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.

WARNING
Retractable sensors must not be inserted nor retracted
when process pressures are in excess of 64 psig
(542kPa) for option 21 or 35 psig (343 kPa) for option 25.
WARNING
System pressure may cause the sensor to blow out with
great force unless care is taken during removal. 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.
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.
STORAGE
ELECTRODE PREPARATION
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.
1. Remove electrode from shipping container.
2. Remove the protective boot covering the electrode
bulb.
3. Rinse away salt film with clean water, then gently
shake the electrode so that the internal solution fills
the bulb, thus removing any air trapped there.

CAUTION
The buffer in the protective boot may cause skin or
eye irritation
INSTALLATION
MAINTENANCE FOR pH ELECTRODES
For sensor dimensions, see Figures 1 and 2.
For sensor orientation and installation, see Figures 3 - 5.
For wiring, see Figures 6 - 32.
Electrodes should respond rapidly. Sluggishness, offsets, and erratic readings are indicators that the electrodes may need cleaning or replacement.
pH SENSOR CALIBRATION AND
MAINTENANCE
TWO POINT pH 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.

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).
ORP SENSOR CALIBRATION AND
MAINTENANCE
CALIBRATION
1. After making an electrical connection between the
sensor and the instrument, obtain a standard solution of saturated quinhydrone. This can also be
made quite simply by adding a few crystals of quinhydrone to either pH 4 or pH 7 buffer. Quinhydrone
is only slightly soluble, therefore only a few crystals
will be required.
2. Immerse the sensor in the standard solution. Allow
1-2 minutes for the ORP sensor to stabilize.
3. Adjust the standardize control of the instrument to
the solution value shown in the table below. 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 the table below. 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.
4. Remove the sensor from the buffer, rinse, and
install in the process.

MAINTENANCE FOR ORP ELECTRODES
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. ORP (metallic) electrodes should be polished with
moistened baking soda.

RETRACTION
CAUTION
WARNING
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.
Failure to withdraw the sensor completely may
result in damage to the sensor when the valve is
closed.
4.
A. Model 398R-21 (21” tube)
1. Be certain system pressure at the sensor is below
64 psig (542 kPa) before proceeding with the
retraction. It is also recommended that the personnel wear a face shield and have a stable footing.
Push in on the sensor end or the top of the J-box
and slowly loosen the hex nut (B) of the process
end male connector (A).
B. Model 398R-25 (36” tube)
2. Be certain that pressure at the sensor is below 35
psig (343 KPa) before proceeding with the retraction. It is also recommended that the personnel
wear a face shield and have a stable footing. Push
in on the sensor end or the top of the J-box and
slowly loosen the hex nut (B) of the process end
male connector (A).
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.
CAUTION
If the male connector leaks during insertion or
retraction, replace the O-ring (PN 9550099) in the
male connector A.
When the hex nut is loose enough, slowly ease the
sensor back completely until the retraction stop
collar is reached.
The right people,
the right answers,
right now.
The Male Connector Body (A) may now be completely unthreaded from the reducing coupling and
the sensor removed for servicing.
CAUTION
Do not remove nut at this time.
3.
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.
