1.0 Safety
2.0 Overview
This instrument has been specifically designed for TRO measurement
and to operate in hazardous atmospheres meeting the IECEx and ATEX
ratings as stated in the specifications. The instrument uses an IECEx
approved purge/ pressurization controller called the Air Sentinel II.
Please refer to the companion manual Cat. No. 100038B for all
information on:
• Operation of the Air Sentinel II
• Electrical Power Connections
• Purge Air Connection
Figure 1 - Instrument Overview
This instrument is sectioned such that all the electrical or powered
devices are in the upper, purged section of the enclosure, while
the lower (wetted parts) section contains no power at all and can
be operated and maintained in a safe condition even with the main
enclosure door open. Refer to Figure 2.
The SSR-Ex has been designed to meet the design criteria specified
by Standard Methods for the Examination of Water and Wastewater
(21th Edition) Method 4500-Cl G. DPD Colorimetric Method.
The SSR-Ex uses a 515nm LED as the measurement light source.
Every effort has been made to ensure the accuracy of this manual. Due
