Sample Flow:
500 cc/minute: 5 psig maximum
Sample Supply:
Continuous. Where sample interruption may be required;
provisions must be made to keep the electrodes wet with
fresh water.
Analyzer Location:
As close as possible to the sample point to reduce lag
time.
Speed of Response:
4 Seconds from sample entry to display indication. Full
scale residual change 1-1/2 to 2 minutes.
