Teledyne S02312 SP3X FC Free Chlorine Sensor, Low Range 0.5-20ppm

Description

Overview

The Teledyne S02312 is a genuine SP3X FC free chlorine sensor built on Teledyne Analytical Instruments’ SP3X Smart Sensor platform, configured for low-range measurement from 0.5 to 20ppm with a PVC sensor body, flanged mounting configuration, and a 4ft integral cable terminating at the transmitter connection. The SP3 and SP3X Smart Sensor family covers a wide range of liquid measurement parameters, including pH, ORP, conductivity, dissolved oxygen, and free and total chlorine, using an interchangeable amperometric sensing electrode design that shares a common mechanical and electrical platform across the product line.

As the official authorized partner and exclusive regional representative for Teledyne (Detcon) in the Sultanate of Oman and the wider GCC, Seven Star LLC supplies the Teledyne S02312 free chlorine sensor to municipal water treatment plants, desalination facilities, and industrial process water systems across Muscat, Sohar, and Salalah, supporting continuous disinfection monitoring programs that protect public health and process water quality throughout the region.

Operating Principle

The Teledyne S02312 measures free chlorine concentration using an amperometric, membrane-covered polarographic sensing method. A polarizing voltage is applied across the sensor’s working and counter electrodes, and free chlorine diffusing through the selective membrane generates a current proportional to its concentration in the sample water. Because the measurement is diffusion-limited by the membrane rather than dependent on sample flow turbulence, the SP3X platform delivers stable, repeatable readings across the 0.5–20ppm low measurement range specified for this sensor variant.

The sensor communicates digitally with compatible SP3X-ready transmitters such as the Teledyne LXT-380, which automatically recognizes the connected sensor type and configures its menus and calibration routines accordingly, reducing setup time and the potential for configuration errors. This digital smart-sensor architecture also supports on-sensor storage of calibration history and electrode life data, giving operators visibility into remaining sensor service life without needing to reference separate paper logs.

Engineering Design of the Teledyne S02312

The Teledyne S02312 is constructed with a chemically resistant PVC body suited to continuous immersion in chlorinated water and wastewater streams, with a flanged mounting configuration that allows secure installation into flow cells, sample chambers, or in-line tees without additional adapter hardware. The 4ft integral cable provides a sealed, factory-terminated connection between the sensor and its transmitter, eliminating field-wiring splices that can introduce moisture ingress or signal noise over time.

Routine maintenance follows the SP3X platform’s standard membrane and electrolyte replacement procedure: the sensor is removed from its mounting, the membrane cap is unscrewed, the electrode surface is inspected and cleaned, fresh electrolyte and a new membrane cap are installed, and the sensor is recalibrated against a known chlorine standard before being returned to service. This modular maintenance approach keeps ongoing operating costs low compared to sensors requiring full electrode replacement at each service interval.

Key Features

The Teledyne S02312 free chlorine sensor is engineered to deliver dependable low-range chlorine monitoring for water treatment applications:

  • Amperometric polarographic sensing provides stable, membrane-limited free chlorine measurement from 0.5 to 20ppm.
  • Chemically resistant PVC body withstands continuous immersion in chlorinated water and wastewater streams.
  • Flanged mounting configuration simplifies installation into flow cells and sample chambers without adapters.
  • 4ft integral cable with factory-sealed termination eliminates field-wiring splices and moisture ingress points.
  • SP3X Smart Sensor digital communication enables automatic transmitter configuration and reduced setup time.
  • On-sensor calibration history storage improves maintenance planning and traceability for compliance reporting.
  • Modular membrane and electrolyte replacement keeps ongoing maintenance costs lower than full-electrode designs.
  • Backed by Seven Star LLC’s regional stock and technical support for water treatment plant maintenance teams.

Industrial Applications

The Teledyne S02312 free chlorine sensor serves municipal and industrial water treatment facilities that require continuous, low-range chlorine residual monitoring for disinfection control and regulatory compliance. Typical applications include potable water treatment plant clearwell and distribution monitoring, seawater and brackish water desalination plant post-treatment disinfection verification, and cooling water and process water systems where chlorine dosing must be tightly controlled to balance disinfection efficacy against corrosion and discharge limits.

As the officially authorized partner for Teledyne (Detcon) in Oman and the GCC, Seven Star LLC distributes this sensor to municipal utilities, desalination plant operators, and industrial water treatment contractors across the Sultanate of Oman, Muscat, and the Sohar and Salalah economic zones. Regional stock holding allows water treatment plant operators to maintain continuous disinfection monitoring coverage without extended waits for factory-shipped replacement sensors from overseas.
