    (Pt1000Ω) incorporated in the counter electrode. Figure 1.5 shows the block diagram for the FC500G free available chlorine analyzer (non- reagent type) operation. The analyzer determines the free available chlorine concentration by applying an applied voltage corresponding to the diffusion current between the indicator and counter electrodes and by applying temperature compensation to the diffusion current.

    3.2.2 Air Purge Piping Make the air purge piping only when the FC500G-5 free available chlorine analyzer is used. The air purge piping connecting port (1/8 NPT female) is located at the electrode assembly. Exercise care in piping because the electrode assembly must be removed in implementing inspection or maintenance (see Figure 3.2).

OPERATION> Start-Up 4.2.1 Supplying Sample Water <Sample inlet valve is not provided> Confirm that the sample water pressure is within the range of 1 to 30 kPa and supply sample water at the flow rate of 0.1 to 2.5 l/min. After supplying sample water, confirm that the sample water level does not contact the top of the measuring tank.

  • Page 26: Calibration

    <5. CALIBRATION> CALIBRATION Perform zero and span calibration when the analyzer is to be initially started up and also when re-operated after prolonged shutdown. During operation, perform span calibration periodically (approx. once a month). When span is to be calibrated, first polish the indicator electrode (see subsection 6.1.1) and then perform running- in operation for approx.
  • Page 27: Span Calibration

    <5. CALIBRATION> Span Calibration There are two span Calibration methods: “sampling method’’ using which calibration is performed based on the manually analyzed free available chlorine concentration of sample water, and the “standard solution method” which allows calibration using a standard calibration solution having a free available chlorine concentration of approximately 80 % of the measuring range.

    The following is the replacement procedure: However, in principle, replacement should be entrusted to Yokogawa service personnel. (1) Turn OFF the converter power switch. (2) Remove the electrode assembly cover. Remove the brush. The brush is secured using two securing screws (one of them also serves for the wiring terminal).

Note: If the belt is replaced, perform the procedure described in the following steps (6) and (7) without fail. (6) Loosen the four mounting screws of the (acrylic) holder that secures the rotating shaft. Set a spring balance to the hole under the rotating shaft slip ring and pull the shaft in the direction of applying tension to the belt.
