pH Measurement in API Separators
Refinery Wastewater Treatment
Reduce pH Sensor Cleaning & Maximize pH Sensor Life
pH is measured at the discharge of the API separator in refineries to enhance efficiency of secondary waste treatment processes, such as flocculation. During this process, the pH sensor often becomes coated due to emulsified oil, resulting in frequent cleanings and a short sensor life. The Rosemount™ 396P pH Sensor is designed with a coating-resistant reference junction to reduce cleaning and provide maximum sensor life in API separators.

Product Solutions
The Rosemount 396P pH Sensor/ORP Sensor, with integral cable, is specifically designed for improved life in harsh, dirty, and abrasive applications such as lime slurry waste treatment, paper machine headbox and pigment/dye applications, where large quantities of suspended solids are present. The pH/ORP sensor features a coating resistant TUpH large area reference junction and a rugged polypropylene body construction for maximum chemical resistance.
- Minimum pH/ORP sensor maintenance due to TUpH reference technology which ensures steady pH signal when sensor is coated
- Maximum pH/ORP sensor life due to helical reference pathway which hinders reference poisoning and cracking resistant glass
- SMART enabled for pH measurements

The Rosemount 5081 Explosion-Proof Transmitter is a single channel loop powered device that can accept input from a variety of liquid analysis sensors including: pH/ORP sensors, conductivity sensors (contacting and toroidal) and amperometric sensors (dissolved oxygen, chlorine and ozone). The transmitter features a rugged, weatherproof, corrosion-resistant enclosure to withstand harsh environments.
- Robust explosion-proof design constructed with heavy duty cast aluminum
- Faster installation using Quick Start programming
- Intrinsically safe, non-incendive, and explosion-proof hazardous area location approvals
Measurement Range
Varies by sensor type. See Product Data Sheet for details.
Operating Temperature
-4 - 149 °F (-20 - 65 °C)
Power Supply
Minimum power supply voltage is 12 Vdc. Maximum power supply voltage is 42.4 Vdc (30 Vdc for intrinsically safe operation). Power supply voltage should cover the voltage drop on the cable plus the external load resistor required for HART® communications (250 Ω minimum).
