Self-Cleaning, Low-Maintenance ISE Analyzer System
Monitoring For Municipal and Industrial Water and Wastewater Treatment Systems
The modular S10 Ion Selective Electrode (ISE), Compressor and Analyzer System from Electro-Chemical Devices (ECD) features the AC10 Air Blast Spray Cleaner designed for sensor self-cleaning and the highly intelligent multi-channel C22 Smart Controller. This flexible system allows process and plant engineers to maintain accurate measurement of multiple common parameters, reduces maintenance cycles and extends sensor life to decrease technician time and reduce plant operating costs.
ECD’s S10 Immersion/Insertion Style Sensor is a rugged, fully re-buildable sensor featuring a 316 stainless steel body with a sensing element, a temperature module and a signal conditioner for the process variable. Ion specific cartridges are available for the measurement of Ammonium, Bromide, Chloride, Cyanide, Fluoride, Sulfide, Calcium, Potassium and Sodium ions. The S10 Sensor with ISE cartridges is ideal for a wide range of fluid analysis applications required in industrial and municipal water treatment applications. In addition to specific ions, the S10 Sensor can also be configured for the measurement of pH, ORP, DO and Conductivity/Resistivity.
The AC10 is an Air Blast Spray Cleaner for Sensors that is available as either a single or dual channel system for use with the S10 and other ECD Sensor designs. It helps maintain sensor measurement accuracy in turbid water conditions by preventing the buildup of biofilms and other soft coatings, decreasing sensor maintenance cycles and helping to cut plant operating costs.
The AC10 Air Blast Spray Cleaner reduces sensor cleaning time and the amount of chemicals used for unnecessary water treatments performed due to inaccurate sensor readings caused by films and coatings that develop over time on the sensors. The AC10, when combined with a C22 Smart Controller and an S10 spray cleaning head uses pressurized air to generate an area of high turbulence in the water surrounding the measurement end of the sensor.
Offering a highly reliable, high current contactor that assures years of trouble free service, the AC10 Air Blast Spray Cleaner is available with either a 115 VAC 3.0 Amp or 220 VAC 1.3 Amp Air Compressor. It is housed in a rugged, corrosion resistant, fiberglass reinforced polyester enclosure. Installation options for the AC10 include wall mounting or an optional 2-inch handrail mounting system.
The multi-channel C22 Smart Controller provides simplicity in a powerful package, allowing for incredible flexibility in the selection of inputs and outputs. It features Multi-Bus Architecture that allows up to four sensor inputs, six outputs and eight relays to be configured into the C22 Controller.
The C22 Smart Controller uses its internal timers and relays to control the period and duration of the AC10 Spray Cleaner’s cleaning cycles. The period between cleaning cycles and the cleaning duration are easily adjustable in the C22’s setup menu.
