2 Basic safety instructions
2.1 Requirements for personnel
• Installation, commissioning, operation and maintenance of the measuring system may be
carried out only by specially trained technical personnel.
• The technical personnel must be authorized by the plant operator to carry out the specified
activities.
• The electrical connection may be performed only by an electrical technician.
• The technical personnel must have read and understood these Operating Instructions and
must follow the instructions contained therein.
• Faults at the measuring point may only be rectified by authorized and specially trained
personnel.
Repairs not described in the Operating Instructions provided must be carried out only
directly at the manufacturer's site or by the service organization.
2.2 Intended use
The sensor is used to determine the VIS/NIR absorption of a liquid medium. The sensor is
suitable for use in a wide range of applicationsin a variety of industrial sectors , such as:
• Suspended solids measurement
• Pharmaceuticals and biotechnology
• Chemical industry
• Paper and pulp industry
• Interphase detection
• Food and beverage industry
• Chemical industry
• Oil and gas industry
• Centrifuge and separator control
Use of the device for any purpose other than that described, poses a threat to the safety of
people and of the entire measuring system and is therefore not permitted.
The manufacturer is not liable for damage caused by improper or non-designated use.
2.3 Workplace safety
As the user, you are responsible for complying with the following safety conditions:
• Installation guidelines
• Local standards and regulations
• Regulations for explosion protection
Electromagnetic compatibility
• The product has been tested for electromagnetic compatibility in accordance with the
applicable international standards for industrial applications.
• The electromagnetic compatibility indicated applies only to a product that has been
connected in accordance with these Operating Instructions.

2.4 Operational safety
Before commissioning the entire measuring point:
1. Verify that all connections are correct.
2. Ensure that electrical cables and hose connections are undamaged.
3. Do not operate damaged products, and protect them against unintentional operation.
4. Label damaged products as defective.
During operation:
‣If faults cannot be rectified:
products must be taken out of service and protected against unintentional operation.
2.5 Product safety

3.2 Measuring principle
Light absorption
The measuring principle is based on the Lambert-Beer law.
There is a linear dependency between the absorption of light and the concentration of the
absorbing substance:
A = -log(T) = ε . c . OPL
T = I/I0
T ... Transmission
I ... Intensity of received light at detector
I0 ... Intensity of transmitted light of light source
A ... Absorption
ε ... Extinction coefficient
c ... Concentration
OPL ... Optical path length
A light source emits radiation through the medium and the incident radiation is measured on
the detector side.
The intensity of the light is determined by a photodiode and converted to a photocurrent.
The subsequent conversion to absorbance units (AU, OD) is performed in the associated
transmitter.
