1.2 Users' qualifications

WARNING!
Danger of injury with inadequately qualified personnel!
The operator of the plant / device is responsible for ensuring that the qualifications
are fulfilled.
If inadequately qualified personnel work on the unit or loiter in the hazard zone of the
unit, this could result in dangers that could cause serious injuries and material
damage.
– All work on the unit should therefore only be conducted by qualified personnel.
– Unqualified personnel should be kept away from the hazard zone

covered, amperometric two-electrode
sensor. Use the DULCOTEST® CGE to
measure the concentration of total avail‐
able chlorine in swimming pool water or
water of a similar quality.
The chlorine compounds dissolved in the
water pass through the sensor membrane
and are electrochemically transformed on
the working electrode. The primary current
signal resulting from the transformation
can be evaluated to determine the con‐
centration (of chlorine).
The integral sensor signal transformer
converts the primary sensor current into
an output signal of 4 ... 20 mA.
Typical applications:
n Measurement of total available
chlorine in swimming pool water
– from stabilised chlorine (chloro
(iso) cyanuric acid derivatives),
also in combination with free
chlorine from electrolysis pro‐
cesses, with and without dia‐
phragm between the anode and
the cathode.

2.1 Measured variable

The sensor measures the concentration of
total available chlorine in swimming pool
water. This is understood as being the
total chlorine, bound to organic carrier
molecules (e.g. cyanuric acid) and the
resulting free chlorine released (HOCl and
OCl- ). The sensor measures independ‐
ently of the content of combined chlorine
(chloramines)

4. Clamp disc 8. Protective membrane cap
Sensor type CGE3 consists of 2 main parts, the electrode shaft and the membrane cap.
The electrolyte-filled membrane cap constitutes the measuring chamber. Measuring elec‐
trodes are immersed in the measuring chamber. The measuring chamber is sealed from
the measuring medium by a micro-porous membrane. The sensor has integral tempera‐
ture compensation. The amplifier electronics are located in the upper part of the elec‐
trode shaft. The amplifier electronics are cast into a plastic mass. The amplifier elec‐
tronics transform the primary sensor current into an output signal of 4 ... 20 mA.

WARNING!
Danger from hazardous substances!
Possible consequence: Fatal or very
serious injuries.
Please ensure when handling haz‐
ardous substances that you have
read the latest safety data sheets pro‐
vided by the manufacture of the haz‐
ardous substance. The actions
required are described in the safety
data sheet. Check the safety data
sheet regularly and replace, if neces‐
sary, as the hazard potential of a sub‐
stance can be re-evaluated at any
time based on new findings.
The system operator is responsible
for ensuring that these safety data
sheets are available and that they are
kept up to date, as well as for pro‐
ducing an associated hazard assess‐
ment for the workstations affected.

Do not touch the membrane cap

and electrodes at the bottom of the

Do not touch or damage the mem‐
brane at the bottom of the membrane
cap and the electrodes at the bottom
of the electrode shaft or bring them
into contact with greasy substances.
Otherwise the sensor will no longer
work accurately. Replace the mem‐
brane cap with a new membrane cap

CAUTION!
Incorrect metering due to sensor failure

– This may result in uncontrolled metering
– The operator should therefore ensure that no subsequent damage results from

 Putting the Sensor into Operation

CAUTION!
Incorrect metering due to premature ageing of the sensor
Possible consequence: Slight or minor injuries. Material damage.
Measure: Do not electrically disconnect the sensor during measuring breaks.
Exception: If there is a break between measurements lasting more than a week and
the proportion of disinfectant in the sample water falls during this period to 0 ppm
then electrically disconnect the sensor.
– An extra run-in period will be necessary following operation without disinfectant.
Switch on feeder assembly with a time delay if necessary.

Run-in period
The sensor requires a specific run-in period to display a steady display value.
Initial commissioning: 1 - 24 h (typically 6 h)*
Recommissioning: 1 - 24 h (typically 3 h)*
Electrolyte or membrane change: 3h
* the exact run-in time depends on the application.

6.1 Calibration

CAUTION!
– Perform a slope calibration every
time if the sensor has been tam‐
pered with (e.g. electrolyte
replacement etc.)!
– Repeat slope calibration at reg‐
ular intervals to ensure the per‐
fect operation of the sensor! If
there are no other regulations,
