 cm1 28.6.2.3 DULCOTEST ® CLT1 Sensor for Chlorite, Running-InCAUTION• The power supply to the measuring device and to the sensor must not be interrupted. Ifthe power supply is interrupted (> 2 hours) the sensor must be re-commis sioned.• Do not switch off the measuring system during interval operation! After operationwithout chlorite, running-in periods are to be reckoned with. If required, switch onmetering unit time-delayed! If no chlorite is metered for a longer period of time, thesensor must be disconnected from the power supply and stored dry.• The sensor’s current signal must not exceed 20 mA. Otherwise the sensor may bedamaged, which may result in dangerous overdosing within a control system.To avoid this, install a monitor, which permanently switches off the chlorite controlsystem and triggers an alarm. The monitoring equipment must not be automaticallyre-setting.• Once the sensor has been commissioned it must be kept permanently wet.After completed installation the controller can be switched on. The system should then beallowed to run in for the set run-in period.Running-In PeriodIn order to achieve a stable display value the sensor should be run in for the following run inperiods.First commissioning: 6-12 hAfter changing membrane: 3-6 hRe-commissioning: approx. 6-12 h8.6.2.4 DULCOTEST ® CLT1 Sensor for Chlorite, CalibrationCAUTION• Carry out a slope test every time the membrane or electrolyte is changed.• Avoid air-bubbles in the sample flow. They can attach at the sensor mem brane, whichmay cause too low measured values. Within a control system this may lead to dangerousover dosing.• For proper function of the sensor, the slope test has to be repeated regularly.• If installing the sensor outside Germany, please comply with the local regulations forcalibration intervals.<strong>Pr</strong>econditions The sensor reading is stable (no drifts or unsteady values for at least 5 min.). This is normallyfulfilled, when• The system has been allowed to run-in for the specified period• The flow through the in-line probe housing is constant• The sample medium and the sensor are at the same temperature• The pH value is constant and within the admissible range (pH 6.5 - 9.5).Page 82<strong>Pr</strong>o<strong>Minent</strong> ®
ChloriteZero Point CalibrationA zero point calibration relating to the DULCOMETER ® D1C Chlorite is only necessary if thesensor is used at the lower limit of the measuring range. Remove the sensor from the DLG III or DGM in-line probe housing (see DLG III, DGM operatinginstructions) Immerse the sensor in a container filled with clean water, free from chlorine and oxidisingagents (Fe 2+ , Mn 2+ , nitrite, …). Stir by using the sensor, until the measured value remains stable. Adjust the controller (DULCOMETER ® D1C, Chlorite) to zero, according to it’s operatinginstructions (see operating instructions DULCOMETER ® D1C, Chlorite, chapter 8, completeoperating menu, settings menu “Cali brating Clt zero point”) Reinstall the sensor into the in-line-probe-housing (DGM, DLG III).Slope Test Insert the sensor into the DLG III or DGM in-line probe housing, if not already done. Take a water sample for DPD-measurement. Sampling location has to be close to the installedsensor. Recommendation: use the sampling tap in the case of the DGM in-line probe housing. Determine the chlorite content with a suitable DPD-Method ( e.g. DPD). Input the measured value into the controller according to it’s operating instructions (seeoperating instructions DULCOMETER ® D1C, Chlorite, chapter 8, complete operating menu,settings menu “Calibrating Clt”) After initial installation of the sensor, check the calibration by DPD-measurement 24 hours later.Recommended frequency of calibration: weeklyppm0.55Permanent display 1mea. val. 0.55 ppmfeedfwd: 70 %ctrlout: 59 %w: 0.40 ppmPermanent display 2only with control(w = setpoint)Positive values of setting variable: chloriteNegative values of setting variable: De-Clt(chlorite destruction)D1C2-Clt-011-GBCalibration of the Chlorite SensorDuring the calibration the DULCOMETER ® D1C switches the control outputs to “0”.

It protectsthe contacts against short-circuit, even if some water gets in their surroundings.• Only loosen and tighten the retainer of the sensor cartridge by hand!(The retainer of the sensor cartridge has a bayonet lock.) Place the sensor cartridge in the transmitter as shown (place the sensor cartridge with the twopins at the bottom in the respective holes on the transmitter). Screw the retainer of the sensor cartridge onto the transmitter until the bayonet lock engages.8.7.2.2 DULCOTEST ® Sensor for Dissolved Oxygen, Electrical InstallationIMPORTANT• Only connect the sensor after having disconnected the supply voltage!• Please observe the relevant local regulations for the installation!• When extending the cable, a total length of 1,000 m may not be exceeded! Always use atwo-core, shielded cable (at least 2 x 0.2 mm 2 (24 AWG)!Connect the sensor to the controller D1C using the two-core, shielded cable.Initialisation Supply the sensor with voltage Hold the sensor to the top - after a view seconds it emits a 4 mA signal (= 0 ppm). After 2 min.,the sensor is initialised. Subsequently, let the sensor run in.8.7.2.3 DULCOTEST ® Sensor for Dissolved Oxygen, Running-InHold the sensor in atmospheric air to the bottom until the measured value at theDULCOMETER ® D1C has stabilised. A running-in time of 2 min. is sufficient in most cases.Subsequently, calibrate the sensor!<strong>Pr</strong>o<strong>Minent</strong> ® Page 91
Oxygen8.7.2.4 DULCOTEST ® Sensor for Dissolved Oxygen, CalibrationIMPORTANT• The sensor should not be subjected to direct sunlight or other heat source duringcalibration. This will prevent temperature compensation.• The sensor is calibrated in the normal atmosphere (oxygen content = 20.9 vol. %).• Observe relevant national legislation when calibrating, e.g. in Germany EN 25814.NOTE• Do not calibrate the sensor with a DULCOMETER ® D1C controller for longer than10 min. The D1C will otherwise display an error (error text “O 2input ≤ 4 mA”).• If you cancel the calibration within 3 min. the sensor will continue to operate with theprevious calibration values. Clean the sensor. Check whether the DULCOMETER ® D1C displays a stable value in the normal atmosphere. Hold the sensor up in the atmosphere to calibrate. The sensor will emit a 4 mA signal throughoutthis phase and the DULCOMETER ® D1C will display “0” ppm. In the calibration menu ofthe DULCOMETER ® D1C, chap. 8, “Calibrating the O 2sensor up”, the remaining calibrationtime is counted down. After approx. 5 min. lower the sensor again. Calibration is now complete. The sensor will startto measure again.Calibrate the sensor every six months or more frequently if the application requires it.Influences on themeasured variable The integrated temperature sensor compensates temperature influences on the measuredvariable.To minimise the effect of the following parameters on the accuracy of the measured valuesyou can enter actual values in the DULCOMETER ® D1C “Measurement parameters setting?”menu during calibration and in the interim period (see operating instructions manual forDULCOMETER ® D1C, measured variable oxygen, part 2):- Local atmospheric pressure at the measuring point related to the height above sea levelin mbar- Height of measurement point above sea level in m- Relative humidity of the atmosphere at the measuring point in %- Air temperature at the measuring point in °C- Water temperature in °C- Water salt content in g/lThe “Factory settings” table in the Appendix of the individual operating instructions of thesensors gives the influence of these parameters on the measured value where these deviate fromthe set values.The table also shows how to determine the parameters.Page 92<strong>Pr</strong>o<strong>Minent</strong> ®

