The free chlorine sensor Adopts a coated amperometric dual-electrode measurement system, with the core principles as follows:
1. Detection Target: Only detects hypochlorous acid (HOCL) in water; cannot detect hypochlorite (anionic form); only applicable to inorganic chlorinating agents (chlorine gas, sodium hypochlorite, calcium hypochlorite, chlorine generated by membrane electrolysis); cannot detect organic chlorinating agents (e.g., cyanuric acid-based products).
2. Signal Processing: Integrates a temperature sensor to achieve automatic temperature compensation, and outputs compensated signals—analog signals (4~20 mA or 0~±2V) and digital signals (Modbus RTU, via RS485 interface).
3. Calibration Requirements: Zero-point calibration is not required; slope calibration must be performed using the DPD-1 method (colorimetric method, DPD testing equipment needs to be purchased separately); after calibration, the pH value must remain stable (fluctuation < 0.05); otherwise, a sensor with lower pH dependence should be selected.
4. pH Impact: The concentration ratio of hypochlorous acid (HOCL) depends on the pH value; pH changes will cause measurement slope loss (e.g., approximately 60% slope loss at pH=8, and approximately 80% at pH=8.5, with pH=7 as the reference).
Core adaptation to high-salt concentration water bodies, with specific scenarios as follows:
1. Basic Environment: Brine or seawater with a salt concentration of 3.5%~26% (conductivity > 50mS).
2. Specific Applications:
◦ Disinfection monitoring of drinking water and swimming pool water;
◦ Disinfection monitoring of slightly polluted process water and cooling water treatment;
◦ Must be used with a dedicated flow cell to ensure the water flow meets requirements.
1. High-Salt Adaptability: Specifically designed for brine/seawater with a salt concentration of 3.5%~26%, and resistant to high-salt environments.
2. Advantages of Measurement System: Dual-electrode structure improves measurement stability; fast response time (T90 ≈ 30 seconds).
3. Easy Operation: Integrates temperature compensation, no zero-point calibration required; can be directly connected to a dedicated transmitter, supporting "one-click calibration".
4. Environmental Requirements:
◦ Water flow must be controlled at 15~30 L/H (in the flow cell);
◦ The water to be measured must be drinking water or clean water, free of solids and surfactants (e.g., detergent components);
◦ Only one type of disinfectant can be used at a time to avoid interference.
1. Slope Characteristics: The sensor slope fluctuates depending on the manufacturer/application (65%~150% of the nominal slope); it is recommended to determine the suitable measurement range by multiplying the concentration to be measured by 1.5 (e.g., if the concentration to be measured is 1.6ppm → a measurement range of 5ppm is recommended).
