1.1
Features and Applications
389VP triple-junction sensors are now offered with SMART capabilities. SMART option becomes
enabled when use with the 1056, 1057, 1066, 56 instruments and on 6081P wireless transmitter. The
pH-loop capabilities include auto-recognition of the SMART sensor, automatic upload of calibration
data and associated time stamp, historical recording of pH diagnostics (slope, offset, reference impedance, glass impedance). This trending data allows technicians to predict frequency of maintenance
and estimate sensor life for a particular process condition. Additional SMART features include factory
calibration, resetting SMART sensor calibration data with user menus without power cycling, and manufacturing information.
The reference junction aids in the sensor’s resistance to poisoning ions and helps prolong sensor
life. 389VP sensors have a triple junction reference, which protects the reference element from poisoning ions — such as ammonia, chlorine, cyanides, and sulfides — in the process. Both models are
made with an outer ceramic junction constructed in an annular design around the pH/ORPsensitive
membrane.
The AccuGLASS™ pH glass formulations exceed industry standards. The AccuGlass pH glass is a
result of many years of glass research resulting in a formulation which has been found to increase the
life of the sensor. Unlike other pH glasses presently on the market, this glass resists cracking especially
at higher temperatures and reduces sodium ion error commonly found in high pH applications.
Overall, the AccuGlass formulation enhances the sensor performance to measure pH more accurately
and have a longer sensor life than ever before.
A choice of pH glass electrodes is available to best meet various application needs. Two types
are available: hemi bulb and high pH glass. The ACCUGLASS hemi bulb is the standard glass offered
on both models and can be used for most applications. The hemi bulb is also found on the high pH
glass option.
The 389VP is offered with a watertight sensor-tocable connector which eliminates re-wiring and
cable twisting when replacing sensors. The Variopol VP multiple pin connector is an integral part of
each sensor model and uses a mating VP cable. Once the cable is installed and wired to the analyzer,
sensors are easily replaced without replacing the cable and without rewiring the analyzer. Also the
cable can be disconnected from the sensor before removal from the process which eliminates cable
twisting. VP8 cable assembly works both with VP8 and VP6 sensor connector.
The 389VP has a molded Tefzel body with Viton o-rings, making each sensor very robust and
chemically resistant. Complete encapsulation eliminates leakage or high humidity problems traditionally found in other pH/ORP designs. The simplified construction, designed with user convenience in mind does not require electrolyte (KCl) replenishment or any high maintenance troubleshooting procedures.
NEW - SMART preamplifier is the standard option. A preamplifier converts the high impedance
pH signal into a stable, noise-free signal and must be used with all pH sensors. Our preamplifier
method has become the industry standard for pH/ORP measurement reliability.
The 389VP is a combination sensor (pH, reference, and temperature within sensor body) and
measures pH or ORP (Oxidation/Reduction Potential) of aqueous solutions in pipelines, open

tanks, or ponds. The 389VP is suitable for virtually all applications and is compatible with
Rosemount Analytical and other manufacturers’ instruments.
Installation is easily achieved through the wide variety of mounting configurations. 389VP features
a 1 inch (MNPT) front and rear facing connections for insertion, submersion, or flow-through pH
and ORP applications.

Section 2: 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 hardware. Make sure all the items in the packing list are present and in good
condition. Notify the factory if any part is missing. If the instrument appears to be in satisfactory
condition, proceed to Section 2.2, Mounting.
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 for return instructions. If the sensor is to be stored, the vinyl boot should be filled with pH buffer solution and
replaced on sensor tip until ready for use.
CAUTION
Buffer solution in the vinyl boot may cause skin or eye irritation.
WARNING
Glass electrode must be wetted at all times (in storage and in line) to maximize sensor life.
2.2
Mounting
The sensor has been designed to be located in industrial process environments. Temperature and
pressure limitations must not be exceeded at any time. A Caution label regarding this matter is
attached to the sensor with the cable. Please do not remove the label. See Figure 2-1.
CAUTION
Internal electrolyte fill may cause skin or eye irritation
Mounting Guidelines:
1. Shake down the sensor to remove any air bubbles that may be present inside the tip of the pH
glass.
2. Do not install the sensor on the horizontal. The sensor must be 10° off the horizontal to ensure
accuracy.
3. Do not install the sensor upside down.
4. With the standard recessed electrode, air bubbles may become trapped in the sensor end. This
problem is most commonly encountered in areas of low flow or during calibration. Shake the
probe while immersed in solution to remove bubbles.
In most cases, the pH sensor can simply be installed as shipped, and readings with an accuracy of
± 0.2 pH may be obtained. To obtain greater accuracy or to verify proper operation, the sensor
must be calibrated as a loop with its compatible analyzer or transmitter.