Check the zero pointChecking Measured Value Remove the sensor from the water and hold downwards at all times. Clean the sensor and the membrane and rub dry with a soft cloth. Wait until the measured value is stable (keep away from direct sunlight and any other heatsource) (if “Measurement range exceeded” appears (output signal = 22 mA) raise the maximumupper value limit to 20 ppm (mg/l)). Measure the air temperature at the sensor and enter in “Meas ure ment parameters setting?”menu. If the DULCOMETER ® D1C is correcting the salt content, set the salt content temporarily to“0” in the “Measurement pa ram e ters setting?” menu. Read off the measured value. Compare the measured value with the corresponding value at the measured temperature fromthe saturation table (in the Appendix): if the measured value deviates less than ±15 % fromthis the sensor is operating correctly. Reset the salt content in the “Measurement parameters setting?” menu to the original value.Checking Zero Point <strong>Pr</strong>oduce oxygen-free water:What you need1 clean container for 1 l liquid (the sensor unit holder must be immersed in the liquid later)1 stirrer1 l distilled water1 g sodium sulphite (NaSO 3)*1 mg cobalt (II) salt (cobalt(II)chloride hexahydrate; CoCl 2· 6H 2O)**Purity rating “for analysis” Mix the salts into the distilled water and stir.

Try therefore to clean thesensor with it pointing downwards.• Check that there is clearance all around the gold pin electrode in the hole in the side ofthe sensor (membrane rupture detector).NOTEIf the sensor is pointing upward during cleaning it will emit a 4 mA signal. Remove the sensor from the pool. Rinse the sensor membrane in clean water – if necessary add a little washing up detergent. Dry the sensor membrane with a soft cloth. Place the sensor back into the pool.Replacing Sensor InsertIMPORTANT• If the sensor is in use, it is essential to avoid water from reaching the contacts whenreplacing the sensor insert. If this cannot be avoided, dry the water off carefully using ahair dryer.• Do not remove the silicon paste on the back of the sensor insert. It protects the contactsfrom short circuit even if some water has penetrated.• The bracket of the sensor insert must be tightened and slack ened only by hand (thebracket of the sensor holder has a bayonet fitting). Switch off the power. Remove the sensor from the pool and lay on a firm surface with the membrane underneath. Rinse the sensor with clean water Dry the sensor with a soft cloth until every drop has been removed. Remove the old sensor insert Place a new sensor insert (insert the two lugs on the bottom of the sensor into the cor responding holes on the transmitter). Switch on the power once more then run in and calibrate the sensor.<strong>Pr</strong>o<strong>Minent</strong> ® Page 95

The adjustment intervals depend on relevant operating conditions. Theycan vary from a few days to up to 8 weeks.Having connected the sensor to the transmitter by means of the sensor cable (taking care thatconnectors and cable remain absolutely dry), dip the sensor into a pH 7 standardizing solutionand adjust transmitter exactly to read this value.Remove the sensor, rinse it with water, preferably distilled water, and dry it by swabbing it withsoft, non-fluffing tissue paper.IMPORTANTDo not rub since this might cause static electricity and false readings.Immerse the sensor in a buffer solution differing by a least 2 pH from pH 7 and calibrate after thevalue on the display has stabilised. If within 30 seconds a steady-state value is not produced orcalibration has proved impossible, clean sensor and repeat calibration. If again unsuccessful,replace sensor with a new one.Page 106<strong>Pr</strong>o<strong>Minent</strong> ®

Ensurethat the thread is aligned correctly. It will otherwise affect the stability of the measurementpoints in pressurised processes.• The axis through the hole of the sensor tip must line up with the pipe axis.• The sensor tip must be covered by the water sample at all times during measurement.• The measurement results will otherwise be incorrect.IMPORTANTIf you later require measurement accuracy better than 10 %, fit a tap near the sensor totake water samples.The sensor ICT 2 can be directly installed in tanks and pipes or via a flange and/or an in-lineprobe housing. Before installing the sensor, carry out commissioning up to and including zero point calibration. Insert the sensor into the opening of the media tubing or the tank (the flat seal must sit on theinside of the tubing or tank). If used in flowing media, the sensor tip bore must be placed inthe centre of the tube cross section. Rotate the sensor so that the bore of the sensor tip is facing in the direction of the flow. Tighten the union nut.8.11.2.2 DULCOTEST ® ICT 2 Inductive Conductivity Sensor, Electrical InstallationIMPORTANT• Connect the sensor only when the mains power supply is switched off.• Do not shorten the connection lead. The measurement result will otherwise be in correct.The warranty is void in this case.• If using a DULCOMETER ® D1C controller use a mains cable with earth lead! The sensorcable screening must be earthed by the earth lead if there is potential inter ference!• Install according to the relevant national directives. Break open the large opening in the middle of the base of the DULCOMETER ® D1C housing(see Operating instructions DULCOMETER ® D1C, part 1) Screw in a 13.5 skintop connector (supplied with the DULCOMETER ® D1C controller) Cut off the brown and the yellow cable Earth the total cable screen via the power lead of the mains cable of the DULCOMETER ® D1Ccontroller if there is potential inter ference. For this purpose crimp e.g. a screen connector ontothe total screen. Connect the sensor to the DULCOMETER ® D1C controller in accordance with the terminalconnection diagram Tighten the skintop connector until watertight, ensuring that there is still sufficient cable insidethe DULCOMETER ® D1C controller.Page 118<strong>Pr</strong>o<strong>Minent</strong> ®

