1.1 FEATURES AND APPLICATIONS
The Solu Comp II analyzers offer the choice of sin­gle or dual sensor input with measurement choices of pH/ORP, resistivity/conductivity/TDS, % concen­tration, ratio conductivity, total and free chlorine, dis­solved oxygen, dissolved ozone, flow and tempera­ture. Dual measurement analyzers offer a wide choice of measurement combinations thus reducing the cost per loop and needed panel space.
FIELD COMMISSION OPTION: The Solu Comp II can be ordered with the ability to commission meas­urements in the field. This added flexibility can greatly reduce the number of spare instruments required for field servicing.
QUICK START PROGRAMMING: Exclusive Quick Start screens appear the first time the Solu Comp II is powered up. Screen prompts direct the user to register the number of sensors, the measurement unit(s) and the language to display. Some measure­ment specific prompts are also displayed. The measurement loop is ready for use in a matter of minutes.
MENUS: Menu screens for calibrating and register­ing choices are simple and intuitive. Plain language prompts guide the user through the procedures. There are no service codes to enter before gaining access to menus.
DUAL SENSOR INPUT AND OUTPUT: The Solu Comp II accepts single or dual sensor input. The two 4-20 mA outputs can be independently pro­grammed to correspond to any selected measure­ment or temperature. Output damping and linear or log output may also be field selected.
ALARMS: The Solu Comp II has three fully pro­grammable alarm relays that can be assigned to any selected measurement or temperature. Alarms can be configured as high, low, or USP1. The third relay has the additional choice of fault alarm opera­tion. When selected, a fault alarm will activate the relay when a sensor or analyzer fault occurs.
ENCLOSURE: The panel mount version fits stan­dard ½ DIN panel cutouts, and its shallow depth is ideally suited for easy mounting in Hoffman-type enclosures. A panel mount gasket is included to maintain the weather rating of the panel. Surface/pipe mount enclosure includes self-tapping screws for surface mounting. A pipe mounting accessory kit is available for mounting to a 2-inch pipe.
DISPLAY: The two-line, 16-character, back-lit dis­play can be customized to meet user requirements. All operations and descriptive messages can be field selected for English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, or Portuguese. Informative screens, which permit data not shown in the regular display, may be seen at the push of a button.
TEMPERATURE: Most measurements (except ORP and flow) require temperature compensation. The Solu Comp II will automatically recognize either a Pt100 or Pt1000 RTD, normally built into the sen­sor. When this RTD is present, the Solu Comp II can be set up to display the temperature in °C or °F as well as set any one or more of the alarms and/or outputs to respond to this sensor input. If two meas­urements with temperature are present either can be chosen for each alarm and output selected.

When used with Model Series 200 Toroidal Conductivity Sensors, display choices are conductiv­ity, resistivity, and percent concentration. The per­cent concentration selection includes the choice of four common solutions (0-12% NaOH, 0-15% HCl, and 0-25% or 96-99.7% H2SO4). The conductivity­concentration algorithms for these solutions are fully temperature compensated. For other solutions, a simple-to-use menu allows the customer to enter his own data. The analyzer accepts as many as five (5) data points and fits either a linear (two [2] points) or a quadratic function (three [3] or more points) to the data. Reference temperature and linear temperature slope may also be adjusted for optimum results.

MODEL SOLU COMP II SECTION 1.0
DESCRIPTION AND SPECIFICATIONS
For use with any standard pH or ORP sensor and all Uniloc sensors and junction boxes with built-in diag­nostic style preamplifiers, display choices are pH, ORP or Redox. The automatic buffer recognition fea­ture uses stored buffer values and their temperature curves for the most common buffer standards avail­able worldwide. The analyzer will recognize the value of the buffer being measured and perform a self stabi­lization check on the sensor before completing the calibration. Manual or automatic temperature compen­sation is keypad selectable. Change in pH due to process temperature can be compensated using a programmable temperature coefficient or isopotential point. Measurement and display of pH glass and ref­erence impedance helps alert the user to sensor maintenance needs.

MODEL SOLU COMP II SECTION 1.0
DESCRIPTION AND SPECIFICATIONS
When used with a chlorine specific membrane-covered amperometric sensor, display choices are free chlorine or total chlorine. (Total chlorine measurement requires the use of the Model SCS921 or other sample condi­tioning system). Because the permeability of the mem­brane is a function of temperature, a correction is nec­essary when the sensor is used at a temperature dif­ferent from the one at which it was calibrated. The Solu Comp II automatically applies the temperature correction factor. The process temperature is meas­ured by an RTD in the sensor. An input filter allows the user to configure the analyzer for rapid response or low noise. The low noise option is recommended for samples containing less than 0.1 ppm chlorine.
pH is also a factor in the measurement of free chlo­rine. An aqueous solution of free chlorine is a mixture of hypochlorous acid and hypochlorite ion. The rela­tive amount of each depends on the temperature and pH. Generally, increasing the pH and temperature reduces the amount of hypochlorous acid in the mix­ture. Because the response of the sensor to hypochlorous acid is greater than its response to hypochlorite, accurate determination of chlorine requires knowledge of the pH and temperature of the sample. If the pH is relatively constant, a fixed pH cor­rection factor can be entered into the analyzer. If the pH is greater than 7 and fluctuates by more than 0.2, continuous measurement of the pH and automatic pH correction is necessary. For automatic pH correction, select code -32 and an appropriate pH sensor.

For use with most pulse signal flow sensors, the Solu Comp II's user selectable units of measure include flow rates in GPM (Gallon per minute), LPM (liters per minute), or m3/hr (cubic meters per hour), and veloci­ty in ft/sec or m/sec. When configured to measure flow, the unit also acts as a totalizer in the chosen unit (gallons, liters, or cubic meters).
Dual flow instruments can be configured as a % recovery device or a flow difference device.

When used with an oxygen permeable membrane­covered amperometric sensor, display choices are ppb or ppm dissolved oxygen or % saturation. Because the permeability of the membrane is a func­tion of temperature, a correction is necessary when the sensor is used at a temperature different from the one at which it was calibrated. The Solu Comp II automatically applies the temperature correction fac­tor. The process temperature is measured by an RTD in the sensor. Calibrating the analyzer is as simple as exposing the sensor to air and keying in the baromet­ric pressure. If removing the sensor from the process is impractical, the analyzer can also be calibrated against a standard instrument. Solubility correction factors for liquids containing high concentrations of electrolytes can be registered into the analyzer. The Solu Comp II automatically calculates ppb/ppm dis­solved oxygen taking into account the high salt con­centration.

