INTRODUCTION
The ModelA15/82 isan on-line monitoring systemdesigned forthe continuousmeasurementofthe
fluoride ion (F-)inaqueoussolutions.The monitoring systemprovidesmeasurementsbetween 0.1and 1000
PPM.The unitissetup atthe factory foradefaultrange of0-10 PPM,butcan be changed tohigherrangesof
0-100 or0-1000 PPM byproperfieldcalibration.The analog outputsignalmaybe spanned forsmallerranges
withinthe overall operating rangesifdesired.A15/82 monitorsaredesigned tooperateon sampletemperatures
from0°to50 °C.Becausewaterisflowing through the chemistry moduleatalowrate,thisunitcannotbe
exposed totemperaturesbelow0°C.
The basicsensing elementused inthe monitorisafluoride ion selectiveelectrode (ISE).Thissensor
containsalanthanumfluoride crystalthatgeneratesavoltage proportionaltothe activityoffluoride ion in
solution.Asilver/silverchloride referenceelectrode contained inthe samesensorbodyprovidesthe second half
ofthe measurementcell.BecauseISE electrodesrespond toactivityratherthan concentration,asmall amount
ofbufferismetered intothe sampletoprovide aconstantbackground condition.Withotherparametersheld
constant, fluoride activityand fluoride concentration arecloselyrelated.Atemperatureelementinthe
measuring chamberprovidesautomatictemperaturecompensation forthe system.
A15/82 monitorsincorporatean automaticcalibration featurethatmaintainshigh measurementaccuracy
overlong operating periods.The automaticcalibration systemfeedsaknownfluoride standardintothe system
atan operatorprogrammablefrequency suchasevery 24 hours,every 3days,orsomeotherconvenient
interval.Automaticcalibration can be done atanyintervalbetween 1and 999 hours.During calibration,analog
outputand relaysareheldatthe valuesmeasured justbeforeinitiation ofthe calibration sequence.Analarm
relaycan be used toindicateacalibration failure.
