Basic safety instructions OUSAF11
2 Basic safety instructions
2.1 Requirements for the personnel
• Installation, commissioning, operation and maintenance of the measuring system may be
carried out only by specially trained technical personnel.
• The technical personnel must be authorized by the plant operator to carry out the specified
activities.
• The electrical connection may be performed only by an electrical technician.
• The technical personnel must have read and understood these Operating Instructions and
must follow the instructions contained therein.
• Measuring point faults may be repaired only by authorized and specially trained personnel.
Repairs not described in the Operating Instructions provided may only be carried out
directly by the manufacturer or by the service organization.
2.2 Designated use
The OUSAF11 sensor measures the VIS/NIR absorption of liquids. The sensor is suitable for
use in a wide range of applications , such as:
• Interphase detection
• Applications in the food and beverage industry
– Milk detection in CIP solutions
– Phase separation, e.g. milk/water
– Product loss detection in outlet
• Measurement of solids in:
– Primaries industry
– Mining
Use of the device for any purpose other than that described, poses a threat to the safety of
people and of the entire measuring system and is therefore not permitted.
The manufacturer is not liable for damage caused by improper or non-designated use.
2.3 Occupational safety
As the user, you are responsible for complying with the following safety conditions:
• Installation guidelines
• Local standards and regulations
Electromagnetic compatibility
• The product has been tested for electromagnetic compatibility in accordance with the
applicable European standards for industrial applications.
• The electromagnetic compatibility indicated applies only to a product that has been
connected in accordance with these Operating Instructions.
2.4 Operational safety
1. Before commissioning the entire measuring point, verify that all connections are
correct. Ensure that electrical cables and hose connections are undamaged.

2. Do not operate damaged products, and safeguard them to ensure that they are not
operated inadvertently. Label the damaged product as defective.
3. If faults cannot be rectified:
Take the products out of operation and safeguard them to ensure that they are not
operated inadvertently.
2.5 Product safety
The product is designed to meet state-of-the-art safety requirements, has been tested, and
left the factory in a condition in which it is safe to operate. The relevant regulations and
European standards have been observed.

3.2 Measuring principle
Light absorption
The measuring principle is based on the Lambert-Beer law.
There is a linear dependency between the absorption of light and the concentration of the
absorbing substance:
A = -log(T) = ε . c . OPL
T = I/I
0
T ... Transmission
I ... Intensity of received light at detector
I0 ... Intensity of transmitted light of light source
A ... Absorption
ε ... Extinction coefficient
c ... Concentration
OPL ... Optical path length
A light source emits radiation through the medium and the incident radiation is measured on
the detector side.
The intensity of the light is determined by a photodiode and converted to a photocurrent.
The subsequent conversion to absorbance units (AU, OD) is performed in the associated
transmitter.
