High performance for your process pH/ORP needs
Rosemount 3900/3900VP October 2019

Overview

A robust sensor design
Extended sensor life and protection against poisoning ions using a double junction reference.
Enhanced performance and increased life with cracking resistant glass.
Maximum chemical resistance provided by a rugged polyphenylene sulfide body.
Operates in sub-zero temperatures down to 14 °F (-10 °C).
Built-ins solution ground for advanced diagnostics.
Versatile installation options
The sensor body features a one-piece construction with both front facing and rear facing process threads.
¾-in. and 1-in. MNPT process connections to meet a variety of application installation requirements.
Variopol (VP8) cable connection option, for quick cable-to-sensor release, eliminates cable twisting.
SMART preamplifier
Automatic recognition of pH sensors by Rosemount transmitters: 1066, 1057, 1056, and 56.
pH calibration data is stored, which allows sensors to be calibrated in advance for "plug and play" installations in the field.

Ordering information

The Rosemount 3900 and 3900VP General Purpose pH/ORP sensors feature a chemically resistant Ryton® plastic body, along with a built-in solution ground for advanced diagnostics and a Pt-100 resistance temperature device (RTD) for temperature compensation. These sensors are available with either an integral cable connection (Rosemount 3900) or Variopol (VP8) connector (Rosemount 3900VP). Variopol cables are sold separately (see Accessories).

Note
The Rosemount 3900 pH/ORP sensor is housed in a Ryton plastic body with built-in solution ground for advanced diagnostics. Pt-100 is offered for a temperature compensator. The sensor is available with an integral cable. You can mount the sensor using a process connector, both ordered separately. You can also order junction box kits with preamplifiers separately if the transmitter does not have an integral preamplifier with 15 ft. (5 m) of the sensor.

The jet spray cleaner eliminates routine, manual sensor maintenance by cleaning the sensor with water or compressed air. You can control flow through the cleaner with a solenoid valve.
Note
You can use the jet spray cleaner with the handrail mounting assembly (PN 11275-01, not shown), or you can mount it through the conduit as shown in Figure 8.

Temperature 32 to 122 °F (0 to 50 °C)
The minimum inlet pressure is required to open a check valve, which prevents the flow cell from draining if sample flow is lost. Removing the

check valve lowers the inlet pressure requirement to a few feet of water head.