Inductive ConductivitySlope TestIMPORTANT• Always follow the handling instructions below.• During calibration the water sample must be flowing evenly without bubbles or tur bulenceor at a standstill.• If calibrating in flowing water, the electrolytic conductivity of the water sample must beconstant.• The axis through the bore of the sensor tip must line up with the direction of the flow. Cover the sensor tip completely with the water sample (immerse or flood the environment)There are now three alternative procedures for different require ments:Measurement Accuracy to within approx. 10 % Set the temperature coefficient of the water sample in the “meas. parameter setting?”setting menu (related to 25 °C. Arrow keys.) or determine using the “calibration ” settingmenu (see Operating instructions DULCOMETER ® D1C, Inductive Con duc tiv i ty)install. factorsetting ?install. factor0,5100 μS/cm Enter the sensor installation factor in the “install. factor” setting menu (arrow keys). Theinstallation factor is “1” if the distance from the wall a of the sensor tip is greater than 30 mm.High Measurement AccuracyCalibration with Reference Metering EquipmentCalibration of the sensor is normally carried out once it has been installed with a referencemetering device (e.g. a hand-held meter for conductive conductivity).Measurement Accuracy of Reference MeterThe reference metering equipment must have a corresponding measurement accuracy (seeoperating instructions of the ref er ence metering equipment with respect to the measurementrange and measurement accuracy for conductivity and temperature). In order to exploit themeasurement accuracy of the sensor it must be calibrated to an accuracy of at least 1 %.The reference metering equipment itself must be calibrated using calibration solutions with ameasurement accuracy better than ±1 % (see operating instructions of the reference meteringequip ment).<strong>Pr</strong>o<strong>Minent</strong> recommends a reference metering device with a four-electrode sensor and a temperaturemeasurement accuracy better than ±0.5 °C at 25 °C (e.g. Portamess 911 Cond (order no.1008713) with sensor type LF 204 (order no. 1008723)) for all measurements in conductivityrange above 1 mS/cm.CAUTIONTake suitable precautions when taking samples (safety gear ...)!Page 120<strong>Pr</strong>o<strong>Minent</strong> ®

Adequate accuracy will not otherwisebe achieved.• Ensure cleanliness and avoid carry-over or evaporation of the liquid (evaporation evenafter 20 min. can be too much). Dismantle the sensor from the tubing Wipe deposits off the sensor and rinse then rinse the sensor with deionised water until the displayed conductivity value is less than20 μS/cm Dry the sensor thoroughly (including inside the bore of the sensor tip) Place the sensor in a clean standard glass beaker along with the calibration solution Stir with the sensor until the air bubbles have been expelled from the bore and the displayedconductivity value on the DULCOMETER ® D1C is stable Fix the sensor in the centre of the beaker so that the sensor tip is at least 30 mm from theglass in all directions (preferably 40 mm). The sensor tip must be immersed at least 30 mm(top edge of sensor tip) Wait 20 min. until the temperature has equalised between the sensor and calibration solution(1 °C temperature deviation equals approx. 2 % measurement error) Set the temperature coefficient at the DULCOMETER ® D1C to the value specified by themanufacturer for the calibration solution (e.g. approx. 1.86 %/K for KCI solutions around 25 °C)<strong>Pr</strong>o<strong>Minent</strong> ® Page 121

Total Chlorine8.14.2 DULCOTEST ® CTE Sensor for Total Chlorine, Commissioning8.14.2.1 DULCOTEST CTE Sensor for Total Chlorine, AssemblyAssemblyCAUTIONDo not swallow the electrolyte. Avoid contact of the electrolyte with skin and eyes.Otherwise wash with a lot of water. In case of eye inflammation, contact a doctor.IMPORTANT• Do not touch or damage the membrane or electrodes.• The electrolyte is sensitive to oxidation: always keep the electrolyte bottle closed afteruse. Do not transfer the electrolyte into other containers.• The electrolyte should not be stored for more than 1 year and should not yellow (use bydate, see label).• As far as possible avoid forming air bubbles when pouring the electrolyte into themembrane cap.• The membrane cap must be used once only.NOTE• Store the electrolyte bottle upside down in order that the viscous electrolyte can bepoured easily and bubble free into the membrane cap.• Smaller bubbles will not interfere, larger bubbles leave the electrolyte by rising to thesurface.Pouring electrolyte Open the electrolyte bottle and unscrew the nozzle. Squeeze out excess air. Fill the membrane cap with electrolyte, avoiding air bubbles as far as possible: Place theelectrolyte bottle completely onto the membrane cap. Slowly squeeze the electrolyte out ofthe bottle in one steady stream, while continuously retracting the bottle. The cap is completelyfull when the electrolyte reaches the lower edge of the thread.Assemblingmembrane cap Place the electrode shaft vertically onto the filled membrane cap. Do not cover the vent hole below the rubber seal with your fingers. Screw on the membrane cap by hand as far as possible. There should not be a visible gapbetween the electrode shaft and membrane cap. When you screw on the cap, excess elec trolytewill leak out through the hole below the rubber seal. Wipe away any electrolyte with a soft paper tissue or similar. Rinse the nozzle thoroughly with a clean, warm water jet so that no electrolyte remains on theinside and outside of the nozzle.Assembling sensorIMPORTANT• Depressurise the system before inserting the sensor into the in-line probe housing.Close the stop valves before and after the in-line probe housing.• Insertion and withdrawal of the sensor into or out of the in-line probe housing should becarried out slowly.• Do not exceed the maximum operating pressure of 1 bar.• Do not allow the flow to fall below the minimum rate of 30 l/h. Monitor the flow with theconnected measuring device/controller. If the sensor‘s signal is used for con trolling,switch off the controller or adjust it to constant load when the flow rate falls below thelower limit.• Avoid installations which allow air bubbles to enter the sample water.• Air bubbles clinging to the sensor membrane can lower the resultant measured valueand cause incorrect dosing within the control system.<strong>Pr</strong>o<strong>Minent</strong> ® Page 141
Total ChlorineFitting the sensor inthe in-line probe housing Note also the instructions and safety guidelines in the operating instructions of the in-line probehousing.DLG III Slide the O-ring from below over the sensor up to the clamping ring. Insert the sensor into the DLG III. Fix the sensor tightly by screwing in the plug.DGM Slide the O-ring from below over the sensor up to the clamping ring. Leave a flat washer insidethe DGM. Insert the sensor in the DGM and screw on the plug until the O-ring seals. The clamping ringdetermines the installation depth of the sensor.8.14.2.2 DULCOTEST ® CTE Sensor for Total Chlorine, Electrical InstallationGeneral Safety GuidelinesIMPORTANTInstall in such as way as to ensure a totally reliable, uninterrupted power supply to thecontroller. Too low a voltage supply can cause measuring failures, which may result indangerous overdosing within a control system.The CTE 1-mA sensor has a passive 4-20 mA two-wire interface. The power supply is providedexternally or by the controller. When the sensor is connected to the DULCOMETER ® D1Ccontroller the interface’s safety require ments are met automatically.IMPORTANTFor electrical connection of the sensor to the controller, only use wires with a diameter of4 mm.Electrical Installation Turn the top part of the sensor a quarter of a turn anticlockwise and remove. Remove the outer isolation of the cable for about 5 cm from the end so that the two wiresappear.CTE 1-mA Loosen the M12 threaded connector and guide the 2-wire cable into the sensor. Leave anapprox. 5 cm length of the 2-core measuring line in the sensor. Strip the two wires at their ends and connect them to the terminal block by using thescrewdriver provided: 1 = plus, 2 = minus Tighten up the M12 connector. Insert the top part of the sensor right into the housing and turn the top part clockwise as far asit will go.Electrical connectionto sensor5 cm1 2CTE 1-DMT Insert the 5-pin plug into the socket.Page 142<strong>Pr</strong>o<strong>Minent</strong> ®
Total Chlorine8.14.2.3 DULCOTEST ® CTE Sensor for Total Chlorine, Running-InCAUTION• The power supply to the measuring device and to the sensor must not be interrupted. Ifthe power supply is interrupted (> 2 hours) the sensor must be re-commis sioned.• Do not switch off the measuring system during interval operation. After any operationwithout chlorine, running-in periods must be reckoned with. If required, switch onmetering unit time-delayed! If no chlorine is metered for a longer period of time (weeks),the sensor must be disconnected from the power supply and stored dry.• The sensor’s current signal must not exceed 20 mA. Otherwise the sensor may bedamaged, which may result in dangerous overdosing within a control system.To avoid this, install a monitor, which permanently switches off the chlorine controlsystem and triggers an alarm. The monitoring equipment must not be automaticallyre-setting.• Once the sensor has been commissioned it must be kept permanently wet.After completed installation the controller can be switched on. The system should then beallowed to run in for the set run-in period.Running-In PeriodIn order to achieve a stable display value the sensor should be run in for the following run inperiods.First commissioning: 24 hourAfter changing membrane: 1-6 hRe-commissioning: approx. 4-24 hours8.14.2.4 DULCOTEST ® CTE Sensor for Total Chlorine, CalibrationIMPORTANTThe specified calibration method depending on the type of chlorination agent used mustbe observed.CAUTION• Carry out a slope test every time the membrane or electrolyte is changed.• Avoid air-bubbles in the sample flow. They can attach at the membrane, which maycause too low measured values. Within a control system this may lead to dangerousover dosing.• For proper function of the sensor, the slope test has to be repeated regularly.• If installing the sensor outside Germany, please comply with the local regulations forcalibration intervals.<strong>Pr</strong>econditions The sensor reading is stable (no drifts or unsteady values for at least 5 minutes). This is normallyfulfilled, when• The system has been allowed to run-in for the specified period• The flow through the in-line probe housing is constant and corresponds with the technicaldata• The sample medium and the sensor are at the same temperature• The pH value is constant and within the admissible range (pH 6.5 - 9.5)Zero Point CalibrationZero point calibration is necessary only when the sensor is used at the lower limit of themeas ur ing range. Remove the sensor from the DLG III or DGM in-line probe housing (see DLG III, DGM operatinginstructions) Immerse the sensor in a container with clean water, free of chlorine and bromine. Stir by using the sensor, until the measured value remains stable. Adjust the controller (DULCOMETER ® D1C, chlorine) to zero, according to it‘s operatinginstructions (DULCOMETER ® D1C, chlorine Operating Instructions: Chapter 8, completeoperating menu, settings menu “Calibrating chlorine zero point”) Reinstall the sensor into the in-line probe housing (DGM, DLG III)<strong>Pr</strong>o<strong>Minent</strong> ® Page 143
Total ChlorineSlope Test Insert the sensor into the DLG III or DGM in-line probe housing, if not already done (seeAssembly). Take a water sample for DPD-measurement. Sampling location has to be close to the installedsensor. Recommendation: use the sampling tap in the case of the DGM in-line probe housing. Determine total chlorine content with an appropriate chlorine measurement kit according tothe DPD-4 method (e.g. Photometer DT1, order no. 1003473). Input the measured value into the controller according to it‘s operating manualOperating Instructions: DULCOMETER ® D1C, chlorine Chapter 8, complete operating menu,settings menu “Calibrating chlorine” After initial installation of the sensor, check the calibration by DPD-measurement 24 hours later.

