Technical Specifications

The F-100 delivers precise fluoride measurements from 0.02 to 19,000 mg/L with automatic temperature compensation via the integrated PT1000 sensor. The ion-selective membrane provides exceptional selectivity for fluoride ions while minimizing interference from other ions in the solution.

The fast response time of less than 30 seconds makes it ideal for real-time monitoring and process control applications.

Understanding Fluoride Monitoring

Fluoride monitoring is crucial for:

• Drinking Water: Optimal fluoride levels (0.7-1.2 mg/L) help prevent tooth decay
• Health Safety: Preventing excessive fluoride that can cause fluorosis
• Industrial Control: Monitoring fluoride in manufacturing processes
• Environmental Protection: Tracking fluoride pollution in water bodies

Connectivity and Integration

With its RS485 Modbus RTU interface, the F-100 seamlessly integrates into modern SCADA systems and IoT networks. The 4-20mA current output option ensures compatibility with traditional industrial controllers and data acquisition systems.

Installation and Maintenance

The F-100 requires minimal maintenance. Regular calibration with standard fluoride solutions ensures continued accuracy. The robust IP68-rated construction allows for continuous immersion in water systems.
