Electronics are available in various configurations for maximum
installation flexibility. The universal-mount version is for pipe,
wall, or tank mounting and uses the CDCE-90 Series conductivity/
resistivity sensor (sold separately). It is also available as a
combined integral system configuration for in-line mounting and
includes a conductivity electrode in a choice of 0.01, 0.1, 1.0, 10.0
or 20.0 cm–1 cell constants. The CDTX-2850 is ideal for
applications with a conductivity range of 0.055 to 400,000 µS or
a resistivity range of 18.2 MΩ to 10 kΩ. All CDTX-2850 units are
built with NEMA 4X (IP65) enclosures which allow output wiring
connections with long cable runs of up to 305 m (1000 feet). The
two-wire 4 to 20 mA output has eight 4 to 20 mA output ranges for
each electrode cell constant. Each range can be inverted and is
field selectable. Standard calibration automatically recognizes
conductivity test solution values for simple field calibration.
A certification tool is available for validation of the sensor
electronics according to USP requirements.
