MODEL 398R/398RVP pH/ORP
SECTION 1.0
DESCRIPTION AND SPECIFICATIONS
SECTION 1.0
DESCRIPTION AND SPECIFICATIONS
1.1 FEATURES AND APPLICATIONS
The chemical-resistant construction of Tefzel® 1,
titanium, and the TUpH reference junction makes the
Model 398R and 398RVP the ideal sensors for measuring pH in harsh process liquids. Use these sensors
to measure pH in sour water strippers, in pulp bleaching towers that use chlorine dioxide, and in process
streams containing a variety of organic solvents.
The TUpH reference technology provides maximum
life and ensures low maintenance in processes that
typically coat reference junctions. Standard porous
junctions plug easily, leading to noisy, drifting pH readings and increased maintenance. The TUpH junction
fights plugging in two ways. TUpH junction pores are
much smaller than the smallest particles likely to be in
the process. Therefore, particles do not block the
pores but remain on the surface. The junction surface
area is large, so many solids can accumulate on the
junction before the pH signal degrades. TUpH sensors
also resist poisoning. The long internal helical diffusion
pathway hinders poisoning agents, like sulfide, mercury, cyanide, and ammonia, from migrating into the reference electrode.
The entire line of TUpH model sensors now incorporate the new SILCORE™2 technology contaminant barrier. This triple-seal barrier prevents moisture
and material impurities from migrating to the pH sensor’s reference electrode’s metal lead wire. By preventing these contaminants from compromising the
integrity of the pH measurement, sensor life is
increased, especially at higher temperatures where
increased migrations occur. In addition, the SILCORE
technology provides added protection against sensor
failure due to vibrations and shock by transferring
damaging energy away from the glass-to-metal seal.
The ACCUGLASS™2 pH bulb means the glass electrode resists cracking and has nearly theoretically perfect response even at extreme pH values. A slotted tip
surrounding the glass bulb provides additional protection against breakage. The sensor can be oriented with
the bulb directly in the stream, or it can be turned ninety degrees, permitting the shroud to protect the glass
bulb from particles.
The Model 398R and 398RVP use the highest quality
materials to provide superior chemical resistance.
These retractable sensors are housed in a titanium
tube and are designed for use with a 1-1/4 inch or
1-1/2 inch ball valve. The molded Tefzel® 1 TUpH construction is offered with a choice of seals (Viton® 1 or
Kalrez® 1). Combining high quality materials with the
TUpH reference technology and ACCUGLASS™ pH bulb
allows for ultimate chemical resistance and makes the
Model 398R the perfect choice for measuring pH in
harsh, demanding processes.
The 398R is available with 15 ft. of cable for wiring
directly to an analyzer/transmitter or a remote junction
box. The sensor is also available with 9.5 in. of cable
for use with a sensor head junction box which attaches to the sensor tube using a compression fitting. Due
to the high impedance pH signal, a preamplifier must
be used and can be housed in the analyzer/ transmitter or junction box.
The 398RVP is available with a six-pin connector and
uses a mating connector cable.
The Models 398Rand 398RVP are compatible with all
Rosemount Analytical and various other manufacturers
instruments.

INSTALLATION
SECTION 2.0
INSTALLATION
2.1 UNPACKING AND INSPECTION. Inspect the outside of the carton for any damage. If damage is detected, contact the carrier immediately. Inspect the instrument and hardware. Make sure all items in the packing
list are present and in good condition. Notify the factory if any part is missing.
NOTE
If the sensor is to be stored, the protective
boot should be filled with either KCl electrolyte solution or pH 4.0 buffer solution and
replaced on sensor tip until ready to use.
2.2.1 INSTALLATION THROUGH BALL VALVE.
1. Carefully remove the liquid filled rubber boot which
protects the glass electrode and keeps the liquid
junction wet during shipping and storage. Discard
the liquid and boot. Make sure the lubricated Oring is in place in the groove inside the male connector on the sensor body (Figure 6-1).
