INSTALLATION PERSONNEL
Installation of the PCA310 - PCA340 Chlorine, pH, ORP and temperature analyzers should be
undertaken by persons with technical knowledge of the dangers associated with chemical exposure
and electrical shock.
Hanna Instruments assumes that persons performing the installation tasks are aware of the appropriate
safety procedures.
CAUTION: Review the Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) before handling the supplied chemical
reagents.
LOCATION OF THE INSTRUMENT
Analyzer Location
Locate the analyzer as close as is reasonably possible to the point where the sample is withdrawn
from the product stream (referred to as the sampling point).
The instrument should be mounted indoors, out of direct sunlight. Instrument operating temperature
is 5 to 40 °C (41 to 104 °F).
Sampling Point Location
Locate the sampling point to obtain a truly representative sample from the product stream. For example,
be sure the sampling point is well downstream from a Chlorine and acid/alkali feed. This assures that
adequate mixing and reaction of the Chlorine and acid/alkali before a sample is extracted.
HYDRAULIC CONNECTIONS
Note: Hydraulic connections should be installed only by qualified personnel to assure conformity
to applicable plumbing codes.
Sample Line Installation
Direct routing of sample lines is recommended.
If the large process pipes are horizontal, taps should be inserted vertically in the middle of the pipe to
avoid pulling sediment from the bottom or air bubbles from the top of the pipe into the sam ple line.
