Emerson designs, manufactures and tests its products to meet many national and international stan-
dards. Because these sensors are sophisticated technical products, you MUST properly install, use,
and maintain them to ensure they continue to operate within their normal specifications. The
following instructions MUST be adhered to and integrated into your safety program when installing,
using, and maintaining Rosemount products. Failure to follow the proper instructions may cause
any one of the following situations to occur: loss of life; personal injury; property damage; damage
to this sensor; and warranty invalidation.
• Read all instructions prior to installing, operating, and servicing the product.
• If you do not understand any of the instructions, contact your Emerson representative for
clarification.
• Follow all warnings, cautions, and instructions marked on and supplied with the product.
• Inform and educate your personnel in the proper installation, operation, and maintenance
of the product.
• Install your equipment as specified in the Installation Instructions of the appropriate
Instruction Manual and per applicable local and national codes. Connect all products to
the proper electrical and pressure sources.
• To ensure proper performance, use qualified personnel to install, operate, update,
program, and maintain the product.
• When replacement parts are required, ensure that qualified people use replacement parts
specified by Emerson. Unauthorized parts and procedures can affect the product's
performance, place the safe operation of your process at risk, and VOID YOUR WARRANTY.
Third-party substitutions may result in fire, electrical hazards, or improper operation.
• Ensure that all equipment doors are closed and protective covers are in place, except when
maintenance is being performed by qualified persons, to prevent electrical shock and
personal injury.

Hazardous Area nstallationN
This sensor is not ntrinsically Safe. or Explosion Proof. nstallations near flammable liquids or in
hazardous area locations must be carefully evaluated by qualified on site safety personnel.
To secure and maintain an intrinsically safe installation, an appropriate transmitter/safety
barrier/sensor combi nation must be used. The installation system must be in accordance with the
governing approval agency (FM, CSA or BASEEFA/CENELEC) hazardous area classification require-

About This Document
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.

Section 1: Description and Specifications
1.1 Features and Applications
Rosemount 396R and 396RVP Sensors are specifically designed for improved life in harsh, dirty
applications where a separate sample stream is difficult to provide and greater insertion depths are
required. These sensors are designed for use with a 1-1/4 in. or 1-1/2 in. ball valve for hot tap
installation. Sensors are constructed of molded polypropylene housed in a titanium tube with EPDM
seals to provide maximum chemical resistance. The sensors feature a shrouded tip for protection
from breakage while allowing process to flow by the glass electrode for accurate and reliable pH
and ORP measurements.

2.2 Unpacking and nspection
nspect the outside of the carton for any damage. f damage is detected, contact the carrier
immediately. nspect the instrument and hardware. Make sure all items in the packing list are
present and in good condition. Notify the factory if any part is missing.
Note: f the sensor is to be stored, the protective boot should be filled with either KCl electrolyte
solution or pH 4.0 buffer solution and replaced on sensor tip until ready to use.
Note: Save the original packing cartons and materials as most carriers require proof of damage due
to mishandling, etc. Also, if it is necessary to return the instrument to the factory, you must pack the
instrument in the same manner as it was received. Refer to Section 8.0 for instructions.
2.3 Mechanical nstallation
The Rosemount 396R Sensor may be installed through a weldalet or in a pipe tee or “Y”, as shown
in Figure 2-1, when used with a ball valve. nsert the end of the sensor to a depth sufficient to ensure
that the glass bulb is continuously wetted by the process fluid. The Rosemount 396R can also be
inserted directly into the process without the use of a ball valve for appli cations not requiring
continuous operation during sensor maintenance.
The sensor must be mounted within 10-90 degrees of the horizontal with the tip pointed
downward, thus keeping air bubbles off of the pH sensitive glass bulb. Bubbles settled on the glass
bulb disrupt the electrical continuity between the pH sensitive glass and the silver/ silver chloride
measuring element.
f the retraction version is to be installed without a ball valve follow the installation procedure for
insertion service (Section 2.3.2). Perform the following steps for sensor installation through a ball
valve:
2.3.1 nstallation Through Ball Valve
1. Carefully remove the liquid filled rubber boot which protects the glass electrode and keeps
the liquid junction wet during shipping and storage. Discard the liquid and boot. Make sure
the lubricated O-ring is in place in the groove inside the male connector on the sensor body.
2. With the male connector on the sensor’s body, insert the sensor into the ball valve until it
gently touches the closed valve. The molded electrode guard will protect the glass bulb
from breakage.
WARN NG
Glass electrode must be wetted at all times (in storage and in line) to maximize sensor life.
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.

Buffer solution, in the protective boot, may cause skin or eye irritation.

nstruction Manual nstallation

3. Thread the male connector body tightly into the ball valve assembly. DO NOT tighten the
hex nut on the male connector body; doing so would not allow the sensor to be inserted
through the ball valve.
4. Pull back hard on the sensor assembly, as if trying to remove the sensor, to be certain that
the sensor cannot come free of the ball valve assembly. The built-in retraction stop will butt
against the shoulder of the male connector if properly installed.
5. After confirming that the sensor assembly is properly secured by the valve assembly, the
valve may be opened and the sensor positioned into the process at the desired depth and
orientation.
6. While holding the sensor in position, tighten the hex nut of the male connector to firmly
secure the sensor in place. When the hex nut is tightened, the Teflon ferrule inside the
compression fitting clamps the sensor tube.
2.3.2 nstallation Without Ball Valve
The Rosemount 396R Sensor may be installed through a weldalet or pipe tee or “Y” when used with
a process connector (PN 23166-00 or 23166-01). The sensor should be installed within 80° of
vertical, with the electrode facing down.
The sensor must be captured by the valve assembly and the male connector so that it cannot be blown
free by process pressure if mishandled during insertion or retraction.
CAUT ON
Over tightening the hex nut may damage the ferrule.
CAUT ON
A stainless steel ferrule is available if the Teflon ferrule does not inadequately grip. When using the
metallic ferrule, care must be taken to avoid over tightening and damaging the sensor tube. f the male
connector leaks during insertion or retraction, replace the O-ring in the male connector.