2.2.1
389VP Instruction Manual
PN 51-389VP
Submersion Mounting
The 389 and 389VP Sensor has a 1 in. MNPT process connection at the back of the sensor. Utilizing
a standard 1 in. union, the sensor may be mounted to a 1 in. SCH 80 CPVC or PVDF standpipe.
Tapered pipe threads in plastic tend to loosen after installation. It is therefore recom mended that
Teflon1 tape be used on the threads and that the tightness of the connection be checked frequently to assure that no loosening has occurred. To prevent rain water or condensation from running into the sensor, a weatherproof junction box is recommended (See Figure 2-2). The sensor
cable must be run through a protective conduit for isolation from electrical interference or physical abuse from the process. The sensor should be installed within 80° of vertical, with the electrode
facing down. The sensor’s cable should not be run with power or control wiring.
2.2.2
Flow Through and Insertion Mounting
The 389 and 389VP Sensor also has a 1 in. MNPT process connection at the front of the sensor for
mounting into a 1-1/4 in. tee or the process. See Figure 2-3 for instal lation configurations.
NOTE: LARGE PIPE WRENCHES MUST NOT BE USED TO TIGHTEN THE SENSOR INTO A FLANGE OR
OTHER TYPE OF MOUNTING.
2.3
Electrical Installation
Figures 2-5 thru 2-22 provide the guidelines for wiring the 389VP sensor to various
Analyzer/Transmitter instruments.
To determine which wiring guideline to use, locate the code number of the sensor to be installed.
This number is stamped in the body of the sensor.
1. If the cable needs to be extended, use a high quality four conductor shielded instrument cable
available from Rosemount Analytical.
NOTE: If the cable is too long, loop up the excess cable. If the cable has to be shortened, splice and
terminate each conductor neatly and make sure that the overall (outermost) drain wire is not
shorted out with either of the two inner drain wires (shields).
2. Signal cable should be run in a dedicated conduit (preferably an earth grounded metallic conduit) and should be kept away from AC power lines. For your convenience, a spade lug kit is furnished (in a plastic bag wrapped around the cable).

Section 3: Start-up and Calibration
3.1
Sensor Preparation
Shake down the sensor to remove any air bubbles that may be present at the tip of the pH glass
bulb. In most cases, the pH sensor can simply be installed as shipped and readings with an accuracy of ± 0.2 pH may be obtained. To obtain greater accuracy or to verify proper operation, the sensor must be calibrated as a loop with its compatible analyzer or transmitter.
3.2
389VP pH Calibration
1. After a temporary connection is established between the sensor and the instrument, a buffer
calibration may be performed.
2. Consult appropriate pH/ORP analyzer or transmitter instruction manual for specific calibration
and standardization procedures, or see below for recommended two point buffer calibration
procedure.
3.2.1
Recommended two point buffer calibration procedure
Select two stable buffer solutions, preferably pH 4.0 and 10.0 (pH buffers other than pH 4.0 and
pH 10.0 can be used as long as the pH values are at least two pH units apart).
NOTE: A pH 7 buffer solution reads a mV value of approx. zero, and pH buffers read approx. +/59.1 mV for each pH unit above or below pH 7. Check the pH buffer manufacturer specifications
for millivolt values at various temperatures since it may affect the actual value of the buffer solution mV/pH value.
1. Immerse sensor in the first buffer solution. Allow sensor to adjust to the buffer temperature
(to avoid errors due to temperature differences between the buffer solution and sensor temperature) and wait for reading to stabilize. The value of buffer can now be acknowledged by
analyzer/transmitter.
2. Once the first buffer has been acknowledged by the analyzer/transmitter, rinse the buffer solution off of the sensor with distilled or deionized water.
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 using the second buffer solution.
4. Once the analyzer/transmitter has acknowledged both buffer solutions, a sensor slope
(mV/pH) is established (the slope value can be found within the analyzer/transmitter).
5. The slope value should read about 59.1 mV/pH for a new sensor and will decrease over time
to approximately 47 - 49 mV/pH. Once the slope reads below the 47-49 mV/pH range, a new
sensor should be installed to maintain accurate readings.
3.2.2
Recommended pH Sensor Standardization
For maximum accuracy, the sensor can be standardized on-line or with a process grab sample after
a buffer calibration has been performed and the sensor has been conditioned to the process.
Standardization accounts for the sensor junction potential and other interferences.
Standardization will not change the sensor’s slope but will simply adjust the analyzers reading to
match that of the known process pH.
1. While obtaining a process solution sample (it is recommended that the sample is taken close
to the sensor), record the pH value that is shown on the analyzer/transmitter display.
Start-up and Calibration
17
Section 3: Start-up and Calibration
389VP Instruction Manual
January 2013
PN 51-389VP
2. Measure and record the pH of the process solution sample with a another temperature compensated, calibrated pH instrument. For best results, standardization should be performed at
the process temperature.
3. Adjust the analyzer/transmitter value to the standardized value.
3.3
389VP ORP
Most industrial applications have a number of ORP reactions occurring in sequence or simultaneously. There can be several components that are oxidized or reduced by the reagents that are used.
Theoretically, the ORP potential is absolute because it is the result of the oxidationreduction equilibrium. However, the actual measured potential is dependent on many factors, including the condition of the surface of the ORP platinum electrode. Therefore, the sensor should be allowed 1-2
hours to become “conditioned” to the stream when first set-up or after being cleaned.
3.3.1
Calibration
CAUTION
The solution used during the following check is an acid and should be handled with care. Follow the
directions of the acid manufacturer. Wear the proper protective equipment. Do not let the solution
come in contact with skin or clothing. If contact with skin is made, immediately rinse with clean water.
1. Make a temporary electrical connection between the sensor and the instrument.
2. Obtain a standard solution of saturated quinhydrone (PN R508-160Z). This can be made quite
simply by adding a few crystals of quinhydrone to either pH 4 or pH 7 buffer. Quinhydrone is
only slightly soluble, but only a few crystals will be required (refer to Section 4.3.1 for an alternate ORP standard solution).
3. Immerse the sensor in the standard solution. Allow 1-2 minutes for the ORP sensor to stabilize.
4. Adjust the standardize control of the transmitter to the solution value shown in Table 3-1. The
resulting potentials, measured with a clean platinum electrode and saturated KCl/AgCl reference electrode, should be within ±20 millivolts of the value shown in Table 3-1. Solution temperature must be noted to ensure accurate interpretation of results. The ORP value of saturated quinhydrone solution is not stable over long periods of time. Therefore, these standards
should be made up fresh each time they are used.

