AMS Instrumentation and Calibration introduces the new CF60 conductivity
sensors from optek, designed to provide precise and reliable control of
conductivity directly in the process at very low volumes.
optek’s CF60 conductivity sensors feature a superior six-electrode,
four-pole design with the patented arrangement of four current electrodes
around the two potential electrodes delivering a reliable and precise
measurement of a broad conductivity range from 1 µS/cm up to 850 mS/cm. The unique
design also provides greatly reduced sensitivity to sensor fouling and polarisation.
Designed for ultra-sterility, the six electrodes are sealed in the
FDA-compliant PEEK sensor tip without the use of o-rings or epoxies.
Key features of optek’s CF60 conductivity sensors include a Pt1000
platinum RTD integrated in the tip of the sensor providing fast-response
temperature compensation; inline sensor body ensuring smooth and unrestricted
flow of all process fluids with minimal hold-up and hydrostatic shear; and unique
design delivering rapid sensor response, precise measurements and maximised
product recovery and quality.
The CF60 conductivity sensors are manufactured using only high quality, certified
and traceable materials, and can be provided with special wetted parts for
superior resistance to acids, bases as well as organic and inorganic solvents.
The CF60 sensor is suitable for CIP/SIP applications.
When used with an optek Converter Control 200, the CF60 conductivity sensor
provides a system that can be used under extremely harsh process conditions.
