2. Product Description
This chapter contains technical data, requirements and perfor-
mance data.
2.1. Description of the System
The portable AMI INSPECTOR instrument is a complete monitoring
system mounted on a small panel with supporting stand and a re-
chargeable battery for stand-alone operation (>24h), designed as
an inspection equipment for quality assurance of online process
monitors.
Features General Features of AMI INSPECTORs are:
Battery life after full charge:
– >24h at full load (use of 3 relays, USB, signal output, logger)
– >36h at minimum load (use of logger only)
Charging time: approx. 6 hours
Controlled shut-down if battery is empty.
Display of remaining battery life in hours.
For longer battery life the back light of the LC Display is dis-
abled.
Continuous operation using power adapter. The battery
should be discharged at least once a month (normal usage
until the monitor automatically shuts down).
Battery The Li-Ion battery is located in the housing of the AMI transmitter.
See chapter Power Supply, p. 19 regarding power supply and
charging of the battery.
Safety features No data loss after power failure, all data is saved in non-volatile
memory. Over voltage protection of in- and outputs.
Galvanic separation of measuring inputs and signal outputs.
USB interface Built in USB interface for logger download. Use the USB stick sup-
plied by Swan only (other USB sticks can dramatically reduce bat-
tery life).
Signal Output
(optional)
One signal output programmable for measured values (freely
scaleable, linear or bilinear) or as continuous control output (control
parameters programmable).
Current loop: 0/4–20 mA
Maximal burden: 510 

measuring values, controllers or timer for system cleaning with au-
tomatic hold function.

Open during normal operation, closed on error and loss of
power.
Closed during normal operation, open on error and loss of
power.
Summary alarm indication for programmable alarm values and in-
strument faults.
Input For potential-free contact to freeze the measuring value or to inter-
rupt control in automated installations (hold function or remote-off)
Measuring
principle
Clark principle:
The sensor consists of one noble metal electrode (e.g. platinum or
gold), a reference electrode (mostly Ag/AgCl) and optionally a met-
al guard electrode.
The Clark-type electrode is the most widely used oxygen sensor for
measuring oxygen dissolved in a liquid. The basic principle is that
there is a cathode and an anode submersed in an electrolyte and a
voltage is applied between the two parts. Oxygen enters the sensor
through a permeable membrane by diffusion, and is reduced at the
cathode according to
O2+ 4e-+ 2 H2O --> 4 OH-
This reaction creates a measurable current. There is a linear cor-
relation between the oxygen concentration and the electrical cur-
rent.
The guard electrode is on the same voltage level as the cathode
but there is no current measurement. Oxygen which diffuses from
the electrolyte to the cathode is consumed by the guard electrode.
As a consequence, residual oxygen in the electrolyte will no more
disturb the measurement signal and the response time to low oxy-
gen levels will be shorter.
Temperature
compensation
The measuring signal depends on temperature, but is automatically
compensated to 25 °C. The sample temperature is determined con-
tinuously by a temperature sensor inside the oxygen electrode.

Fluidics Swansensor oxygen combined with QV-flow PMMA OTG flow cell.
The sample flows via sample inlet [E] through the flow regulating
valve [D], where the flow rate can be adjusted. Then the sample
flows into the measuring cell [C] were the Oxygen concentration
and temperature of the sample is measured.
The sample leaves the measuring cell via flow sensor [B] through
the sample outlet [F].
