The Turtle Tough Clean Water 1 (CW1) inline pH sensor is designed to provide accurate and reliable pH measurement in various applications, including inline and immersion setups. Its robust construction and advanced features make it ideal for monitoring pH levels in harsh and demanding environments. This article delves into the specifics of the CW1 inline pH sensor, highlighting its key features, benefits, and typical applications.
Key Features of the CW1 Inline pH Sensor
- Chemically Resistant PPS (Ryton) Body: The CW1 inline pH sensor is constructed with a highly chemical-resistant PPS (Ryton) body. PPS, or polyphenylene sulphide, is known for its exceptional chemical resistance, making the sensor durable and suitable for aggressive environments. This material ensures the sensor can withstand exposure to various chemicals without compromising its structural integrity or measurement accuracy.
- 3/4″x 3/4″ MNPT Process Connections: The sensor features 3/4″ male national pipe thread (MNPT) connections at the front and rear, facilitating easy integration with various process systems. These standard connections ensure compatibility with a wide range of piping and equipment, simplifying installation and maintenance.
- Double Junction Design: The double junction design of the CW1 inline pH sensor provides enhanced protection against reference electrode contamination, which can occur when measuring pH in solutions containing heavy metals, sulphides, or other contaminants. This design extends the sensor’s lifespan and ensures consistent and reliable pH measurements even in challenging conditions.
- Quick Response Time: The CW1 inline pH sensor is engineered for rapid response to changes in pH levels. This quick response time is crucial in processes where real-time monitoring and control are essential for maintaining optimal conditions and preventing potential issues.
- Wide Temperature Range: The sensor operates effectively across a broad temperature range, from 0 to 110°C. This wide range allows it to be used in various applications, including those involving high-temperature processes, without compromising performance or accuracy.
- High-Pressure Tolerance: The CW1 inline pH sensor can withstand pressures up to 87 psi, making it suitable for pressurised systems. This high-pressure tolerance ensures the sensor can perform reliably in demanding environments where pressure fluctuations are common.
- PT1000 Temperature Compensator: Equipped with a PT1000 temperature compensator, the CW1 inline pH sensor automatically adjusts for temperature variations to provide accurate pH readings. This feature is essential in processes where temperature fluctuations can significantly impact pH levels.
- Five-meter Cable: The sensor comes with a five-meter cable, providing flexibility in installation and allowing the sensor to be positioned optimally within the process environment. The length of the cable ensures ease of connection to control systems and data acquisition devices.
Benefits of the CW1 Inline pH Sensor
- Durability: The PPS (Ryton) body material and double junction design enhance the sensor’s durability, making it suitable for long-term use in harsh environments.
- Accuracy: The PT1000 temperature compensator and quick response time ensure precise pH measurements, which is critical for process control and quality assurance.
- Ease of Installation: The standard 3/4″ MNPT connections and five-meter cable simplify installation and integration with existing systems.
- Versatility: The sensor’s wide temperature and pressure ranges and chemical resistance make it adaptable to various applications and industries.
