...3 MECHANICAL INSTALLATION
3.3 Water Supply for Water Wash Systems – Fig. 3.6
Important Note. Installation must only be carried out in
accordance with the local water authority and council
bylaws.
Caution. The maximum water pressure at the electrode
should not exceed 50 psi (4 bar). At NO time should the
sample pressure be allowed to exceed that of the water
wash water supply. Fit a non return valve if this possibility
exists.
Information. As all quick-fit connectors used in Water
Wash systems incorporate cutoff valves, tubes may
subsequently be disconnected on operational equipment
without sample loss or water wash discharge.
Suitable Solenoid Valve (user supplied)
Note. Allow enough tubing to permit handling of the
system in and out of the sample. Alternatively,
disconnect tube at the quick-fit connector.

Fig. 3.6 Installing the Water Wash Water Supply
Note. For optimum performance of the Water Wash
function in flow systems, the sample pressure should be
at least 2 bars lower than that of the water wash water
supply.
The water supply for the water wash system must come from a
suitable supply via a solenoid valve. A general specification for
the solenoid valve is:
Brass body: ....... 2/2, NC
Orifice size: ....... 3.0 / 4.0 mm
Port size: ...........

Pressure: ........... 0 to 6 bar
Coil: ................... 24 V a.c., 110/115 V a.c. or
230/240 V a.c. 50/60 Hz
Note. See Fig. 3.6 for recommended tubing.
