Description
Description
The TOC-810 represents the newest generation of LFE's on-line TOC-analyzers. These have proven themselves with considerable success in use at many chemical plants as well as other important industrial companies since the beginning of the '80s.
The LFE TOC-810 has evolved out of real-world applications as an on-line analyzer for the continuous TOC registration of highly- as well as low contaminated water. The demands placed on every component of such an on-line TOC-analyzer require special design solutions.
Continuous analysis with nearly 100% carbon conversion
- High temperature oxidation for the complete conversion of all organic carbon compounds
- Continuous analysis with short sample injection cycles (typ. < 10 sec)
- Continuous sample conditioning for improved real time analysis
Analytical precision
- Highly selective CO2 analysis without water vapor interference
- Instrument specific linearization
- Reliable full system calibration with calibration solutions
Special detail solutions for highest operational reliability
- All components meet the highest requirements for long term operational reliability.
- 100% process design - NOT a modified laboratory instrument
- Purgable cabinet section for NDIR photometer and main electronics as well as encapsulation of peripheral electronics
- Spatial separation of water bearing components
- Consistent use corrosion resistant materials
Comprehensive intelligent self-monitoring
- Distinction between operational and maintenance-related impairments
- Output of alarm conditions via analog and digital outputs as well as a plain text description on the LC display
Outstanding reactor service-life

- All inputs and outputs are individually configurable.
Options
Options
- Acidifier/ Sparger/ Multiplexer-unit
(ASM-unit; wall mounted)
The basic TOC-810 instrument functions as a TC-analyzer. The ASM-unit facilitates the removal of inorganically bound carbon (TIC).
This unit can be equipped with further options:
- automatic calibration for 3 test solutions
- Multiplex capability (3 sample streams)
- Sample dilution stage
- Simultaneous, selective VOC- or TIC- analysis
in conjunction with 2nd NDIR measuring channel and the Acidifier/ Sparger/ Multiplexer-unit - Analog expansion module
expands the system from 2 up to 6 configurable 0(4)-20 mA analog outputs - Digital expansion module
8 digital inputs plus expansion of system from 3 up to 10 digital outputs - RS-232 serial interface
- Modbus TCP interface
- Built-in paperless recorder
VOC-analysis package
Unique VOC Analysis Package (optional)
Background
Aside from the intentional removal of inorganically bound carbon (TIC) the sparger air can also inadvertently expel volatile organic carbon (VOC) compounds which escape detection.
The TOC-810 can be fitted with an optional package in conjunction with a 2nd photometer channel which simultaneously and continuously measures the VOC-level independent of the TOC- (or DOC-) analysis.
Functional Principle
The potentially VOC-enriched sparger air is split into two parallel gas streams each containing the CO2 background level representative of the TIC level of the water sample as well as possible VOC.
- The 1st gas stream is passed unaltered through the reference cell of the differential CO2 photometer channel.
- The 2nd gas stream is passed through a catalytic converter stage in which any VOC is oxidized to CO2 and added to the background CO2 level. This stream is sent to the sample side of the differential CO2 photometer.
The difference in IR radiation absorption in the photometer channel corresponds to the VOC concentration of the water sample.
The inherent response of a differential NDIR photometer to varying background levels is dynamically corrected for by the implementation of LFE's patented gain stabilization / common mode rejection algorithm.
First introduced by LFE in 1989, this unique method totally eliminates the need for a CO2 scrubber. The resultant maintenance requirements for the VOC analysis are minimal.