For use with an ozone permeable membrane-covered amperometric sensor. Because the permeability of the membrane is a function of temperature, a correction is necessary when the sensor is used at a temperature different from the one at which it was calibrated. The Solu Comp II automatically applies the temperature correction factor. The process temperature is meas­ured by an RTD in the sensor. The Solu Comp II is calibrated taking a measurement of the ozone level in the process by an independent chemical method and setting the display equal to the measured value. An input filter allows the user to configure the analyzer for rapid response of low noise. The low noise option is recommended for samples containing less than 0.1 ppm dissolved ozone.

5.3 CONFIGURING AND RANGING THE OUTPUTS.
5.3.1 Purpose
The Solu Comp II accepts input from a pH, ORP, or conductivity sensor and has two current outputs. This section describes how to configure and range the outputs. CONFIGURE THE OUTPUTS FIRST.
1. Configuring an output means
a. Selecting either a 4-20 mA or 0-20 mA output,
b. Assigning a sensor and a measurement (pH, ORP, redox potential, conductivity, resistivity, or total dis-
solved solids [TDS]) to output 1 and output 2,
c. Turning on or turning off output current dampening,
d. Choosing a linear or logarithmic output.
2. Ranging the outputs means assigning values to the low (0 or 4 mA) and high (20 mA) outputs.
5.3.2 Definitions
1. CURRENT OUTPUTS. The analyzer provides either a continuous 4-20 mA or 0-20 mA output current directly proportional to pH, ORP, redox potential, conductivity, resistivity, or TDS.
2. ASSIGNING OUTPUTS. Figure 5-1 shows the ways in which the outputs can be assigned.
3. DAMPEN. Output dampening smooths out noisy readings. It also increases the response time of the output. With output dampening the time to reach 63% of final reading following a step change is 5 sec. Output damp­ening does not affect the response time of the display.
4. MODE. The current output can be made directly proportional to the displayed value (linear mode) or directly proportional to the common logarithm of the displayed value (log mode).

Alarm relays are single pole-double throw (SPDT). When an alarm is activated, the coil is energized.
When an alarm activates, AL1, AL2, or AL3 (as appropriate) appears periodically in the display.
4. USP 24 ALARM. Any alarm, if assigned to sensor 2 (conductivity) can be configured as a USP 24 alarm. A USP 24 alarm activates when the non-temperature-corrected conductivity (raw conductivity) of the water is within a user-selectable percentage (safety range) of the USP 24 limit. For example, at 40°C the USP 24 limit is 1.7 µS/cm. If the safety range is 10%, the USP 24 alarm activates when the raw conductivity exceeds 1.7 ­(0.1 x 1.7) or 1.53 µS/cm.

5.4 CONFIGURING ALARMS AND ASSIGNING SETPOINTS
5.4.1 Purpose
This section describes how to do the following:
1. assign an alarm relay to a sensor,
2. set the alarm logic to high or low,
3. assign values to the alarm setpoints,
4. set the alarm deadbands.
ALARM RELAYS MUST BE CONFIGURED BEFORE ASSIGNING SETPOINTS.
5.4.2 Definitions
1. ASSIGNING ALARMS. There are three alarms (AL1, AL2, and AL3). Alarms 1 and 2 can be assigned to any sensor. For example, AL1 and AL2 can be assigned to sensor 1 with, perhaps, one alarm configured as a high alarm and the other as a low alarm, and AL3 can be assigned to sensor 2. Alarm 3 can be assigned to either sensor or used as a fault alarm. The fault alarm activates when a fault exists in a sensor or the analyzer.
2. FAULT ALARM. A fault condition exists when the Solu Comp II detects a problem with a sensor or with the ana­lyzer that is likely to cause seriously erroneous readings. If Alarm 3 was programmed as a fault alarm, the alarm 3 relay will activate. The word Fault will appear alternately in the display with the reading.
3. ALARM LOGIC, SETPOINTS, AND DEADBANDS. See Figures 5-2 and 5-3.
FIGURE 5-2. High Alarm Logic
The alarm activates when the pH exceeds the high setpoint. The alarm remains activated until the reading drops below the value determined by the deadband.
FIGURE 5-3. Low Alarm Logic
The alarm activates when the conductivity drops below the low setpoint. The alarm remains activated until the reading increases above the value determined by the deadband.

