- 7. What is special about pH glass? H + H + + + + + + + - - - - - - Acidic Alkaline Glass membrane Glass membrane (0.2 - 0.5mm) Gel layer ca. 1 µm (outer and inner) positive charge negative charge internal buffer The surface layer of the glass membrane is the “key performer” in each pH measurement! pH is a measurement of the potential difference between inner and outer layer of glass membrane! This is one reason why pH sensors need to be stored in salt solution when not in use!

- Some examples are: Beer 4,5 pH Milk 6,2 pH lemon juice 2,2 pH HCl 0,1 M 1 pH Activity a= concentration* activity factor. This activity factor is often estimated to be close to 1, and means activity~concentration
- Describe reference system. Calomel reference (Hg/Hg 2 Cl 2 ) is the general electrochemical standard in place of the standard hydrogen electrode (describe!). Not suitable for industrial use: unstable above 60 o C toxic Preferred system is Ag/AgCl, essentially as good as the Calomel system but high temperature stable.

- Conductivity is affected by temperature since water becomes less viscous at higher temperatures and ions can move more easily—they have greater mobility. Typical mineral ions increase in conductivity by about 2% of value per °C. Temperature as well as water purity can change the conductivity. For this reason, it has become an industry standard to compensate measurements to 25°C. That is, the conductivity value is reported as if the sample were at 25°C. General purpose temperature compensation provides the typical 2% per °C correction.

- To minimize the problems of the two electrode design, a different method has been developed.
- Four-electrode measurement refers to a conductivity sensor incorporating four electrodes into its probe body instead of the usual two. The four-electrode measuring technique is used for highly conductive and/or dirty water samples which would foul the surfaces and/or plug the narrow passages of conventional two-electrode conductivity sensors. Suspended solids, turbidity, silt and oils tend to coat electrode surfaces and accumulate in passages and produce negative conductivity errors with two-electrode conductivity systems. Four-electrode measurement applies an AC current through the sample via two outer drive electrodes. These electrodes may become fouled and the circuit will compensate to maintain the AC current level. Two inner measuring electrodes are used to sense the voltage drop through the portion of solution between them. The circuit makes a high impedance AC voltage measurement, drawing negligible current and making it much less affected by additional resistance due to fouling of the measuring electrode surfaces.
- 1. Electrode surface condition for high conductivity measurements with two-electrode systems is critical. The surface must be rough on a microscopic scale in order to provide very intimate contact with the sample. Otherwise a high resistance at the interface would cause low conductivity readings. 2. Coatings which insulate the electrodes of a two-electrode sensor have a direct impact on the accuracy, especially when the conductivity of the sample is high. Moderate insulation of the electrodes of four-electrode sensors has no effect since the voltage measurement is made with virtually no current flow. 3. The flat surface of four-electrode sensors is largely self-cleaning in high flow applications.
- Inductive conductivity provides the best tolerance for fouling conditions, with no electrodes in contact with the sample. It can also be used for high purity chemical concentration measurements with its excellent chemical resistance and no wetted metal parts. Insertion and submersion mounting are available.
- Conductivity cell installation must assure that the cell is completely immersed in water. No bubbles can be within the annular space between electrodes or erroneously low conductivity (high resistivity) readings will result. Upward flow is desirable so air can easily escape.
- When installing in large pipe, do not use a series of reducing bushings that would create a “dead leg” of stagnant water around the cell. Tap directly into the pipe or into a pipe plug in a Tee. Deionization resin beads, if they escape from a column, can become lodged between the electrodes of a conductivity cell and short them, causing erroneously high conductivity (low resistivity) readings.

- Typical ranges of applications are shown in resistivity, conductivity and Total dissolved solids (ppm TDS) units. The TDS scale here is based on the concentration of sodium chloride that would have the identified conductivity and resistivity. Other substances such as calcium carbonate may be use as the basis.
- As we all know, In the sensor a small microprocessor has been integrated, that stores and process all relevant data. All this information is then digitally transferred to the instrument without any risk of interferences. The microprocessor is also able to store information like calibration values, identity and timestamp the maximum process temperature. What is even more interesting with ISM is the connection possibilities and how the sensors can perform there own diagnostics in real-time.
- With the ISM we have transferred the technology experience and know how that we have collected over the years into the sensor and the sensor head. In the sensor a small microprocessor has been integrated, that stores and process all relevant data. All this information is then digitally transferred to the instrument. With this new technology, the ISM sensors are able to perform its own diagnostics in real-time. All our new transmitters are ready to handle the ISM technology and together with the ISM sensors they can perform true predictive maintenance.
- SLIDE CAN BE SKIPPED IN CASE OF TIME PRESSURE There is an overlap in measuring range for inductive and 4E cond. Sensors We position the 4E sensors mainly for chemical, pharma-, and F&B application where the conditions are not to harsh. The inductive sensors are designed for chemical and P&P industrie where you have harsh conditions. Nevertheless, if the customer insist on either a 4E or inductive solution we now can offer both sensor types with best performance. SLIDE CAN BE SKIPPED IN CASE OF TIME PRESSURE
