Endura APA592

pH / Redox (ORP) transmitter

Measurement made easy

Introduction

This transmitter is intended for the following uses:

• pH measurement 
•  ORP or pION measurement 
•  Ion Concentration measurement

The APA592 transmitter is fully compatible with 
ABB’s full range of glass, antimony and redox (ORP) 
electrodes. In addition, this transmitter is 
compatible with many competitor sensor inputs. 
The APA592 has automatic temperature sensor 
recognition for both 2 and 3-wire RTD inputs for 
common inputs such as Pt100, Pt1000 and 
3k Balco.

APA592 transmitters are communication-ready 
field devices with microprocessor-controlled 
electronics. For bidirectional communication, an 
FSK signal is superimposed on the 4 to 20 mA 
output signal via the HART protocol.

The graphical user interface (DTM) can be used to 
configure, poll and test transmitters on a PC-
specific basis. Handheld terminals such as the 
DHH801 also support communication.

The transmitter is equipped with an LCD display 
used to show the current process data. The four 
keys beneath the display enable the transmitter to 
be configured locally.


Rugged design 
transmitter for 
industrial applications
