Description
The APFCL Chlorine Analyzer is a pre-configured, fully assembled, turn-key water analyzer capable of measuring free chlorine (or total chlorine), pH, and temperature. The analyzer displays real-time measurements on an easy-to-read LCD display. It includes data-logging, 4-20ma output, RS-485 Modbus RTU output signal, and output contact relay.
The APFCL connects easily to your water source and comes mounted on an easy-to-mount wall panel. The unique bare-gold electrode technology and sensor reservoir allow for maximum resolution and consistency with minimal maintenance and no need for electrode solutions.
Product Overview / Features of the APFCL Analyzer
- Membrane-free and Reagent-free technology.
- The pre-fabricated design allows for easy installation.
- Strong, lightweight polyethylene panel mount comes with handles.
- FCL700 three-parameter composite sensor for residual free or total chlorine, pH and temperature in compliance with USEPA 334.0 guidelines. Advanced sensor PCB offers built-in temperature and pH parameter compensation (up to pH 9.0) algorithms.
- Unique Bare-Gold electrode technology for residual chlorine measurement eliminates membranes and electrode solution replenishment commonly associated with conventional sensors.
- WR05 Sensor Flow Reservoir provides sample calming for dissipation of air bubbles and settling of suspended solids, foam, or other impurities commonly observed in drinking water influent. Allows the highest level of resolution on the market, and greatly extends the maintenance cycle of the sensor while providing a large buffer capacity to mitigate pressure fluctuations.
- Factory tested under strict quality guidelines.
- 13-month limited warranty. 6-month sensor warranty.

FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
APFCL Introduction
- What is residual chlorine?
Residual chlorine is the amount of chlorine that remains in water after it has been treated with chlorine. Chlorine is added to water to kill harmful bacteria and viruses. Residual chlorine helps to protect water from recontamination as it travels through pipes and distribution systems.
What is pH?pH is a measure of the acidity or alkalinity of a solution. It quantifies the concentration of hydrogen ions (H+) present in the solution, which is an indicator of how acidic or basic (alkaline) the solution is. The pH scale ranges from 0 to 14, with 7 being considered neutral. pH values less than 7 indicate acidity, while values greater than 7 indicate alkalinity.
What is the difference between Free Chlorine & Total Chlorine?Free chlorine refers to the chlorine present in water that has not yet reacted with contaminants or substances in the water. It is the active form of chlorine that is available to disinfect the water by killing harmful microorganisms like bacteria and viruses. Combined chlorine, also known as chloramines, is formed when free chlorine reacts with nitrogen-containing compounds found in water, such as ammonia or organic nitrogen compounds. This reaction leads to the creation of less effective disinfection byproducts. Total chlorine is the sum of free chlorine and combined chlorine.
