Operating instructions

Keep the original packaging of the device in case it needs to be returned for repairs.

2.3 Measurement Principle and Design

The chlorine sensor is a membrane-covered potentiostatic 
3-electrode measuring cell with a specially arranged counter 
electrode. The measuring electrode is covered by a membra-
ne and, together with the reference electrode, is located in 
an electrolyte chamber which is separated from the sample 
water and contains a special electrolyte. 

With this patented measuring method, chlorine diffuses 
from the sample water through the membrane and triggers 
an electrical signal in connection with the electrolyte at the 
measuring electrode. This electrical signal is proportional to 
the chlorine concentration and is amplified by the sensor 
electronics. Due to an integrated temperature compensati-
on, the measuring signal is independent of the temperature 
of the sample water.
