AZTEC 600 FLUORIDE ANALYSERS

The ApplicationDifferent types of chemicals may be used in fluoridation processes, the most common being disodium hexafluorosilicate (Na2SiF6) and hexafluorosilicic acid (H2SiF6), both of which pose a risk to human health and wildlife if not properly handled.

The diagram shows a typical water fluoridation treatment plant arrangement. In this example, hexafluorosilicic acid is held in a bulk storage tank (1) within a bunded area (2). Prior to use, the acid is passed through an automatic dilution plant (3) to reduce its concentration and help simplify control of dosing.

From here, the diluted acid is passed to a separate tank, which holds around a day’s supply of acid. As a safeguard against overdosing caused by potential plant failure, this tank is only topped up once in any 24 hour period.

The dilute solution is pumped into the potable water supply by a fluoride injection pump (5) on the outlet line from the tank.

The sample to the fluoride monitor (6) is taken after the main supply pumps to ensure adequate mixing and to enable a representative sample to be taken. The pump speed is determined by the plant flow throughput and the pump stoke is controlled by the output from the monitor.

ChallengeAccurate dosing of the chemicals used to fluoridate the water can be further complicated by underlying levels of natural fluoride in certain areas. In these areas, the dosing of chemicals to the water supply will need to be adjusted to take account of the existing background natural levels.

To help maximise accuracy, the sampling point for any online monitoring instrument should be situated in a location where the sample is likely to have been sufficiently mixed.

Any sample must also be taken before the water is drawn off to the distribution network.

Given the potentially hazardous nature of the chemicals used in fluoridation, and the potential consequences of over-fluoridation, water operators may also be required to demonstrate that they have been dosing within the required limits.

The solutionABB’s Aztec 600 Fluoride analysers provide accurate online monitoring of fluoride dosing in potable water applications.

Incorporating a range of features, including high and low level alarms, the Aztec 600 Fluoride offers reliable, and accurate,

on-line analysis of fluoride concentrations, allowing immediate process decisions to be made to help preserve the safety of the treatment process.

By utilising the same common platform as the Aztec colorimetric range, the Aztec 600 Fluoride is able to store data on the fluoride dosing process. This data can be retrieved in a number of ways. A built-in Ethernet communications link with onboard web and ftp servers enables remote monitoring, configuration selection, data and log file access to the analyser from a web browser, whilst the option of Profibus DP allows access over a fieldbus network.

A typical water fluoridation treatment plant arrangement.

Achieving safe fluoridation through online monitoring

How it worksA sample is first drawn from the sample chamber by the sample pump. In some drinking waters, there may be a residual of iron or aluminium from the chemical coagulants that have been added during the water treatment process.

These metal ions can form a complex with the fluoride which can complicate the analysis.

To ensure an accurate measurement, the sample is therefore pre-treated with a chemical buffer reagent before it is analysed, which adjusts the ionic strength and buffers the sample pH. The reagent also contains a chelating agent which breaks up metal-fluoride complexes. This reagent is pumped into the sample line and is mixed with the sample.

The conditioned sample is next passed through a temperature block to raise the temperature and provide further mixing before being presented to the fluoride electrode.

The electrode output is converted by the microprocessor to indicate the direct fluoride concentration in ppm, mg/l, ppb, g/l or in graphical format. Finally, the sample flows to waste.

To help operators to verify analyser performance, the Aztec 600 Fluoride monitor features automatic two point calibration with separate high and low standard solutions. Calibration

frequency can be programmed to occur either weekly or up to four times per day.

Key features and benefitsThe Aztec 600 Fluoride offers a range of features and benefits, providing users with a powerful, accurate and reliable tool for efficient monitoring and control of fluoride dosing in potable water treatment applications:

• Improved process control Enables operational decisions to be made in near real-time.

• Enhanced process safety The Aztec 600 Fluoride’s built-in alarms help prevent incorrect dosing of fluoride which could otherwise harm human health. If the upper limit is exceeded, the monitor will automatically signal for the fluoridation process to be shut down.

• Improved process reliability Detect process failures before they affect the quality of the water leaving the plant.

• Process optimization for water quality Increased plant efficiency.

• Potential capital and operating cost reductions Reduced chemical and energy usage.

• Continual monitoring of remote or un-staffed sites Improved response times and reduced visits saving money and time whilst lowering carbon footprint.

• Improved reporting Analyser audit trail data can be used to assure customers and regulators of process efficiency and consistent product quality

The KSONIK MICRO LP Ultrasonic Level Transmitter is designed to measure liquid (16 ft./5 m) levels. The range can be configured by the keyboard and display.

The KMICRO LP is mounted on top of the vessel or tank. The microprocessor in the KMICRO LP fires an electronic pulse that the transducer converts into an acoustic pulse.

