Fluor und Fluorid Messgerät und Transmitter mit direkter Messung im Probenstrom
FBM-160

Fluorine Transmitter and Measuring Device (Field Installation)

Multifunctional fluorine transmitter. Measuring device with fast and direct measurement in the sample stream.
Measuring Range: Standard: 0.0 - 99.9 mg/l; 0 - 999 mg/l; 0 - 9999 mg/l or custom measuring range possible

Application

The FBM-160 Fluoride Monitor and Transmitter quickly and continuously measures the concentration of free fluoride ions in water. This direct-measuring fluoride ion system is therefore perfectly suited for field use. As it detects changes in fluorine concentration in real time, precise monitoring becomes possible. The FBM-160 offers a reliable solution, especially in water treatment, wastewater analysis, and the semiconductor and electronics industries. Above all, in areas where rinse water must be regularly tested for hydrofluoric acid, this device significantly simplifies the process.

An ion-selective electrode determines the fluoride concentration. To allow the Fluoride Monitor and Transmitter to adapt to various measurement conditions, several measuring fittings and flushing systems are available. This enables flexible responses to different measurement situations.

Flexible Configuration and Versatile Expansion Options

The FBM-160 was specifically designed for outdoor installation. The durable cast aluminum protects the Fluoride Monitor and Transmitter from environmental influences, ensuring a long service life. The membrane keypad allows for intuitive operation, while the backlit display clearly shows the measurement results even in poor lighting conditions.

Thanks to the flexible installation options, the system easily adapts to various areas of application. Water jet cleaners, nozzles, and chemical cleaning systems prevent deposits, contamination, and crystallization on the measuring electrode. Cleaning is performed automatically via the integrated measuring transducer, maintaining consistently high measurement accuracy. This eliminates the need for regular maintenance, simplifying operation and saving time.

Additional Information: Precise Fluoride Measurement with a Fluoride Electrode

The fluoride electrode generates a constant electromotive force that is directly influenced by the concentration of fluoride ions in the solution. The electromotive force of the electrode has a linear relationship with the logarithm of the fluoride ion concentration. This unique correlation allows the Fluoride Monitor and Transmitter to determine fluoride levels with high precision and reliability.

When the measuring transmitter is calibrated with a reference solution before measurement, it is sufficient to immerse the sensor in the sample to directly measure the fluoride ion concentration. This method offers a decisive advantage, as it is particularly simple and direct. Additionally, the Fluoride Monitor and Transmitter enables a rapid response to changes in fluoride concentration, allowing immediate real-time analysis. This technique proves to be extremely efficient, especially in controlled environments, as concentration changes can be detected quickly and without delay.

Short Response Time

The Fluoride Monitor and Transmitter is capable of detecting even low concentrations within just 60 seconds. Thanks to the fast response time—90 percent within this short duration—this measurement method is ideal for processes requiring continuous monitoring.
