Installation
DANGER
This instrument should be installed by qualified technical personnel to ensure
adherence to all applicable electrical and plumbing codes.
4.1 Environmental Considerations
The instrument controller is designed for IP65, indoor/outdoor installation with an
ambient temperature between 5 to 45 °C (41 to 113 °F). Do not mount the
instrument in direct sunlight; shield from dripping water.
4.2 General Installation Considerations
Important Note:
The gravity drain forces the fumes from the conditioning solution into the
air. Failure to provide a gravity drain can create a health hazard.
•
Place the analyzer in an accessible location.
•
Make the sample supply line as short as possible.
•
Ensure that there is no air intrusion into the sample supply line.
•
There
must be
a gravity drain.
4.3 Mounting the Instrument
DANGER
This analyzer is intended to be
used for water samples only.
Dimensions are given in millimeters and inches (see
4.3.1
Attaching the Conditioning Bottle
CAUTION
To familiarize yourself with
handling precautions, dangers
and emergency procedures,
always review the Material Safety
Data Sheets prior to handling
containers, reservoirs, and
delivery systems that contain
chemical reagents and standards.
Protective eye wear is always
recommended when contact with
chemicals is possible.
1.
Fill the Conditioning bottle with diisopropylamine (Cat. No. 2834453).
Note:
The bottle that the DIPA comes in can be directly connected to the diffuser cap,
therefore decanting may not be necessary.
2.
Insert the diffuser tube into the bottle and screw the bottle cap onto the bottle.
3.
Place the Conditioning bottle into the basket as shown in
4.
Connect one end of the J-shaped ¼ in. tubing to the bottle cap. Connect the
other end to the Measuring Cell as shown in
Note:
Prior to adding conditioner, it is important to ensure a gravity drain is installed to
prevent back pressure that would cause the creation of amine fumes in the area.
Note:
The reagent will last for 1–3 months. Make sure that the reagent (Monoethylamine,
diethylamine, or ammonia) levels remain above the indicator line shown on the
mounting panel. Other amines require periodic pH check to determine if 10.2 or higher
is maintained.