NOTE
Save the original packing cartons and
materials as most carriers require proof of
damage due to mishandling, etc. Also, if it
is necessary to return the instrument to the
factory, you must pack the instrument in the
same manner as it was received. Refer to
Section 6.0 for instructions.
2. With the male connector on the sensor’s body,
insert the sensor into the ball valve until it gently
touches the closed valve. The molded electrode
guard will protect the glass bulb from breakage
(extra caution should be taken when inserting the
flat glass sensor into the valve because it does not
have an electrode guard).
3. Thread the male connector body tightly into the ball
valve assembly. DO NOT tighten the hex nut on the
male connector body; doing so would not allow the
sensor to be inserted through the ball valve.
4. Pull back hard on the sensor assembly, as if trying
to remove the sensor, to be certain that the sensor
cannot come free of the ball valve assembly. The
built-in retraction stop will butt against the shoulder
of the male connector if properly installed.
WARNING
Glass electrode must be wetted at all times
(in storage and in line) to maximize sensor
life.
2.2 MECHANICAL INSTALLATION. Both models may
be installed through a weldalet or in a pipe tee or “Y”,
as shown in Figure 2-2, when used with a ball valve.
Insert the end of the sensor to a depth sufficient to
ensure that the glass bulb is continuously wetted by
the process fluid. Each model can also be inserted
directly into the process without the use of a ball valve
for applications not requiring continuous operation during sensor maintenance.
CAUTION
Allow sufficient room for safe retraction and
insertion of the sensor. Personnel should
have room for stable footing while performing removal or insertion of the sensor.
The sensor must be mounted within 10-90 degrees of
the horizontal with the tip pointed downward. This
ensures that the inside surface of the pH-sensitive
glass bulb is completely wetted and that there is a
good electrical connection between the bulb and the
internal silver/silver chloride reference electrode.
If the retraction version is to be installed without a ball
valve follow the installation procedure for insertion
service (Section 2.2.2). Perform the following steps for
sensor installation through a ball valve:
6
CAUTION
Buffer solution, in the protective boot, may
cause skin or eye irritation.
CAUTION
The sensor must be captured by the valve
assembly and the male connector so that it
cannot be blown free by process pressure if
mishandled during insertion or retraction.
5. After confirming that the sensor assembly is properly secured by the valve assembly, the valve may
be opened and the sensor positioned into the
process at the desired depth and orientation.
6. While holding the sensor in position, tighten the
hex nut of the male connector to firmly secure the
sensor in place. When the hex nut is tightened, the
Teflon ferrule inside the compression fitting
clamps the sensor tube (see Figure 6-2).
CAUTION
Over tightening the hex nut may
damage the ferrule.
NOTE
A stainless steel ferrule is available if the
Teflon ferrule does not adequately grip. When
using the metallic ferrule, care must be taken
to avoid over tightening and damaging the
sensor tube. If the male connector leaks during
insertion or retraction, replace the O-ring in the
male connector (see Figure 6-1).

Make electrical connections, as shown in Figures 4-1
through 4-19 using the following guidelines:
5. Run signal cable in a dedicated conduit away
from AC power lines.
1. Pay particular attention to the analyzer or transmitter model number when following details on
the wiring diagrams to ensure that the connections are made to the proper terminals.
NOTE
For maximum EMI/RFI protection when wiring
from the sensor to the junction box, the outer
braid of the sensor should be connected to
the outer braid of the extension cable. The
outer braid of the extension cable to the
instrument must be terminated at earth
ground or by using an appropriate metal cable
gland fitting that provides a secure connection
tot he instrument cable.
2. Use mating VP connector cable PN 23645-06 or
PN 23645-07.
3. Use Rosemount custom cable PN 9200273
(unprepped), 236446-01 (prepped), or PN
9200254 (unprepped) to connect the transmitter
or analyzer to remote or sensor-mounted junction
boxes.
