Endura 4-Electrode Conductivity Sensorsfor Process Monitoring

ABB is the industry leader in advancements resulting inthe increased accuracy, dependability, and environ-mental limits of on-stream conductivity sensors. Theconductivity sensor line permits resolutions of 0.001microsiemens per centimeter, full-scale ranges of onesiemen per centimeter, pressure ratings to 2,068kilopascals (300 psig), and temperature ratings of200-degrees Celsius (392-degrees Fahrenheit). GroupA sensors have a measurement range spanning fivedecades of conductivity or TDS concentration.

The ABB 4-electrode conductivity system is a patentedconcept unique in the process industry. It providesultimate sampling flexibility, sensor reliability,rangeability, and helpful operating and maintenanceinformation. Smart circuitry detects and compenstatesfor the buildup of deposits, and scale and corrosionproducts on the sensor. It also provides an alarm beforethe interference becomes so serious as to affect theconductivity signal. The dirty sensor alarm output is acontact closure, a digital signal, or any other easilyobserved format.

Anti-Fouling 4-Electrode Circuit

Figure 1 shows the 4-electrode conductivity systemwhich consists of two current electrodes and twopotential electrodes, a high impedance amplifier provid-ing feedback to an amplitude-controlled ocillator, aconductivity sensing circuit with associated load resistorand display, and a dirty sensor alarm circuit.

Feedback from the high impedance amplifier causes theoscillator to vary its amplitude output to maintain aconstant excitation field, created by the current elec-trodes in the solution, as sensed by the potential elec-trodes. The current required to create the excitationfield passes through the load resistor and is sensed as avoltage drop by the conductivity sensing circuit. Theamount of excitation current required to maintain aconstant excitation field in a solution is directly propor-tional to conductivity. If fouling of the electrodes occurs,the AC potential at the electrodes increases to drive theexcitation through the deposits to maintain the constantexcitation field. The increase in potential at the currentelectrodes compensates for the increase in interfaceresistance at them. The high impedance amplifierdraws no current; therefore, the voltage drop acrossdeposits on the potential electrodes is negligible andcontributes no signficant error.

The dirty sensor alarm circuit measures the oscillatoramplitude. The amplitude stays below a predefinedthreshold during normal operation. If the amplitudeexceeds that threshold, the conductivity measuringinstrument notifies, via an alarm, readout, or othermethod, that the sensor needs cleaning.

Sensor Groups and Ranges

There are two groups of 4-electrode conductivitysensors. The rangeability of any sensor is defined bythe physical structure of the electrodes and the elec-tronic circuitry of the associated instrument. Thephysical structure of the electrodes determines thesensor cell constant; however, the concept of sensorcell constants is more applicable to two-electrodesensors. Unlike 4-electrode sensors, as manufacturedby ABB, the rangeability of two-electrode sensors isrestricted by current density and polarization. 4-electrode sensors are not limited by these factors. Theresult is a virtual dimensionless sensor constant withwide rangeability.

The actual measurement range is determined by thesensor group and the instrument range or range factorin use. All ABB conductivity instruments are multirangetypes. This provides numerous application options forany sensor and instrument combination.

ABB 4-electrode conductivity sensors are arranged intwo groups, loosely adhering to the sensor cell constantstructure in the following manner:

• Group A: General purpose for zero to 100 to zeroto 2,000,000 μS/cm.

• Group B: Low to medium range for zero to 10.00 tozero to 2,000 μS/cm.

Table 1 provides a list of sensor and ranges.

Temperature Compensation

ABB conductivity sensors are available with temperaturecompensators either integral to or separate from them.The type of temperature compensator must be supportedby the instrument. AX4 series microprocessor-basedinstruments accept 3kΩ, Pt 100 and Pt 1000 tempera-ture compensation. Type TB82EC and TB84EC micro-processor-based instruments have the option of using a3kΩ or Pt 100 RTD.

Figure 2 shows the temperature compensators. Theeffect of temperature on conductivity is significant;therefore, for measurements to be accurate, conductiv-ity must be compensated to a reference temperature(typically 25°C).

Flow Cells

The flow cell (Fig. 3) is available for both conductivity andpH sensors. It is designed for use with the EnduraTB264 Two-Electrode Conductivity Sensors, EnduraTB464 4-Electrode Conductivity Sensors, and EnduraTB(X)561 pH/ORP Sensors. Multiple inlet and outletports provide flexibility with installation, calibration, andmounting configurations. The sensor can be insertedand removed from the flow cell quickly and easilywithout disconnecting the sensor from the instrument orjunction box.

Designed for servicein systems exceeding pressure ranges of standardhot tap sensors, these high pressure hot tap sensorsalso insure worker safety. Closing a ball valve isolatesan extraction housing, separating the operator fromthe sensor and process. The housing can be pres-surized or depressurized and purged by installingflush and/or drain lines to the 1/4-NPT purge con-nections. Ruggedly constructed of 316 stainlesssteel, these sensors withstand the most demandingprocesses and measurement requirements.
