The HF Scientific CLX-XT is a specialized online analyzer designed for the continuous monitoring of Total Residual Oxidants (TRO) and Free or Total Chlorine in demanding water treatment applications. This XT (Extended Temperature) version is engineered for high-performance operation in maritime environments, specifically for Ballast Water Management Systems (BWMS), featuring a “Remote Standby” mode that conserves reagents when the treatment system is inactive. Built within a rugged NEMA 4X enclosure, the unit utilizes proven colorimetric DPD chemistry to deliver laboratory-grade accuracy with low maintenance requirements and an intuitive user interface for field calibration.
Product Q&A
Q1: How does the “Remote Standby” feature benefit maritime users? A1: The Remote Standby allows the monitor to be placed in a non-measuring state via an external signal from the ship’s control system, significantly reducing reagent consumption and pump wear during long voyages when water treatment is not required.
Q2: Does the CLX-XT require frequent recalibration? A2: While the unit is highly stable, it is recommended to perform a monthly calibration check using a primary standard. The system features a simple offset calibration to align its readings with manual grab-sample DPD tests.
Q3: Can this monitor be used in seawater applications? A3: Yes, the CLX-XT is specifically designed for seawater and brackish water monitoring, making it a standard choice for TRO measurement in electrolytic or chemical-injection ballast water treatment processes.