Section 4: Maintenance
The 389VP Sensor requires minimum maintenance. The sensor should be kept clean and free of
debris and sediment at all times. The frequency of cleaning by wiping or brushing with a soft cloth
or brush is determined by the nature of the solution being measured. The sensor should be
removed from the process periodically and checked in buffer solutions.
WARNING
BEFORE REMOVING THE SENSOR, be absolutely certain that the process pressure is reduced to 0 psig
and the process temperature is lowered to a safe level!
If the sensor will not calibrate, refer to your analyzer/transmitter instruction manual for proper test
procedures. If it is determined that the sensor has failed, it should be discarded and replaced.
4.1
Electrode Cleaning
If the electrode is coated or dirty, clean as follows:
1. Remove the sensor from process.
2. Wipe the glass bulb with a soft, clean, lint free cloth or tissue. If this does not remove the dirt
or coating, go to Step 3 (detergents clean oil and grease; acids remove scale.)
3. Wash the glass bulb in a strong detergent solution, and rinse it in clean water. If this does not
clean the glass bulb, go to Step 4.
CAUTION
The solution used during the following check is an acid and should be handled with care. Follow the
directions of the acid manufacturer. Wear the proper protective equipment. Do not let the solution
come in contact with skin or clothing. If contact with skin is made, immediately rinse with clean water.
4. Wash the glass bulb in a dilute 5% hydro chloric acid solution, and rinse with clean water.
Soaking the sensor overnight in the acid solution can improve cleaning action.
Replace the sensor if it cannot be cleaned.

Automatic Temperature Compensator
The temperature compensator element is a temperature sensitive resistor and can be checked
with an ohmmeter. Resistance increases with temperature.
The 3K element will read 3000 ohms ± 1% at 25°C (77°F), and a Pt100 will read 110 ohms.
Resistance varies with temperature for a 3K and Pt-100 element and can be determined according
to Table 4-2 or the following formula:
RT = RO [1 + R1 (T-20)]
Where Rt = Resistance
T = Temperature in °C
Refer to Table 4-1 for RO and R1 values.

4.3.1
Platinum Electrode Check
The platinum electrode may be checked as follows. There are two types of standard solutions
which may be used to check the ORP electrode/transmitter system:
Type 1: One type of commonly used ORP standard solution is the saturated quinhydrone solution
(PN R508-160Z). Refer to Section 3.3.
CAUTION
The solution used during the following check is an acid and should be handled with care. Follow the
directions of the acid manufacturer. Wear the proper protective equipment. If contact with skin of
clothing is made, immediately rinse with plenty of clean water.
Type 2: A second ORP standard solution can be prepared from the following recipe: Dissolve 39.2
grams of reagent grade ferrous ammonium sulfate, Fe(NH4)2 (SO4)2 • 6H2O and 48.2 grams of
reagent grade ferric ammonium sulfate, FeNH4(SO4)2 • 12H2O, in approximately 700 milliliters of
water (distilled water is preferred, but tap water is acceptable). Slowly and carefully add 56.2 milliliters of concentrated sulfuric acid. Add sufficient water to bring the total solution volume up to
1000 ml. This standard ORP solution, although not as simple to prepare as the quinhydrone recipe,
is much more stable, and will maintain its millivolt value for approximately one year when stored
in glass containers. This solution (ferric/ferrous ammonium sulfate) will produce a nominal ORP of

476 +20 mV at 25°C when used with a saturated KCl/AgCl reference electrode and platinum measuring electrode. Some tolerance in mV values is to be expected due to the rather large liquid reference junction potentials that can arise when measuring this strongly acidic and concentrated
solution. However, if the measuring electrodes are kept clean and in good operating condition,
consistently repeatable calibrations can be carried out using this standard solution.
4.3.2
Cleaning Platinum Electrode
The electrode can be restored to normal operation by simply cleaning the platinum electrode with
baking soda. Polish it by rubbing it with a damp paper towel and baking soda until a bright, shiny
appearance is attained.
