1Overview
This operating manual has a modular structure, i. e. it contains a
separate operating manual for the individual components of the
multiparameter analyzer (see Fig. 1-1). This volume covers the
operation of the TresCon NOx-N measuring module (highlighted in
gray in Fig. 1-1).

Note
Please read chapter 2, S

1.1 Function
The TresCon NOx-N analyzing module operates according to the
photometric UV absorption procedure. This is used to detect nitrate
(NO
3
-
). As this measuring method cannot differentiate between nitrate
and nitrite ions (NO
2
-
), a cumulative value (NOx-N) is calculated if any
nitrate is present. A 4-beam photometer is used. It grants the highest
stability and absolute accuracy. A WTW background correction
procedure ensures high accuracy - even in highly colored samples.
Measurement is performed without any additional reagents.
The following points describe the fundamental features of the TresCon
NOx-N:
z AutoCal
TresCon NOx-N performs an automatic zero-point calibration
(AutoCal) so that the instrument can always maintain its high degree
of absolute accuracy.
z AutoClean
The TresCon NOx-N can clean the entire analyzer system itself so
that the user only has to perform a minimum amount of
maintenance.
z AutoFlow
The TresCon NOx-N can monitor the entire analyzer system itself so
it can measure fluid levels and provide early warnings and
instructions to the operator to replace specific chemicals.
z AutoAdapt
The TresCon NOx-N optimizes its measuring interval according to
the current change in the measured value. As a result, reagent
consumption is reduced to a minimum.
z AutoTherm
The TresCon NOx-N automatically checks and regulates the
temperature of the measuring block. This ensures that the
instrument always functions safely.
z Interfaces
The TresCon NOx-N is equipped with all the digital and analog
interfaces required by the industry. Thus, a standard connection is
possible to digital interfaces (RS232 and RS485), analog interfaces
(0/4-20 mA) and PLC interfaces (12 relay contacts).
Note
Please read chapters 2 S
AFETY and 5 OPERATIONin volume 1,

Safety datasheets The current safety datasheets for all chemicals and solutions used can
be found on the Internet under www.WTW.com
.
1.2.2 Retrofitting the TresCon NOx-N
This section is only necessary if the TresCon NOx-N was purchased as
a retrofit kit.
Preparatory
activities
Installing the TresCon NOx-N in a measuring system can
– depending
on the configuration
– necessitate various preparations:
z Permeate supply:
Setting up a separate permeate supply (with its own catch location)
or connecting it to an existing permeate supply (catch location with
further analyzer modules)
z Chemicals:
If necessary, a larger tray can be mounted on the mounting stand of
TresCon for the chemical containers.
Note
Read the I
NSTALLATION section in the TERMINAL volume of the operating
manual before starting the retrofit!

1.2.3 Connecting up the TresCon NOx-N
This section describes how to connect the permeate supply, outlet and
chemicals.
Warning
Only trained personnel is allowed to work on the analyzing section.
Always take safety precautions when handling chemicals and comply
with the relevant regulations. This applies in particular to the warning
instructions on the chemical containers and in the safety datasheets.
Always use protective equipment!
Fig. 1-8 Connecting the permeate supply
Note
If the TresCon NOx-N measuring module is to be connected to an
overflow vessel that is already installed (measuring several parameters
at a single sample catch location), the overflow vessel at this position
must have 3 permeate connecting pieces. If this is not the case, replace
the overflow vessel.
If the TresCon NOx-N is to measure a new sample location, another
overflow vessel must be mounted.
1 Feed the permeate tubing of the TresCon NOx-N (black, ID =
1.5 mm) through the hole drilled in the bottom of the enclosure.
2 Stick the permeate tubing into the overflow vessel provided.

Cleaning solution causes severe corrosion
Do not allow this substance to get into the hands of children. Wear
suitable protective gloves and goggles/face mask when working with
this substance.
If this substance gets into the eyes, rinse thoroughly with water and
consult a doctor.
Caution
Only use distilled water without any contamination (softener or similar)!
Dist. H2O is also used for zero point calibration. Contaminated dist.
H2O causes incorrect measurement results.
4 Briefly shake the closed container with cleaning solution.