4. The maximum distance from the sensor to the
analyzer is 15 ft without an integral sensor preamplifier.

CALIBRATION
SECTION 5.0
CALIBRATION
5.1 GENERAL INFORMATION
1. New sensors must be calibrated before use.
2
Regular recalibration is also necessary and is determined by the user.
3. The use of a two-point buffer calibration is always recommended.
4. Refer to the transmitter/analyzer instruction manual for more specific calibration procedures.
5.2 USE OF CALIBRATION BUFFERS (STANDARDS)
1. Good buffers lead to good calibrations: A pH measurement is only as good as the calibration, and the calibration is only as good as the buffers used. A careful buffer calibration is the first step in making an accurate
pH measurement.
2. Use appropriate buffers: Calibrate with buffers having pH values that bracket the pH of the process. For
example, if the pH is between 8 and 9, calibrate with pH 7 and 10 buffers. Commercial buffers for intermediate range pH are readily available.
3. Sensor and buffers must be at the same temperature: Allow time for the sensor and buffers to reach the
same temperature. If the sensor was just removed from a process having a temperature more than 10°C different from the buffer, allow at least 20 minutes.
4. Buffers must be at process temperature: For best results, calibrate with buffers having the same temperature as the process. If the buffer and process temperature differ by more than about 15°C an error as great as
0.1pH may result.
5. Be careful using buffers at very high temperatures: Protect the solution from evaporation. Evaporation
changes the concentration of the buffer and its pH. Be sure the pH of the buffer is defined at high temperatures. The pH of many buffers is undefined above 60°C. Finally, no matter what the temperature is, allow the
entire measurement cell, sensor and solution, to reach constant temperature before calibrating.
6. The pH of a buffer changes with temperature: The pH of a buffer is a function of temperature. The pH of
alkaline buffers depends more strongly on temperature than the pH of acidic or neutral buffers. Most process
pH instruments, including those manufactured by Rosemount Analytical, have an auto calibration feature. The
instrument recognizes the buffer being used and automatically corrects for the change in buffer pH with temperature. If the instrument does not perform the correction, the user must enter the appropriate value. Buffer
manufacturers usually list the temperature dependence of the buffer on the label.
7. Buffers have limited shelf lives: Do not use a buffer if the expiration date has passed. Store buffers at controlled room temperature.
8. Do not reuse buffers: Do not return used buffer to the stock bottle. Discard it.
9. Protect buffers from excessive exposure to air: Atmospheric carbon dioxide lowers the pH of alkaline
buffers. Other trace gases commonly found in industrial environments, for example, ammonia and hydrogen
chloride, also affect the pH of buffers. Molds, from airborne spores, grow readily in neutral and slightly acidic
buffers. Mold growth can substantially alter the pH of a buffer.
10. Clean the sensor before using buffers: Rinse the sensor with deionized water before placing it in a buffer.
Remove excess water from the sensor by gently daubing it with a clean tissue. Do not wipe the sensor. Wiping
may generate a static charge, leading to noisy readings. The static charge may take hours to dissipate. A few
drops of deionized water carried with the sensor into the buffer will not appreciably alter the pH.

SECTION 5.0
CALIBRATION
5.3 TWO-POINT BUFFER CALIBRATION:
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS.
1. Remove the protective vinyl cap from the sensor tip.
2. Rinse the sensor and immerse it in the first buffer. Ensure that the glass bulb and the temperature element are
completely submerged by keeping the sensor tip about 3 inches below the liquid level. Swirl the sensor to dislodge trapped air bubbles. Do not allow the weight of the sensor to rest on the glass bulb.
3. Once the reading is stable, enter the buffer value in the analyzer. If the analyzer does not correct for changes
in buffer pH with temperature, be sure to enter the temperature-corrected value.
4. Remove the sensor from the first buffer. Rinse the sensor and place it in the second buffer. Follow the same
precautions given in step 2.
