Performance specifications
The process photometer Testomat 2000®Polymer is a robust wet-
chemical online monitor for monitoring the polyacrylate content from
0 to 50 mg/l (ppm) (with the factor set to 1.00) using the photometric
analysis principle. Analysis is carried out by adding two reagents; the
analysis result is displayed after a reaction time of approx. 7 minutes
(absolute measuring time without flushing times).
By means of the adjustable factor ranging from 0.01 to 99.99,
a measuring range from 0.5 to 4,999.5 mg/l (ppm) is
achieved.
The factor must be checked on site! (see page 24)
Simple, menu-driven operating and programming via a plain
text display
Freely selectable unit in ppm or mg/l
Analysis initiation:
- Automatic interval operation
(Interval pause adjustable from 0 to 255 minutes)
- External control
- Volume controlled (water meter)
Two independent limit values with hysteresis (1, 2 or 3 bad
analyses) and adjustable switch functions
Monitoring of two measuring points (change-over via external
solenoid valves)
Internal error documentation
Programmable service address
Programmable maintenance interval for a maintenance
