DULCOTEST sensors for fluoride

Graduated measuring ranges 0.05 – 100 mg/l

Accurate measurement of fluoride with DULCOTEST sensors in the monitoring of potable water and waste water, suitable for pH values up to 9.5.

Product description

Reliable online measurement of fluoride – with DULCOTEST sensors

In some countries fluoride is monitored when added to potable water, but also generally during the treatment of industrial waste water, e.g. in the semiconductor industry and electroplating.

Our product line of DULCOTEST fluoride sensors provides two types of sensor, optimised for these applications.

The sensor consists of a fluoride transducer, the connectable transducer of a reference electrode and a separate temperature measuring unit. The sensor is based on the potentiometric measuring principle with the help of an ion-selective electrode (ISE) and a reference electrode.

The measuring point is available fully mounted on our measuring and control system DULCOTROL with the sensor fitting and controller DULCOMETER diaLog DACb.

Features and Benefits

  • Precise, real-time potentiometric measurement for efficient process control (short response time)
  • Can be used up to a pH of 9.5
  • Selective LaF3 crystal eliminates interference caused by cross-sensitivities
  • Rapid external temperature compensation eliminates interference caused by influence of temperature
  • Potentiometric principle eliminates interference caused by flow changes
  • Potentiometric measuring principle enables quick commissioning

Field of application

The following list is a general representation of basically suitable applications for this product. Please contact your personal representative to discuss the use of the product in your individual application.

  • Monitoring of fluoride in potable water. In some countries it is standard practice to add fluoride to drinking water to prevent tooth decay.
  • Monitoring discharger limit values in industrial waste water, e.g. in the semiconductor industry and electroplating

    Resistance to

    Disinfectant, solids content (turbid types of water)

    Measuring principle, technology

    Direct potentiometric measurement, 2 electrodes, gel electrolyte, ceramic diaphragm, separate temperature measurement needed for temperature compensation. Low pH values of < 5 reduce the concentration of free fluoride ions by forming undissociated hydrofluoric acid (HF). High pH values > 9.5 influence the signal and the slope at concentrations in the lower ppm range. The calibration line flattens off there (gentler slope) and the fluoride sensor is outside its linear range.