5. Once the reading is stable, enter the buffer value in the analyzer. If the analyzer does not correct for changes
in buffer pH with temperature, be sure to enter the temperature-corrected value.
6. After calibration, note the sensor slope. Slope has units of mV per unit change in pH. An ideal sensor has a
slope of 59 mV/pH at 25°C. Slope decreases as the sensor ages. Once the slope drops to between 47 and
49 mV/pH, the sensor should be replaced.
7. Remove the sensor from buffer 2 and return it to the process liquid.
5.4 pH STANDARDIZATION:
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
Standardization means making the process instrument match the reading from a second pH meter. The second
pH reading is usually made on a grab sample.
1. Take the sample from a point as close as possible to the process sensor. To avoid starving the process sensor, use a downstream sample point.
2. Wait until the process pH is constant or, at worst, slowly drifting before taking the grab sample.
3. To ensure that measured pH is truly the pH of the process liquid, determine the pH of the grab sample immediately. pH is a function of temperature. If the temperature of the process differs from ambient, measure the
pH of the grab sample before its temperature changes. Some process liquids are poorly buffered. The pH of
the sample may change significantly upon exposure to air or to the sample container. To avoid deterioration
of the sample, measure the pH immediately.
4. Following the instructions in the instrument manual, adjust the process reading to the value measured on the
grab sample.
5.5 ORP STANDARDIZATION:
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
There are relatively few ORP calibration standards available. The most popular one is a solution containing 0.1 M
iron (II) and 0.1 M iron (III) in 1 M sulfuric acid. The standard is available from Rosemount Analytical as PN R50816OZ. The poten-tial of the solution measured against a silver-silver chloride reference electrode is 475 ±20 mV
at 25°C.
1. Rinse the sensor with deionized water and place it in the ORP standard along with a reliable ther-mometer.
Submerge the sensor tip at least three inches below the surface of the liquid. Swirl the sensor to dislodge
trapped bubbles. Adjust the temperature of the standard to 25 ±5°C.
2. Wait until temperature and ORP readings are stable.
3. Following the instructions in the instrument analyzer, store ORP value (475 mV) in memory.
4. Remove the sensor from the ORP standard, rinse it, and return it to the process fluid.

MAINTENANCE
SECTION 6.0
MAINTENANCE
6.1 Maintenance. The frequency at which a sensor should be inspected, cleaned, and calibrated can be determined only by experience. Generally, the greater the tendency of the process liquid to coat or foul the sensor, the
more frequently maintenance should be done. Because the Model 398R and 398RVP sensors resist fouling, they
usually require maintenance less often than other pH (or ORP) sensors. Sensors exposed to extreme pH values
or to high temperature require more frequent inspection than sensors installed in less severe environments. The
best way to evaluate a sensor is to check its performance in buffers. If the sensor cannot be calibrated or has low
slope, it is dirty or has failed. Refer to the troubleshooting guide in the instrument manual and in this manual for
assistance.
6.2 Sensor Removal. Please refer to the appropriate paragraph for instructions regarding removal of the sensor
for periodic maintenance.
6.2.1 Retractable Version.
WARNING
System pressure may cause the sensor to blow out with great force unless care is taken during
removal. Make sure the following steps are adhered to.
A. Model 398R-21 and 398RVP-21 (21” tube)
1. Be certain system pressure at the sensor is below 64 psig before proceeding with the retraction. It is also recommended that the personnel wear a face shield and have a stable footing. Refer to Figure 6-1. Push in on
the cable end or the top of the junction box and slowly loosen the hex nut (B) of the process end male connector (A).
FIGURE 6-1. Example of Sensor Tube Replacement
38
MODEL 398R/398RVP pH/ORP
SECTION 6.0
MAINTENANCE
B. Model 398R-25 and 398RVP-25 (36” tube)
2. Be certain that pressure at the sensor is below 35 psig before proceeding with the retraction. It is also recommended that the personnel wear a face shield and have a stable footing. Refer to Figure 6-1. Push in on
the cable end or the top of the junction box and slowly loosen the hex nut (B) of the process end male connector (A).
