PR-23 instrucon manual
To ensure EHEDG compliant installation, follow the mounting speciics provided on
the mounting drawing supplied by K-Patents with each PR-23-AP refractometer or-
dered with the -EH option.
9.4.8 3A Sanitary Standard compliance
The user should ensure that the refractometer is not a source of contamination to
product due to damaged or worn product contact surfaces. Misuse (e.g. too long prism
wash time or too high wash pressure) or mishandling may result in metal scratches
or roughened surfaces. Such surfaces may not stay clean in processing.
K-Patents offers a 3A Sanitary Standard Accepted repair and maintenance package in
which all wetted parts, prism, gaskets and dryer are replaced. Note that this repair
service can be completed by 3A authorized service center only (K-Patents factory or
regional headquarters).
9.5 Compact process refractometer PR-23-GC
The K-Patents Compact process refractometer PR-23-GC is designed for the general
industry small pipeline and bypass line applications e.g. in chemical, oil, gas, petro-
chemical and kraft pulping processes.
