Ideal for Metal Processes, Electroplating, Wiring Production, Electronic Devices & More
Anaheim, CA—June 24, 2019—With its adjustable cycle time that minimizes costly reagent use and low maintenance, process engineers tasked with treating industrial wastewater containing copper (Cu) will find the precision CA-6Colorimetric Copper Analyzer from Electro-Chemical Devices (ECD) helps them protect valuable water resources.
ECD’s CA-6 Copper Analyzer is an on-line sequential sampling analyzer. It automatically performs a controlled sequence of sampling, analysis and then results processing is performed and repeated using colorimetric methods. The colorimetric method of water analysis relies on an LED light source and a heated colorimetric cell, which has been designed for measuring trace amounts of Cu in water.
The CA-6 Colorimetric Analyzer measures Cu using the differential photometric absorbance bathocuproine method. The copper (I) ions form an orange-colored complex with the bathocuproine in a buffered solution at pH 4,5. Any copper (II) ions present in the water sample are previously reduced to copper (I) ions before the complex is formed. The absorbance intensity is proportional to the silica concentration in the sample and is determined at 470 nm.
The versatile CA-6 Colorimetric Analyzer can be configured to measure copper or a wide range of other substances with a choice of multiple parameters: ppb, ppm and mg/L. It measures copper over a wide range depending on the cell size chosen–from trace levels of 0.05 to 1 mg/L (26 mm cell) 0,1 to 3 mg/L (16 mm cell) up to 150 mg/L with internal dilution. It is highly dependable too, with reproducibility also based on the cell size: (1) ±20 ppb or ±5%, whichever is greater (26 mm cell) or (2) ±50 ppb ±5%, whichever is greater (16 mm cell).
Highly efficient for a low cost of ownership, the CA-6 Colorimetric Analyzer features low reagent consumption to lower operating costs, reduce special storage and disposal costs of reagents and minimize technician maintenance labor time. The CA-6 consumes only 1L (0.26 US gal) R1, R2 and 2L (0.53 US gal) R3 for the 16 mm cell /2L (0.53 US gal) R1, R2 and 4L (1.06 US gal) R3 for the 26 mm cell of each reagent every 30 days with 15 minute analysis frequency.
The CA-6 Colorimetric Analyzer is equipped with a graphic touchscreen interface showing measured values and status information. It provides users with easy access to menus and functions in multiple languages. There is an integrated data logger onboard with USB download capability for history tracking.
Outputs provided with the CA-6 Analyzer include two 4-20 mA outputs for measured data, and it also includes a Modbus compatible RS485 RTU. Four programmable SPDT relays are available to provide alarm capability.
The CA-6 Colorimetric Analyzers is designed with two compartments that separate critical electronics from the wet process. The standard model is recommended for indoor use and rated NEMA IP54 for dust and water ingress. The operating temperature range of the CA-6 Analyzer is 41 to 113 °F (5 to 45 °C).
The manufacture of electrical wiring, electronic devices and components, metals plating and processing, motors, sensors and even performance fabrics are some of the many industrial uses of copper (Cu). There are several processes available to remove heavy metals such as Cu from wastewater, which involve technologies such as adsorption, anaerobic treatment, membrane filtration, cementation and electro-dialysis.
All of the copper abatement processes have one thing in common—they require the accurate measurement of Cu before effluent discharge into the water system. The treatment of Cu in wastewater is complicated by the fact that Cu is both necessary to the normal functioning of the human body at the right levels and also is toxic to the body at higher than normal levels. For this reason, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has set a Cu maximum contaminant level (MCL) of 1.3 mg/L. The symptoms of over-exposure to Cu in water can include severe nausea, vomiting, gastrointestinal issues, muscle pain, anemia, liver or kidney failure and even death.

Anaheim, CA—January 26, 2018—Engineers and laboratory technicians responsible for maintaining alkaline and pH levels in balance to support a wide range of municipal and industrial water-based processes will find the new IoT web-enabled CA900 Titration Analyzer from Electro-Chemical Devices (ECD) automates the process of routine alkalinity measurement with a simple, accurate and cost-effective approach.
Maintaining water quality with the proper balance of pH and alkalinity levels is essential in many different processes—everything from drinking water to wastewater processes, as well as in irrigation water, water-based beverages and pharmaceuticals, electronics manufacturing and more. Alkalinity is a measure of the capacity of water to neutralize acids and affects pH levels in water. It occurs naturally in groundwater and its levels are influenced by rocks and soils, salts, certain plant activities and in some cases by industrial wastewater discharges.
ECD’sadvanced CA900 Titration Analyzer for alkalinity measurement is so easy to install and start up that a technician can do it in less than 15 minutes.All that is necessary is to perform simple connections of the sample,waste and reagent lines and then power up the factory pre-calibrated analyzer.Wall mounting hardware comes standard with each analyzer, but an optional bench top stand with reagent holder also is available.
Four different ECD factory pre-set alkalinity calibration ranges are available for the CA900 Titration Analyzer: 0 to 50ppm, 50 to 200 ppm, 200-1000 ppm, a 0 to>1000ppm. Users simply order the desired calibration range, and the analyzer comes ready to go right out of the box.The analyzer’s full-featured design also comeswithfour4-20analogoutputs, an Ethernetdigitaloutputand four user-configurable alarm relays.
Accessing information or customizing analysis routines are both easily accomplished.
ECD’s CA900 Titration Analyzer for Alkalinity
With the CA900 Titration Analyzer’suser-friendly menu structure and touchscreen interface.The analyzer also can be web-enabled as a powerful internet of things (IoT) tool for remote monitoring and interfacing with personal handheld devices such as controllers, mobile phones, tablets, laptops, and computers.
To determine and maintain water quality, accurately measuring the alkalinity of the water is critical to assess its relationship and impact on pH levels. Titration analysis with the CA900 Analyzer calculates alkalinity by dispensing known doses of a titrant fluid into a reaction cell while monitoring the pH level to its end point. The analyzer then uses the titrant concentration and amount dispensed to calculate the level of alkalinity measurement.
The CA900 Titration Analyzer typically performs a single alkalinity measurement per analysis cycle. Its standard program sequence consists of a cleaning cycle, sample acquisition, monitoring of pH, the addition of the titrant fluid, mixing the fluid, calculation of results and data storage. The desired frequency of analysis between cycles can be easily modified to the requirements of the user’s process.
The versatile CA900 Titration analyzer is designed with up to four different sample lines that can be connected to the analyzer. Numerous analysis configurations can be easily set up and programmed depending on the specific process control application and/or environmental or other compliance requirements.
Measuring alkalinity levels with ECD’s CA900 Titration Analyzer is especially important for the effective treatment of both municipal drinking water and wastewater, where it can affect the wastewater anaerobic digestion process.Alkalinity in surface water generally results from the presence of calcium carbonate, CaCO3, which has been leached from rocks and soil and then enters surface or groundwater systems.