CAUTION
Do not remove nut at this time.
3.
When the hex nut is loose enough, slowly ease the sensor back completely until the retraction stop collar
(mechanical safety stop) is reached.
CAUTION
Failure to withdraw the sensor completely may result in damage to the sensor when the valve is closed.
4.
Close the ball valve slowly. If there is resistance, the valve may be hitting the sensor. Double check that the
sensor has been retracted to the retraction stop collar.
WARNING
Before removing the sensor from the ball valve, be absolutely certain that the ball valve is fully
closed. Leakage from the male connector threads may indicate that the male connector is still
under pressure. Leakage through a partially open valve could be hazardous, however with
the ball valve closed, some residual process fluid may leak from the connector's pipe threads.
5.
The Male Connector Body (A) may now be completely unthreaded from the reducing coupling and the sensor
removed for servicing.
CAUTION
If the male connector leaks during insertion or retraction, replace the O-ring (PN 9550167) in the male
connector (A).
6.3 Cleaning Procedures - pH Sensors.
To remove the sensor from the process piping, follow the instructions in Section 6.2.
CAUTION
Only persons thoroughly familiar with the procedure for diluting concentrated hydrochloric acid should
prepare the solution. Dilute the acid in a fume hood or in a well-ventilated area. Point the acid bottle away
from people when opening it. Wear appropriate safety equipment, including chemical goggles and
gloves. Do not let acid touch the skin or clothing. If acid solutions contact the skin or eyes, rinse thoroughly with water. Seek medical assistance.
PROBLEM
CLEANING SUGGESTIONS
Loose scale or debris
Use a stream of water from a wash bottle to rinse away solids from the tip of the
sensor. If water does not work, gently wipe the glass bulb and liquid junction with
a soft cloth, tissue, cotton-tipped swab, or a soft bristle brush.
Oil and grease
Wash the glass bulb with mild detergent solution and rinse thoroughly with water.
Hard scale (carbonate and
sulfate scales and corrosion products)
If wiping the sensor tip with a tissue or cotton swab does not remove the scale,
soak the the glass bulb ONLY in a solution of 5% hydrochloric acid. To prepare
the acid solution, add 15 mL of concentrated hydrochloric acid to 85 mL of water
with continuous stirring. See CAUTION below. Keep the acid away from the liquid
junction. Rinse the sensor thoroughly with deionized water. Some scales (for
example, calcium sulfate) cannot be removed easily with acid. Soaking the glass
bulb in a 2% solution of disodium EDTA for 20 minutes may be helpful.
39
MODEL 398R/398RVP pH/ORP
SECTION 6.0
MAINTENANCE
When using acid or alkaline solvents, be careful to keep
the solvent away from the liquid junction. See Figure 6-2.
If the cleaning solvent contacts the junction, hydrogen
ions (acid solvent) or hydroxide ions (alkaline solvent)
will diffuse into the junction. Because hydrogen and
hydroxide ions have much greater mobility than other
ions, they produce a large junction potential. When the
electrode goes back in service, the hydrogen or hydroxide ions slowly diffuse out of the junction, causing the
liquid junction potential and the pH reading to drift. It
may take hours or days for the reading to stabilize.
Always recalibrate the sensor after cleaning. If the sensor was cleaned with detergent or acid, soak the sensor
in pH 4 or pH 7 buffer for at least an hour before calibrating.
6.4 Cleaning Procedures - ORP Sensors
Clean platinum ORP electrodes by using a tissue to rub
the metal surface with a paste of baking soda (sodium
bicarbonate). A clean platinum electrode is bright and
shiny.
Figure 6-2. Model 398R pH Sensor
The figure shows the tip of the Model 398R pH sensor.