The pulse travels to the level that is being measured and is reflected back to the transducer. The transducer then converts the energy back into an electronic signal and stops the counter in the microprocessor, which then knowing the speed of sound through the air, can accurately determine the distance.

The powerful software removes false echoes and the electronic filter removes ambient noise.

Using a motor with the highest efficiency class together with speed control is a good start when it comes to minimizing your energy bill.

However the IE class only indicates motor efficiency with a sinusoidal supply at nominal speed and power.

This information is not relevant when calculating energy consumption in variable speed applications. Accurate calculations demand efficiency data for the whole motor-drive package and for the entire speed range.

Now – for the first time in the industry – ABB offers you the means to calculate actual energy consumption with a measured efficiency curve for the motor and drive package. Log the operating profile and energy consumption of your present system and calculate the energy consumption with the new IE4 SynRM package.

This time your calculations will be based on facts, not assumptions.

IE4 SynRM Motor highlights• Motors meet IE4 efficiency levels according to

IEC 60034-30-1 Ed 1.0

• Unprecedented reliability through very low winding and bearing temperatures

• Can replace standard induction motors – same power, size combinations

• Variant codes and mechanical construction based on the proven M3BP cast iron process performance motors – conventional yet innovative. Same parts, easy to source and change.

• No magnets, no cage – you cannot break what isn’t there

• Service procedures comparable to induction motors – easy to maintain

Ultra-high efficiency motor to cut the cost of runningThe new rotor has neither magnets nor windings, and thus suffers virtually no power losses. ABB has converted this advantage into ultra-high efficiency.

As a result, you get the IE4 super premium efficiency level, which means very low energy consumption especially with in partial load variable speed operation.

Superior reliability to minimise the cost of downtimeIE4 synchronous reluctance motors have very low winding temperatures, which increases the reliability and lifetime of the winding. More importantly, the cool synchronous reluctance rotor means significantly lower bearing temperatures – an important factor because bearing failures cause about 70 percent of unplanned motor outages.

Even if the bearings eventually need replacing, there are no magnetic forces involved – unlike in a permanent magnet motor – so the bearing change is as fast and easy as with an induction motor.

MULTISMART PUMP STATION MANAGERIntegrated pump controller, motor protection relay and DNP3 RTU

MultiSmart Pump Station Manager is the next generation of technology for water and wastewater pump stations – combining the best of PLCs, RTUs and pump controllers into a comprehensive and intuitive package.

The Pump Station Manager integrates numerous control panel components, lowering control panel cost. It also includes pre-programmed logic specifically designed to significantly reduce operating costs.

MultiSmart Features• Advanced pump control functionality for up to

six pumps each with moisture, thermal, current and power monitoring and alarming

• Max run time for a pump (switch to next pump and raise an alarm)

• Run the most efficient pump (instead of fixed alternation)

• Clean the well out by removing floatables on a regular basis

• Multiple set-point profiles allow remote switching or on date/time for a variety of specific operations such as spill management or influx and infiltration reduction

• Generator profile changes set points and limits max pumps to run when operating off a generator

• Locked level raises an alarm when the level has not changed enough in a given time period (suspect level device)

• Optional VFD module to control one or more pumps

• VFD settings accessed via one screen

• Supports a security key (based on the ‘Dallas Key’)

• Mixer control agitates mixture in well

MULTITRODE PROBES AND RELAYSSimple, reliable level devices

MultiTrode’s Probe is the most reliable and cost-effective level sensor available in the water and wastewater industry today.

• 10+ year lifetime

• Cost effective and virtually maintenance free

• Very low and reliable pump cut-out

• Unaffected by build up (fat, grease, sludge and foam)

• Reduces maintenance cost

• Intrinsically safe when installed with MTISB barrier

• Eliminates false readings

• Simple to install and maintain

• Cuts the risk of spills

• UL, ULC, CTick, and CE Approved

Why is it so Reliable?There are no electronics and no moving parts - which results in a long lifetime. That’s why it gets a 10-year warranty!

Why is it easier to install than other level devices?All you do is hang the Probe on its own cable into your wet well, using the bracket we supply. Installation is simple - any one of your technicians could do it in an hour or so.

What’s more, you install the Probe relatively low down in the wet well, so compared to ball floats it allows the well to be cleaned out more thoroughly. That means less debris build-up, odours and pump clogs.

How does it work?The Probe works by using the conductive properties of the water itself to complete a circuit with a controller. It’s mounted near the inflow,

allowing the turbulence to keep it clean. Even if a build-up does occur it’s usually conductive (in wastewater) and so the Probe keeps right on working.

If cleaning is required the Probe is simply pulled through a squeegee that is part of the mounting bracket.
