Measurements Measurements Calibrating pH sensors 7.1.1 Calibration overview The calibration menu allows you to calibrate the pH and temperature response of the sensor. Calibrations can be performed using the manual or the auto-calibration option. In both cases, the transmitter does a two-point calibration for pH and one-point standardization against a reference thermometer for temperature.
Page 52
Measurements Procedure Press CAL on the IRC to enter the CALIBRATE menu. The CALIBRATE sub-menu appears. At the CALIBRATE sub-menu, press ENTER. The CAL bF1 prompt appears. Rinse the sensor and place it in the first buffer. Be sure the glass bulb and the temperature element are completely submerged.
Measurements 7.1.4 Manual calibration Prerequisites Ensure that auto-calibration is OFF and the appropriate buffers are used. Procedure Enter the CALIBRATE menu by pressing CAL on IRC. The CALIBRATE sub-menu appears. At the CALIBRATE sub-menu, press ENTER. The CAL BF1 prompt appears. Rinse the sensor with DI water and place it in the first buffer along with a calibrated thermometer.
Measurements 7.1.5 Standardization for pH Standardization overview Standardization is used to match the transmitter values with that of another transmitter. The difference between the two pH values is converted into an equivalent voltage, called the reference offset. Note If a sensor that has been calibrated with buffers is standardized, then placing it back in the buffer will show a different measured pH than that of the buffer due to the standardization offset.
Measurements Calibrating ORP sensors 7.2.1 ORP overview ORP is a function of temperature. The accuracy of a sensor/transmitter loop is about ± 1 °C. A new sensor does not need to be calibrated often.

Diagnostics and troubleshooting Diagnostics and troubleshooting pH/ORP diagnostics and troubleshooting 8.1.1 5081-P warning and fault messages The 5081-P pH/ORP transmitter continuously monitors the measurement loop (sensor and transmitter) for conditions that cause erroneous measurements. When a problem occurs, the transmitter displays either a warning or fault message. A warning alerts you that a potentially system disabling condition exists.
Diagnostics and troubleshooting If the transmitter is in Hold when the fault occurs, the output remains at the programmed hold value. To alert you that a fault exists, the word FAULT appears in the main display, and the display flashes. A fault or diagnostic message also appears. If the transmitter is simulating an output current when the fault occurs, the transmitter continues to generate the simulated current.
Diagnostics and troubleshooting 8.1.4 Troubleshooting when a diagnostic message is showing The 5081-P pH/ORP transmitter continuously monitors the measurement loop (sensor and transmitter) for problems. If a problem is detected, the transmitter displays a fault or error message. The message appears in the temperature/output area of the main display. The table lists each diagnostic message and the section to consult for help.
Page 66
Diagnostics and troubleshooting NOTICE GLASSFAIL is a sensor diagnostic message. Sensor diagnostic messages are optional. They can be turned off. Troubleshooting flowchart - GLASSFAIL Be sure the sensor is completely immersed in the process liquid. If the diagnostic message disappears, the sensor is in good condition. If the diagnostic message remains, go to Step 2.

Diagnostics and troubleshooting c. For Rosemount PLUS (+) and TUpH sensors that do not have an integral preamplifier, attach the blue solution ground wire to TB-8 or, better, leave the blue wire unattached and jumper TB-7 to TB-8. d. If the sensor does not have a blue solution ground wire, jumper terminals TB-7 and TB-8.
Diagnostics and troubleshooting If cleaning the sensor lowers the impedance below 800 megohms... a. The sensor is in good condition. b. Return the calibrated sensor to service. If cleaning does not lower the glass impedance and the sensor can be calibrated...
Diagnostics and troubleshooting rEF FAIL rEF FAIL is an electrode fault message. rEF FAIL means that the reference impedance exceeds the programmed reference high fault (RFH) limit. A plugged or dry reference junction is the usual cause of a high reference impedance. High reference impedance also occurs if the sensor is not submerged in the process liquid or if inappropriate limits have been entered into the transmitter.
Diagnostics and troubleshooting b. Inspect and clean the sensor. If the sensor is rebuildable, replace the reference junction and replenish the electrolyte solution. Refer to the sensor instruction manual for details. Check the reference impedance again. If cleaning the sensor reduces the impedance... a.
