Page 11: System Description & Architecture
Introduction SYSTEM DESCRIPTION & ARCHITECTURE The 9031CX Sodium analyzer system is comprised of the following: Wet-Section (Sensor Unit) a. Hydraulic panel consisting of constant head, flowcell, tubing, thermistor and solenoid valve b. Sodium and reference electrodes c. Reagent container d. Separate sodium standard solution containers (Low and High) -
Page 12: Wet Section Unit
Introduction WET SECTION UNIT 1.2.1 The 9031CX Sodium system is capable of monitoring sodium concentrations in sample feed. The solenoid valve is used to select between analyzing the sample, and accessing calibration standard 1 (Low)/calibration standard 2 (High) during calibration. -
Page 13: Installation
Mount the analyzer in a clean, vibration-free area avoiding direct radiant heat, sunlight and drafts. Avoid areas containing chlorinating equipment. The 9031CX Sodium analyzer default design is comprised of two separate sections (transmitter and wet section). The sensor unit can be mounted separately as long as it is no more than 330 feet (100meters) from the transmitter unit. -
Page 14: Mounting The Transmitter Unit
Transmitter unit is a NEMA 4X rated enclosure with cable glands for wiring. Size and layout of transmitter is shown below. Figure 4 Dimensions of the transmitter unit. (All dimensions in inches) Waltron User Manual 101-045-E.1 9031CX Sodium Analyzer... -

Page 27: Alarms
SAMPLE CONCENTRATION ALARMS 3.2.1 When the 9031CX Sodium system is in normal operation mode one alarm operates as a “low” alarm and the other operates as a “high” alarm. The CONC LOW alarm is activated when the sodium level decreases below the set value. The CONC HIGH alarm is activated when the sodium level increases above the set value. -
Page 28: Getting Started
If the analyzer is being started up for the first time, or if it was not in operation for a long time, the user should perform a calibration as detailed in Section 3.7.2. SOFTWARE STRUCTURE MAP Waltron User Manual 101-045-E.1 9031CX Sodium Analyzer... -
