Product catalog summary
Measurement and Control Overview
The 4001 series measuring cycle involves several key phases: sample entry for washing/priming, initial measurement (photometric zero), reagent introduction via peristaltic pump, reaction development through stirring, and color reading (absorbance). The differential measurement is processed electronically to determine concentration, displayed in mg/l, and used to control dosing components. The system is cost-effective with automatic calibration per cycle, suitable for industrial applications like water analysis and various product analyses.

Photometry and Colorimetric Technique
Photometry is crucial for quantitative analysis of organic and inorganic compounds, using colorimetric methods that rely on specific chemical reactions to develop color proportional to substance concentration. The technique is advantageous over UV/IR spectrophotometry due to its linear reactions and minimal interference. The Palin method uses the DPD principle for oxidant concentration determination, ensuring factors like pH and temperature do not affect results.

4001 Series Specifications
The photometric measuring cell includes an RS485 interface, PVC/Plexiglas/glass body, LED, silicon photosensor, and electrode holder. It operates with a water supply of 60 l/h and max pressure of 1 bar. Various versions are available for measuring free chlorine, peracetic acid, chlorine dioxide, ozone, and more, each with specific ranges, resolutions, and precision.

Technical Specifications
The system features an intuitive interface with a large display for graphing stored measurements. It includes a peristaltic pump for reagent efficiency, continuous reagent monitoring, and a data logger with 4 Mbit flash memory. Analogue outputs are available for each parameter, with relay outputs for set points and alarms. The system supports RS485 serial output with MODBUS RTU protocol and operates within specific temperature and humidity conditions. Power supply ranges from 100 to 240 VAC with electrical protection standards.

Mechanical Dimensions
The device measures 598x601x190 mm, with a total height including valves of 601 mm.

4001 Photometry Series-1

4001 series The photometric method In recent decades, photometry has developed as an essential means of analysis because it enables the “quantitative” determination of both organic and inorganic compounds. The technique uses the colorimetric methods characteristic of certain analytes, i.e. the properties of certain chemical reagents to develop colour with an intensity proportional to the concentration of a given substance, at a particular wavelength of the spectrum visible between the UV and IR (from 400 to 800 nm). Compared to UV or IR spectrophotometry, the colorimetric technique has the tremendous advantage of relying on well-dened linear reactions with few well-known interfering substances. The Palin method employs the interactive DPD principle to determine the concentration of certain oxidants such as: free chlorine, total chlorine, chlorine dioxide, ozone, peracetic acid, bromine, permanganate etc. The DPD reacts with the oxidant present in the water, almost instantly producing a pink colour, making sure that all those factors that may affect measurement (pH, μS, °C, organic matter etc.) have no inuence on the analytical methodology. The phases of the 4001 measuring cycle are: • Entry of the sample in the measuring cell for washing/priming • First measurement on the sample as is ( photometric zero ) • Reagents introduced via peristaltic pump • Development of the reaction through stirring • Reading of the colour ( absorbance ): The differential measurement between the zero and the absorbance is processed by the electronic processor and converted into a concentration value, using specic correlation tables developed in our laboratories. The electronic controller displays the substance measured in mg/l and decides whether or not to activate the dosing components designed to control or correct it. The running and maintenance costs are very low and, especially, system calibration takes place automatically at each measuring cycle. Industrial applications include the analysis of drinking and waste water as well as the analysis of food products, pharmaceuticals, chemicals etc.
