SILKOSTAT 9210
Operation The 9210 can analyse up to six different samples. The sample to be analysed circulates in a fast loop permitting rapid renewal of the sample. Adjustment of the flow is carried out with the help of a needle valve (2). At the beginning of the analysis, the sample is introduced into the measurement cell (4) with the help of a solenoid valve (5).
The 1st reagent is added with the pump (9). The silica contained in the sample now reacts with the molydate and forms the silicomolybdic complex. The reagent time is relatively long.
Oxalic acid is then added to avoid the interference of phosphates and to intensify the colour.
The silicomolybdic complex is reduced to a blue molybdenum complex by means of ferrous ions. A photometric measurement is carried out at the end of the reaction.

3. Installation
Unpacking
The instrument should be unpacked with care. Be careful not to mislay the accessories during unpacking.
Caution :
Assembly should not be carried out by non-qualified personnel.
The power supply should not be connected until the installation has been completed and checked.
Inspection The instrument has been tested and checked at the factory before shipping, however it is advisable to carry out a visual inspection to be sure that it has not suffered any damage. Damaged packaging could mean the presence of damage not immediately visible. Keep the packaging in case of complaints. For any missing parts or accessories, please contact your distributor.
Pre-installation Before installing the analyser, think about the following precautions:
• Place the analyser close to a sample point. The sample should be homogenous and representative. This will allow the response time to be reduced. The temperature of the sample should be between 5 and 50°C. The pressure of the sample should be between 0.2 and 6 bar and remain relatively stable. The solution should be free of particles. The sample lines should be in PE/PTFE/FEP (∅ 4 x 6 mm).
• Avoid any location with a corrosive atmosphere or subject to liquid spills.
• Chose a dry and dust-free location.
• The ambient temperature of the analyser should not exceed 45°C. If the temperature is below 5°C, the analyser should be installed in a heated cabinet.

Mains power connection
Figure 9 Layout of electronic boards in the datalyt box
The electrical installation should be carried out by duly qualified personnel. A supply voltage of 100-240 VAC is acceptable without changing the configuration. The power supply terminals can be removed from their housing to make connection easier.
For safety reasons, it is imperative to respect the working procedure below :
• Use a three-wire power lead (line + neutral + earth) sized for supplying the required power.
• The instrument should be connected to the mains via a circuit-breaker or fuse whose value should be less or equal to 20 A. It should be located in proximity and be identified.
• This connection should cut-off the phase and the neutral when electrical problems occur or when the user wishes to intervene inside the instrument. On the other hand, the earth conductor should always be connected.
Danger :
No intervention should be carried out on the instrument without first switching off the power.

Appendix D : Pressure range change
The battery of the input solenoid valves works with pure water sample. The pressure range is about 0,2 to 2 bars. If the pressure is about 0,5 to 6 bars, it is required to change the solenoid valves collar (see figure 1 item 6). So a « High pressure » kit contains 6 collars (0,8 diameter) and a TORX key.