5.5 SELECTING THE TYPE OF MEASUREMENT AND ACTIVATING SOLUTION TEMPERATURE CORRECTIONS
5.5.1 Purpose
This section describes how to do the following:
1. Program the Solu Comp II to measure pH, ORP, redox potential, conductivity, resistivity, or total dissolved
solids.
2. Enable or disable glass impedance fault.
3. Select a solution temperature correction for pH.
4. Change the analyzer pH isopotential point.
5. Select a solution temperature correction for conductivity.
5.5.2 Definitions — pH/ORP
1. ORP. ORP is oxidation-reduction potential. It is the voltage difference between a noble metal (usually plat-
inum) indicator electrode and a silver/silver chloride reference electrode.
2. REDOX. Redox is redox potential. Redox potential is measured the same way as ORP. The sign of the redox
potential is the negative of ORP.
3. SIGN CONVENTION. The ORP of a solution of 0.1 M iron (II) ammonium sulfate and 0.1 M iron (III) ammoni-
um sulfate in 1 M sulfuric acid is positive. The redox potential is negative.
4. GLASS IMPEDANCE FAULT. The Solu comp II can be used with pH sensors having advanced diagnostic fea-
tures, which permit the continuous determination of glass and reference electrode impedance. When the ana­lyzer detects low glass impedance, indicating a broken or cracked glass membrane, it automatically displays a fault message. If the Solu Comp II is to be used with non-glass pH electrodes, the glass impedance fault should be disabled.
5. SOLUTION TEMPERATURE CORRECTION. The pH of a solution, particularly an alkaline one, is a function
of temperature. If the temperature changes, so does the pH, even though the concentration of the acid or base causing the pH remains constant. Solution temperature compensation converts the pH at the measurement temperature to the pH at a reference temperature. The Solu Comp II corrects the pH to a reference tempera­ture of 25°C.
For an accurate solution temperature correction, the exact composition of the solution must be known. The Solu Comp II has built-in temperature corrections for high purity water and for dilute solutions of a strong base. The analyzer also accepts a custom correction.
6. CUSTOM TEMPERATURE CORRECTION. The custom temperature correction has units of pH/°C. The
example shows how the analyzer uses the custom correction. Suppose the pH of the solution being measured decreases 0.022 units for every Celsius degree rise in temperature. The temperature correction is -
0.022pH/°C. If the pH at 20°C is 8.95, the corrected pH (at 25°C) is 8.95 + (-0.022)(25 - 20) or 8.84.
7. ISOPOTENTIAL pH. The isopotential pH is the pH at which the cell voltage (the cell is the pH electrode, ref-
erence electrode, and solution being measured) is independent of temperature. Most pH cells have isopoten­tial pH reasonably close to 7.00, so the Solu Comp II assumes the cell isopotential pH is 7.00. However, cer­tain specialized electrodes have isopotential pH different from 7.00.
NOTE
Do NOT change the isopotential pH of the transmitter unless you are thoroughly familiar with the role of sensor and analyzer isopotential point in pH measure­ment, OR the sensor operating instructions specifically state the isopotential pH is a value other than pH 7.00.
Page 47
MODEL SOLU COMP II SECTION 5.0
PROGRAMMING THE ANALYZER
5.5.3 Definitions — conductivity/resistivity
1. NEUTRAL SALT CORRECTION. Neutral salt temperature correction is appropriate for most applications
involving natural and treated waters in which neutral salts are primarily responsible for the conductivity. It is NOT suitable if the sample is a dilute acid or base. The neutral salt correction programmed into the Solu Comp II takes into account the contribution of water to the overall conductivity (or resistivity). Therefore, the neutral salt works for high purity water as well as for waters having higher conductivity. The correction algo­rithm assumes the salt is sodium chloride. Because the change in the conductivity of sodium chloride solutions with temperature is similar to most other aqueous salt solutions, the correction is suitable for most applications. The correction applies between 0 and 100°C, and the reference temperature is 25°C.
2. LINEAR TEMPERATURE COEFFICIENT OR TEMPERATURE SLOPE. The change in the conductivity of
most electrolyte solutions having conductivity greater than about 5 µS/cm at 25°C can be expressed by the the following equation:
C25=
C
t
1+ a(t - 25)
In the equation, C
25
is the conductivity at 25°C, Ctis the conductivity at t°C, and a is the linear temperature coefficient. The linear temperature coefficient, or temperature slope, has units of %/°C. In the equation, the temperature coefficient is expressed as a decimal fraction. The linear temperature coefficient depends to some extent on both the temperature and concentration of the salt solution. The temperature coefficient also varies from salt to salt.
For maximum accuracy, the temperature coefficient must be appropriate for the salt or salts in solution, their concentration, and the temperature. Frequently, the relationship must be determined by experiment. Fortunately, for most dilute neutral electrolyte solutions, a linear temperature coefficient of 2.00%/°C (0.0200) is appropriate. The table gives typical ranges for different dilute electrolyte solutions.
Slope (%/°C)
Neutral salts 1.8 - 2.2
Acids and acid salts 1.0 - 1.6
Bases and basic salts 1.6 - 3.0
High purity water Use neutral salt correction
3. CATION TEMPERATURE CORRECTION. Cation conductivity, sometimes called acid conductance, is used in steam power plants to measure salt contamination in boiler feedwater and steam. The Solu Comp II automat­ically corrects for the variation in the conductivity of extremely dilute hydrochloric acid with temperature and displays the conductivity at 25°C. The correction is valid to 100°C, so the Solu Comp II can be used for degassed cation conductivity measurements. Cation conductivity temperature correction also applies to semi­conductor etch rinse baths, which contain trace amounts of acids.
4. RAW. Raw conductivity is the conductivity of the sample at the measurement temperature.
5. TDS. TDS is total dissolved solids. The Solu Comp II calculates TDS (in ppm) by multiplying the conductivity (corrected to 25°C using a temperature coefficient of 2%/°C) by 0.65.

5.6 CHOOSING TEMPERATURE UNITS AND MANUAL OR AUTOMATIC TEMPERATURE COMPENSATION
5.6.1 Purpose
This section describes how to do the following:
1. Choose temperature display units (°C or °F).
2. Choose automatic or manual temperature compensation for pH.
3. Choose automatic or manual temperature correction for conductivity/resistivity.
4. Enter a temperature for manual temperature compensation.
5.6.2 Definitions — pH
1. AUTOMATIC TEMPERATURE COMPENSATION — pH. The analyzer uses a temperature-dependent factor
to convert measured cell voltage to pH. In automatic temperature compensation, the analyzer measures the temperature and automatically calculates the correct conversion factor. For maximum accuracy, use automat­ic temperature compensation.
2. MANUAL TEMPERATURE COMPENSATION — pH. In manual temperature compensation, the analyzer con-
verts measured voltage to pH using the temperature entered by the user. It does not use the actual process temperature. Do NOT use manual temperature compensation unless the process temperature varies no more than about ±2°C or the pH is between 6 and 8. Manual temperature compensation is useful if the sensor tem­perature element has failed and a replacement sensor is not available.
5.6.3 Definitions — Conductivity/Resistivity
1. AUTOMATIC TEMPERATURE CORRECTION — CONDUCTIVITY. The conductivity of an electrolyte solution
depends strongly on temperature. To allow comparison among measurements made at different temperatures, conductivity and resistivity measurements are usually converted to the value at 25°C. The Solu Comp II per­forms the correction automatically using a neutral salt, dilute acid, or linear temperature coefficient algorithm. See Section 5.5.3 for more information.
2. MANUAL TEMPERATURE CORRECTION — CONDUCTIVITY. In manual temperature compensation, the
analyzer converts measured conductivity (or resistivity) to the value at 25°C using the temperature entered by the user. It does not use the actual process temperature.

6.1 INTRODUCTION
The Calibrate Menu allows the user to calibrate sensor 1 (pH or ORP) and sensor 2 (conductivity). The tempera­ture response of each sensor can also be calibrated.
For pH sensors, two-point buffer calibration is standard. In auto calibration the analyzer calculates the pH of the buffer from the nominal value entered by the user and does not accept calibration data until readings are stable. In manual calibration the user enters buffer values and judges when readings are stable. The pH reading can also be standardized, that is, forced to match the reading from a referee instrument. Finally, if the user knows the elec­trode slope (at 25°C), he can enter it directly.
The ORP calibration is a single-point calibration against an ORP standard.
For conductivity measurements, several types of calibration are possible. The sensor and analyzer can be cali­brated as a unit against a solution having an accurately known conductivity, or they can be calibrated against a referee instrument. The analyzer and sensor can also be calibrated separately. The analyzer is calibrated against a known resistance. The sensor cell constant can be measured independently and the results entered directly into the Solu Comp II.

MODEL SOLU COMP II SECTION 6.0
CALIBRATION
6.2 CALIBRATING TEMPERATURE
6.2.1 Purpose
Temperature is important in the measurement of pH, ORP, and conductivity (or resistivity) for different reasons.
Temperature affects the measurement of pH in three ways.
1. The analyzer uses a temperature dependent factor to convert measured cell voltage to pH. Normally, a slight inaccuracy in the temperature reading is unimportant unless the pH reading is significantly different from 7.00. Even then, the error is small. For example, at pH 12 and 25°C, a 1°C error produces a pH error less than ±0.02.
2. During auto calibration, the Solu Comp II recognizes the buffer being used and calculates the actual pH of the buffer at the measured temperature. Because the pH of most buffers changes only slightly with temperature, reasonable errors in temperature do not produce large errors in the buffer pH. For example, a 1°C error caus­es at most an error of ±0.03 in the calculated buffer pH.
3. The Solu Comp II can be programmed to calculate and display pH at a reference temperature (25°C). The maximum change in solution pH with temperature is about ±0.04 pH/°C, so a 1°C temperature error does intro­duce a small error. However, the major source of error in solution temperature compensation is using an incor­rect temperature coefficient.
Temperature affects the measurement of ORP in a complicated fashion that is best determined empirically.
Conductivity is a strong function of temperature. Therefore, to compare conductivity measurements made at dif­ferent temperatures, conductivity must be converted to the value at a reference temperature, usually 25°C. The conductivity of most dilute electrolyte solutions changes about 2%/°C, so a small error in temperature is of little consequence. The conductivity of high purity water changes about 5%/°C or more, so small errors in temperature can lead to substantial errors in the corrected conductivity. Although accurate temperature measurement is impor­tant, often the major error in the corrected conductivity arises from the use of an incorrect temperature coefficient.
Without calibration the accuracy of the temperature measurement is about ±0.4°C. Calibrate the sensor/analyzer unit if
1. ±0.4°C accuracy is not acceptable
2. the temperature measurement is suspected of being in error. Calibrate temperature by making the analyzer reading match the temperature measured with a standard thermometer.

6.2.2 Procedure
1. Remove the sensor from the process. Place it in an insulated container of water along with a calibrated ther­mometer. Submerge at least the bottom two inches of the sensor. Stir continuously.
2. Allow the sensor to reach thermal equilibrium. For some sensors, the time constant for a change in tempera­ture is 5 min., so it may take as long as 30 min. for temperature equilibration.
3. If the sensor cannot be removed from the process, measure the temperature of a flowing sample taken from a point as close to the sensor as possible. Let the sample continuously overflow an insulated container hold­ing a calibrated thermometer.
4. Change the Solu Comp II display to match the calibrated thermometer using the procedure below.

6.3 AUTO CALIBRATION — pH
6.3.1 Purpose
1. New sensors must be calibrated before use. Regular recalibration is also necessary.
2. Use auto calibration instead of manual calibration. Auto calibration avoids common pitfalls and reduces errors.
6.3.2 Definitions
1. AUTO CALIBRATION. The analyzer recognizes the buffers and uses temperature-corrected pH values in the calibration. The table lists the buffers the Solu Comp II recognizes.
Note 1: NIST is National Institute of Standards, DIN is Deutsche Institute für Normung, JSI is Japan Standards Institute, and BSI is British Standards Institute.
Note 2: pH 7 buffer is not a standard buffer. It is a popular commercial buffer in the United States.
The Solu Comp II also measures noise and drift and does not accept calibration data until readings are sta­ble. Calibration data will be accepted as soon as the pH reading is constant to within 0.02 units for 10 sec­onds. The stability settings cannot be changed.
2. SLOPE AND OFFSET. Once the Solu Comp II suc­cessfully completes the calibration, it calculates and displays the calibration slope and offset. The slope is reported as the slope at 25°C. Figure 6-1 defines the terms.
6.3.3 Procedure
1. Obtain two buffer solutions. Ideally the buffer pH val­ues should bracket the range of pH values to be meas­ured.
2. Remove the sensor from the process liquid. If the process and buffer temperatures are appreciably dif­ferent, place the sensor in a container of tap water at the buffer temperature. Do not start the calibration until the sensor has reached the buffer temperature. Thirty minutes is usually adequate.
3. Calibrate the sensor by using the procedure on the following page.

6.4 MANUAL CALIBRATION — pH
6.4.1 Purpose
1. New sensors must be calibrated before use. Regular recalibration is also necessary.
2. Use manual calibration if non-standard buffers are being used; otherwise, use auto calibration. Auto calibra­tion avoids common pitfalls and reduces errors.
6.4.2 Definitions
1. MANUAL CALIBRATION. In auto calibration the analyzer recognizes the buffer and uses the temperature-cor­rected pH value in the calibration. The analyzer also measures noise and drift and does not accept calibration data until readings are stable. During manual calibration, the user must judge when readings are stable and look up and enter the buffer values.
2. SLOPE AND OFFSET. Once the Solu Comp II successfully completes the calibration, it calculates and dis­plays the calibration slope and offset. The slope is reported as the slope at 25ºC. Figure 6-1 defines the terms.
6.4.3 Procedure
1. Obtain two buffer solutions. Ideally, the buffer pHs should bracket the range of pH values to be measured. Also obtain a thermometer. The pH of most buffer solutions is a function of temperature. To calibrate the sensor properly, the pH of the buffer at the measurement temperature must be entered in the analyzer.
2. Remove the sensor from the process liquid. If the process and buffer temperature are appreciably different, place the sensor in a container of tap water at the buffer temperature. Do not start the calibration until the sen­sor has reached the buffer temperature. Thirty minutes is usually adequate.
3. Calibrate the sensor using the procedure on the following page.

6.5 STANDARDIZATION — pH
6.5.1 Purpose
1. The pH measured by the Solu Comp II analyzer can be changed to match the reading from a second or ref­eree instrument. The process of making the two readings agree is called standardization.
2. During standardization, the difference between the two pH values is converted to the equivalent voltage. The voltage, called the reference offset, is added to all subsequent measured cell voltages before they are con­verted to pH. If a standardized sensor is placed in a buffer solution, the measured pH will differ from the buffer pH by an amount equivalent to the standardization offset.
6.5.2 Procedure
1. Install the sensor in the process liquid.
2. Once readings are stable, measure the pH of the liquid using a referee instrument.
3. Because the pH of the process liquid may change if the temperature changes, measure the pH of the grab sample immediately after taking it.
4. For poorly buffered samples, it is best to determine the pH of a continuously flowing sample from a point as close as possible to the sensor.
5. Standardize the Solu Comp II analyzer by following the steps below.

6.7 ORP CALIBRATION
6.7.1 Purpose
1. For process control, it is often important to make the measured ORP agree with the ORP of a standard solu­tion.
2. During calibration, the measured ORP is made equal to the ORP of a standard solution at a single point.
6.7.2 Preparation of ORP standard solutions
ASTM D1498-93 gives procedures for the preparation of iron (II) - iron (III) and quinhydrone ORP standards. The iron (II) - iron (III) standard is recommended. It is fairly easy to make, is not particularly hazardous, and has a shelf life of about one year. In contrast, quinhydrone standards contain toxic quinhydrone and have only an eight-hour shelf life.
Iron (II) - iron (III) standard is available from Rosemount Analytical as PN R508-16OZ. The ORP of the standard solution measured against a silver-silver chloride reference electrode is 476±20mVdc at 25°C. The redox poten­tial is -476±20mVdc at 25°C.

6.8 CALIBRATING AN IN-SERVICE SENSOR — CONDUCTIVITY
6.8.1 Purpose
1. After a conductivity sensor has been in service for a period of time, recalibration may be necessary.
2. There are three ways to calibrate a sensor.
a. Use a standard instrument and sensor to
measure the conductivity of the process stream. It is not necessary to remove the sensor from the process piping. See Figure 6-2. The temper­ature correction used by the standard instru­ment may not exactly match the temperature correction used by the Solu Comp II. To avoid
errors, turn off temperature correction in the both the analyzer and the standard instru­ment.
b. Place the sensor in a solution of known conduc-
tivity and make the analyzer reading match the conductivity of the standard solution. Use this method if the sensor can be easily removed from the process piping and a standard is available. Be care­ful using standard solutions having conductivity less than 100 µS/cm. Low conductivity standards are high­ly susceptible to atmospheric contamination. Avoid calibrating sensors with 0.01/cm cell constants against conductivity standards in the range 100 to 300 µS/cm. The resistance of these solutions may be too low for an accurate measurement. Calibrate sensors with 0.01/cm cell constant using method c. For addition­al information, see ASTM D5391.
c.
To calibrate a 0.01/cm sensor
, check it against a standard instrument and 0.01/cm
sensor
while both
sen-
sor
s are measuring water having a conductivity between 5 and 10 µS/cm. To avoid drift caused by absorp-
tion of atmospheric carbon dioxide, saturate the sample with air before making the measurements.
FIGURE 6-2. Calibration Against a Standard Cell
To ensure adequate flow past the sensor during calibration, take the sample downstream from the sensor. For best results, use a flow-through standard cell. If the process tem­perature is much different from ambient, keep connecting lines short and insulate the flow cell.
MODEL SOLU COMP II SECTION 6.0
CALIBRATION
4. Turn off temperature correction.
6.8.2 Procedure-Calibration against a standard meter and cell
1. Calibration against a standard meter and cell transfers the calibration of the standard instrument to the process instrument.
2. Calibrate the standard meter and cell using an accepted procedure, for example ASTM D 1125, S
tandard Methods 2510, or equivalent. A portable, calibrated standard meter and cell is available from Rosemount Analytical (Model Number 1055C-01-99SQ SQ6053).
3. Most conductivity instruments automatically correct measured conductivity to the value at 25°C. Different instruments may apply slightly different temperature corrections. To avoid errors during calibration, turn off
automatic temperature correction in both the analyzer and the standard meter.
NOTE
If a portable reference meter is not available and the conductivity of the grab sample must be determined in the laboratory, temperature correction in both the Solu Comp II and the laboratory instrument MUST REMAIN ON. Be sure that the reference instrument and the Solu Comp II are applying the same temperature correction.

6.8.3 Procedure-Calibration against a standard solution
1. Remove the sensor from the process. Rinse it with deionized water.
2. Rinse the sensor with standard solution. Immerse the sensor in the solution to above the vent holes. Move the sensor up and down several times to ensure liquid touches all the inside surfaces. Repeat twice, using fresh solution each time.
3. If the conductivity of the standard is defined at only certain temperatures, use a constant temperature bath to keep the solution at the required temperature. Measure temperature with a calibrated thermometer or use the Solu Comp II to measure temperature. If temperature is not shown in the main display, press or until a screen showing temperature appears. To prevent contamination and evaporation, keep the standard in a covered container until it reaches temperature. Once the standard is at the desired temperature, place the rinsed sensor in the solution. Immerse the sensor to well above the vent holes. Move the sensor up and down to let air bubbles escape. When making the measurement, keep the sensor at least 1/4 inch (6 mm) away from the bottom and sides of the container. If the sensor touches the container, the conductivity reading may be in error.
4. If the conductivity of the standard as a function of temperature is known, simply fill a container with standard solution and place the rinsed sensor in the container. Immerse the sensor to well above the vent holes. Move the sensor up and down to let air bubbles escape. When making the measurement, keep the sensor at least 1/4 inch (6 mm) away from the bottom and sides of the container. If the sensor touches the container, the con­ductivity reading may be in error. Also place a calibrated thermometer in the solution or use the Solu Comp II to measure temperature. If temperature is not shown in the main display, press or until a screen show­ing temperature appears. Note the conductivity of the standard at the measured temperature.
5. Turn off temperature correction in the Solu Comp II.

6.10 CALIBRATING THE ANALYZER - CONDUCTIVITY.
6.10.1 Purpose
1. After a conductivity analyzer has been in service for a period of time recalibration may be necessary.
2. To check the calibration of the Solu Comp II, see Section 8.7. If the calibration does not meet specifications, the analyzer can be recalibrated according to Section 6.10.2.
3. To calibrate the Solu Comp II, replace the conductivity cell with a known resistance and make the analyzer reading match the resistor value. The resistor(s) used for calibration must be accurate to within ±0.1%.
6.10.2 Procedure
1. Use a standard resistor (accuracy ±0.1%) or a standard decade box (accuracy ±0.1%) for the calibration.
2. Choose the resistor based on the cell constant being used and the range of the measurement.
Some of the conductivity values in the table are near the extreme ends of the recommended range for the cell constant. Refer to the table in Section 8.4.5 for recommended ranges.
3. Disconnect the sensor leads and connect the standard resistor or decade box to terminals 4 and 6 on TB5.
If a standard decade box is being used, keep the leads as short as possible (less than 5 ft). It is not necessary to disconnect the RTD leads.

8.1 OVERVIEW
The Solu Comp II continuously monitors itself and the sensor for faults. When the analyzer detects a fault, the word fault appears in the display alternately with the measurement. If alarm 3 was configured as a fault alarm, the alarm relay will energize. The outputs do not change during a fault condition. They continue to reflect the measured pH, ORP, conductivity, resistivity, TDS, or temperature. Press "to display the fault codes.
8.2 TROUBLESHOOTING USING FAULT CODES
8.2.1 Absolute Value of Measured Voltage Exceeds 2500 mV
The voltage of a pH cell is usually between 600 mV and -600 mV, and the voltage of an ORP cell is between 2000 and -2000 mV. Readings outside the range -2500 mV to 2500 mV usually indicate a problem with sensor wiring or analyzer electronics.
A. If the sensor is being installed for the first time, check the wiring connections. See Section 3.2. If a junction
box is being used, check connections at the junction box, too.
B. If the preamplifier is in a junction box, verify that the wires supplying the power (±5 Vdc) to the preamplifier are
connected at the analyzer and junction box.
C. Verify that the sensor is completely submerged in the process liquid.

8.2.2 pH Sensitive Glass Membrane is Broken
The Solu Comp II continuously measures the impedance between the sensor solution ground and the inside of the pH-sensing electrode. If the glass membrane is intact, the impedance is normally between 10 Mand 1000 MΩ. If the membrane is cracked or broken, the impedance drops below 10 M. If the membrane is cracked or broken, the sensor must be replaced.
8.2.4 RTD for Sensor 1 or Sensor 2 Open or Shorted.
There is an open or short in the sensor RTD or wiring. A. If sensor is being installed for the first time, check the wiring connections. See Section 3.2. B. Disconnect the sensor from the analyzer and measure the resistance between the RTD lead wires. See the
sensor manual to identify the RTD leads. If there is an open or short circuit, replace the sensor.
C. If there is no open or short, check the analyzer. See Section 8.8.
FIGURE 8-1. Continuity and Leakage Check.
Use an ohmmeter to measure the resistances indi­cated. Be sure the sensor is dry when checking the resistance.
8.2.3 Conductivity Sensor Open or Shorted
Open or shorted means an open or short circuit in the
conductivity sensor or wiring. An open error may also mean that the sensor is not immersed in the process liq­uid.
A. If sensor is being installed for the first time, check the
wiring connections. See Section 3.2.
B. Verify that the sensor is completely immersed in the
process liquid.
C. Remove the sensor from the process liquid. Rinse
with water. Inspect the sensor for obvious signs of damage such as cracks or chips. Verify that the vent holes are not blocked.
D. Disconnect the sensor from the analyzer and
check continuity and leakage resistance as shown in Figure 8-1. If the resistances are not in limits, replace the sensor.
E. If the resistances are in limits, check the analyzer.
See Section 8.7.
8.2.5 RTD Sense Line for Sensor 1 or Sensor 2 is Open.
The Solu Comp II measures temperature using a three-wire RTD. See Figure 8-5. The in and return leads connect the RTD to the measuring circuit in the analyzer. A third wire, called the sense line, is connected to the return line. The sense line allows the analyzer to correct for the resistance of the in and return leads and to correct for changes in lead wire resistance with temperature.
A. Verify that all wiring connections are secure.
B. The analyzer can be operated with the sense line open. The measurement will be less accurate because the
analyzer can no longer correct for lead wire resistance and for changes in lead wire resistance with ambient temperature. However, if the sensor is to be used at approximately constant temperature, the lead wire resist­ance error can be eliminated by calibrating the sensor at the measurement temperature. Errors caused by changes in lead wire resistance with changes in ambient temperature cannot be eliminated.To make the error message disappear, connect the RTD sense and return terminals with a jumper.

8.3.1 Difference Between Solu Comp II and Standard Thermometer is Greater Than 3°C.
A. Is the standard thermometer, RTD, or thermistor accurate? General purpose liquid-in-glass thermometers, par-
ticularly ones that have been mistreated, can have surprisingly large errors.
B. Is the temperature element in the pH sensor completely submerged in the test liquid?
C. Is the standard temperature sensor submerged to the correct level?
D. Review Section 6.2.
8.3.2 Calibration Error During Two-Point Calibration
Once the two-point (manual or automatic) calibration is complete, the Solu Comp II automatically calculates the sensor slope (at 25°). If the slope is greater than 60 mV/pH or less than 45 mV/pH, the analyzer displays the Calibration Error screen and does not update the calibration. Check the following:
A. Are the buffers accurate? Inspect the buffers for obvious signs of deterioration, such as turbidity or mold
growth. Neutral and slightly acidic buffers are highly susceptible to molds. Alkaline buffers (pH 9 and greater) that have been exposed to air for long periods may also be inaccurate. Alkaline buffers absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, which lowers the pH. If a high pH buffer was used in the failed calibration, repeat the calibration using a fresh buffer. If fresh buffer is not available, use a lower pH buffer. For example, use pH 4 and 7 buffer instead of pH 7 and 10 buffer.
B. Was adequate time allowed for temperature equilibration? If the sensor was in a process substantially hotter
or colder than the buffer, place it in a container of water at ambient temperature for at least 20 minutes before starting the calibration. Using auto calibration avoids calibration errors caused by temperature drift. The ana­lyzer will not update readings until the drift is less than 0.02 pH over 10 seconds.
C. Were correct pH values entered during manual calibration? Using auto calibration eliminates errors caused by
improperly entering data.
D. Is the sensor properly wired to the analyzer? Check the sensor wiring including any connections in a junction
box. See Section 3.2.
E. Is the sensor dirty or coated? See the sensor instruction manual for cleaning instructions.
F. Is the sensor faulty? With the main display showing, use or to scroll through
the information screens until the electrode impedance screen (at left) is displayed. Refer to the table on the following page for an interpretation of the impedance readings.
Another way of checking for a faulty sensor is to replace it with a new one. If the new sensor can be calibrat­ed, the old sensor has failed.
G. Is the analyzer faulty? The best way to check for a faulty analyzer is to simulate pH inputs. See Section 8.6.

TROUBLESHOOTING
8.3.3 Calibration Error during Standardization.
During standardization, the millivolt signal from the pH cell is increased or decreased until it agrees with the pH reading from a referee instrument. A unit change in pH requires an offset of about 59 mV. The Solu Comp II limits the offset to ±1400 mV. If the standardization causes an offset greater than ±1400 mV, the analyzer will display the Calibration Error screen. The standardization will not be updated. Check the following:
A. Is the referee pH meter working and properly calibrated? Check the response of the referee sensor in buffers.
B. Is the process sensor working properly? Check the process sensor in buffers.
C. Is the sensor fully immersed in the process liquid? If the sensor is not completely submerged, it may be meas-
uring the pH of the liquid film covering the glass bulb and reference element. The pH of this film may be dif­ferent from the pH of the bulk liquid.
D. Is the sensor fouled? The sensor measures the pH of the liquid adjacent to the glass bulb. If the sensor is
heavily fouled, the pH of liquid trapped against the bulb may be different from the bulk liquid.
E. Has the sensor been exposed to poisoning agents (sulfides or cyanides) or has it been exposed to extreme
temperature? Poisoning agents and high temperature can shift the reference voltage many hundred millivolts. To check the reference voltage, see Section 8.9.
8.3.4 Invalid Input While Manually Entering Slope.
If the sensor slope is known from other sources, it can be entered directly into the analyzer. The Solu Comp II will not accept a slope (at 25°C) outside the range 45 to 60 mV/pH. See section 8.3.2 for troubleshooting sensor slope problems.
8.3.5 Sensor Does Not Respond to Known pH Changes.
A. Did the expected pH change really occur? If the process pH reading was not what was expected, check the
performance of the sensor in buffers. Also, use a second pH meter to verify the change.
B. Is the sensor properly wired to the analyzer?
C. Is the glass bulb cracked or broken? Check the glass electrode impedance. See Section 8.3.2, step f.
D. Is the analyzer working properly. Check the analyzer by simulating the pH input.
8.3.6 Buffer Calibration Is Acceptable, Process pH Is Slightly Different from Expected Value.
Differences between pH readings made with an on-line instrument and a laboratory or portable instrument are nor­mal. The on-line instrument is subject to process variables, for example ground potentials, stray voltages, and ori­entation effects that may not affect the laboratory or portable instrument. To make the process reading agree with a referee instrument, see Section 6.5.

TROUBLESHOOTING
8.3.7 Calibration Was Successful, but Process pH Is Grossly Wrong and/or Noisy.
Grossly wrong or noisy readings suggest a ground loop (measurement system connected to earth ground at more than one point), a floating system (no earth ground), or noise being brought into the analyzer by the sensor cable. The problem arises from the process or installation. It is not a fault of the analyzer. The problem should disappear once the sensor is taken out of the system. Check the following:
A. Is a ground loop present?
1. Verify that the system works properly in buffers. Be sure there is no direct electrical connection between the buffer containers and the process liquid or piping.
2. Strip back the ends of a heavy gauge wire. Connect one end of the wire to the process piping or place it in the process liquid. Place the other end of the wire in the container of buffer with the sensor. The wire makes an electrical connection between the process and sensor.
3. If offsets and noise appear after making the connection, a ground loop exists.
B. Is the process grounded?
1. The measurement system needs one path to ground: through the process liquid and piping. Plastic pip­ing, fiberglass tanks, and ungrounded or poorly grounded vessels do not provide a path. A floating system can pick up stray voltages from other electrical equipment.
2. Ground the piping or tank to a local earth ground.
3. If noise still persists, simple grounding is not the problem. Noise is probably being carried into the instru­ment through the sensor wiring.
C. Simplify the sensor wiring.
1. Disconnect all sensor wires at the analyzer except pH/mV IN, REFERENCE IN, RTD IN and RTD RETURN. See the wiring diagrams in Section 3.2. If the sensor is wired to the analyzer through a remote junction box containing a preamplifier, disconnect the wires at the sensor side of the junction box.
2. Tape back the ends of the disconnected wires to keep them from making accidental connections with other wires or terminals.
3. Connect a jumper wire between the RTD RETURN and RTD SENSE terminals (see wiring diagrams in Section 3.2). Connect a second jumper wire between the REFERENCE IN and SOLUTION GROUND ter­minals.
4. If noise and/or offsets disappear, the interference was coming into the analyzer through one of the sensor wires. The system can be operated permanently with the simplified wiring.
D. Check for extra ground connections or induced noise.
1. If the sensor cable is run inside conduit, there may be a short between the cable and the conduit. Re-run the cable outside the conduit. If symptoms disappear, there is a short between the cable and the conduit. Likely a shield is exposed and touching the conduit. Repair the cable and reinstall it in the conduit.
2. To avoid induced noise in the sensor cable, run it as far away as possible from power cables, relays, and electric motors. Keep sensor wiring out of crowded panels and cable trays.
3. If ground loops persist, consult the factory. A visit from an experienced technician may be required to solve the problem.

in Section 8.4.5. Choose a conductivity standard approximately in the center of the range.
C. Is a 0.01/cm sensor being calibrated? Generally, it is best not to calibrate 0.01/cm cells against standard solu-
tions. Standards having low conductivity are readily contaminated by atmospheric carbon dioxide. Contamination increases the apparent conductivity of the standard, leading to cell constants that are too low. Standards having high conductivity can also be a problem. When high conductivity solutions are measured with low constant sensors, the solution resistance is low. The resistance of the oxide film on the electrodes may then be contributing an appreciable amount to the measured resistance. Thus, the apparent conductivity is too low, and the cell constant is too high. It is best to calibrate 0.01/cm cells against a 0.01/cm standard cell using a solution with conductivity between 5 and 10 µS/cm.
D. Has the correct conductivity been entered? If calibration was done with temperature correction turned off, be
sure to enter the conductivity of the standard at the measurement temperature. If temperature correction was left on, use the conductivity at 25°C. Verify that the temperature correction algorithm being used is appropri­ate for the standard.
E. Were readings, including temperature, stable before calibration?
8.4.4 Possible Error Warning During Calibration Against a Standard Meter and Cell.
A. Review Section 6.8.1 and 6.8.2.
B. Is the calibration of the standard instrument correct and is the cell constant of the standard the same decade
as the sensor being calibrated?
C. Is the temperature correction in the Solu Comp II and the reference instrument either both turned off (recom-
mended) or both turned on? If the temperature correction is on, are both instruments using the same temper­ature correction?
D. Is there good circulation of test solution around the sensors?
E. Were readings, including temperature, stable before calibration?

