The Model 2000 Mixed Liquor Analyzer is a dual channel analyzer designed for the continuous measurement of dissolved oxygen and/or suspended solids in mixed liquor aeration basin. The analyzer will accept any combination of two sensors, (DO or SS) and automatically configure for the correct operation.  The system allows for flexible and economical mixed liquor monitoring and control. 

The DO sensor to be used with this analyzer is an optical type sensor that measures the fluorescence and quenching reactions of a ruthenium complex that is immobilized in a sol-gel matrix. The DO sensor does not need membranes, fill solutions, nor routine calibrations and maintenance.  The SS sensor operates on the principle of single gap infrared light absorption as a means of detecting the presence of suspended solids. The SS sensor is based on near infrared technology, which eliminates inaccuracies caused by changes in the process colour or changes in particle size.

Applications:

  • Aeration Basins
  • Solids Contact Chambers
  • MLSS Channels
  • Plant Effluents
  • Aeration Ditches

Relay There is one independent programmable set point control relay for each channel. These relays are Form-C with contacts rated 10/6 amps resistive load at 125/250 VAC. Two Form-A relays with contacts rated 10/6 amps resistive load at 125/250 VAC are used for the jet clean function. The connections for the relay outputs are available from TB6. See drawing IIG04R011 for connection details.

Installation and Start-Up Requirements INSTALLATION and STARTUP

  1. A rear rail mounting kit is available for the standard enclosure (see Drawing IIG01N010). This mounting kit is design for a standard 2" handrail but can be adapted to square or angle handrails as well.
  2. Mount the sensors in the desired location. InsiteIG can supply a sensor handrail mounting kit that easily mounts to most handrails and slide locks the sensor into place with out the use of tools. (see drawings IIG02N004, IIG02N005, IIG03N004 and IIG03N005). Again, this sensor mounting kit is design for a standard 2" handrail but can be adapted to square or angle handrails as well.
  3. Open the enclosure of the Mixed Liquor Analyzer. Pass all connection cables through glands or ½" conduit in the bottom of the enclosure (gland and conduit are not supplied). The sensor input connections are made to the terminal block TB5 labeled SENSOR 1 and TB7 labeled SENSOR 2 (see drawing IIG04R011). The four wires are color coded and there is a cable shield. Connect the RED wire to the terminal labeled "RED". Connect the GREEN wire to the terminal labeled "GRN". Connect the WHITE wire to the terminal labeled "WHT". Connect the BLACK wire to the terminal labeled "BLK". Connect the cable SHIELD to the terminal labeled "SHLD". Power connections are made to the terminal block labeled TB3. The analog outputs are available on the terminal block labeled TB1 and the relay outputs are available on the terminal block labeled TB6.

     

  4. Check switch S4 on the circuit board to be sure that it is set for the type of power being used (115 volts or 230 volts). Turn power "on" by using switch S3. Close and secure the enclosure.
  5. After being turned on, the unit will initialize and then jump into the "RUN" mode and begin displaying Channel 1 "CH 1" content on the upper portion of the display and Channel 2 "CH 2" content on the lower portion of the display.

 

Note: The Model 10 sensor undergoes a thorough and accurate test and calibration procedure before shipment from the factory. Calibration of the system at startup is not necessary and is not recommended.

Recommended Spare Parts none
Maintenance Requirements MAINTENANCE

The analyzer does not require any periodic maintenance. The sensors must be kept free of debris for accurate readings.

Model 10 D.O. Sensor: In normal wastewater aeration basins the Model 10 Sensor will not require a jet clean system; however it is important that the aqueous sample to be measured be allowed to come in contact with the measuring surface. The sensor should be visually inspected on a monthly basis to insure that rags and hair have not completely covered the measuring surface. During this time we recommend rinsing the sensor with a water hose.

In systems with high bio-slim and scaling, the integrated jet clean system is recommended to be used to prevent the slim and scale from attaching itself to the measuring surface.

Fouling conditions at wastewater treatment facilities varies considerably from plant to plant. Experience gained during the first few months of sensor operation will allow the plant operators to determine their own reasonable schedule of sensor inspection. In no case should this inspection interval exceed one year.

Model 15 S.S. Sensor: The sensor does not require any periodic maintenance if the jet clean option is selected (strongly recommended). The sensor must be kept clean for accurate readings. Normally, the jet clean system will adequately perform this function. However, the sensor should be retrieved and cleaned manually on a periodic basis to remove the heaviest fouling that may impair the performance of the sensor. The frequency of this cleaning will vary depending on the application.

Sensor Storage Requirements When Out of Service None
Level of Skill (required to operate, maintain and calibrate instrument) Minimal
Special Tools or Other Devices Required for Maintenance and Calibration none
Warranty 2 year
Annual Cost of Replacement/Calibration Parts $0.00
