Free & Total Chlorine in Ballast Water Treatment
Free & Total Chlorine in Ballast Water Treatment
AlpHa’s RC67 and RC68 chlorine sensors offer precise, continuous measurement of free and total chlorine, hence making them ideal for ballast water treatment. Their advanced amperometric technology ensures reliable readings without additional chemical reagents, which is crucial for effective disinfection.
Some features of the RC67 and RC68 include:
Wide Measurement Range: Adjustable from 0-2 ppm to 0-100 ppm.
Versatile Outputs: Supports analog (4-20 mA or 0-5 V) and digital (RS-485 MODBUS RTU) formats.
High Accuracy and Resolution: Provides accuracy of 0.2 ppm or 4% and a resolution of 0.01 ppm.
Temperature Compensation: Integrated to maintain performance across 0 to 50°C.
Low Maintenance: Requires monthly calibration with a quick response time (T90 in 120 seconds).
Robust Design: Constructed from durable materials like PVC, CPVC, ABS, and Ryton.
