5.1 Functional principle of measurement
•
Sample water is taken at a representative position and passed
to the measuring cell via an integral filter.
– The water flow rate can be adjusted on the measuring cell.
– A float switch serves to signal a sample water deficiency and
for example trigger an alarm.
•
Part of the water is taken from the measuring cell and routed
through the three-electrode assembly.
– The agent to be determined (Cl
noble-metal electrode.
•
The material to be determined generates an electric current:
– in the µA range
– proportional to the concentration of the parameter Cl
chlorine)
– The measuring cell is controlled by a potentiostat integrated
into the measuring amplifier.
– An exactly defined potential of the working electrode is
retained by means of the third electrode (reference
electrode). This results in a linear response for the
measuring cell as well as a stable zero point for the
measurement.
•
The measuring amplifier Conex
– amplifies the current
– calculates it using the calibration parameters
– displays the concentration as a numerical value
– controls a gas dosing unit or a dosing pump as final control
element.
A water sample without buffer solution can be taken at the sample
water tap. This tap is located before the measuring cell.
