Reliable online measurement of peracetic acid with DULCOTEST sensors.
DULCOTEST sensors of types PAA 1 and PAA 2-3E are diaphragm-covered amperometric sensors for the selective measurement of peracetic acid. You have the option of two sensor types for applications with different requirements:
Type PAA 1 with extra thick, pore-free diaphragm for average and higher concentrations of peracetic acid for applications in the food and beverage industry.
Type PAA 2-3E for low concentrations of peracetic acid for monitoring peracetic acid limit values in clarification plant processes or for applications in the pharmaceutical industry and medical technology, for example.
Features and Benefits
- Precise amperometric measurement in real time for efficient process control
- Amperometric measuring eliminates interference caused by turbidity or discolouration
- No cross-sensitivity towards hydrogen peroxide
- Use of sensors if dissolved matter, surfactants and film-forming media are present without damage to diaphragm
- Use of sensors under process conditions with CIP (cleaning in place) and rinsers (bottling)
- Stable zero point means no drift

Peracetic Acid Sensor PAA 1-mA
Sensor for the measurement of peracetic acid without cross-sensitivity to hydrogen peroxide. For disinfecting contaminated water from washing foodstuffs and from cleaning procedures (e.g. CIP).
Your Benefits

Peracetic acid sensor PAA 2-3E-mA
Sensor for measuring even low concentrations of peracetic acid without cross-sensitivity to hydrogen peroxide even in waste water (pre-cleaned)
Your Benefits
- Measured variable: peracetic acid, without cross-sensitivity to the accompanying chemical, hydrogen peroxide
- Low dependence on flow, reduced faults caused by substances in the water and films of dirt, thanks to a membrane protecting the measuring electrodes
- Sensitive measuring range from 0..02 mg/l provided by potentiometric system containing 3 electrodes
- Measured values for monitoring or fast control due to short sensor response time < 30 s
- An integrated transmitter and the signal cable’s plug-in connector make for an easy installation
