Please read this entire manual before unpacking, setting up, or operating this equipment. Pay attention to all danger and caution statements. Failure to do so could result in serious injury to the operator or damage to the equipment.
To ensure that the protection provided by this equipment is not impaired, do not use or install this equipment in any manner other than that specified in this manual.
2.1.1 Use of Hazard Information
DANGER Indicates a potentially or imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.
CAUTION Indicates a potentially hazardous situation that may result in minor or moderate injury.
Important Note: Information the requires special emphasis.
Note: Information that supplements points in the main text.
2.1.2 Precautionary Labels
Read all labels and tags attached to the instrument. Personal injury or damage to the instrument could occur if not observed.
2.1.3 General Product Information
The 1720E Turbidimeter is a continuous-reading nephelometric turbidimeter designed for low-range turbidity monitoring. This process turbidimeter is capable of measuring turbidity from 0.001 to 100.0 NTU. Calibration is based on formazin, the primary turbidity reference standard adopted by the APHA Standard Methods for the Examination of Water and Wastewater and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and on StablCal
®
which
is also recognized as a primary standard.
The 1720E Turbidimeter can be operated using an sc controller. Refer to the Operation section (Section 5 on page 15) for more information.
This symbol, if noted on the instrument, references the instruction manual for operation and/or safety information.
This symbol, when noted on a product enclosure or barrier, indicates that a risk of electrical shock and/or electrocution exists.
This symbol, if noted on the product, indicates the need for protective eye wear.
This symbol, when noted on the product, identifies the location of the connection for Protective Earth (ground).

General Information
2.2 Theory of Operation
The 1720E Turbidimeter measures turbidity by directing a strong beam of collimated light from the sensor head assembly down into the sample in the turbidimeter body. Light scattered at 90° relative to the center line of incident light by suspended particles in the sample is detected by the submerged photocell (Figure 1).
The amount of light scattered is proportional to the turbidity of the sample. If the turbidity of the sample is negligible, little light will be scattered and detected by the photocell and the turbidity reading will be low. High turbidity, on the other hand, will cause a high level of light scattering and result in a high reading.
Sample enters the turbidimeter body and flows through the baffle network of the bubble trap. The flow allows bubbles to either cling to surfaces of the baffle system or rise to the surface and vent to atmosphere. After traveling through the bubble trap, sample enters the center column of the turbidimeter body, rises into the measuring chamber and spills over the weir into the drain port. A reading is taken once per second.

Section 3 Installation
DANGER Only qualified personnel should conduct the tasks described in this section of the manual. The 1720E/sc100 product configuration is not intended for installation in hazardous locations.
3.1 Connecting/Wiring the Sensor to the sc100 Controller
3.1.1 Attaching a sc Sensor with a Quick-connect Fitting
The sensor cable is supplied with a keyed quick-connect fitting for easy attachment to the controller, see Figure 2. Retain the connector cap to seal the connector opening in case the sensor must be removed. The 1720E sensor cable may be extended by a maximum of
7.62 m (25 ft), see Replacement Parts and Accessories on page 31.

Installation
3.1.2 Hard-wiring a sc Sensor to the sc100 Controller
1. Disconnect power to the controller if powered.
2. Open the controller cover.
3. Disconnect and remove the existing wires between the quick-connect and terminal
strip J5, see Figure 3.
4. Remove the quick-connect fitting and wires and install the threaded plug on the opening to maintain the environmental rating.
5. Cut the connector from the sensor cable.
6. Strip the insulation on the cable back 1-inch. Strip ¼-inch of each individual wire end.
7. Pass the cable through conduit and a conduit hub or a strain relief fitting
(Cat. No. 16664) and an available access hole in the controller enclosure. Tighten the fitting.
Note: Use of strain relief fitting other than Cat. No. 16664 may result in a hazard. Use only the recommended strain relief fitting.
8. Reinstall the plug on the sensor access opening to maintain the environmental rating.

Installation
3.3.1 Mounting the Turbidimeter Body
Locate the turbidimeter as close to the sampling point as possible. A shorter distance for the sample to travel results in a faster response time.
Clean the turbidimeter body and bubble trap before installation using the instructions supplied in section 6.4.2 on page 24. Slotted mounting brackets are integral parts of the turbidimeter body. Install customer-supplied hardware appropriate for the installation environment using the criteria detailed below:
Install in a location that is isolated from vibration.
Allow at least 22 cm (approximately 10 inches) clearance for removal of the head
assembly and bubble trap cover from the top of the turbidimeter body.
Leave enough room below the turbidimeter body to remove the bottom plug and to
place a container under the drain when calibrating or cleaning.
Note: Make sure the top of the turbidimeter body is level.
Install two ¼-20 bolts 10-3/4 inches apart (on center). Leave at least ¼-inch of the bolt
head exposed.
Make sure the bolts are installed level. Slide the slotted mounting brackets of the turbidimeter body onto the bolts.
3.3.2 Installing the Head Assembly
After the turbidimeter body has been mounted, install the bubble trap cover, then place the head assembly on the turbidimeter body with the label facing the front. Move the head assembly back and forth slightly to ensure it is properly seated on the body of the instrument. Failure to properly seat the head will result in light leakage and erroneous readings.
The rear portion of the head assembly has a molded “lip” which may be used to hang the head assembly on the turbidimeter body edge for routine maintenance.
3.4 Installing a Sample Line
DANGER This turbidimeter is not designed for use in hazardous locations or with samples that are flammable or explosive in nature. If any sample solution other than water is used in this product, test the sample/product compatibility to ensure user safety and proper product performance.
One-fourth inch OD rigid or semi-rigid tubing is recommended for sample lines. Run them as directly as possible between the turbidimeter body and the sampling point to minimize sample flow lag time.
Install sample line taps into larger process pipes to minimize interference from air bubbles or pipeline bottom sediment. A tap projecting into the center of the pipe is ideal. Figure 5 shows examples of sample tap installations.
Note: When setting the flow rate, take care to avoid sweeping air “micro-bubbles” through the internal bubble trap. Observe the sample flow inside the turbidimeter body. If small air bubbles can be seen flowing up through the center, reduce the flow rate.