Avoid contact of the electrolyte with skin and eyes. Otherwisewash with a lot of water. In case of eye inflammation, contact a doctor.IMPORTANT• Do not touch or damage the membrane or electrodes.• The electrolyte is sensitive to oxidation: always keep the electrolyte bottle closed afteruse. Do not transfer the electrolyte into other containers.• The electrolyte should not be stored for more than 1 year and should not yellow (use bydate, see label).• As far as possible avoid forming air bubbles when pouring the electrolyte into themembrane cap.• The membrane cap must be used once only.NOTE• Store the electrolyte bottle upside down in order that the viscous electrolyte can bepoured easily and bubble free into the membrane cap.• Smaller bubbles will not interfere, larger bubbles leave the electrolyte by rising to thesurface.Pouring electrolyte Open the electrolyte bottle and unscrew the nozzle. Squeeze out excess air. Fill the membrane cap with electrolyte, avoiding air bubbles as far as possible: Place theelectrolyte bottle completely onto the membrane cap. Slowly squeeze the electrolyte out ofthe bottle in one steady stream, while continuously retracting the bottle. The cap is completelyfull when the electrolyte reaches the lower edge of the thread.Assemblingmembrane cap Place the electrode shaft vertically onto the filled membrane cap. Do not cover the vent hole below the rubber seal with your fingers. Screw on the membrane cap by hand as far as possible. There should not be a visible gapbetween the electrode shaft and membrane cap. When you screw on the cap, excess elec trolytewill leak out through the hole below the rubber seal. Wipe away any electrolyte with a soft paper tissue or similar. Rinse the nozzle thoroughly with a clean, warm water jet so that no electrolyte remains on theinside and outside of the nozzle.Page 154<strong>Pr</strong>o<strong>Minent</strong> ®
pH/ChlorineAssembling sensorIMPORTANT• Depressurise the system before inserting the sensor into the in-line probe housing.Close the stop valves before and after the in-line probe housing.• Insertion and withdrawal of the sensor into or out of the in-line probe housing should becarried out slowly.• Do not exceed the maximum operating pressure of 1 bar.• Do not allow the flow to fall below the minimum rate of 30 l/h. Monitor the flow with theconnected measuring device/controller. If the sensor‘s signal is used for con trolling,switch off the controller or adjust it to constant load when the flow rate falls below thelower limit.• Avoid installations which allow air bubbles to enter the sample water. Air bubblesclinging to the sensor membrane can lower the resultant measured value and causeincorrect dosing within the control system.Fitting the sensor inthe in-line probe housing Note also the instructions and safety guidelines in the operating instructions of the in-line probehousing.DLG III Slide the O-ring from below over the sensor up to the clamping ring. Insert the sensor into the DLG III. Fix the sensor tightly by screwing in the plug.DGM Slide the O-ring from below over the sensor up to the clamping ring. Leave a flat washer insidethe DGM. Insert the sensor in the DGM and screw on the plug until the O-ring seals.

