    Damages If damages occurred during shipment, immediately contact UPS or other truck line as well as your Cerlic representative. The shipment can be returned only after contact has been made with Cerlic. Packaging The original packaging is designed to protect the equipment and should be used for storage or if the goods must be returned.
  • Page 5: Mounting Of Itx Suspended Solids Sensor

    6. Mounting of ITX Suspended Solids Sensor The ITX is mounted on a telescopic fiberglass rod and placed in a mounting bracket that fastens to a handrail. Please refer to Appendix 1. As an alternative way of mounting the sensor, an adjustable slide rail holder is available, please refer to the Appendix 2 for further details.
  • Page 6: Removing The Sensor

    7. Removing the sensor The sensor is removed in the following steps: • Disconnect the sensor cable from the BB2 and the flushing hose from solenoid. • Open the clamp, and pull the rod out of the mounting bracket • Make sure all water inside the rod is drained. •...
  • Page 7: Cleaning

    8. Cleaning The sensor is equipped with built- in flushing nozzles. The nozzles are used to direct the cleaning liquid or air through a ¼ ” hose that is connected to the top of the sensor housing. A solenoid valve that is wired to an alarm relay in the BB2 control box controls the air or liquid.
  • Page 8: Mounting Plate For Cleaning Solenoid Valves

    Mounting plate for cleaning solenoid valves To provide an easy mounting of solenoid valves for the built- in flushing nozzles Cerlic offers a predrilled Aluminum handrail mounting plate. The Mounting plate is fixed to the rail using two u-bolts. Please see technical specifications for details and ordering information on Solenoid Valves and Mounting Plate.

    9. Menu for ITX sensor to select the sensor in the main display. The menu for the selected sensor is accessed by pressing ENTER for five seconds. If the selected sensor is not active (the text No transmitter is shown) a warning is displayed that asks you to make another choice in order to show the sensor menu.

    Info Press “ENTER” to go to “info” read only menu. This menu is for Cerlic internal use, it may change without notice linearized light signal, which are SA values in calibration chart Unit value in %, ppm, mg/l, or g/l after MS value has been converted to units due to sample values.
  • Page 11: Calibration

    10. Calibration The BB2 has a self-optimizing calibration algorithm/curve able to handle several calibration points in order to give maximum measuring precision in difficult applications. Usually however, a single point calibration is preferred. After a calibration has been carried out, make it a habit to look at the calibration curve in the sensor information screen to make sure it represents a smooth line without ant sharp bends.
  • Page 12: Zero Calibration

    you want to see a point outside the sensor scale, then you may temporarily change the scale under SETTINGS in the sensor menu. If the sample values are switched or the lab result is incorrectly performed, then the calibration curve will be incorrect. Such a mistake is easy to discover on the calibration screen since a part of the calibration curve will go in the wrong direction.
  • Page 13: Entering Sample Calibration Points - Using A Sample Bucket

    Entering sample calibration points – using a sample bucket Fill a bucket with a sample of the liquid you intend to measure. Submerge the sensor into the liquid. Even though the sensors have daylight- filters they are sensitive to the infrared parts of the sunlight.
  • Page 14: Scaling

    11. Scaling The “SCALE” menu (see the BB2 manual) allows the user to set the high and low boundaries for a 4-20mA output signal. In addition, this menu allows the user to set high and low alarms values that can be used to notify when solids have reached critical points.
