GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Hanna PCA 311, PCA 321 and PCA 331 series of
bromine, pH, ORP and temperature analyzers are microprocessor controlled, process analyzers which continuously
monitor a sample stream for bromine content, pH, ORP
and temperature values.
The PCA 311-331 monitor the bromine in the 0.0 to 10.0 mg/L
range depending on the factory settings and used reagents.
In the DPD Colorimetric method, N, N-Diethyl-p-phenylenediamine indicator and a buffer are mixed with the sample.
The resulting chemical reaction causes a magenta color to
form. The color intensity is proportional to the concentration
of bromine. The color intensity is measured photometrically
(with a light beam and a photodetector) and converted to
bromine concentration, in mg/L, which is displayed on the
front panel.
Indicator and buffer reagent bottles are placed directly into
the instrument case. With a sampling period of 5 minutes,
reagents need to be replenished about once a month. The
reagent bottles are easily visible through the transparent
window allowing the operator to check the reagent levels.
PCA 321 and PCA 331 analyzers use a HI 1005 probe to
continuously measure the pH of the sample stream in the range
of 0 to 14 pH. The sample temperature is measured in the 5 to
75°C range. pH and temperature are displayed on the front
panel. pH value is corrected with temperature.
PCA 331 analyzer use HI 2008 platinum ORP electrode to
continuously measure the sample ORP value.
The pH/temperature combined sensor and the ORP sensor
are placed inside the case, directly in the sample stream.
The case of PCA 311-331 analyzers meet NEMA 4X, 12 and
7
13 standards. Molded fiberglass polyester has outstanding
chemical and temperature resistance.
The case provides wall mounting capability and door gasket
assures a watertight and dust-tight seal.
The electrical and hydraulic connections are made through
the side of the enclosure.
The front cover is secured with two lockable latches.
Four bromine level setpoints can be adjusted by the operator:
a proportional dosing setpoint, two alarm setpoints and a
minimum level for dosing.
The proportional dosing factor (1/delta) is user selectable with
a delta between 0.2 and 10.0 mg/L (ppm). Bromine dosing
system controls a SPST relay.
Each bromine alarm can be enabled or disabled.
Three pH level setpoints can be adjusted by the operator: a
dosing setpoint and two alarm setpoints. The pH control mode
is user selectable: on/off or proportional dosing.
The proportional dosing factor (1/delta) is user selectable with
a delta between 0.1 and 2 pH . The on/off dosing hysteresis is
user selectable between 0.05 and 2.00 pH. pH dosing system
controls a SPST relay.
Each pH alarm can be enabled or disabled.
For temperature and ORP, two alarm levels can be set by the
user.
Each temperature or ORP alarm can be enabled or disabled.
Alarm condition controls a SPDT relay.
A system error feature provides relay activation to signals need
for operator intervention.
System error condition controls a SPST relay.
Voltage output ranges of 0-10mV, 0-100mV, 0-1V or a
current output of 4-20 or 0-20 mA are available to drive an
external device such as a chart recorder.
The analyzer can drive a proportional dosing pump through
the 4-20 mA output, for bromine or for acid/alkali dosing.
The analog output is fully programmable and could be
proportional with bromine concentration, pH, ORP or
temperature value. The limits of the analog output is
selectable for each parameter.

