1.1General
TheQ46F/82 DirectFluoride Systemisan on-line monitoringsystemdesigned
forthe continuousmeasurementoffluorideion insolution.Thesystemis
designed tomeasurefluoride ion directlywithouttheuseofchemicalbuffersand
issuitableforpotablewatersystemswithstablepHandconductivity.It is
especiallyusefulforapplicationswherethe useofchemicalsisundesirable.
Thefull scaleoperating rangeofthesystemmaybe selected bythe userfor0-
20.00PPM,0-200.0PPM,or0-2000 PPM.The analogoutputsignalmaybe
spanned forsmallerrangeswithinthe overalloperatingranges.Becausewater
isflowingthroughtheflowcell atalowrate,thisunitcannotbeexposed to
temperaturesbelow0°C.
Thebasicsensingelement used inthemonitorisafluoride ionselective
electrode(ISE).Thissensorcontainsalanthanumfluoride crystalthat generates

chloride referenceelectrode containedinthe samesensorbodyprovidesthe
secondhalf of themeasurement cell. BecauseISEelectrodesrespond toactivity
