550 TOC Total Organic Carbon Analyzer

550 TOC Analyzer

Features
Continuous analysis and rapid display updates Display TOC, resistivity or conductivity (compensated or uncompensated) and temperature simultaneously 4-20 mA analog output, user-selectable for TOC, resistivity/conductivity or temperature RS232 digital output for TOC, resistivity or conductivity (compensated or uncompensated) and temperature Two SPDT relay outputs for high/low setpoint alarms UV lamp run-time indication and expiration alarm User-defined password protection for setup and maintenance menus

Benefits
Wide dynamic operating range of 0.05 Mohm-cm to 18.2 Mohm-cm Real-time continuous monitoring, no time-consuming batch measurements. Obtain real data as it happens and react with alarms when necessary Point-of-use or portable monitoring Low maintenance: no gases or reagents to handle, store or replace. No membranes or moving parts. Easy access to UV lamp with diagnostics and lamp expiration alarm Small, flexible, versatile: use as an on-line monitor or to profile TOC, resistivity and temperature throughout the system

Applications
Pure and Ultrapure water production requires monitoring of organic contamination throughout the treatment process. The 550 provides continuous, fast, and reliable monitoring of TOC levels from post RO waters to point-of-use. With continuous on-line measurements, the 550 ensures TOC excursions will not be missed. Semiconductor manufacturing processes have some of the most stringent specifications for organic contamination in pure and ultrapure water systems. Use the 550 throughout the plant to monitor the integrity of reverse osmosis membranes, the effectiveness of TOC destruct UV lamps, resin bed performance and shedding. The 550-SX model is specifically designed to monitor low concentration levels of organics, typically found after final polish or at point-of-use locations. Recycle and reclaim applications take advantage of the fast analysis time. The 550 TOC analyzer provides continuous monitoring, not batch cycles, with high and low set point alarms for TOC, resistivity or temperature to allow diversion from the fab or other secondary applications if proper water quality is not met. Power generation makeup water treatment from reverse osmosis to demineralizers, the 550 provides fast reliable monitoring of TOC contaminants in the water system. The 550-HT Hi Temp version will monitor organics in fluids at elevated temperatures, to 90 C.

System profiling is easy with the quick set up and portability of the 550. Profile the water system for trouble shooting TOC excursions or to spot check TOC levels after various treatment processes throughout the plant. Continuous online measurements make fast data collection simple and easy.

Principal of Operation
The Thornton 550 TOC Analyzer measures Total Organic Carbon based on differential conductivity (see page 3). The sample water enters the analyzer and passes through a pressure regulator, which controls sample pressure to downstream components. Here the sample splits into two flow paths, where a portion of the flow is directed to the by-pass line where resistivity/conductivity and temperature are measured. These values are represented on the LCD display. The remainder of the sample is directed through a second conductivity sensor, measuring the sample conductivity prior to oxidation. Next, the sample enters the oxidation chamber. As the sample moves through the oxidation chamber it is subjected to high intensity ultraviolet radiation at 185 nanometers, effectively oxidizing the sample. After oxidation, the sample passes through a third conductivity sensor where the conductivity and temperature are measured again to determine the level of Total Organic Carbon (TOC). The measurement and sample flow are continuous; therefore measurement update time is minimized, providing rapid response.