The bottom of the liquid junction is about even with the
top of the wings that form the slotted tip. Keep acidic and
alkaline solvents away from the liquid junction. If acids or
bases get into the junction, subsequent pH readings may
drift for several hours.
6.5 Checking the Reference Electrode
Some processes contain substances, for example, sulfides, that poison the reference electrode. Poisoning
alters the electrode potential. For example, sulfide poisoning converts the reference electrode from a silver/silver chloride electrode into a silver/silver sulfide
electrode, causing a shift in potential of several hundred
millivolts.
A good way to check for poisoning is to compare the
voltage of the reference electrode with a silver/silver
chloride electrode that is known to be good. The reference electrode from a new sensor is the best choice. To
check the suspect electrode, place both sensors in a
beaker containing buffer or a solution of potassium chloride. Connect the reference leads to a voltmeter and
measure the potential difference. If the suspect electrode is good, the difference should be no more than
about 20 mV. Refer to Figure 6-3. A poisoned reference
electrode usually requires replacement.
A laboratory silver/silver chloride reference electrode
can be used in place of the second sensor. All
Rosemount Analytical pH sensors have a silver/silver
chloride reference, and most sensors use gelled saturated potassium chloride for the fill. The potentials of a
good sensor reference electrode and a saturated silver/silver chloride laboratory electrode will agree within
about 20 mV.
40
Figure 6-3. Checking the Potential of the
Reference Electrode.
Refer to the wire function diagrams in Figure 2-6 to identify the reference lead. For sensors with a BNC connection, the reference is the outside of the BNC connector.
For sensors without a BNC, the reference is the clear wire
grouped with the orange pH/ORP lead.
MODEL 398R/398RVP pH/ORP
6.6. Rejuvenating Reference Electrodes
Occasionally, a poisoned or plugged reference electrode
can be reconditioned. Although the electrode seldom
recovers completely, the procedure might extend the life
of the sensor by a few weeks.
a. Clean the sensor as thoroughly as possible.
b. Soak the sensor for several hours in a hot (NOT
BOILING) 3% potassium chloride solution. Prepare
the solution by dissolving 3 g of potassium chloride
in 100 mL of water.
c.
Soak the sensor in pH 4 buffer at room temperature
overnight.
d. Calibrate the sensor in buffers and retest it in the
process liquid.

The Model 398R and 398RVP pH sensors produce a
voltage which the instrument converts to pH using a
temperature-dependent factor. A Pt 100 or a Balco 3K
RTD built into the sensor measures temperature. To
permit cor-rection for changes in lead resistance with
temperature, a three-wire configuration (Figure 6-4) is
used.
To check the RTD, disconnect the leads and measure
the resistances shown. The measured resistance
should agree with the value in the table to within about
±1%. If the measured resistance is appreciably dif-ferent (between 1 and 5%), the discrepancy can be calibrated out. See the instrument instruction manual.
6.8. Sensor Tube Replacement When Used With A
Sensor Head Junction Box
Figure 6-4. Three-wire RTD circuit
Consult Table 6.1 (above) for temperature-resistance data.
Lead resistance is about 0.05 ohm/ft at 25°C. Therefore, 15
ft of cable increases the resistance by about 1.5 ohm. The
resistance between the RTD return and RTD sense leads
should be less than 2 ohms. If a connection is open or
shorted and should not be, replace the sensor. If the measured resistance is greatly in error, replace the sensor.
Replacement of the retraction versions sensor tube
assembly involves the removal and installation of two
sets of male connectors: One at the process end of the
sensor, and the other at the junction box end (See
Figure 6-1 and Figure 6-5). Refer to Section 6.2 for proper removal of the sensor from process.
1.
2.
3.
Remove sensor from process before proceeding. The junction box with attached male connector must be
recovered from the old sensor for reuse. Unscrew the junction box cover and set aside. Disconnect electrical
connections from printed circuit board inside junction box. Disconnect BNC connector to preamp. Unscrew
hex nut (F) from male connector body (E). Separate junction box from used sensor. Set aside.
