Positive Solutions ABB provides an unrivalled range of dedicated ph/redox (ORP) sensors for laboratory and process industrial duties. Trouble-free selection: Ideal for OEMs The AP00 series is the perfect starting point for ph or Redox (ORP) measurements. Economical in outlay yet powerful enough for the majority of standard applications, these PPS (Ryton) bodied sensors are best placed for Original Equipment Manufacturers and users with general purpose applications. The range provides uncomplicated, effective technology allowing on-site customization. Simple conversion is possible from an insertion probe into a dip-type immersion or in-line, flowthrough sensor. This allows the user to provide maximum application coverage with the minimum number of variants. A Hot-tap insertion sensor variant allows fitting and retraction through a standard, full-port ball-valve keeping installation costs to a minimum. Site Customizable: Insertion, Flow, Immersion and Hot-tap Retractable The AP0 is a PPS Ryton sensor for general applications that can be adapted to in. NPT fittings by threaded locknut process adapters. Dip-type immersion is achieved by using an immersion guard and connection of the /4 in. NPT back-thread to a customer-supplied dip-tube. The AP0 & 0 are composite combination sensors made from PVDF permitting conversion from insertion to flow or dip immersion using its front and rear /4 in. NPT threads. Completing the series, the AP04 & AP05 are fully retractable PVDF-bodied sensors enabling installation, commissioning and maintenance without the need for a costly by-pass system or long immersion sensor. This can significantly reduce new project costs. The additional benefit of the retractable method is that it permits maintenance without process shut-down. Rugged Design, Maximum Protection The inner electrolyte is a highly media-resistant gel with integral protection against process contaminants, fronted by a dirtrepellent PTFE junction. These are encapsulated in a rugged body, providing maximum resistance to chemical attack. The sensor can withstand operation up to 05 C ( F) and 6 bar (90 psi).

Retractable with Safety-by-Design Safety of operators is paramount. This is maintained by an antiblowout lip in the design of the AP04 & AP05. This prevents accidental sensor removal. Unlike chain restraints this safety-bydesign is an integral part of the sensor s construction. Ball-valve connection is achieved with either wrench-tight or hand-tight fittings. The hand-operated compression fitting provides additional safety through two separate locking rings. A Body Nut, union ring locks the sensor to the ball valve and permits sensor dismounting without complete disassembly. In addition, a compression (clamp) ring fixes the sensor into position at the desired insertion depth and seals the body from the process. This compression fitting has an integral shroud that prevents access to the smaller body nut when the clamp (compression) ring is being loosened for sensor maintenance. Cables and Junction Box Wiring Without Temperature Compensator Male BNC Pin Leads All-in-one and low maintenance The is a composite, combination electrode with all the sensor elements in one compact body; measuring element, reference and temperature sensor. This reduces outlay and maximises performance. The gel-filled reference section means that the sensor requires little maintenance other than periodic cleaning and calibration. Female BNC To or Junction Box Tagged Pin Extension Cable (Cable 4TB 0-XXX) or 970/00) Pin Leads To TB8, TB84 and 460 With Temperature Compensator Flat Glass Self-Cleaning Efficiency To promote self-cleaning, the junction design uses foulingresistant PTFE. When used with ABB Flat-Glass technology the AP00 provides maximum resistance to in-line coatings, particularly fibrous media. Male BNC and Temperature Compensator Connector Tagged Pin Leads To or Junction Box 5-Pin Lead Extension with Temperature Compensator Connector (Cable 05 6X ) Pin Leads To TB8, TB84 and 460 Flat & Bulb Glass Variants Cable Options Two cable connection methods are possible; integral cable in m (0ft), 6m (0ft) and 9m (0ft) lengths, or terminated via a fitted junction box. Each version allows for tagged sensor terminations enabling connection to a wide variety of process ph/redox (ORP) instruments with terminal blocks. Alternatively the sensor can be supplied with detachable BNC/TC connections. Junction Box (4TB50-06)