Too low a voltage supply can cause measuring failures, which may result indangerous overdosing within a control system.The CTE 1-mA sensor has a passive 4-20 mA two-wire interface. The power supply is providedexternally or by the controller. When the sensor is connected to the DULCOMETER ® D1Ccontroller the interface’s safety require ments are met automatically.IMPORTANTFor electrical connection of the sensor to the controller, only use wires with a diameter of4 mm.Electrical Installation Turn the top part of the sensor a quarter of a turn anticlockwise and remove. Remove the outer isolation of the cable for about 5 cm from the end so that the two wiresappear.<strong>Pr</strong>o<strong>Minent</strong> ® Page 155

Ifthe power supply is interrupted (> 2 hours) the sensor must be re-commis sioned.• Do not switch off the measuring system during interval operation. After any operationwithout chlorine, running-in periods must be reckoned with. If required, switch onmetering unit time-delayed! If no chlorine is metered for a longer period of time (weeks),the sensor must be disconnected from the power supply and stored dry.• The sensor’s current signal must not exceed 20 mA. Otherwise the sensor may bedamaged, which may result in dangerous overdosing within a control system. To avoidthis, install a monitor, which permanently switches off the chlorine control system andtriggers an alarm. The monitoring equipment must not be automatically re-setting.• Once the sensor has been commissioned it must be kept permanently wet.After completed installation the controller can be switched on. The system should then beallowed to run in for the set run-in period.Running-In PeriodIn order to achieve a stable display value the sensor should be run in for the following run inperiods.First commissioning: 24 hourAfter changing membrane: 1-6 hRe-commissioning: approx. 4-24 hoursPage 156<strong>Pr</strong>o<strong>Minent</strong> ®

They can attach at the membrane, which maycause too low measured values. Within a control system this may lead to dangerousover dosing.• For proper function of the sensor, the slope test has to be repeated regularly.• If installing the sensor outside Germany, please comply with the local regulations forcalibration intervals.<strong>Pr</strong>econditions The sensor reading is stable (no drifts or unsteady values for at least 5 minutes). This is normallyfulfilled, when• The system has been allowed to run-in for the specified period• The flow through the in-line probe housing is constant and corresponds with the Technical data• The sample medium and the sensor are at the same temperature• The pH value is constant and within the admissible range (pH 6.5 - 9.5)Zero Point CalibrationZero point calibration is necessary only when the sensor is used at the lower limit of the meas uringrange. Remove the sensor from the DLG III or DGM in-line probe housing (see DLG III, DGM operatinginstructions) Immerse the sensor in a container with clean water, free of chlorine and bromine. Stir by using the sensor, until the measured value remains stable. Adjust the controller (DULCOMETER ® D1C, chlorine) to zero, according to it‘s operatinginstructions (DULCOMETER ® D1C, chlorine Operating Instructions: Chapter 8, completeoperating menu, settings menu “Calibrating chlorine zero point”) Reinstall the sensor into the in-line probe housing (DGM, DLG III)Slope Test Insert the sensor into the DLG III or DGM in-line probe housing, if not already done. Take a water sample for DPD-measurement. Sampling location has to be close to the installedsensor. Recommendation: use the sampling tap in the case of the DGM in-line probe housing. Determine total chlorine content with an appropriate chlorine measurement kit according tothe DPD-4 method (e.g. Photometer DT1, order no. 1003473). Input the measured value into the controller according to it‘s operating manual( DULCOMETER ® D1C, chlorine Operating Instructions: Chapter 8, complete operating menu,settings menu “Calibrating chlorine” After initial installation of the sensor, check the calibration by DPD-measurement 24 hours later.

pH/ChlorineCalibration of the Chlorine Sensor (Continuation)The calibration (slope calibration) of the chlorine sensor uses the DPD method. When startingcali bra tion, the frozen measuring value is proposed; this value may be adjusted to the measuredDPD value using the Up and Down buttons. A calibration will only be possible if theDPD value is ≥ 2% of the measuring range. During calibration, control function and metering aremaintained. After successful calibration, all fault determinations relating to the measuring valueare started again.With a measuring range adjusted to 0 - 0.5 ppm, the zero point may be calibrated in the entireoperating menu in addition to the slope. The zero point calibration should be performed underrealistic condition with chlorine-free water. In this case, control will be stopped and metering willbe reduced to the set base load.The output 0/4...20 mA (measuring value) will be frozen.IMPORTANTThe measuring range of the chlorine sensor must correspond to the adjusted measuringrange of the DULCOMETER ® D2C (factory setting 0 - 2.00 ppm). A possible alteration of themeasuring range must be done prior to calibration. If the measuring range is altered, allsettings are reset to the factory settings.calibration Cl 2DPD-value0.45 ppmcalibration Cl 2DPD-value:0.45 ppmcalibration Cl 2zero p.: 4.00 mAslope:6.00 mA/ppmonly with measuringrange 0,5 ppmcalibration Cl 2zero point:0.45 ppmcalibration Cl 2zero pointvalue take over?4.01 mAcalibration Cl 2zero p.: 4.00 mAslope:6 mA/ppmcalibrationend?D2C2-pH-CI-T3-DPossible valuesInitial value Increment Lower value Upper value RemarksDPD-value Measured value 0.01 ppm 0 ppm 20 ppmZero point Measured value – – –(mA)Error message Condition RemarksCalibration Cl not possible!

The reading should reach or exceed this value within not more than 30 seconds.If the reading rises rather sluggishly or falls short more than 20 mV, clean the sensor and repeatcheck. If again unsuccessful, replace the sensor with a new one.pH SensorSince pH sensors are subject to certain manufacturing tolerances, they must be tuned to thepertinent pH transmitter. The adjustment intervals depend on relevant operating conditions.

Otherwise the sensor will not work correctly. If this is the case,replace membrane cap or return for refurbishing the electrodes.• <strong>Pr</strong>otect yourself and your clothing from contact with the electrolyte (acid!) using ap propriate protective equipment. The electrolyte can cause irritation to skin and damage toclothing. In case of contact, rinse immediately with plenty of cold water.NOTECarry out the following steps at the washbasin! Open the electrolyte bottle and screw on the nozzle. Remove the red cap completely from the nozzle and cut off the end of the nozzle. Remove the membrane cap and unscrew the membrane cap from the electrode shaft. Rinse the membrane cap and the electrode with a small amount of electrolyte. Fill the membrane cap up the top with electrolyte and allow electrolyte to overflow down theinside wall.Assembling membrane cap Locate the electrode shaft vertically onto the filled membrane cap and turn until the threadbites. Rotate the membrane cap so that the vent hole is at the top. Slowly screw on the membrane cap by hand up to the stop. In the process the excesselec tro lyte will seep out of the vent hole. Rinse sensor under running water to remove excess electrolyte from the sensor and fromhands.Inserting the sensorIMPORTANT• The sensor must be slowly inserted into or withdrawn from the in-line probe housing!The diaphragm could otherwise be damaged.• Do not touch the in-line probe housing flow resistor with the membrane!• The sensor must be kept wet at all times once commissioned - e.g. the in-line probehousing must not be allowed to run dry.Assemble the sensor as described in the operating instructions supplied with the in-line probehousing.AssemblyDULCOTEST ® Sensor PHEP or PHER for pHBefore putting into operation, the protective cap or case must be removed from the glass ormetal electrode. The glass or metal electrode must be free from oil, grease and other contaminations.Likewise, the membrane of the reference electrode must be free from scale deposits, dirtor crystallized matter. For these reasons, electrodes should never be touched by hand.Remove the blanking plug of the respective measuring module at the fittings of the measuring/control station DULCOTROL ® and install the DULCOTEST ® PHEP or PHER sensor for pH.<strong>Pr</strong>o<strong>Minent</strong> ® Page 177

