[. . . ] Use a watertight cord grip to insert the sensor cable and the interconnect cable into the junction box that has a terminal strip designed to make the proper connections. Connect both the sensor cable wires and the interconnect wires to the terminal strip. Use a watertight cord grip to insert the sensor cable into the Alpha pH2000D Controller. Conduit holes are found on the bottom of the Alpha pH2000D controller for this purpose. Connect the sensor wires to the Alpha pH2000D controller as outlined in the controller manual. Be sure that the wire colors of the sensor cable match those of the interconnect cable on either side of the terminal strip. Connect the sensor wires into the Alpha pH2000D sensor terminal block as shown in the Alpha pH2000D manual. Remove the protective cap from the sensor head and make sure moisture is present and that the salt bridge has not dried out. If the protective cap is dry, the sensor should be hydrated in tap water for at least 1 hour prior to calibration. It is recommended to use a 2-point buffer calibration on installation of the sensor. If measurement response time is slow or if the sensor will not calibrate, refer to Section 4 for maintenance, refurbishment and troubleshooting suggestions. Insert the sensor into the tee and slowly turn clockwise until secure. Be sure the pipe remains full when the sensors are installed. 2. 3. 3. 2. 2. Immersion Mounting For immersion mounting applications the sensor is connected to a 1½ inch extension pipe to protect the cable from damage and to reduce the possibility of leaks that may damage the sensor. Figure 3. 5: Immersion mounting assembly www. thermofisher. com Detailed Insertion Mount Installation Instructions 1. Attach the sensor to the 1. 5 inch NPT coupling by turning the sensor in a clockwise direction until secure. Either route the cable directly to the Alpha pH2000D or splice the wires in a junction box and use an extension cable. Insert the cable into the Alpha pH2000D controller through a watertight cord grip. Conduit holes are provided for the cord grip on the bottom of the Alpha pH2000D controller. Connect the sensor wires into the Alpha pH2000D sensor terminal block as shown in the Alpha pH2000D manual. Remove the protective cap from the sensor head and make sure moisture is present and that the salt bridge has not dried out. If the protective cap is dry, the sensor should be hydrated in tap water for at least 1 hour prior to calibration. It is recommended to use a 2-point buffer calibration on installation of the sensor. [. . . ] Disconnect the RED and GREEN sensor wires from the analyzer terminal block while leaving the other wires connected. Connect the (+) lead of a millivolt meter to the RED wire and the (-) lead of the millivolt meter to the GREEN wire. Stir the sensor for 10 to 15 seconds and then allow the sensor to stabilize in solution for about 2 minutes. If the reading is higher or lower than specified, replace the salt bridge and filling solution and try again. [. . . ]
