Phosphate Analyzer 8242

THIS PRODUCT IS DISCONTINUED and has
been replaced with our Phosphate Analyzer
9042.

The 8242 Phosphate monitor has been designed with the greatest simplicity in mind. Developed as continuous monitor offering wide dynamic ranging, the 8242 features a carefully designed liquid handling section, which reduces maintenance to an absolute minimum. Cost effective ownership is insured through the utilization of microprocessor-based electronics that offer automatic calibration, continuous sample monitoring and programmable multi-stream switching.

The monitor should be installed where the following conditions can be maintained.

Sample flow:
5 to 750ml/min.

Suspended solids:
< 10 ppm, <60 microns.

Ambient temperature:
Normally within the range 5 to 40°C.

Sample temperature:
Within the range 5 to 55°C.

Reagent solutions:
Consumption of each reagent is 10 liters (2 1 /2 Gallons) per month.

Calibration solutions:
A solution of one liter is required of concentration and formulation suitable for the particular range and application.

Range:
Silica: Within the range 0 to 2000ppb.
Phosphate: As P within the range 0 - 20ppm.
As P043 within the range 0-60ppm.

Repeatability:
Silica: Accuracy ±2% of reading or ±2ppb,
whichever is greater.
Phosphate: Accuracy ±2% of reading.

Reproducibility:
Silica: ±2% of reading or ±2ppb, whichever is greater.
Phosphate: ±2% of reading.

Response time:
Less than 7 minutes for initial step change.

Chemical drift:
Dependent on reagents - typically less than ±5% of
reading/month.

Control temperature range:
