Addition or presence of disinfectants containing stabilizers like cyanuric acid or 5,5-Dimethylhydantoin or organic chlorine compounds perturb the measurement. A controlled dosing system
depending on chlorine surplus cannot operate with these products.
Cleaner and corrosion preventives (phosphates) may perturb the
measurement.
Do not use copper tubes in the water treatment area. Copper perturbs the sensor system.
No sand (or other polishing material) or oil are allowed in the sample.

cell and sensor occasionally with water of higher disinfectant concentration, e.g. by switching to a sample line before dechlorination.
To do a sensible correction, a certain amount of chlorine is required, which may not be available during normal operation.
The Trides always measures the total of all added disinfectants.
Separation measurements are not possible.

Product Description
2. Product Description
2.1. Description of the System
Application
Range
The AMI Trides is used to measure and control in potable water,
sanitary water and swimming pools the following disinfectants:
Hypochlorous acid
Free chlorine
Ozone
Chlorine-dioxide
Bromine
Iodine
There are two main applications:
1 Control of set-point
The instrument is used to measure and maintain a certain disinfectant value in the system. The disinfectant is added with a dosing
unit.
2 Dechlorination
The disinfectant is removed to protect a device, which is sensitive
to disinfectants, e.g. a reverse osmosis. The instrument detects the
remaining disinfectant level after dechlorination and superintends
that the disinfectant concentration does not exceed the max. limit
value. Otherwise a warning is issued.

Product Description
Measuring
principle
About free
chlorine
3-electrode amperometry:
The sensor consists of two platinum electrodes and a reference
electrode. A voltage is applied between the measuring electrode
(platinum rod) and the counter electrode (platinum ring) of the trides sensor. The disinfectant in the sample generates a small current between the electrodes, which is proportional to the
disinfectant concentration. The reference electrode controls the
voltage and guarantees optimal measuring conditions on the platinum sensor.
For optimal sensitivity, a rotor continuously cleans the surfaces of
the platinum electrodes (hydrodynamic cleaning). A Hall-effect sensor measures the rotations of the rotor to detect if there is sufficient
flow.
The signal of amperometric systems depends on flow. The flow cell
with constant head excludes all flow effects if the sample always
overflows into the longer constant head tube.
Temperature compensation is done automatically.
If chlorine is dissolved in water, it decomposes into hypochlorous
acid and hypochlorite. Free chlorine = hypochlorous acid + hypochlorite. The ratio depends on the pH value.
At pH 7: 77% hypochlorous acid, 23% hypochlorite
At pH 8: 25% hypochlorous acid, 75% hypochlorite
The hypochlorous acid is a much better disinfectant than hypochlorite. This means the efficiency of disinfection depends on pH value.

Product Description
Hypochlorous
acid
Free Chlorine
+ HOCl
Amperometric sensors measure mainly the hypochlorous acid.
Therefore, the higher the pH value is, the lower the current of the
sensor.
A pH compensation of the sensor signal is necessary to be able to
compare the value directly to the DPD method. For that select
<Free chlorine> in menu 5.1.3 <Installation / Sensors /Disinf.> The
pH must be measured by an optional pH electrode or be programmed correctly.
If hypochlorous acid is chosen as disinfectant in 5.1.3, the pH compensation is switched off. The displayed values show the efficiency
of disinfection. Only during correction, the value is shown as free
chlorine and can be therefore directly compared to the manual DPD
value.
If you program Free+HOCl (HOCl=hypochlorous acid) as disinfectant in 5.1.3 you can set the hypochlorous acid as parameter on the
signal outputs. The displayed value will be free chlorine.
On-line
operation
Grab sample The grab sample outlet is used to take sample from the Trides con-
The sample enters at the sample inlet [E]. It passes the filter vessel
[G] and the flow regulating valve [D], where the sample flow is adjusted, and fills the constant head [A]. Sample must always overflow via the overflow tube [B] into the waste to ensure constant
pressure at the Trides sensor [F].
A part of the sample flows through the overflow tube [C] to the Trides sensor [F], turns the rotor and leaves via sample outlet [H] into
the waste. The rotation of the rotor is detected with a Hall-effect
sensor to assure the sufficient sample flow. An inconsistent sample
flow causes the rotor to turn slowly (or stop) and produces a system
error.
stant head. This sample is used to make a comparison measurement with an other instrument.
The standard method to correct the AMI Trides is the DPD photometric method. Use a high quality photometer to determine the reference value, e.g. Swan Chematest.

Program all parameters for instrument operation (limits, alarms).
Calibrate pH/Redox electrode if installed.
Let instrument operate 24 h without interruption at normal sample

Let instrument operate at least 5 days without interruption at
normal sample conditions. Make zero point calibration. Correct
disinfection value if necessary.

3.3. Connecting Sample and Waste
The first part of this chapter describes the preparing and placing of
the system for use.
The instrument must only be installed by trained personnel.
Mount the instrument in vertical position.
For ease of operation mount it so that the display is at eye
level.
For the installation a kit containing the following installation
material is available:
– 6 Screws 6 x 60 mm
– 6 Dowels
– 6 Washers 6.4/ 12 mm
The instrument is only intended for indoor installation.
For dimensions see Dimensions, p. 15.

3.4. Install the Reference Electrode
The reference electrode is delivered separately and protected with
a waterfilled protective cap. The connector is fixed to the panel with
an adhesive tape and already connected to the front end PCB in
the AMI transmitter.

2 Remove the protective cap [B] from the reference electrode [C].
3 Push the reference electrode through the union nut [D] into the
bore of the flow cell block [E] as far as it will go.
4 Tighten the union nut.
5 Remove the connector [A] from the panel and screw it onto the
reference electrode.

WARNING
Risk of electrical shock
Installation and maintenance of electrical parts must be performed by professionals
Always turn off AC power before manipulating electric parts.
1 Open the transmitter housing
2 Feed the cable of the electrode through one of the PG 7 cable
glands [C] into the transmitter housing.
3 Connect the coaxial plug [A] to the plug on the front end PCB
[B].
4 Close the transmitter housing.
5 Switch on the instrument.

WARNING
External Voltage.
External supplied devices connected to relay 1 or 2 or to the
alarm relay can cause electrical shocks
Make sure that the devices connected to the following con-
tacts are disconnected from the power before resuming installation.
–relay 1
–relay 2
– alarm relay
WARNING
To prevent from electrical shock, do not connect the instrument
to the power unless the ground wire (PE) is connected.
Do not connect unless specifically instructed to do so.
WARNING
The mains of the AMI Transmitter must be secured by a main
switch and appropriate fuse or circuit breaker.