Diagnostics and troubleshooting CALIbrAtE CALIbrAte is a diagnostic intended for future use. If the CALIbrAte message is showing, disable CALIbrAte. tEMP HI and tEMP LO tEMP HI and tEMP LO mean the transmitter has detected a problem with the temperature measuring circuit.
Page 72
Diagnostics and troubleshooting Figure 8-3: Three-wire RTD Consult the table for resistance-temperature data. Lead resistance is about 0.05 ohm/ft at 25 °C. Therefore, 15 feet of cable increases the resistance by about 1.5 ohm. The resistance between the RTD return and RTD sense leads should be less than 2 ohms. Table 8-1: RTD resistance values Temperature...
Diagnostics and troubleshooting Figure 8-4: Temperature simulation into the 5081-P pH/ORP transmitter • If the measured temperature is correct, the transmitter is working properly. • If the measured temperature is incorrect, calibrate the transmitter against the standard resistance equivalent to 25 °C (77 °F). Change the resistance and verify that the temperature reading changes to the correct value.
Diagnostics and troubleshooting • If the diagnostic message disappears, either the RTD return or RTD sense wire is broken. To verify a broken wire, disconnect the leads and measure the resistance between them. Installing the jumper completes the circuit, but bypasses the three-wire function.
Diagnostics and troubleshooting • If the message remains, go to Step 4. Confirm that the problem is with the remote preamplifier. Wire the pH sensor directly to the transmitter. Change the menu from PAMP=SnSr to trAnS for the test and return it to SnSr afterwards. •...
Diagnostics and troubleshooting If the glass impedance is less than about 20 megohms, the glass has cracked and the electrode must be replaced. If the glass impedance is greater than about 20 megohms, the sensor is probably in good condition. Go to Step 5. Check transmitter performance by simulating pH inputs.
Diagnostics and troubleshooting if the transmitter responds to simulated inputs, the problem must lie with the sensor or the interconnecting wiring. Verify the interconnecting wiring point to point. Fix or replace bad cable. If cable is good, replace the pH sensor. Std Err Std Err means the reference electrode voltage has changed drastically.
Diagnostics and troubleshooting Troubleshooting WritE Err Check the position of jumper JP1 on the CPU board. If the jumper is hanging off one of the pins, place it across both pins. If the jumper is missing entirely, use jumper JP3 (50/60 Hz), which is not a critical jumper.
Diagnostics and troubleshooting Symptom Section Display segments missing or display incorrect Display segments missing Transmitter locked up, all display segments lit Transmitter locks up Transmitter periodically restarts itself Transmitter periodically restarts itself. Id000 in display A security code has been programmed into the transmitter. The correct code must be entered before the transmitter can be programmed or calibrated.
Diagnostics and troubleshooting Check the stability limits. If the stabilization range (prompt PH) is set too narrow or the stabilization time (prompt tIME) is set too long, the transmitter will not accept buffer readings. A good choice for PH is 0.02, and a good choice for tIME is 10 - 20 seconds.
Diagnostics and troubleshooting Buffer calibration is acceptable; process pH is slightly different from expected value Differences between pH readings made with an on-line instrument and a laboratory or portable instrument are normal. The on-line instrument is subject to process variables, for example, ground potentials, stray voltages, and orientation effects, that do not affect the laboratory or portable instrument.
Diagnostics and troubleshooting c. Connect a jumper wire between TB-3 (RTD RTN) and TB-4 (RTD-SNS). Connect a second jumper wire between TB-7 (REF IN) and TB-8 (SOL GND). d. Place the sensor back in the process liquid. If diagnostic measures such as GLASSFAIL or REF WArn appear, turn off the sensor diagnostics.
Diagnostics and troubleshooting c. For HART communications, the power supply voltage must be at least 18 Vdc. Be sure the HART communicator is properly connected. a. The communicator leads must be connected across the load. b. The communicator can be connected across the power terminals (TB-15 and TB-16).
Diagnostics and troubleshooting b. Try connecting the transmitter to a different power supply. 8.1.6 Displaying diagnostic variables Purpose This section describes how to display the diagnostic variables listed below: Diagnostic measurements Sensor voltage in mv (InPut) Glass impedance in megohms (GIMP) Reference temperature in kilohms (rIMP) Temperature in °C Diagnostic messages...

