Measure copper in industrial water
TYTRONICS’ SENTINEL enables you to:
Ensure that streams, rivers and coastal
waters are not contaminated by excess copper
ions;
Prove that a plant, or plant site, is causing
pollution of local waters by high copper
content;
Meet Regulatory Requirements & Avoid
Expensive Penalties.
The measurement of copper, as cuprous ions, is
most important in controlling the contamination
of drinking water sources as well as municipal
wastewater by industries using copper.
Industries using copper include: chemical,
electroplating, copper smelting and metal
refiners.
The total copper content is measured by the insitu
reduction of cupric ions [Cu(II)] to cuprous
ions [Cu(I)] and reaction with Bathocuproine, an
accepted method for the examination of water
and wastewater (Method # 3500-Cu E.
Bathocuproine Method, Standard Methods for
the Examination of Water and Wastewater, 15th
Ed.).
Enhanced Features of Tytronics'® Sentinel:
Programmable from 1 to 10 methods for a
single analysis compound
Up to 3 different calibration methods
Eight relay outputs, multi-programmable on
each relay
Alarm functions, including sample flow,
reagent level detection
From 1 to 6 stream configurations
METHOD
The Tytronics’ Sentinel duplicates the
laboratory method and relies on a dual
wavelength technique by which the selected
reference wavelength compensates for any minor
turbidity in sample solution. Reagent 1 is a
buffer consisting of hydroxylamine hydrochloride,
sodium citrate, HCl. Reagent 2 consists of 1
gram of bathocuproine dissolved in 1 liter
distilled water.
Features:
Provides continuous on-line analysis of water
or wastewater stream
Ensures maximum reliability
Ease of maintenance, rugged design
Self-checking for easy diagnostics
Minimizes sampling requirements
Multiple communication ports, including bidirectional
RS 232