All other elements mustbe isolated! The controller must be isolated both from the sensor and from the supplyvoltage!• The supply voltage must not fall below 16 V DC, even for a short period! The currentsource must able to sustain 35 mA at a min. 16 V DC! Insufficient supply voltage willresult in an inaccurate reading!• After the electrical connection of the sensor, the sensor has to be inserted into thesample water which has to contain chlorine dioxide.The sensor incorporates a passive 4-20 mA two-wire interface, i.e. the power supply is providedexternally e.g. via the controller.• Safety requirements are automatically met if the sensor is connected to a <strong>Pr</strong>o<strong>Minent</strong> ® controller(e.g. DULCOMETER ® D1C).• Do not switch off the measuring system when in intermittent use!If necessary, dosing equipment should be timer-controlled!Electrical Installation Rotate the sensor adapter anticlockwise by 90 º and remove (bayonet fitting). Unscrew the PG-7 threaded connector tensioning screw and insert the signal cable leadingfrom the controller. Strip the ends of the cable and attach to the two-wire connector: 1 = positive, 2 = negative Insert approx. 5 cm of signal cable into the sensor and tighten the PG-7 threaded connectortensioning screw.

For testing drinking water, calibration of the sensor every 3 - 4 weeks is sufficient.• Avoid incorrect dosing due to air bubbles in the water. Air bubbles clinging to the sensordiaphragm can reduce the measured variable and thereby lead to overdosing.• Observe applicable national directives for calibration intervals!<strong>Pr</strong>econditions • Constant flow to the in-line probe housing.• Constant sample water temperature.• Same sample water and sensor temperatures (wait approx. 15 min.).Zero Point CalibrationIf a <strong>Pr</strong>o<strong>Minent</strong> controller is being used to operate the sensor there is no need for zero pointcalibration. Zero point calibration should be carried out, however, if operating the sensor in thelower measurement range, or if using the 0.5 ppm variant.<strong>Pr</strong>econditions • The sensor has been run in.• Flow to the in-line probe housing is constant and complies with technical data. Insert the sensor into a container of clean, ozone- and ClO 2-free water. Stir with the sensor until the measured variable displayed at the controller has remained stablefor 5 min. Calibrate the controller to zero in accordance with the operating instructions. Replace sensor into the in-line probe housing (DGM; DLG).<strong>Pr</strong>o<strong>Minent</strong> ® Page 179
pH/Chlorine DioxideSlope Test Determine the chlorine dioxide content in the sample water using an appropriate measurementdevice (e.g. DPD-1). Set the resulting value at the controller in accordance with the operating instructions.Repeat calibration after 1 day!NOTECalibration at high temperaturesAs chlorine dioxide, in contrast to chlorine, is only physically dissolved in water, it evaporatesout of the liquid very quickly at high temperatures (> 30 °C). We therefore recommendthat you act quickly when carrying out the DPD measurement. There should be nomore than 1 min. between the sample extraction and the addition of reagents. Thereforethe reagent should be added directly at the sample extraction point and measurementshould follow as soon as possible afterwards in the laboratory.CalibrationCalibration of the DULCOTEST ® Sensor PHEP or PHER for pHpH SensorSince pH sensors are subject to certain manufacturing tolerances, they must be tuned to thepertinent pH transmitter.

