General   information

 

It   is   of   great   importance   to   read   all   parts   of   this   manual   prior   to   startup   of   the   
instrument.   If   the   Blanket   Monitor   is   not   used   and   handled   according   to   this   manual,   

then   the   life   and   functionality   may   be   jeopardized,   and   all   warranties   will   be   voided.      

Security   information   

This   instrument   should   be   used   by   qualified   and   authorized   personnel   only.   

It   is   mandatory   to   follow   all   security   and   other   routines   that   apply   at   site   when   
using   the   CBX.   

   

   Within   EU   it   is   prohibited   to   dispose   of   electric   and   electronic   waste   in   regular   waste   as   

these   may   contain   harmful   substances.   All   electric   and   electronic   waste   must   be   

sorted   and   left   for   recycling.   Such   products   are   labeled   with   an   X-­‐marked   waste   
bin.   It   is   important   that   everyone   cooperate   in   order   to   secure   a   high   level   when   
it   comes   to   recycling   and   help   to   save   our   environment.   If   such   waste   is   handled   

and   recycled   according   to   regulation   (EC   Directive   2002/96/EC)   the   environment   as   
well   as   people’s   health   may   be   jeopardized   

Description   of   the   function   

CBX   is   an   optical   suspended   solids   meter   designed   to   measure   sludge   and   fluff   blanket   
depth   in   clarifiers,   thickeners,   etc.   in   water   and   wastewater   plants,   as   well   in   other   
facilities.   It   is   possible   to   display   measured   values   as   text   or   as   a   graphic   image   of   the   

sludge   profile.      

Working   principle   

The   sensor   is   sent   down   into   the   clarifier/thickener   and   measures   the   suspended   solids   

as   it   descends   and   sends   the   data   via   a   communication   cable   to   the   BB2   control   box.   By   
submersing   the   sensor   into   the   liquid   you   are   able   to   obtain   reliable   suspended   solids   

readings   versus   depth   and   avoid   problems   from   foam   and   fluff   layers   in   the   
clarifier/thickener.      

Sensor   body   

The   sensor   body   contains   optics   and   electronics   that   should   not   be   exposed   to   
mechanical   abuse   or   high   temperatures.   If   the   sensor   body   has   mechanical   damages,   
water   may   penetrate   into   the   sensor   and   destroy   the   electronics   and   optics.   Please   see   

section   

Maintenance

   for   more   information.   

Installation      

   

It   is   important   that   installation,   maintenance   and   configuration   only   are   done   by   
authorized   personnel   to   avoid   damages   on   the   product.   .      

Unpacking   

The   unit   has   been   tested   and   approved   before   delivery   from   factory.   Please   check   to   

confirm   that   no   visible   damages   occurred   during   shipment.   Make   sure   that   all   
equipment   inside   the   cabinet   is   secure   and   that   the   sensor   and   cable   can   move   freely
