Overview

The CSIM11-ORP, manufactured by Wedgewood Analytical, measures oxidation reduction potential (ORP) of liquids. It can be submerged in water or inserted into tanks, pipelines, and open channels. The CSIM11-ORP is intended for non-pressurized  systems and was not designed for applications above 30 psi. Please contact Campbell Scientific for recommendations on probes suitable for installations in pressurized pipes.

Benefits and Features

  • Internal amplifier boosts the signal, decreasing signal interference
  • Titanium ground rod runs inside the outer body to eliminate ground loop errors
  • Compatible with most Campbell Scientific data loggers
  • Porous polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) liquid junction is less susceptible to clogging as compared to conventional reference junctions
  • Plunger-style pH glass electrode allowing the probe to be mounted at any angle

Technical Description

The CSIM11-ORP is similar to the CSIM11, but includes a 0.2-in. platinum band wrapped around the glass electrode, which allows the CSIM11-ORP to respond to the electron density in the fluid. It has a plunger-style pH glass electrode that allows the CSIM11-ORP to be mounted at any angle. The probe's porous polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) liquid junction is less susceptible to clogging as compared to conventional reference junctions.

A titanium ground rod runs inside the PPS outer body to eliminate ground loop errors. An internal amplifier boosts the signal, decreasing signal interference. The amplifier is powered by two internal lithium batteries, and thus does not require any current from the datalogger. These batteries are designed to last the lifetime of the probe.

The reference solutions and bulb configuration are optimized for natural water applications. Alternate reference solutions and bulb configurations are available. Contact Campbell Scientific for pricing and availability.

Note: The CSIM11-ORP uses glass bulb technology which has a life expectancy of around 6 months to 2 years, depending on the conditions of the water.

Number of FAQs related to CSIM11-ORP-L: 2

  1. Most Campbell Scientific sensors are available as an –L, which indicates a user-specified cable length. If a sensor is listed as an –LX model (where “X” is some other character), that sensor’s cable has a user-specified length, but it terminates with a specific connector for a unique system:

    • An –LC model has a user-specified cable length for connection to an ET107, CS110, or retired Metdata1.
    • An –LQ model has a user-specified cable length for connection to a RAWS-P weather station.

    If a sensor does not have an –L or other –LX designation after the main model number, the sensor has a set cable length. The cable length is listed at the end of the Description field on the product’s Ordering tab. For example, the 034B-ET model has a description of “Met One Wind Set for ET Station, 67 inch Cable.” Products with a set cable length terminate, as a default, with pigtails.

    If a cable terminates with a special connector for a unique system, the end of the model number designates which system. For example, the 034B-ET model designates the sensor as a 034B for an ET107 system.

    • –ET models terminate with the connector for an ET107 weather station.
    • –ETM models terminate with the connector for an ET107 weather station, but they also include a special system mounting, which is often convenient when purchasing a replacement part.
    • –QD models terminate with the connector for a RAWS-F Quick Deployment Station.
    • –PW models terminate with the connector for a PWENC or pre-wired system.
  2. Many Campbell Scientific sensors are available with different cable termination options. These options include the following:

    • The –PT (–PT w/Tinned Wires) option is the default option and does not display on the product line as the other options do. The cable terminates in pigtails that connect directly to a datalogger.
    • In the –C (–C w/ET/CS110 Connector) option, the cable terminates in a connector that attaches to a CS110 Electric Field Meter or an ET-series weather station.
    • In the –CWS (–CWS w/CWS900 Connector) option, the cable terminates in a connector that attaches to a CWS900-series interface. Connection to a CWS900-series interface allows the sensor to be used in a wireless sensor network.
    • In the –PW (–PW w/Pre-Wire Connector) option, the cable terminates in a connector that attaches to a prewired enclosure.
    • In the –RQ (–RQ w/RAWS Connector) option, the cable terminates in a connector that attaches to a RAWS-P Permanent Remote Automated Weather Station.

    Note: The availability of cable termination options varies by sensor. For example, sensors may have none, two, or several options to choose from. If a desired option is not listed for a specific sensor, contact an application engineer at Campbell Scientific for assistance.