Avoid contact of the electrolyte with skin and eyes.Otherwise wash with a lot of water. In case of eye inflammation, contact a doctor.IMPORTANT• Do not touch or damage the membrane or electrodes.• The electrolyte is sensitive to oxidation: always keep the electrolyte bottle closed afteruse. Do not transfer the electrolyte into other containers.• The electrolyte should not be stored for more than 1 year and should not yellow (use bydate, see label).• As far as possible avoid forming air bubbles when pouring the electrolyte into themembrane cap.• The membrane cap must be used once only.NOTE• Store the electrolyte bottle upside down in order that the viscous electrolyte can bepoured easily and bubble free into the membrane cap.• Smaller bubbles will not interfere, larger bubbles leave the electrolyte by rising to thesurface.Pouring electrolyte Open the electrolyte bottle and unscrew the nozzle. Squeeze out excess air. Fill the membrane cap with electrolyte, avoiding air bubbles as far as possible: Place theelectrolyte bottle completely onto the membrane cap. Slowly squeeze the electrolyte out ofthe bottle in one steady stream, while continuously retracting the bottle. The cap is completelyfull when the electrolyte reaches the lower edge of the thread.Page 196<strong>Pr</strong>o<strong>Minent</strong> ®
BromineAssembling membrane cap Place the electrode shaft vertically onto the filled membrane cap. Do not cover the vent hole below the rubber seal with your fingers. Screw on the membrane cap by hand as far as possible. There should not be a visible gapbetween the electrode shaft and membrane cap. When you screw on the cap, excess electrolytewill leak out through the hole below the rubber seal. Wipe away any electrolyte with a soft paper tissue or similar. Rinse the nozzle thoroughly with a clean, warm water jet so that no electrolyte remains on theinside and outside of the nozzle.Assembling sensorIMPORTANT• Depressurise the system before inserting the sensor into the in-line probe housing.Close the stop valves before and after the in-line probe housing.• Insertion and withdrawal of the sensor into or out of the in-line probe housing should becarried out slowly.• Do not exceed the maximum operating pressure of 1 bar.• Do not allow the flow to fall below the minimum rate of 30 l/h. Monitor the flow with theconnected measuring device/controller. If the sensor‘s signal is used for controlling,switch off the controller or adjust it to constant load when the flow rate falls below thelower limit.• Avoid installations which allow air bubbles to enter the sample water.Air bubbles clinging to the sensor membrane can lower the resultant measured valueand cause incorrect dosing within the control system.Fitting the sensor inthe in-line probe housing Note also the instructions and safety guidelines in the operating instructions of the in-line probehousing.DLG III Slide the O-ring from below over the sensor up to the clamping ring. Insert the sensor into the DLG III. Fix the sensor tightly by screwing in the plug.DGM Slide the O-ring from below over the sensor up to the clamping ring. Leave a flat washer insidethe DGM. Insert the sensor in the DGM and screw on the plug until the O-ring seals. The clamping ringdetermines the installation depth of the sensor.8.19.2.2 DULCOTEST ® BRE Sensor for Bromine BRE 1-mA-10 ppm,BRE 1-mA-2 ppm, BRE 2-mA-10 ppm, Electrical InstallationGeneral Safety GuidelinesIMPORTANTInstall in such as way as to ensure a totally reliable, uninterrupted power supply to thecontroller. Too low a voltage supply can cause measuring failures, which may result indangerous overdosing within a control system.The BRE sensor has a passive 4-20 mA two-wire interface. The power supply is providedexternally or by the controller. When the sensor is connected to the DULCOMETER ® D1Ccontroller the interface’s safety require ments are met automatically.IMPORTANTFor electrical connection of the sensor to the controller, only use wires with a diameter of4 mm.<strong>Pr</strong>o<strong>Minent</strong> ® Page 197
BromineElectrical Installation Turn the top part of the sensor a quarter of a turn anticlockwise and remove. Remove the outer isolation of the cable for about 5 cm from the end so that the two wiresappear. Loosen the M12 threaded connector and guide the 2-wire cable into the sensor. Leave anapprox. 5 cm length of the 2-core measuring line in the sensor. Strip the two wires at their ends and connect them to the terminal block (see figure) by usingthe screwdriver provided: 1 = plus, 2 = minus. Tighten up the M12 connector. Insert the top part of the sensor right into the housing and turn the top part clockwise as far asit will go.Electrical connectionto sensor5 cm1 2CommissioningCAUTION• The power supply to the measuring device and to the sensor must not be interrupted.If the power supply is interrupted (> 2 hours) the sensor must be re-commis sioned.• Do not switch off the measuring device during intermittent operation. Dosing devicesmay be controlled by timer switches.However, if no disinfectant is metered over a longer period of time (weeks), the sensormust be disconnected from the system and stored dry.• The sensor’s current signal must not exceed 20 mA. Otherwise the sensor may bedamaged, which may result in dangerous overdosing within a control system. To avoidthis, install a monitor, which permanently switches off the bromine control system andtriggers an alarm. The monitoring equipment must not be automatically re-setting.• Once the sensor has been commissioned it must be kept permanently wet.After completed installation the controller can be switched on. The system should then beallowed to run in for the set run-in period.8.19.2.3 DULCOTEST ® BRE Sensor for Bromine BRE 1-mA-10 ppm,BRE 1-mA-2 ppm, BRE 2-mA-10 ppm, Running-InRunning-In PeriodIn order to achieve a stable display value the sensor should be run in for the following run inperiods:First commissioning: 24 hourAfter changing membrane: 1-6 hRe-commissioning:approx. 4-24 hoursPage 198<strong>Pr</strong>o<strong>Minent</strong> ®
Bromine8.19.2.4 DULCOTEST ® BRE Sensor for Bromine BRE 1-mA-10 ppm,BRE 1-mA-2 ppm, BRE 2-mA-10 ppm, CalibrationCalibrationIMPORTANTThe specified calibration method depending on the type of bromination agent used mustbe observed.CAUTION• Carry out a slope test every time the membrane or electrolyte is changed.• Avoid air-bubbles in the sample flow. They can attach at the sensor membrane, whichmay cause too low measured values. Within a control system this may lead to dangerousover dosing.• For proper function of the sensor, the slope test has to be repeated regularly.• If bromine is measured as chlorine with a DPD set, make sure that you convert thevalues into bromine.• If installing the sensor outside Germany, please comply with the local regulations forcalibration intervals.<strong>Pr</strong>econditions The sensor reading is stable (no drifts or unsteady values for at least 5 minutes). This is normallyfulfilled, when• The system has been allowed to run-in for the specified period• The flow through the in-line probe housing is constant and corresponds with the technicaldata• The sample medium and the sensor are at the same temperature• The pH value is constant and within the admissible range (pH 6.5 - 9.5)Zero Point CalibrationZero point calibration is necessary only when the sensor is used at the lower limit of themeasuring range. Remove the sensor from the DLG III or DGM in-line probe housing (see DLG III, DGMoperating instructions). Immerse the sensor in a container with clean water, free of chlorine and bromine. Stir by using the sensor, until the measured value remains stable. Adjust the controller (DULCOMETER ® D1C, Bromine) to zero, according to it‘s operatinginstructions manual (DULCOMETER ® D1C, Bromine Operating Instructions: Chapter 8,complete operating menu, settings menu “Calibrating bromine zero point”). Reinstall the sensor into the in-line-probe-housing (DGM, DLG III).Slope Test Insert the sensor into the DLG III or DGM in-line probe housing, if not already done. Take a water sample for DPD-measurement. Sampling location has to be close to the installedsensor. Recommendation: use the sampling tap in the case of the DGM in-line probe housing Determine the bromine content with a suitable DPD-Method ( e.g. DPD). DPD 4 is especiallyrecommended, when organically bound bromine like BDCMH (1-Br, 3-Cl-5,5 dimethylehydantoine)is present. In case of high and constant ratios of free bromine (HOBr), the DPD 1method is also suitable.<strong>Pr</strong>o<strong>Minent</strong> ® Page 199

BromineCalibration of the Bromine SensorDuring the calibration the DULCOMETER ® D1C switches the control outputs to “0”. Exception:where a basic load or a manual control variable has been entered it is retained throughout thecalibration.The standard mA signal outputs (measured value or correction value) are frozen. The frozenmeasured value from the start of the calibration is suggested as the DPD value. The DPD valuesare variable (arrow keys). Calibration is possible only when the DPD value is ≥ 2 % of themeasurement range.If the calibration is successful all fault-finding operations relating to the measured value startafresh.In the limited-access operating menu: the DULCOMETER ® D1C saves the detected slope values.In the full operating menu: the DULCOMETER ® D1C saves the detected slope and zero pointvalues.The zero point calibration must be carried out under real conditions in bromide-free water.

