behrotest® AQUABOX Flow-through Unit

Construction:

The flow-through behrotest® AQUABOX enables the determination of on-site parameters (temp., pH, conductivity, O2) under conditions of homogeneous representative sampling.

The unit permits the simultaneous determination of electrical, chemical and physical parameters under optimal and reproducible flow conditions.

The AQUABOX is constructed of transparent shock-resistant PETG, a thermoplastic copolyester having good chemical resistance and FDA approval. Transparency enables visual identification of problems at all times during operation (e.g. sand or sediment contamination). All components, which come in contact with water are constructed either of PETG (lid and flow chamber) or PP (in-flow and out-flow pipes), without use of adhesives. Therefore the water being sampled is not affected by any release of contaminants from the materials constituting the AQUABOX. The lid of the AQUABOX is shields against spray/splashes and is easily opened and closed by means of quick-release fasteners. The lid has six variable-diameter splash-resistant ports for inserting sensors/electrodes of up to 25 mm diameter. Ports of larger diameter are available on special order.

Functional Principle:

Within the AQUABOX inner container, the water spirals upward around the circularly positioned measurement sensors. The flowing water spirals upward and out over the rim of the central measurement container and exits via a concentric splash-protective outer annular housing. Six ports are positioned in the lid and acommodate sensors of varying diameter. The sensors are securely held within the optimal flow region.

Withdrawl of water for sample collection is performed by means of opening a bypass valve, which is built into the water inflow line.

Advantages:

• For laboratory and on-site use
• For permanent installation or transportable use
• Simultaneous measurement of up to 6 parameters allows rapid repeat determinations
• Sample collection tap located at AQUABOX inlet
• Optimized flow conditions for sensors
• Standard pipe thread fittings for hose connection
• Universal sensor ports accept all common electrodes
• Constructed of transparent inert PETG
• Simple to use and clean. Needs no maintenance.