Pry off split ferrule from sensor and set aside for reuse. Remove hex nut (F) and set aside for reuse. Check
that the internal O-ring is in place in the male connector body (E) attached to the junction box.
Remove hex nut (B) from male connector body (A) at process end of sensor and set aside. Slide the Teflon
ferrule and the male connector off sensor in the direction of junction box and set
NOTE
If stainless steel ferrule was used, male connector body (A) will
have to be discarded with the sensor tube.
41
MODEL 398R/398RVP pH/ORP
4.
SECTION 6.0
MAINTENANCE
Discard used O-ring from male connector body (A). Coat new O-ring with a thin film of the O-ring lubricant
provided. Position it in the machined O-ring groove in place of the discarded O-ring.
CAUTION
Make sure lubricant does not contact any part of the sensor tip particularly the glass bulb.
5.
Cover the 1" MNPT pipe threads of the male connector body (A) with Teflon tape (not provided) to protect
them from galling during reinstallation.
6.
Pass the wires from the new sensor through the process end male connector (A). Make sure that the beveled
edge of the ferrule faces the process end of the sensor. Snug the hex nut (B) to keep it in place. Do not tighten down fully on the hex nut at this time.
7.
Pass the wires from the new sensor through the hex nut (F), the split ferrule (from the old sensor), male connector body (E), O-ring, and through the junction box from the “neck” opening and out to the printed circuit
board in the junction box. Butt the ferrule’s beveled edge and the sensor tube against the junction male connector (E). Screw the hex nut (F) by hand until the tube is “locked” into the male connector body. Make sure
that the male connector body (E) is sufficiently tightened. The sensor will “click” into place by pulling the sensor tube away from the junction box, but will not move from side to side or pull clear of the male connector. If
the sensor tube is correctly attached to the junction box, wrench tighten hex nut (F) on male connector body
(E). See Figure 6-1. Do not put the sensor tube in a vise or use a pipe wrench to tighten the hardware as these
will damage the sensor. If sensor tube is not correctly attached to the junction box, loosen hex nut (F) and
repeat.
8.
Connect the sensor wires to the terminals on the printed circuit board in the junction box in the manner recommended on the junction box cover,and reattach the BNC connector to the preamp. Screw on the cover of
the junction box aside. Discard sensor tube.
9.
Insert the sensor in the process fitting. Stop it against the closed ball valve. Slide the process-end male connector down the sensor tube to mate with the process fitting. Tighten the male connector into the process fitting.
10. Pull back hard on the sensor assembly, as if trying to remove the sensor, to be certain that the sensor cannot
come free from the valve assembly and male connector. The built-in retraction stop collar at the end of the
sensor will butt against the shoulder of the male connector.
11. Open ball valve and position the sensor at the desired insertion depth and orientation. Using a crescent or
open end wrench, tighten the hex nut (B) to secure the sensor in place. See Figure 6-5.
NOTE
A stainless steel ferrule is available if the Teflon ferrule does not adequately grip.
Be careful and avoid over tightening. This can damage the sensor tube.
CAUTION
If the male connector leaks
during insertion or retraction,
replace the O-Ring (PN
9550167) in the male connector body (A).
If the sensor is to be stored, the
rubber boot should be filled with
7pH buffer solution and replaced
on sensor tip until ready to use.

PROBLEM/SYMPTOM
PROBABLE CAUSE
REMEDY
After completing calibration
procedures, slope is low
(a low slope value is any value
below 48 mV)
Aged glass electrode
Replace sensor if glass impedance is above
800 megohms.
High temperature exposure
Replace sensor; high temperature has
affected the sensor much like aging glass.
Electrode is coated
See Section 6.3 for proper sensor cleaning.
After cleaning, the glass impedance value
will dramatically drop to a value between 20
and 800 megohms.
