The following instructions must be adhered to and integrated into your safety program when installing, using, and maintaining Emerson products. Failure to follow the proper instructions may cause any one of the following situations to occur: loss of life, personal injury, property damage, damage to this instrument, and warranty invalidation.
VP8 cable assemblies work with both VP8 and VP6 sensor connectors. The Rosemount 389/389VP has a molded Tefzel body with Viton O-rings, making each sensor very robust and chemically resistant. Complete encapsulation eliminates leakage or high humidity problems traditionally found in other pH/ORP designs.

Reference Manual Calibration 00809-0100-3389 February 2019 Calibration Sensor preparation Procedure 1. Shake down the sensor to remove any air bubbles that may be present at the tip of the pH glass bulb. 2. In most cases, the pH sensor can simply be installed as shipped, and readings may be obtained with an accuracy of ±0.2 pH.
Quinhydrone is only slightly soluble, but only a few crystals are required. 3. Immerse the sensor in the standard solution. Allow one to two minutes for the ORP sensor to stabilize. 4. Adjust the standardized control of the transmitter to the solution value shown in Table 3-1. Rosemount 389/389VP...

Reference Manual Calibration 00809-0100-3389 February 2019 The resulting potentials, measured with a clean platinum electrode and saturated KCl/AgCL reference electrode, should be within ±20 millivolts of the value shown in Table 3-1. Note solution temperature to ensure accurate interpretation of results. The ORP value of saturated quinhydrone solution is not stable over long periods of time.