Chlorine Dioxide Sensor CDP8.20.2 DULCOTEST ® CDP Chlorine Dioxide Sensor, Commissioning8.20.2.1 DULCOTEST ® CDP Chlorine Dioxide Sensor, AssemblyAssemblyPouring electrolyteIMPORTANT• The membrane at the lower end of the membrane cap and the electrodes at the lowerend of the electrode shaft should not be touched, damaged or brought into contact withgreasy substances! Otherwise the sensor will not work correctly. If this is the case,replace membrane cap or return the sensor for cleaning the electrodes.• The gel electrolyte is not toxic and can be easily removed from skin/clothing with water.NOTECarry out the following steps at the washbasin! Open the electrolyte bottle and screw on the nozzle. Remove the red cap completely from the nozzle and cut off the end of the nozzle. Remove the membrane cap and unscrew the membrane cap from the electrode shaft. Place the spout of the electrolyte bottle vertically on the lower edge at the inside of themembrane cap without touching the membrane. Fill the membrane cap with electrolyte uninterruptedly up to the start of the thread; remove thespout in doing so, but it must always stay in the electrolyte. Only a few, very small bubblesmay form. Check whether the membrane is completely wetted – the previously white membrane be comesdark. If required, wait some time. If not successful, repeat the filling.Assembling membrane cap Locate the electrode shaft vertically onto the filled membrane cap and turn until the threadbites. Turn the electrode shaft such that the small hole below the hose gasket is pointed to the top. Slowly screw in the membrane cap by hand up to the stop (do not touch the hose gasket).The membrane may not bulge caused by the internal pressure because otherwise it becomesunusable! The excessive electrolyte flows out through the small hole below the hose gasketwhen screwing together the parts. Thoroughly rinse the leaked electrolyte from the sensor and your fingers ander running water.Assembling sensorIMPORTANT• The sensor must be slowly inserted into or withdrawn from the in-line probe housing!The membrane could otherwise be damaged.• Do not touch the in-line probe housing flow resistor with the membrane!• The sensor must be kept wet at all times once commissioned - e.g. the in-line probehousing must not be allowed to run dry.Assemble the sensor as described in the operating instructions supplied with the in-line probehousing.<strong>Pr</strong>o<strong>Minent</strong> ® Page 209
Chlorine Dioxide Sensor CDPElectrical connectionto sensor8.20.2.2 DULCOTEST ® CDP Chlorine Dioxide Sensor, InstallationIMPORTANT• The sensor is not electrically isolated from the sample water. All other elements must beisolated! The controller must be isolated both from the sensor and from the supplyvoltage!• The supply voltage must not fall below 16 V DC, even for a short period! The currentsource must able to sustain 35 mA at a min. 16 V DC! Insufficient supply voltage willresult in an inaccurate reading!• After the electrical connection of the sensor, the sensor has to be inserted into thesample water which has to contain chlorine dioxide.The sensor incorporates a passive 4-20 mA two-wire interface, i.e. the power supply is providedexternally e.g. via the controller.• Safety requirements are automatically met if the sensor is connected to a <strong>Pr</strong>o<strong>Minent</strong> ® con troller(e.g. DULCOMETER ® D1C).• Do not switch off the measuring system when in intermittent use! If necessary, dosing equipmentshould be timer-controlled!Electrical Installation Rotate the sensor adapter anticlockwise by 90 ºC and remove (bayonet fitting). Unscrew the PG-7 threaded connector tensioning screw and insert the signal cable leadingfrom the controller. Strip the ends of the cable and attach to the two-wire connector:1 = positive, 2 = negative Insert approx. 5 cm of signal cable into the sensor and tighten the PG-7 threaded connectortensioning screw. Insert the sensor adapter completely into the housing and screw together carefully to preventdamage to the ends of the bayonet connector.5 cm1 28.20.2.3 DULCOTEST ® CDP Chlorine Dioxide Sensor, Running-InIMPORTANTDo not switch off the measuring system during interval operation!After operation without chlorine dioxide, running-in periods are to be reckoned with.If required, switch on metering unit time-delayed!If no chlorine dioxide is metered for a longer period of time, the sensor must be disconnectedfrom the power supply and stored dry.Running-In PeriodThe sensor requires a run-in period before it will display stable readings.Commissioning:4 - 12 hRe-commissioning:2 - 4 hMembrane-/electrolyte replacement: approx. 1 hPage 210<strong>Pr</strong>o<strong>Minent</strong> ®
Chlorine Dioxide Sensor CDP8.20.2.4 DULCOTEST ® CDP Chlorine Dioxide Sensor, CalibrationCalibrationThe sensor can be calibrated after the run-in period.IMPORTANT• A slope test must be carried out after replacing the diaphragm cap or electrolyte!• Slope tests must be carried out at regular intervals to ensure correct functioning of thesensor! For testing drinking water, calibration of the sensor every 3 - 4 weeks is suf ficient.• Avoid incorrect dosing due to air bubbles in the water. Air bubbles clinging to the sensordiaphragm can reduce the measured variable and thereby lead to overdosing.• Observe applicable national directives for calibration intervals!<strong>Pr</strong>econditions • The sensor is run-in• Constant flow to the in-line probe housing• Constant sample water temperature• Same sample water and sensor temperatures (wait approx. 15 min.)Zero Point CalibrationIf a <strong>Pr</strong>o<strong>Minent</strong> controller is being used to operate the sensor there is no need for zero pointcalibration. Zero point calibration should be carried out, however, if operating the sensor in thelower measurement range.<strong>Pr</strong>econditions Insert the sensor into a container of clean, ozone-, chlorine and ClO 2-free water. Stir with the sensor until the measured variable displayed at the controller has remained stablefor 5 min. Calibrate the controller to zero in accordance with the operating instructions. Replace sensor into the in-line probe housing (DGM; DLG).Slope Test Determine the chlorine dioxide content in the sample water using an appropriate measurementdevice (e.g. DPD-1). Set the resulting value at the controller in accordance with the operating instructions.Repeat calibration after 1 day!NOTECalibration at high temperaturesAs chlorine dioxide, in contrast to chlorine, is only physically dissolved in water, it evap o-rates out of the liquid very quickly at high temperatures (> 30 °C). We therefore rec ommendthat you act quickly when carrying out the DPD measurement. There should be nomore than 1 min. between the sample extraction and the addition of reagents. Thereforethe reagent should be added directly at the sample extraction point and measurementshould follow as soon as possible afterwards in the laboratory.<strong>Pr</strong>o<strong>Minent</strong> ® Page 211

Chlorine Dioxide Sensor CDP8.20.4 DULCOMETER ® D1C Measured Variable Chlordioxid andDULCOTEST ® CDP Chlorine Dioxide Sensor, MaintenanceThe DULCOMETER ® controller type D1C for the measured variable chlorine dioxide ismaintenance-free.SensorIMPORTANT The sensor must be regularly serviced in order to avoid overdosing due to sensor failure! Observe applicable national directives for servicing intervals! Do not touch the electrodes or bring them into contact with greasy substances!Maintenance interval Daily/weekly servicing intervals depending upon application.Maintenance Work Check the sensor display value at the controller using an appropriate chlorine dioxidemeasuring system (e.g. DPD-1). Recalibrate the sensor if necessary.Cleaning the MembraneIf the membrane is dirty and is preventing calibration of the sensor you can try to clean themembrane gently.First dismantle the sensor as described in the sensor dismantling section. Observe safetyguidelines! Removal of surface contamination. Rinse the membrane under a gentle stream of cold water.IMPORTANT• Never try to clean the membrane with acids/alkalis or mechanical means (brush orsimilar).• If the sensor cannot be calibrated after membrane cleaning, the membrane cap has tobe replaced by a new one.Replacing the MembraneIf calibration is no longer possible after cleaning the membrane, or if the membrane is damaged itmust be replaced.At first, the old membrane cap is removed and the gel adhering to the electrodes is rinsed offander running water as best as possible. Remainders of the gel can be removed using a softpaper tissue. Wipe carefully across the sensor, in particular the reference system (brown ring).Then, fill a new membrane cap with gel electrolyte and screw it on (see “Mounting”).<strong>Pr</strong>o<strong>Minent</strong> ® Page 215
