ConductivityOn-LineConductivity
Measurement
Conductivity is a well recognized, andsometimes indispensable, parameter ofstate-of-the-art water, wastewater andindustrial process analysis. Continuousmeasuring systems are employed tomonitor the salt load at the influent ofwastewater treatment plants, to controlquality of drinking water and ultra-purewater or to determine non-specificcontaminants in industrial processes.
For more than 40 years, WTW has beenone of the leading manufacturers ofprecision conductivity measurementsystems, setting new standards withinnovative sensor technology and fullyevolved designs tailored to practicalapplications. WTW products meet themost stringent requirements set byindustry for continuous on-line analysisinstruments.

Electrolytic Conductivity
Temperature Compensation
The conductivity of a solution is critically dependent on temperature. Therefore, theconductivity readings must be referred to a common reference temperature (25°C)for comparability. The term “temperature compensation” is used in the sense of a mathematical conversion; i.e. a measured conductivity (ϑ ) at any giventemperature to the corresponding conductivity value that would be taken at thereference temperature (25°C).
The electrolytic conductivity ofmost aqueous solutions variesmore or less linearly with temperature ϑ . In these cases,a linear correction function tocompensate for the influenceof temperature can be used.For example, the correction coefficient for sewage isapprox. 2%/K.
If a non-linear relationshipexists between temperatureand conductivity, (i.e. the coefficient itself varies with temperature) the relationship can as a rule be describedin terms of a 4th order polynomial.
WTW monitors automatically calculate the corrected conductivity values based onthe selected temperature coefficient. For the compensation of natural water a non-linear function (nLF) (i.e., built-in table for natural water properties) is available.

Surface Waters
Conductivity Ranges of Aqueous Solutions Electrolytic conductivity as a summation parameter is a measure of the level of ionconcentration of a solution. The more salts, acids or bases are dissociated, the greaterthe conductivity of the solution. In water or wastewater it is mainly a matter of theions of dissolved salts, and consequently the conductivity is an index of the saltload in wastewater or, respectively, the purity of potable water. The measurementof conductivity is also widely used in industrial production, such as process controlin food and pharmaceutical industries.
The measurement of conductivity is generally expressed in S/cm (or mS/cm) whichis the product of the conductance of the test solution and the geometric factor of the measuring cell. The scale for aqueous solutions starts at a conductivity of0.05 µS/cm (at 25 °C) for ultrapure water. Natural water such as drinking water orsurface water is typically in the range of 100 to 1000 µS/cm. The upper end of thescale is reached by some types of alkalis, such as potassium hydroxide solution, atlevels of more than 1000 mS/cm.

TetraCon®
Exceptional linearity due to 4-electrode design
Elimination of polarizationeffects
Large measuring rangewith only a single cell
Stable cell constant due toabrasion resistant carbonelectrodes
Integrated temperaturesensor
Optimum cell geometrywithout dead volume
Immersion depth of only30 mm required
Highly resistant to foulingcontaminants
Maintenance friendly, rugged design
FeaturesTetraCon® 700
The TetraCon® 4-electrode cell from WTW is the perfect resultof an application-oriented development. Compared withconventional 2-electrode cells, this advanced design providessubstantially better performance, particularly in the higherconductivity ranges.
TetraCon® 700 conductivity sensors are especially suitable foruse in wastewater treatment plants dealing with highly loadedsewage. Due to the special measuring technique employed,severe influences from primary and secondary polarizationeffects are eliminated, resulting in improved accuracy of thesensor. Provided the devices are installed in accordance withthe manufacturer`s instructions, errors due to the distortionof the current and voltage fields are also avoided.
The special cell geometry of the TetraCon® 700 makes it im-pervious to fouling, and the abrasion resistant carbon electrodesare also easy to clean. The modern epoxy resin encapsulationtechnique used diminishes the likelihood of sensor breakagein harsh industrial environments.

trodes produce a stable and constant reference potential. The voltage drop atthe current electrodes is regulated via apotentiostat circuit.

The conductivity of a given electrolyte isdetermined by an electro-chemical re-sistance measurement. In its simplestconfiguration, the measuring cell uses twoelectrodes to which an alternating volta-ge is applied. The electric current whichis directly proportional to the free ions inthe electrolyte is measured. The electronicinstrument then calculates the conduc-tivity of the solution, taking into accountthe absolute cell constant of the sensor.
With the TetraCon® 4-electrode design,two separate electrode pairs are usedwhereby the currentless voltage elec-

Features
Conductivity Monitor
Maximum OperatingReliabilty
On-line analysis systems, particularlyprocess instruments, are subject to everincreasing requirements in terms ofoperating safety. In its EcoLine Series,WTW has taken full account of this byincorporating extensive electronicprotection circuitry. An integrated coarseand fine lightning protection, extremeEMI and RFI immunity, and galvanicallyisolated inputs and outputs are someof the safety features which result inmaximum reliabilty and confidence inoperation of the LF 170 monitor.
Programmable RelayFunctions
The two control/alarm relays can beconfigured by the user as either NC orNO contacts. Any relay can also beassigned a special function, (e.g. as alimit monitor), the relevant functionalparameters being defined in a sub-menu.When a control mode for a relay isselected, the upper or lower setpoint isentered, followed by the hysteresis(deadband) and the delay time. The
variable hysteresis defines a symmetricaltolerance band around the limit valuewhich the measured value must exceedor fall below respectively for the relayoutput to trigger.
User Friendly Operation
A clear and simple menu structure guidesusers through the programming, set-upprocedure, and general operation of themonitor. The instrument software,therfore, is arranged in three hierarchicalprogram levels.
For ease of operation, measurement andcalibration mode are selected via twopush-buttons on the keypad. For custo-mizing of the instrument, the user canchoose either of two program levels. InCON level the basic configuration ofthe instrument is defined; i.e., definitionof operational functions that suit theapplication. Operating and functionalparameters are entered in PAR level.
A security code protects the two proce-dural program levels from unauthorizedaccess. To prevent operator error, aforced guide through the programsequence is predefined.

Measuring Ranges and CellConstants
With fixed and variable cell constantsettings, and a choice of 7 measuringranges, the LF 296 monitor provides ahigh degree of flexibility. Through it,this panel mount unit is suitable for abroad range of applications from ultra-pure water, to sewage, to specializedindustrial measurements.
Programmable RelayFunctions
The two control/alarm relays can beconfigured by the user as either NC orNO contacts. Any relay can also beassigned a special function, (e.g. as alimit monitor), the relevant functionalparameters being defined in a sub-menu.When a control mode for a relay isselected, the upper or lower setpoint isentered, followed by the hysteresis(deadband) and the delay time.
The variable hysteresis defines a symmet-rical tolerance band around the limitvalue which the measured value mustexceed or fall below respectively for therelay output to trigger.
RS 485 Serial Interface
By means of the RS 485 serial interfaceup to 31 monitors of the QuadroLine®
Series can be linked to a host computeror a work station via a common bussystem. For the physical connection ofthe units, three-wire technology (diffe-rential signals a/b and equipotentialbonding) is recommended, as thisfacilitates reliable data transmission evenover long distances.
In a Master/Slave operation mode theinstruments (slaves) are controlled bythe host computer (master) via theirindividual bus addresses; a communica-tion protocol is not included with theinterface.
Integration with a higher level PROFIBUS-DP network can be accomplished usinga special gateway.