Diagnostics and troubleshooting If the transmitter is simulating an ouput current when the fault occurs, the transmitter continues to generate the simulated current. To alert you that a fault exists, the word FAULT appears in the main display, and the display flashes. 8.2.8 Troubleshooting contacting and toroidal conductivity analyzers when a fault or warning message is showing...
Diagnostics and troubleshooting SEnSor FAIL may appear for a while when the sensor is first placed in service. Procedure Observe the sensor current (go to SEnSor Cur under the Diagnostic menu). If the sensor is moving in the positive direction, there is probably nothing wrong, and the error message should soon disappear.
Diagnostics and troubleshooting Measure the resistance between the RTD IN and RETURN leads. For a thermistor, measure the resistance between the two leads. If the temperature is open or shorted, replace the sensor. In the meantime, use manual temperature compensation. SenSE OPEn Most Rosemount sensors use a Pt100 or Pt1000 in a three-wire configuration.
Diagnostics and troubleshooting FAct FAIL procedure FACt FAIL appears if the transmitter factory calibration message has been triggered. A stray noise spike can cause this message to appear. If the pH reading seems acceptable, reset the calibration flag. Enter the factory calibration menu by pressing 2 on the IRC ten times. The display does not change.
Diagnostics and troubleshooting CPU FAIL and ROM FAIL CPU FAIL means that the processing unit has failed internal tests. ROM FAIL means that the internal memory has failed. Cycle the power. Leave the transmitter off for at least 30 seconds before returning power to it.

Diagnostics and troubleshooting See the sensor instruction sheet for details. Replace the sensor. 0 too bIG Normally, the transmitter will not accept a zero current until the current has fallen below a reasonable value. See the calibration section for the analyte being determined for zero currents.
Diagnostics and troubleshooting Replace the sensor. SLOPE HI or SLOPE LO Once the two-point (manual or automatic) pH calibration is complete, the transmitter automatically calculates the sensor slope at 25 °C. If the slope is greather than 62 mV/pH, the transmitter displays the SLOPE HI error. If the slope is less than 45 mV/pH, the transmitter displays the SLOPE LO error.
Diagnostics and troubleshooting A large standardization offset may be caused by a poisoned reference electrode. Poisoning agents can cause the pH to be offset by as much as two pH units. To check the reference voltage, see Section 8.4.13. AdC means the analog to digital converter has failed. Verify that the sensor wiring is correct and connections are tight.
Diagnostics and troubleshooting 8.4.3 Temperature measurement and calibration problems Temperature different from transmitter Is the standard thermometer, RTD, or thermistor accurate? General purpose liquid- in glass thermometers, particularly ones that have been mistreated, can have suprisingly large errors. Is the temperature element in the sensor completely submerged in the liquid? Is the standard temperature sensor submerged to the correct level? 8.4.4 Oxygen measurement and calibration problems...
Diagnostics and troubleshooting Is the zero solution fresh and properly made? Zero the sensor in a solution of 5% sodium sulfite in water. Prepare the solution immediately before use. It has a shelf life of only a few days. If the sensor is being zeroed with nitrogen gas, verify that the nitrogen is oxygen- free and the flow is adequate to prevent back-diffusion of air into the chamber.
Diagnostics and troubleshooting Is the membrane dry? The membrane must be dry during air calibration. A droplet of water on the membrane during air calibration will lower the sensor current and cause an inaccurate calibration. If the sensor current in air is very low and the sensor is new, either the electrolyte flow has stopped or the membrane is torn or loose.
Diagnostics and troubleshooting Readings drift. Is the membrane clean? For the sensor to work properly, oxygen must diffuse freely through the membrane. A coating on the membrane will interfere with the passage of oxygen, resulting in a slow response. Is the sensor in direct sunlight? If the sensor is in direct sunlight during air calibration, readings will drift as the sensor warms up.
Diagnostics and troubleshooting 8.4.5 Free chlorine measurement and calibration problems Problem See Section Zero current is substantially outside the range -10 to 10 nA. Zero current outside range Zero reading is unstable. Chlorine zero reading unstable Sensor current during calibration is substantially less than Sensor current too low about 350 nA/ppm at 25 °C (77 °F) and pH 7.
Diagnostics and troubleshooting If shaking does not work, try clearing the holes around the cathode stem. Hold the sensor with the membrane end pointing up. Unscrew the membrane retainer and remove the membrane assembly. Be sure the wood ring remains with the membrane assembly.
