PRODUCT FEATURES OPTISENS OAM 1050 1.1 Turbidity measuring system with innovative cuvette technology The compact turbidity measuring system OPTISENS OAM 1050 OPTISENS OAM 1050 uses the 90° scattered light OPTISENS OAM 1050 OPTISENS OAM 1050 method to scan liquid samples in glass cuvettes. This means that the measurement optics are not directly exposed to the sample and thus require less maintenance.
• Monitoring of contamination 1.2 Options and variants White light / infrared version The OPTISENS OAM 1050 is available with two different light sources. One with a NIR-LED for compliance with ISO 7027 and alternatively a version with a white light lamp for compliance with US EPA regulations.

• Use screws M4 (3/16") to fix the field terminal box at first. • Put the flow through assembly on top of the field terminal box and use screws M6 (¼") to fix it. www.krohne.com 07/2011 - TD OPTISENS OAM 1050 R02 en...
• Inner diameter: 4.75 mm or 3/16" • Outer diameter: 8 mm or 5/16" • Flexible and opaque hose material to prevent algae growth if direct sunlight can reach the hose 07/2011 - TD OPTISENS OAM 1050 R02 en www.krohne.com...
In some pressurized systems there may occur a continuous leakage at the drain vent hole. Therefore the scope of delivery contains a seal screw that you can insert into the vent hole and tighten. www.krohne.com 07/2011 - TD OPTISENS OAM 1050 R02 en...
The device can only detect a new cuvette if it works in the normal operation mode ("AUTO"). If the device operates correctly after inserting a new cuvette, "AUTO" will flash on the display. 07/2011 - TD OPTISENS OAM 1050 R02 en www.krohne.com...
All of the electrical connections to the device run via the field terminal box. For shipment the manufacturer inserts plugs into the alarm and the 4...20 mA / RS 485 cable bulkhead to waterproof the device. www.krohne.com 07/2011 - TD OPTISENS OAM 1050 R02 en...
Before fixing a cable, look an the labels on the board and especially regard polarities! • To establish the electrical connections in the correct way, follow the order of the following sections and their instructions. 07/2011 - TD OPTISENS OAM 1050 R02 en www.krohne.com...
• Fix the cable on the terminal like in the following drawing (1 to 5). • Use the strain relief strap to reduce the tension on the power terminals (6). • Close the terminal box and assure that it is properly sealed. www.krohne.com 07/2011 - TD OPTISENS OAM 1050 R02 en...
• Do not run 4...20 mA or RS 485 cables in the same conduit as power as this could lead to signal interferences. • When using the RS 485 interface, equip the last device on each bus with a 120 Ω terminating resistor to eliminate signal reflection on the line. 07/2011 - TD OPTISENS OAM 1050 R02 en www.krohne.com...
Always connect the sensor interconnect cable with the upper part of the device last of all! The reason is that if you connect the sensor interconnect cable before the internal wiring, energising the device with power could destroy or damage the device! www.krohne.com 07/2011 - TD OPTISENS OAM 1050 R02 en...
