DANGER
HAZARDOUS AREA INSTALLATION
Installations near flammable liquids or in hazardous area locations must be carefully evaluated by qualified on site safety personnel. This
sensor is not Intrinsically Safe or Explosion
Proof.
To secure and maintain an intrinsically safe
installation, the certified safety barrier, transmitter, and sensor combination must be
used. The installation system must comply
with the governing approval agency (FM,
CSA or BASEEFA/CENELEC) hazardous
area classification requirements. Consult your
analyzer/transmitter instruction manual for
details.
Proper installation, operation and servicing of
this sensor in a Hazardous Area Installation is
entirely the responsibility of the user.

1.1 FEATURES AND APPLICATIONS
The Rosemount Analytical Model 399VP Sensor measures the pH or the Oxidation Reduction Potential
(ORP) of aqueous solutions in pipelines, open tanks,
or ponds. It is suitable for virtually all applications
where a low cost sensor is required. The combination
electrode features a ceramic junction constructed in
an annular design around the pH/ORP sensitive
membrane. The double or triple junction reference
cell configuration is resistant to process solutions
containing ammonia, chlorine, cyanides, sulfides, or
other poisoning ions.
The glass electrode is housed in a molded Tefzel
body and sealed with Viton1O-rings to guard against
process leakage. The cable end of the sensor is also
sealed, eliminating cable shorts caused by exposure
to moisture. This construction makes for a highly
chemical resistant disposable sensor and does not
require electrolyte replenishment.
The custom glass electrode is available with either a
standard hemi bulb or an optional flat bulb to best
meet your application needs. Flat glass is advantageous in abrasive or coating applications that etch or
build up on the glass respectively. In coating applications, such as slurries, the flat surface allows the
process flow to act as a scrubbing agent to reduce
coating and maintenance whereas in abrasive applications pitting from silicates and other similar materials is minimized by the flat surface to provide longer
life. The hemi bulb is ideal for general purpose use
and for those processes requiring greater accuracy
over the entire pH range
Installation is easily achieved through the wide variety
of mounting configurations. The Model 399VP features 1 in. (MNPT) front and rear facing connections
for insertion, submersion or flow through pH and ORP
applications.

DESCRIPTION AND SPECIFICATIONS
1.3 ORDERING INFORMATION
The Model 399VP pH/ORP Sensor is available with custom glass electrodes housed in a molded Tefzel body with
1 in. MNPT threads suitable for insertion, submersion or flow through installation. The sensor includes a general
purpose hemi bulb pH electrode (flat bulb optional) or a platinum ORP electrode and a double or triple junction gel
filled reference electrode. Automatic temperature compensation is standard with the Model 399VP pH, but is not
required on the Model 399VP ORP (except when used with the Model 1054A ORP Microprocessor Analyzer). The
399VP is offered with the Variopol (VP) connector and uses a mating VP cable (purchased separately). A remote
preamplifier must be used with this sensor.

2.5 SUBMERSION INSTALLATIONS
2.1 UNPACKING AND INSPECTION.
Inspect the carton for any damage. If damage is
detected, contact the carrier immediately. Inspect the
hardware. Make sure all the items on the packing list
are present and in good condition. Notify the factory
if any part is missing. If the sensor is in satisfactory
condition, proceed to Section 2.2, Mounting.
NOTE
Save the packing cartons and materials as
most carriers require proof of damage due to
mishandling, etc. Also, if it is necessary to
return the sensor to the factory, you must pack
the sensor in the same manner as it was
received. Refer to Section 7.0 for instructions.
If storing the sensor, the vinyl boot should be
filled with pH buffer solution (pH 4 buffer recommended) and replaced on sensor tip until
ready to use.
CAUTION
Buffer solution in the vinyl boot may cause
skin or eye irritation.
NOTE
Glass electrode must be wetted at all times (in
storage and in line) to maximize sensor life.
2.2 MOUNTING.
The sensor has been designed to be located in
industrial process environments. Temperature and
pressure limitations must not be exceeded at any
time. A pertinent caution label is attached to the sensor. Please do not remove the label. See Figure 2-1.
CAUTION
Internal electrolyte fill solution may cause skin
or eye irritation.
Mounting Guidelines:
1. Shake down the sensor to remove any air bubbles that may be present inside the tip of the pH
glass.
2. Do not install the sensor horizontally. The sensor
must be at a minimum of 10° off the horizontal
(sensor glass bulb pointing down) to ensure
accuracy.
3. Do not install the sensor upside down.
4. Air bubbles may become trapped on the sensor
glass bulb. This problem is most commonly
encountered in areas of low flow or during calibration. Shake the probe while immersed in solution to remove bubbles.
In most cases, the pH sensor can simply be installed
as shipped, and readings with an accuracy of ± 0.6
pH may be obtained. To obtain greater accuracy or
to verify proper operation, the sensor must be calibrated together with its compatible analyzer or transmitter.

2.4 INSERTION INSTALLATIONS.
The Model 399VP sensor has forward and rear facing 1 in. MNPT process connections for pipeline installations
(see Figure 2-4 or 2-5) and flange connections. The Model 399VP is also suitable for side-of-tank installation. The
Model 399VP must be mounted at least 10° above the horizontal (see Figure 2-4).
NOTE
Large pipe wrenches must not be used to tighten the sensor into a flange or other type of mounting.