B. Verify that the sensor is completely immersed in the process liquid.
C. Be sure the sensor has a cell constant appropriate for the liquid being measured. Refer to the table below.
D. Remove the sensor from the process liquid. Rinse with water. Inspect the sensor for obvious signs of damage
such as cracks or chips. Verify that the vent holes are not blocked. If the sensor is dirty or fouled, clean it. Usually, rinsing the sensor with a forceful stream of water is adequate. A soft bristle brush, like a toothbrush, may help dislodge solids. Do not use a wire brush. For advice concerning the use of chemical solvents, refer to the sensor instruction manual.

8.6 SIMULATING INPUTS — pH
8.6.1 General
This section describes how to simulate a pH input into the Solu Comp analyzer. To simulate a pH measurement, connect a standard millivolt source to the transmitter. If the transmitter is working properly, it will accurately meas­ure the input voltage and convert it to pH. Although the general procedure is the same, the wiring details depend on the location of the preamplifier.
8.6.2 Simulating pH input when the preamplifier is in the analyzer.
1. Turn off automatic temperature correction and solution tempera­ture correction. From the Program menu, choose Temp. Then choose Live/Manual and enter 25°C. See Section 5.6 for details.
2. Disconnect the sensor and connect a jumper wire between termi­nals 1 and 6 and terminals 4 and 6 on TB4. See Figure 8-2.
3. From the display menu choose the pH/temperature/mV screen. The measured voltage should be 0 mV and the pH should be
7.00. Because calibration data stored in the analyzer may be off­setting the input voltage, the displayed pH may not be exactly
7.00.
4. If a standard millivolt source is available, disconnect the jumper wire between terminals 1 and 6 and connect the voltage source as shown in Figure 8-2. Be sure to jumper the reference and solution ground terminals.
5. Calibrate the analyzer using the procedure in Section 6.3. Use 0.0 mV for Buffer 1 (pH 7.00) and -177.4 mV for Buffer 2 (pH 10.00). If the analyzer is working properly it should accept the calibration. The slope should be 59.16 mV/pH and the offset should be zero.
6. To check linearity, return to the main display and the pH/temperature/mV screen. Set the voltage source to the values shown in the table and verify that the pH and millivolt readings match the values in the table.
8.6.3 Simulating pH input when the preamplifier is in a
junction box.
The procedure is the same as described in Section 8.6.2. Keep the connections between the analyzer and the junction box in place. Disconnect the sensor at the sensor side of the junction box and connect the voltage source as shown in Figure 8-3.
8.6.4 Simulating pH input when the preamplifier is in the sensor.
The preamplifier in the sensor simply converts the high impedance signal into a low impedance signal without amplifying it. To simulate pH values, follow the procedure in Section 8.6.2.

8.7 SIMULATING INPUTS — CONDUCTIVITY
To check the performance of the analyzer, use standard resistors to simulate conductivity.
A. Set the temperature correction to raw (Section 5.5).
B. Connect the standard resistors to TB-5 as shown in
Figure 8-4.
C. Determine how closely the displayed resistivity or
conductivity agrees with the known resistance.
To convert resistance to conductivity, use the equation:
Conductivity (µS/cm) = x 10
6
or
Conductivity (mS/cm) = x 10
3
Thus, if the cell constant is 0.103/cm and the standard resistance is 500 , the displayed conductivity should be (0.103/cm)(106)/(500) or 206 µS/cm.
To convert resistance to resistivity, use the equation:
Resistivity (M-cm) =
Thus, if the cell constant is 0.01020/cm and the standard resistance is 100 k(0.100 M), the displayed resis­tivity should be (0.100 M)/(0.01020/cm) or 9.80 MΩ-cm.
Consult the table for the accuracy specification:

8.8 SIMULATING TEMPERATURE
8.8.1 General.
The Solu Comp II accepts either a Pt100 or a Pt1000 RTD in a three-wire configuration. See Figure 8-5.
8.8.2 Simulating temperature
To simulate the temperature input, wire a decade box to the analyzer or junction box as shown in Figure 8-6.
To check the accuracy of the temperature measure­ment, set the resistor simulating the RTD to the values indicated in the table and note the temperature read­ings. The measured temperature might not agree with the value in the table. During sensor calibration an offset might have been applied to make the measured tem­perature agree with a standard thermometer. The offset is also applied to the simulated resistance. The Solu Comp II is measuring temperature correctly if the differ­ence between measured temperatures equals the differ­ence between the values in the table to within ±0.1°C.
For example, start with a simulated resistance of 103.9 , which corresponds to 10.0°C. Assume the offset from the sensor calibration was -0.3 . Because of the offset, the analyzer calculates temperature using 103.6 . The result is 9.2°C. Now change the resistance to 107.8 Ω, which corresponds to 20.0°C. The analyzer uses 107.5 to calculate the temperature, so the display reads
19.2°C. Because the difference between the displayed temperatures (10.0°C) is the same as the difference between the simulated temperatures, the analyzer is working correctly.
FIGURE 8-5. Three-Wire RTD Configuration.
Although only two wires are required to connect the RTD to the analyzer, using a third (and some­times fourth) wire allows the analyzer to correct for the resistance of the lead wires and for changes in the lead wire resistance with temperature.

FIGURE 8-7. Checking for a Poisoned Reference
Electrode.
Refer to the sensor wiring diagram to identify the reference leads. A laboratory silver/silver chloride electrode can be used in place of the second sensor.

8.9 MEASURING REFERENCE VOLTAGE
Some processes contain substances that poison or shift the potential of the reference electrode. Sulfide is a good example. Prolonged exposure to sulfide converts the reference electrode from a silver/silver chloride electrode to a silver/silver sulfide electrode. The change in reference voltage is several hundred millivolts. A good way to check for poisoning is to compare the voltage of the reference electrode with a silver/silver chloride electrode known to be good. The reference electrode from a new sensor is best. See Figure 8-7. If the reference electrode is good, the voltage difference should be no more than about 20 mV. A poisoned reference electrode usu­ally requires replacement.
