  • Page 14: Post-Installation Check

    When using metallic assemblies and installation equipment, comply with national grounding regulations. If the OUSAF44 is ordered with the OUA260, it will be shipped mounted to the flow assembly and is ready for commissioning. Otherwise, for sensor installation, proceed as follows: Install the flow assembly OUA260 via the process connections into the process.
  • Page 15: Wiring

    ► Prior to beginning any wiring work, make sure voltage is not applied to any of the cables. Electrical connection The OUSAF44 sensor is connected to the transmitter via the pre-terminated and labeled cable set OUK40 (to be ordered separately).

  • Page 17: Measuring Principle

    OUSAF44 Function Measuring principle Absorption light method The measuring principle is based on the Lambert-Beer law. There is a linear dependency between the light absorption and the concentration of the absorbing substance. A light source emits radiation through the medium and the transmitted radiation is measured on the detector side.
  • Page 18: Calibration

    OUSAF44 Calibration Calibration is a means of adapting the transmitter to the characteristic values of the sensor. OUSAF44 has been factory-calibrated, therefore, when first commissioning no calibration is necessary. There are two different calibration procedures: Liquid calibration and Easycal™. Before calibrating, the unit has to be powered up for at least 30 minutes.
  • Page 19 Function 5.4.2 Easycal™ set up and calibration All OUSAF44 sensors can be fitted with the optional Easycal™ calibration system. The Easycal™ allows NIST traceable calibration without using liquid standards and guarantees fast and precise calibration of the UV system. This option is available in new systems and as a retrofit item for existing units in the field.
  • Page 20: Optical Check

    The reference rod screws into the detector housing of the sensor, providing partial blockage of the sensor light and therefore simulating absorbance in the optical chain. The cross-sectional view of an OUSAF44 measurement detector shown below illustrates the placement and the blocking effect that the reference rod has to the sensor's detector.

    OUSAF44 Maintenance Sensor window and gasket replacement Sensor optical pathlength is established by the window type(s) of the flow assembly. Windows must be replaced with the same type to maintain pathlength. The illustration below is a typical flow assembly. See figure 22 for the available window types and possible pathlengths for sensors up to 2"...

    Re-assemble the sensor in the reverse order, taking care to cross-tighten the window retaining ring screws evenly to prevent uneven seating. After every re-assembly of an OUSAF44 sensor, it is necessary to carry out a liquid or Easycal™ calibration.
  • Page 31 OUSAF44 Maintenance Inspect the window area and clean as necessary. Inspect the windows for any signs of abrasive wear or chipping. If any is apparent, replace the windows. Assemble window actuators into window rings, adjusting to their widest position (rotated all the way into the window ring).
