& 3800VP
Remarks: Suitable for all Rosemount pH-instruments. Quality
certification includes list of wetted materials and calibration records
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!
ATEX DIRECTIVE
Special Conditions for safe use
1. All pH/ORP sensors have a plastic enclosure
which must only be cleaned with a damp cloth to
avoid the danger due to a build up of an electrostatic charge.
2. All pH/ORP sensor Models are intended to be in
contact with the process fluid and may not meet
the 500V r.m.s. a.c. test to earth. This must be
taken into consideration at installation.
CAUTION
SENSOR/PROCESS APPLICATION COMPATIBILITY
The wetted sensor materials may not be compatible
with process composition and operating conditions.
Application compatibility is entirely the responsibility
of the user.
WARNING
Do not exceed temperature and pressure limitations
of 140°C (284°F) and 72 psig (600 kPa, 6 bar).
CAUTION
Internal electrolyte fill solution may cause skin or
eye irritation.
STORAGE
1. It is recommended that electrodes be stored in their original shipping containers until needed.
2. Do not store at temperatures below -5°C (23°F).
3. Electrodes should be stored with a protective cap containing KCl solution (PN 9210342).
4. For overnight storage, immerse the sensor in tap water or 4 pH buffer solution.
5. A pH glass electrode does have a limited shelf life of one year.
ELECTRODE PREPARATION
1. Remove electrode from shipping container.
2. Remove the protective boot covering the electrode bulb.
3. Rinse away salt film with clean water, then shake the electrode so that the internal solution fills the bulb, thus
removing any air trapped there.
NOTE
Do not allow lubricant to coat electrode bulb or reference junction. If it does, wipe it clean before installation.
INSTALLATION
For sensor orientation, see Figure 2.
For wiring, see Figures 3 through 13.

TWO POINT BUFFER CALIBRATION
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 approximately ±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 equilibrate to the buffer temperature (to avoid errors
due to temperature differences between the buffer solution and sensor temperature) and wait for reading to
stabilize. 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. The theoretical slope value, according to the Nernst equation for calculating pH, is approximately 59.17
mV/pH. Over time the sensor will age, both in the process and in storage, and will result in reduced slope values. To ensure accurate readings, it is recommended that the electrode be replaced when the slope value falls
below 47 to 49 mV/pH.
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 analyzer’s reading to match that of the known process pH.
MAINTENANCE
Electrodes should respond rapidly. Sluggishness, offsets, and erratic readings are indicators that the electrodes
may need cleaning or replacement.
1. To remove oil deposit, clean the electrode with a mild non-abrasive detergent.
2. To remove scale deposits, soak electrodes for 30 to 60 minutes in a 5% hydrochloric acid solution.
3. Temperature effect on life expectancy: If glass electrode life expectancy is 100% @ 25°C (77°F), then it will be
approximately 25% @ 80°C (176°F), and approximately 5% @ 120°C (248°F).

Note: If no there is no temperature compensation (RTD), then install a 100-ohm resistor between TB1-1 and TB1-3,
and install a jumper between TB1-1 and TB1-2.