Broken wire
Check integrity of wires at instrument end of
the sensor cable.
Miswired sensor
Check wiring diagrams for proper wiring to
appropriate analyzer.
Buffers are old or
contaminated
Retry calibration with fresh buffers.
Glass electrode is cracked
The glass may be cracked. Check the glass
impedance value. If it is above 20 megohms,
the glass is not cracked.
Defective preamplifier
If it is a plug-in preamplifier in junction box or
in instrument, replace preamplifier unit. If
preamplifier is integral to sensor, replace
entire sensor.
Electrode is coated
See Section 6.3 for proper sensor cleaning.
After cleaning, glass impedance value will
dramatically drop to a value between 20 and
800 megohms.
Glass electrode has
hairline crack
The glass may be cracked. Check the glass
impedance value. If it is above 20 megohms,
glass is not cracked.
pH reading between 3 and 6
pH regardless of actual pH
of solution or sample
Glass electrode is cracked
Replace sensor.
pH reading is off scale
Defective preamplifier
If it is a remote preamplifier, replace the
preamplifier unit. If preamplifier is integral to
sensor, replace entire sensor.
T.C. element shorted
Check T.C. element (see Section 6.5)
and replace sensor if defective.
Sensor is not in process
or sample stream is low
Make sure sensor is in process with sufficient
sample stream (refer to Section 2.0 for
installation details).
Glass electrode is cracked
or reference element is
shorted
Replace sensor
pH display on instrument jumps
widely while in auto T.C. mode
T.C. element is shorted
Check T.C. element (see Section 6.5)
and replace sensor if defective.
Span between buffers is
extremely short in auto T.C. mode
T.C. element is open
Check T.C. element (see Section 6.5)
and replace sensor if defective.
While sensor is in the process,
the pH reading is sluggish or
slow to change

PROBLEM/SYMPTOM
PROBABLE CAUSE
REMEDY
While pH sensor is in process,
pH reading is not stable,
fluctuates too much
Air bubbles trapped on
glass bulb
Remount sensor in a part of the process
stream where the flow is less turbulent.
Sensor is mounted too
close to pump
Remount sensor in a part of the process
stream where the pumping effect is less
burdensome on the sensor.
Sensor is mounted too
close to chemical addition,
reaction is taking place at
this point and pH is actually changing all the time
Remount sensor in a part of the process
stream where the reaction has stabilized.
Then the pH reading will not seem to
fluctuatetoo much.
pH value of process sensor in
buffer solution doesn’t match
the pH value stated on label
of the buffer solutions
Temperature of the sensor
is not the same as the pH
buffers
Since the pH value of mixtures changes with
temperature, the temperature of the pH
sensor and the buffer solutions must be the
same. Otherwise, pH value will not match
buffer value.
pH value of process sensor in
process grab sample doesn’t
match the grab sample pH
value
Temperature of the process
sensor is not the same as
the temperature of the grab
sample
Since the pH value of mixtures changes with
temperature, the temperature of the pH
sensor and the buffer solutions must be the
same. Otherwise, pH value will not match
buffer value.
Once sensor has been properly
calibrated and placed in the
process stream, pH value
shifts 0.1 to 0.2 pH units or
more within a short period
of time.
Reference is becoming
contaminated
Although an extremely rare case for any
TUpH reference, the reference can become
contaminated with certain substances. If this
is the case, consult Rosemount Analytical
for process stream evaluation.
Process solution ground
loop
If sensor has been verified to work in buffers,
check for ground loops in the following
manner:
1. Connect a heavy gauge wire to the
process piping or in process tank.
2. Place loose end of wire into beaker with
buffer solution and pH sensor. If buffer
value changes the same way that is seen
the the process, then a ground loop has
been confirmed. If symptoms do not
develop but problem still persists, a
ground loop is not ruled out. Consult
Rosemount Analytical for further help
with ground loop problems.
