3) Mounting the Control Panel:
Mounting Requirements:
•
•
•
•
Select a location that is easily accessible at grade level.
Mounting holes are provided for easy installation.
Shade is required if mounting outdoors where ambient temps can exceed 100⁰ F.
Do not mount the analyzer in such a way to make it difficult to operate the
customer-provided electrical disconnect device (switch, breaker or other)
Antenna Connection:
•
•
16dB Antenna is provided along with a 90 degree fitting.
The Antenna is attached to the bulkhead fitting on the upper left of the Analyzer
Panel using the 90 degree fitting (see Figure 2).
Pass-through for Electrical Wires:
• The Verax CTX Control Panel is shipped without holes or wire ways for incoming
electrical service or optical fibers.
• Control Panel penetrations are made by the customer in order to provide the
maximum flexibility for routing incoming fiber and electrical and communications.
• All connections or fittings chosen by the customer should by rated for Type 4
enclosure.
• All ports and penetrations must be plugged with duct putty or some other standard
industry practice to assure the sealed integrity of the enclosure.
• The customer should plan for the following when choosing the size and placement of
ports on the Verax CTX Control Panel:
• One Incoming Electrical Cable
• One Incoming Communications Cable (usually CAT5)
• One RTD Cable from each Flow Cell
• One Transducer Cable from each Flow Cell
• Two Fiber Optic Cables from each Flow Cell
• The customer is responsible to protect the inside of the control panel when cutting
or punching holes. DO NOT ALLOW METAL SHAVINGS TO FALL ON THE TERMINAL
BLOCKS OR OTHER COMPONENTS INSIDE THE CONTROL PANEL.

4) Mounting the Flow Cell:
Placement:
•
•
The Flow Cells can be mounted to a unistrut frame, or other solid structure.
Probes should be accessible at grade level.
Pressure and Temp Rating:
•
•
•
Operational Max Pressure: 1500 psi

Figure 3 – Example of a

•
Flow Cell should be mounted horizontally, as
shown in Figure 3.
For a bypass Flow Cell, the customer taps into the
process stream and plumbs the fluid to the inlet
on Flow Cell, then from the Flow Cell outlet back
to the process stream.
The customer provides all materials for the
bypass plumbing.
It is recommended that the customer use a
stinger at the inlet and return points in order to
pull fluid from the center of the pipe.
½” Swagelok fittings are supplied on the inlet and
return ports on the Flow Cell.
The customer must assure flow of liquid or gas
over the probe windows by providing a pressure
drop of at least 1 psi from inlet to outlet. To get
a good delta P, choose your inlet and return
points such that flanges, valves, meters or
similar instruments are located between these
two points, as these often provide the necessary
bypass pressure differential.
When using a heater blanket with the Flow Cell,
120VAC, 2 Amp service is required. A 5’ pigtail is
provided on the blanket.

Scoop Configuration:
•
•
•
•
With this configuration a scoop is used to direct flow from the pipe to the probe using
the kinetic energy of the process stream itself. With a scoop, a pressure differential is
not required, and often a bi-direction scoop can be used such that only one tap is
necessary.
However, certain process flow and pipe conditions must be met in order to use the
scoop. Consult your local JP3 representative to discuss options.
½” Swagelok fittings are supplied on the inlet and return ports of the Flow Cell.
When using a heater blanket with the Flow Cell, 120VAC, 2 Amp service is required. The
junction box must be within 4 feet of the Flow Cell.
Figure 4 – Example of a
Scoop Configuration
A bidirectional scoop is shown in this
image – the stinger has a double
chamber, and both inlet and return is
achieved with the same tap.

Warning – Read Carefully

•
JP3’s Verax Technology uses unique large core multi-mode fiber to attenuate the
optical signal between the control panel to Flow Cell.
The large core NIR cable is sensitive to sharp bend angles and contamination. Handle
very carefully to avoid kinks and keep the ends capped until ready to commission.
Maintain a minimum 7” bend radius when running/routing the fiber from control box
to Flow Cell.
When pulling the fiber, do not attach pull ropes to the boots at the ends of the fiber –
you can damage the boot.
Keep the fiber ends capped until you a are ready to connect the ends.

6) Flow Cell to Control Panel Connections
Fiber:
•
•
•
•
Run Fiber Optic Pair between the Flow Cell and CTX Control Panel according to the
specification in Section 5 of this Instructions.
JP3 will provide the Optical Fiber Pairs (Send and Receive) for each probe set, cut to
length.
A pull apparatus is provided on one end of the fiber if the customer is pulling through
conduit. Do not remove and pull the fiber by applying force to the termination boot.
This can cause damage to the fiber
At Commissioning, JP3 Field Operations professionals will clean and terminate the
optical fibers in order to assure the best possible optical signal between the CTX Panel
and Flow Cell. Therefore:
o Do not terminate the fibers at Flow Cell, or Control Panel.
o Do not remove protective caps at the fiber ends.

Electrical:
•
•
•
•
The customers will provide all electrical cables between Flow Cell and CTX Control
Panel.
For the Temperature RTD run a 3-conductor cable between each Flow Cell and the
Control Panel.
For Pressure Transducer run a 4-conductor cable between each Flow Cell and the
Control Panel.
For both RTD and Transducer a 4-5’ pigtail is provided at the Flow Cell. These should be
connected to the customer-provided cable in such a way as to comply with the site’s
electrical and safety standards.
Wire the Flow Cell to the Control Panel:
•
•
•
•
Inside the Control Panel the RTD and Transducer terminals blocks are numbered 1-4
which corresponds to each flow cell, 1-4 (see Figure 6).
All Fiber Optics, RTD, and Transducer terminations from the flow cell should use the
same number designation inside the panel.
Connect the RTD cable from each Flow Cell to its corresponding RTD terminal block:
•
one red wire to the third terminal from the left,
•
the second red wire to the second terminal from the left,
•
the white wire to the far left terminal.
Connect the Transducer cable from each Flow Cell to its corresponding Transducer
terminal block:
•
Brown wire on the fourth terminal from the left,
•
Red on the third terminal from the left,
•
Black on the second terminal from the left,
•
Gray on the far left terminal.

the connections during servicing. A box for storage of the caps is provided in the
bottom of the CTX Control Panel.
All Fiber Optics, RTD, and Transducer terminations from the flow cell should use the
same number designation inside the panel.