Diagnostics and troubleshooting Chlorine readings drift Is the sample temperature changing? Membrane permeability is a function of temperature. The time constant for the 499ACL-01 sensor is about five minutes. Therefore, the reading may drift for a while after a sudden temperature change. Is the membrane clean? For the sensor to work properly, chlorine must diffuse freely through the membrane.
Diagnostics and troubleshooting Chlorine readings too low Was the sample tested as soon as it was taken? Chlorine solutions are unstable. Test the sample immediately after collecting it. Avoid exposing the sample to sunlight. Low readings can be caused by zeroing the sensor before the residual current has reached a stable minimum value.
Diagnostics and troubleshooting Has adequate time been allowed for the sensor to reach a minimum stable residual current? It may take several hours, sometimes as long as overnight, for a new sensor to stabilize. Check the membrane for damage and replace it if neccessary. Ozone zero reading unstable Is the sensor properly wired to the transmitter? Verify that all wiring connections are tight.
Diagnostics and troubleshooting Ozone process readings erratic If the ozone process readings are erratic, see the information below. Readings are often erratic when a new sensor or a rebuilt sensor is first placed in service. The current usually stabilizes after a few hours. Is the sample flow within the recommended range? High sample flow may cause erratic readings.
Diagnostics and troubleshooting Low readings can be caused by zeroing the sensor before the residual current has reached a stable minimum value. Residual current is the current the sensor generates even when no ozone is in the sample. Because the residual current is subtracted from subsequent measured currents, zeroing before the current is a minimum can lead to low results.
Diagnostics and troubleshooting Sensor not responding to pH changes Did the expected pH change really occur? If the process pH reading was not what was expected, check the performance of the sensors in buffers. Also, use a second pH meter to verify the change. Is the sensor properly wired to the transmitter? Is the glass bulb cracked or broken? Check the glass electrode impedance.
Diagnostics and troubleshooting a. The measurement system needs one path to ground: through the process liquid and piping. Plastic piping, fiber-glass tanks, and ungrounded or poorly grounded vessels do not provide a path. A floating system can pick up stray voltages from other electrical equipment.
Diagnostics and troubleshooting Is the sensor properly wired to the transmitter? Is a ground loop present? Refer to Process pH grossly wrong or noisy 8.4.9 Simulating input currents - dissolved oxygen To check the performance of the transmitter, use a decade box to simulate the current from the oxygen sensor.
Diagnostics and troubleshooting Change the decade box resistance and verify that the correct current is shown. Calculate the current from the equation: 8.4.10 Simulating input currents - chlorine and ozone To check the performance of the transmitter, use a decade box and a battery to simulate the current from the sensor.
Diagnostics and troubleshooting c. Press ENTER. The display shows the sensor current. d. Note the units µA is microamps; na is nanoamps. Change the decade box resistance and verify that the correct current is shown. Calculate the current from the equation: The voltage of a fresh 1.5 volt battery is about 1.6 volt (1600 mV).

Diagnostics and troubleshooting The second line of the display shows the pH. The pH should be approximately 7.00. Because calibration data stored in the analyzer may be offsetting the input voltage, the displayed pH may not be exactly 7.00 If a standard millivolt source is available, disconnect the jumper wire between the pH IN and REF IN terminals and connect the voltage source as shown in Figure 8-13.
Diagnostics and troubleshooting Voltage (mV) pH (at 25 °) 295.8 2.00 177.5 4.00 59.2 6.00 59.2 8.00 177.5 10.00 295.8 12.00 Preamplifier in a junction box The procedure is the same as described in Preamplifier in transmitter. Keep the connection between the analyzer and the junction box in place.
Diagnostics and troubleshooting Figure 8-14: Three-wire RTD configuration Although only two wires are required to connect the RTD to the analyzer, using a third wire allows the analyzer to correct for the resistance of the lead wires and for changes in the lead wire resistance with temperature.
Diagnostics and troubleshooting For example, start with a simulated resistance of 103.9 Ω, which corresponds to 10.0 °C (50 °F). Assume that the offset from the sensor calibration was -0.3 Ω. Because of the offset, the analyzer calculates temperature using 103.6 Ω. The result is 9.2 °C. Now change the resistance to 107.8 Ω, which corresponds to 20.0 °C (68 °F).
