General Purpose pH/ORP Sensor
The wetted sensor materials may not be compatible with process com position and operating conditions. Application compat ibility is entirely the responsibility of the user.
CAUTION: SENSOR/PROCESS APPLICATION COMPATIBILITY
Before removing the sensor, be absolutely certain that the process pressure is reduced to 0 psig and the process temperature is lowered to a safe level!

Figure 1. 3900 Insertion/Submersion Sensor
The 3900 Sensor responds to changes in pH at a minimum conductivity of 0.1mS/cm in deionized water. Sample flow rate must be controlled to 2 gph (7.6L/hr). The offset is approximately -0.2 pH after 3 months at ambient temperature.

Storage
1. It is recommended that electrodes be stored in their original shipping containers until needed.
2. Do not store at temperatures below -10°C (14°F). 3. Electrodes should be stored with a protective cap
containing KCl solution (PN 9210342).
4. For overnight storage, immerse the sensor in tap water or 4 pH buffer solution.
5. pH glass electrodes slowly deteriorate in storage. There is no specific expiration date. However, the calibration procedure described below should be followed to determine that the sensor calibrates properly.
Electrode preparation
1. Remove electrode from shipping container.
2. Remove the protective boot covering the electrode bulb. 3. Rinse away salt film with clean water, then shake the
electrode so that the internal solution fills the bulb, thus removing any air trapped there.
Installation
For sensor orientation, see Figure 2. For sensor dimensions, see Figure 3. For mounting options, see Figures 4-7. For wiring, see Figures 8-41.
For additional wiring information, please visit our website at www.emersonprocess.com/raihome/liquid/wiring. Wrap the sensor threads with six or seven (6–7) turns of Teflon tape to prevent leakage. Do not over tighten the sensor into it’s receptacle. Hand tighten the sensor, and then tighten one or two (1–2) turns with a wrench.
Two point buffer calibration
Select two stable buffer solutions, preferably pH 4.0and 10.0 (pH buffers other than pH 4.0 and pH 10.0 can be used as long as the pH values are at least two pH units apart).
NOTE: A pH 7 buffer solution reads a mV value of approx. zero, and pH buffers read approximately ± 59.1 mV for each pH unit above or below pH 7. Check the pH buffer manufacturer specifications for millivolt values at various temperatures since it may affect the actual value of the buffer solution mV/pH value.
1. Immerse sensor in the first buffer solution. Allow sensor to equilibrate to the buffer temperature (to avoid errors due to temperature differences between the buffer solution and sensor temperature) and wait for reading to stabilize. Value of buffer can now be acknowledged by analyzer/ transmitter.
2. Once the first buffer has been acknowledged by the analyzer/transmitter, rinse the buffer solution off of the sensor with distilled or deionized water.
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 using the second buffer solution.
4. The theoretical slope value, according to the Nernst equation for calculating pH, is approximately 59.1 mV/pH. Over time the sensor will age, both in the process and in storage, which will result in reduced slope values. To ensure accurate readings, it is recommended that the electrode be replaced when the slope value falls below 47 to 49 mV/pH.
Recommended pH Sensor
Standardization
For maximum accuracy, the sensor can be standardized on-line or with a process grab sample after a buffer calibration has been performed and the sensor has been conditioned to the process. Standardization accounts for the sensor junction potential and other interferences. Standardization will not change the sensor’s slope but will simply adjust the analyzer’s reading to match that of the known process pH.
1. All pH/ORP sensors have a plastic enclosure which must only be cleaned with a damp cloth to avoid the danger due to a build up of an electrostatic charge.
2. All pH/ORP sensor models are intended to be in contact with the process fluid and may not meet the 500V r.m.s. a.c. test to earth. This must be taken into consideration at installation.
ATEX DIRECTIVE: Special Conditions for safe use
The solution used during calibration is an acid and should be handled with care. Follow the directions of the acid manufacturer. Wear the proper protective equipment. Do not let the solution come in contact with skin or clothing. If contact with skin is made, immedi-ately rinse with clean water.

Maintenance for pH electrode
Electrodes should respond rapidly. Sluggishness, offsets, and erratic readings are indicators that the electrodes may need cleaning or replacement.1. To remove oil deposit, clean the electrode with a mild non-abrasive detergent.
2. To remove scale deposits, soak electrodes for 1 to 5 minutes in a 5% hydrochloric acid solution.
3. Temperature effect on life expectancy: If glass electrode life expectancy is 100% at 25°C (77°F), then it will be approximately 25% at 80°C (176°F), and approximately 10% at 100°C (212°F).
ORP Calibration
1. After making an electrical connection between the sensor and the instrument, obtain a standard solution of saturated quinhydrone PN R508-8OZ (475mV). This can also be made quite simply by adding a few crystals of quinhydrone to either pH 4 or pH 7 buffer. Quinhydrone is only slightly soluble, therefore only a few crystals will be required. 2. Immerse the sensor in the standard solution. Allow
1-2 minutes for the ORP sensor to stabilize. 3. Standardize the instrument to the solution value
shown in the table, right. The resulting potentials, measured with a clean platinum electrode and Hydrochloric acid is toxic and highly corrosive. Avoid skin contact, wear protective gloves. Use only in a well venti-lated area. Do not inhale fumes. In case of an accident, consult a doctor immediately.
CAUTION
saturated KCl/AgCl reference electrode, should be within +/- 20 millivolts of the value shown in the table below. Solution temperature must be noted to ensure accurate interpretation of results. The ORP value of saturated quinhydrone solution is not stable over long periods of time. Therefore, these standards should be made up fresh each time they are used. 4. Remove the sensor from the buffer, rinse, and install
in the process.

2. To remove scale deposits, soak electrodes for 1 to 5 minutes in a 5% hydrochloric acid solution.
3. ORP (metallic) electrodes should be polished with moistened baking soda.

The Jet Spray Cleaner eliminates routine, manual sensor maintenance by cleaning the sensor with water or compressed air. Flow through the cleaner can be controlled by a solenoid valve.
NOTE: The Jet Spray Cleaner can be used with Handrail Mounting Assembly (PN 11275-01, not shown) or can be mounted through conduit as shown below.

*The minimum inlet pressure is required to open a check valve, which pre-vents 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.

Ordering Information
The 3900/3900VP pH/ORP Sensor is housed in a PSS plastic body with built-in solution ground for advanced diagnostics. A Pt-100 RTD is offered for temperature compensator. The sensor is available with an integral cable or VP8 connector. Junction box kits with preamplifiers
can be ordered separately if an analyzer/ transmitter with an integral preamplifier is not located within 15 ft. of the sensor. SMART preamplifier (-01) is the standard pream-plifier option, and is compatible with models XMT, 3081, 5081, 6081, 54e, 1055 and 1056 analyzers/transmitters.
