Residual Chlorine Analyzer (Reagent Type) RC400G
The RC400G residual chlorine analyzer employs a polarographic system that uses rotating platinum electrodes to provide continuous online measurement of residual chlorine concentration. By appropriate use of reagents, it is possible to separate residual chlorine (free chlorine + combined-chlorine) from free chlorine for measurement.
The RC400G is an intelligent residual chlorine analyzer that makes extensive use of microprocessors. Its design is based on the know-how gained through Yokogawa's many years of experience with residual chlorine analysis.
Features
Simple, one-touch calibration. Automatic sensor self-diagnostics (zero point, slope, response) during calibration.
Output range can be set in the field in case when the span is 1 mg/l or more. Remote switching 2-range capability is available.
Line-segment function available for output signal.
Simple verification of applied voltage/current characteristics (Plateau characteristic) between electrodes. Allows detailed knowledge of sensor characteristics for the target application to be obtained.
Improvements to rotating electrodes and glass bead cleaning have been added for even more effective automatic continuous cleaning.
Waterjet cleaning can be applied for the purpose of particularly dirty applications.
Easily maintained (easy-to-clean) cell construction.
Available for special version (for free chlorine measurement) designed to cope with very high concentrations of combined chlorine.
