NH3Sys_PBS1
Process buoy for Ammonia

NH3Sys_PBS1 is an insitu Ammonia - Nitrogen analyser, utilising a gas sensitive electrode as the detection device.

It is a complete self-calibrating wet chemical analyser and sample preparation system in a single insitu housing, removing the need for pumps, pipes sample preparation and GRP housings.

Sampling is by means of hydrostatic head, which first fills a settlement chamber to reduce solids to a minimum. Clarified liquid is then allowed into the measuring chamber, where EDTA/caustic solution is dosed and stirred to raise pH to 11.5 . When equilibrium is reached the NH3-N signal is logged and stored. The system is then pressurised by the on board compressor to evacuate the liquid sample and the whole cycle is repeated. On calibration the sample is retained in the measuring cell and dosed with one and then eight aliquots of high standard, the response being logged on each occasion. The method of standard addition is then applied to calculate the new offset and slope.
The data is logged and displayed in numeric and graphical format. The system is designed for use in activated sludge basins, bed effluents and final effluents..