The keypad has 8 keys with the following signification:
Referring to the drawing on page 10 and the Fluidic Diagram
on page 17, the Sample Line is connected to the instrument at
the Sample Port (#17); an internal Regulator (#15) reduces
the inlet pressure from a maximum of 4 bar (57.2 psi) down to
1 bar (14.3 psi); from the Regulator a nylon tube is connected
to the input of the Electrovalve (#21). The output of the valve
goes to the Drain Port (#11) and then to the Measuring Cell
(#7). An optional Filter can be installed to the sample port if
the stream is excessively turbid.
The sample coming from the line normally flows through the
Measuring Cell (#7). It goes out from the Measuring Cell
through the Drain Tube (#8) and the Output Port (#9).
The Measuring Cell is accessible from the port placed on the
top (#6) for speedy cleaning and maintenance.
During the 100 seconds preceding the sampling, the analyzer
solenoid input valve is open to allow sample flow to flush the
colorimeter cell. Every 3 to 90 minutes (user selectable), the
electrovalve closes stopping the sample flow and leaving the
sample cell full of fresh sample. Cell volume is controlled by
an overflow gateway.
As the sample inlet electrovalve closes, a series of measurements
(with LED on and off) of the unreacted sample is taken to determine
an average blank level prior to reagent addition.
The measurement of sample blank signal permits compensation
for any turbidity or natural color, and provides the zero reference
point for the measurement.
The two channel Peristaltic Pump (#5) starts rotating causing
a precise quantity of buffer and indicator (#13 and #16) to
enter the colorimeter sample cell. Here a magnetically coupled
stirrer mixes the reagents with the sample.
After a delay for the color development, a series of measurements
(with LED on and off) are taken (sample level) to determine an
average bromine concentration measurement. The reacted
sample signal is then measured and displayed.
This sequence is repeated every 3 to 90 minutes (user-selectable).
16
METHOD OF ANALYSIS
The available
bromine
oxidizes the
bromine
reagents at a
pH between
5.5 and 6.0 to
form a magentacolored compound. The
intensity of the
resulting color
is proportional to the
concentration
of bromine in
the sample.
pH AND TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENT
ORP MEASUREMENT
The HI 1005 pH/temperature probe provides at the out port
a potential proportional with the pH. The temperature is
measured with PT100 platinum sensor.
For increased accuracy the pH is corrected with temperature
and with the calibration coefficients. Up to 2 buffers can be
used for calibration.
The temperature can be displayed in °C or °F.
The probe can withstand pressure up to 6 bar (87 psi).
The HI 2008 probe provides at the out port a potential
proportional with the ORP value. The value is directly
displayed in mV.
The probe can withstand pressure up to 6 bar (87 psi).

INITIAL PREPARATION AND INSTALLATION
INSTALLATION PERSONNEL
Installation of the PCA 311-331 Bromine, pH, ORP and
temperature analyzers should be undertaken by persons with
technical knowledge of the dangers associated with chemical
exposure and electrical shock.
Hanna Instruments assumes that persons performing the installation
tasks are aware of the appropriate safety procedures.
CAUTION: Review the Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) before
handling the supplied chemical reagents.
LOCATION OF THE INSTRUMENT
Analyzer Location
Locate the analyzer as close as is reasonably possible to the
point where the sample is withdrawn from the product stream
(referred to as the sampling point).
The instrument should be mounted indoors, out of direct sunlight. Instrument operating temperature is 5 to 40°C (41 to
104°F).
Sampling Point Location
Locate the sampling point to obtain a truly representative sample
from the product stream. For example, be sure the sampling
point is well downstream from a Bromine and acid / alkali
feed. This assures that adequate mixing and reaction of the
Bromine and acid / alkali before a sample is extracted.
HYDRAULIC CONNECTIONS
Note:Hydraulic connections should be installed only by qualified
personnel to assure conformity to applicable plumbing codes.
Sample Line Installation
Direct routing of sample lines is recommended.
If the large process pipes are horizontal, taps should be
inserted vertically in the middle of the pipe to avoid pulling
sediment from the bottom or air bubbles from the top of the
pipe into the sample line.
A 1/2 BSP sample input fitting allows direct connection to the
optional input filter.
18
Sample line pressure should be between 0.07 and 4 bar
(1 and 57.2 psi) with an ideal pressure of 0.7 bar (10 psi).
Drain Line Installation
The drain hose fitting is a 20 mm (3/4”) hose barb on the
bottom of the instrument enclosure. An air gap between the
end of the drain hose and the drain is recommended to
prevent any back flow into the instrument in the event of drain
blockage.
Return Line Installation
The return hose fitting is a 12 mm (1/2”) hose barb on the
bottom of the regulator output port and should always be
connected even when pressure is below 1 bar.

Analyzer
In order to ensure maximum accuracy of measurements, it is
recommended to have always clear sample, with suspended
particles smaller than 0.5 μm. This can be achieved by installing two filters before the sample input.
The type of filters depends on the quality
of the water: the first
filter should have 50100 μm pore size,
whereas in any case
the second filter, the
one closer to the analyzer, has to be 0.5 μm.
For correct installing procedure and maintenance, see the
instructions of filters.
INSTALLING THE pH AND ORP PROBES
To mount the pH and ORP probes, first turn off the analyzer.
Unscrew the closing caps from the electrode holder and remove
the protective cap from electrodes and electrodes connectors.
