Design
Safety function
With the Cleanfit CPA875 retractable assembly, you can carry out pH, ORP, oxygen and other
measurements reliably using suitable sensors. You can remove, clean, sterilize or calibrate/adjust the
sensors without interrupting the process.
The assembly can be installed in both vessels and pipes.
The retractable assembly has a modular design and can therefore be flexibly adapted to a wide array
of applications. It is available with both a manual and a pneumatic drive.
A choice of two chamber systems is available for the assembly:
• Single-chamber system with a service chamber or
• double-chamber system with an "inner" service chamber and a "front" service chamber
It is possible to choose between the following strokes for the electrode guide:
• 36 mm for flow housing, for example, and
• 78 mm for installation in vessels, for example
This minimizes boundary effects both in the event of flow and in the event of measured values in
If the sensor is not installed, it is not possible to pneumatically or manually move the assembly from
the service position to the measuring position.
Manual or pneumatic drive
The sensor can be driven both manually and pneumatically. The manual drive has a self-retaining
thread to hold the sensor in any intermediate position. The manual drive can be used for process
pressures up to 8 bar (116 psi). The pneumatic drive can be used for process pressures up to
16 bar (232 psi).
Limit position locking if compressed air fails
If the compressed air fails in pneumatic assemblies, the assembly remains in the position previously
selected. The process pressure cannot force it out of the measuring position and into an intermediate
position.
Limit position locking with manual drive
For position locking, the manual version has an unlocking button in both the measuring position and
the service position.
Impossible to remove sensor in the measuring position
The protection cap for covering the sensor has the following functions:
– Mechanical sensor safety
– Prevents sensor removal in the assembly measuring position
The bottom part of the protection cap is partly inserted into the drive and cannot be opened as a
result.
Non-rotating sensor guide
During insertion/retraction, the position of the ridges of the immersion tube in the area of the
sensor head retains the pre-setting once selected. This guarantees optimum and clear positioning of
the sensor in the process and during cleaning.
Limit position detection (can be retrofitted)
In the case of assemblies with a pneumatic drive, the service and measuring position of the sensor
are detected inductively and reported to connected systems (only for the measuring position in the
case of the manual drive assembly).
Cleaning
Medium drains completely out of "inner" service chamber and the "front" service chamber"
If the assembly is mounted in an angle of up to 15° to the horizontal, the cleaning medium can drain
off completely, without leaving any residue.
Special process seal without openings
Special, patented aseptic seals are used to avoid any openings that cannot be cleaned. These meet
the same hygienic requirements as pipe connections used in corresponding applications (not for NA
process connection).

Certified materials
All sealing materials that are in contact with the medium are FDA-certified and meet USP Class VI
specifications.
Electropolished materials 1.4435 (AISI 316 L)
All metal parts that are in contact with the medium have a surface roughness of Ra <0.76 µm or
optionally Ra <0.38 µm.
The Cleanfit CPA875 assembly has been developed to meet cleanability and sterility demands.
Both versions feature different sealing principles to meet these requirements.
• Double-chamber system with sensor cleaning in the "front" service chamber and single-chamber
system for certified cleanability
• Double-chamber system with sensor cleaning in the "inner" service chamber for certified
cleanability and sterility
Certified cleanability
Certified sterility
EHEDG-certified sterilisability
The assembly, including the service chamber and process connection, can be sterilized according to
EHEDG specifications.
EHEDG-certified cleanability of service chamber and process seal
In connection with process seal cleaning in a defined third rest position, the assembly, along with the
service chamber and process adapter, have been designed according to the EHEDG guidelines for
cleanability and sterilizability and certified by the EHEDG. This certifies that residual medium is not
only destroyed but is also removed completely from the service chamber and the sealing surface
without leaving any residue. Therefore the service chamber and sealing surface are free from product
residue and microorganisms.
Safety in sterile processes with the CPA875 double-chamber system
Contamination-free assembly insertion/retraction thanks to dynamic sealing based on the
"syringe principle"
The moving seals in the "inner" service chamber of the double-chamber assembly prevent already
sterilized parts from being contaminated by still non-sterilized parts of the sensor guide. This rules
out the possibility of contamination of the service chamber, and ultimately the process, even with
strict sterility requirements.
Double-chamber system for safe separation between the process and service chamber
On-the-fly cleaning, recalibration and testing of the sensor in a process with sensitive medium
requires the reliable and safe separation of the service chamber from the process. For this purpose
the "front" chamber of the double chamber assembly can be exposed to sealing medium, for instance.
At the same time, this chamber isolates the temperature from the process. The sensor can therefore
be removed, calibrated/adjusted or simply cleaned and tested without affecting the process.

2Outlet of "inner" service chamber
In the "Cleaning" state (A), the inlet and outlet of the "inner" service chamber are assigned as follows:
• Depending on the cleaning method, cleaning agent and purge gas are supplied via the inlet (1).
• These media are removed via the outlet (2).
In the "Move from service position to measuring position" state (B), the pressure conditions in the
"inner" service chamber must be balanced when moving. The inlet and outlet of the "inner" service
chamber are assigned as follows:
• The air is removed via the inlet (1) (inlet is open).
• The air is supplied via the outlet (2).
In the "Move from measuring position to service position" state (C), the pressure conditions in the
"inner" service chamber must be balanced when moving. The inlet and outlet of the "inner" service
chamber are assigned as follows:
• The air is supplied via the inlet (1).
• The air is removed via the outlet (2) (outlet is open).
The drive must be controlled simultaneously with the control of the inlets and outlets of the
"inner" service chamber.
The controller for the inlets, outlets and the drive is installed at the place of installation. It is
not included in the scope of delivery of the assembly.
The "front" service chamber can be cleaned as standard. Pressure compensation is not necessary here.

Orientation
Pneumatic connections for
automatic operation
The assembly is designed for installation on tanks and pipes. Suitable process connections must be
available for this.
NOTICE
Frost damage to the assembly
If used outdoors, ensure that water cannot penetrate the drive.
‣
For 3-A-compliant installation, please observe the following:
After the device has been mounted, hygienic integrity must be guaranteed. To do so, the
leakage hole must be located at the lowest point on the device. In addition, 3-A-compliant
process connections must be used.
The assembly is designed in such a way that there are no restrictions with regard to the orientation.
The sensor that is used can restrict the orientation.
The "inner" service chamber and "front" service chamber can drain on their own with an
installation position of between 0° and 15° to the horizontal.

Connection: Push-in fitting M5, hose 4/2 mm OD/ID (adapter for 6/4 mm OD/ID enclosed)
Damage to seals due to excessive air pressure!
If the air pressure can increase to more than 7 bar (102 psi) (even short pressure surges), a pressurereducing valve must be installed upstream.
Rinse connection
Ambient temperature range
Storage temperature
The service chamber connections of the sterile CPA875 retractable assembly make it possible to
clean the chamber and the sensor with water or a cleaning solution at a pressure of
6 bar (87 psi) max. or to sterilize it with steam (SIP).
The retractable assembly can be selected with a single- or double-chamber system. If the doublechamber system is used, all four connections must be connected to inlet and outlet pipes.
Seals can be damaged if the water pressure is too high.
Install an pressure-reducing valve upstream if there is a possibility that the water pressure will
increase to more than 6 bar (87 psi) (including any short pressure surges).
