Rail-Mount Mounting
The Rail-Mount kit (Cat. No. 16088) allows the meter to be clamped to a hand
rail (that runs horizontally) or even to a pole (vertical pipe) if so desired
7). Brackets that attach to the back of the meter are in turn attached to the rail
or pole with U-bolt type pipe clamps. The brackets may be attached to the
sides (rail mount) or top and bottom (pole mount).
The chlorine probe is suitable for either submersion or flow-cell use. In
general, the flow-cell system is preferable.
Note: In either case, it is essential that a flow velocity of at least 0.5 ft./sec., but not
greater than 2.5 ft./sec., is maintained at the probe.
For submerged applications, the chlorine probe is mounted at the end of a 1"
pipe using pipe mounting kit.
assembly. Note that the pipe mounting kit does not include the pipe.
Use a flow cell for free chlorine applications in situations where a uniform flow
across the membrane cannot be assured by other means.
The flow cell assembly contains a clear flow block into which the probe is
inserted and a constant head overflow that controls the flow through the cell.
The flow cell will operate with a minimum of 8 gph and a maximum of 25 gph.
If the supply for the flow-cell is variable in pressure, as is common in potable
water systems, place a pressure regulator with an outlet pressure of 10 to
15 psi ahead of the flow-cell.
Flow assemblies are wall mounted using the bolt holes in the four corners of
the assembly plates. Recommended sample piping is shown in
probe is inserted into the flow-cells using a twist-lock arrangement. Align the
three pins in the probe with the slots in the flow-cell and press the probe down
until it can be turned slightly to engage the pins in the retaining slot. If
excessive force is required to press the probe past the sealing o-ring, remove
the o-ring and apply a small amount of silicone lubricant.
