Dual-electrode Nitrite Analysis

April 7, 2010
The Hydra Nitrate Analyzer System measures the concentration of dissolved nitrate as nitrogen (NO3-N) in water. 
Well-suited for use in municipal wastewater treatment plants, the sensor uses two electrodes to determine the NO3-N concentration: a nitrate ion electrode and a chloride ion electrode. An optional electrode is also available for pH measurement. The system’s Hydra Analyzer is configured to periodically actuate a cleaning cycle using the integral spray cleaner in the nitrate sensor, minimizing the formation of biofilms or other coatings on the electrodes and keeping maintenance to a minimum. The sensor also detects temperature, and the analyzer provides a temperature-compensation calculation for superior measurement accuracy. The Hydra Nitrate Analyzer System measures nitrate and chloride in concentrations from 0.1 to 1000ppm, pH from 0 to 14 and temperature from 0 to 50°C (32 to 122°F).Electro-Chemical Devices Inc. www.ecdi.com800.729.1333
