Pigtail cable holes Analog Ground “-” (Green) With the C-FLUOR connected as shown in Figure 1 answer questions 1-3 by making the following functional tests: 1. Is the LED on? Hold a piece of white paper about ½ an inch in front of the optical head to ensure the LED is ON. -
Page 8: Measurements With The C-Fluor
Section 4.1 for information regarding maintenance. C-FLUOR Probes output a voltage signal that is proportional to the fluorophore of interest. Every C-FLUOR is factory calibrated and delivered with a certificate that contains factory calibration values for that specific probe; the certificate also contains an equation that can be used with the calibration values to convert C- FLUOR’s voltage signal to concentration estimates for the specified fluorophore... -
Page 9: Performing C-Fluor Measurements
C-FLUOR Probes output a 0-5 Volt analog signal proportional to the fluorescence detected from the fluorophore of interest. Use the wiring diagram from Section 2.4 to connect the C-FLUOR to a power supply and a multi-meter that will read voltages from the probe. Submerge the optical head, or entire probe, into the water sample;... -
