MODEL 54e pH/ORP SECTION 1.0
DESCRIPTION AND SPECIFICATIONS
The Model 54e when configured as a pH analyzer,
requires a dual (glass and reference) impedance pre-
amplifier (patent pending).This preamp converts the
high impedance pH glass electrode signal to a low
impedance signal.The preamplifier may be located in
one of three areas: 1) in the pH sensor for best per-
formance, 2) in a remote junction box when process
temperatures exceed 80°C (176°F) in submersion
applications, or 3) in the analyzer when the distance
between the pH sensor and the analyzer is 4.5 meters
(15 feet) or less.
The Model 54e pH measures over the full range of 0-
14 pH.The current output may be calibrated to repre-
sent any 1 to 14 pH span.
A two-point calibration is made by immersing the sen-
sor in two different buffer solutions and entering the
pH values. When two buffers are used, the micro-
processor automatically calculates the electrode slope
which is used for self-diagnostics.The electrode slope
can be read on the display and manually adjusted. A
one-point process standardization is easily accom-
plished by entering the pH value of a grab sample.

The Model 54e when configured as an ORP analyz-
er, measures over a range of -1400 mV to +1400 mV
in either the American convention (Oxidation
Reduction Potential), or the European convention
(Reduction Oxidation-Redox). Although temperature
compensation is not used for ORP measurements, the
process temperature is measured and displayed.
Temperature measurement is made by an RTD locat-
ed in the sensor assembly.
