[font=times]Emerson introduces industry‘s first high-performance, long-life PH/ORP sensor [/font]
[font=times][color=#708090]IRVINE, CALIF. （October 24, 2007） – Emerson Process Management today introduced the Rosemount® Analytical PERpH-X™ 3500 high-performance pH and ORP sensor, the industry‘s first general-purpose pH sensor that includes advanced technologies for longer life in difficult processing applications, providing a lower total cost of ownership.
The Model 3500 combines the high performance of the complete PERpH-X pH sensor family with the convenience of plastic-threaded connections for a wide range of mounting options, making it ideal for use in numerous industries and processing applications. PERpH-X 3500 incorporates several design innovations for prolonged life, including improved pH glass electrode durability, increased reference electrode stability and overall mechanical design reliability, resulting in longer sensor life in challenging processes, faster response, less drift, higher accuracy, and minimized maintenance requirements.
"As the newest member of the PERpH-X family, the new Model 3500 is designed from the ground up to provide superior performance in the most aggressive fouling applications," said John Wright, vice president of marketing, Emerson Process Management, Rosemount Analytical division. "The PERpH-X 3500 brings advanced, long-life technologies previously only available in sensors designed for specialized, demanding process applications, and makes them available in an easy-to-use, general-purpose sensor that reduces total cost of ownership and plant maintenance requirements for a wide variety of industries and applications."
Most pH measurements fail due to fouled or poisoned electrolytes and clogged reference junctions, which are the most common reference electrode problems. The PERpH-X sensor family features an enhanced double junction electrode that excels in harsh applications, and the specially designed porous Teflon liquid junction has a large surface area to maintain a steady reference signal in dirty and fouling applications. The large surface area and high porosity also minimize junction potentials leading to accurate measurements without standardization.
The porous Teflon reference junction is easily replaced if it becomes fouled or plugged. The potassium-chloride-based reference electrolyte is a chemically inert viscous gel that is unaffected by thermal or pressure cycling. With the junction removed, the outer reference electrolyte can be recharged using a gel-filled syringe supplied in the various solutions kits available as an accessory. Replacing a clogged junction or recharging the electrolyte will rejuvenate most failed sensors. Proper preventative maintenance can dramatically extend the life of the sensor by minimizing the depletion or poisoning of the primary reference.
The available Solution Kits optimize the PERpH-X 3500 performance by keeping the porous Teflon reference from coating and the electrolyte from fouling. Six solutions are available as electrolyte kits: high-temperature; bio-film-resistant; poisoning-resistant; oil-resistant; scaling-resistant; metals-resistant. Each kit contains a treated porous Teflon reference junction and a specially formulated electrolyte to extend the life of the reference electrode in its targeted application.
