Carbo 520 Optical — CO2 Sensor


Carbo 520 Optical — CO2 Sensor

The Carbo 520 Optical is an inline Smart Sensor from Anton Paar GmbH for the determination of the CO2
concentration in liquids.
The robust stainless steel construction of the Carbo 520 Optical meets all requirements of the process environment
and is fully CIP capable. The sensor is maintenance free, safe to run dry and suitable to be used in food. The
Carbo 520 Optical is installed directly in the pipe or tank and no bypass is required. It is simple to retrofit the
Carbo 520 Optical into existing plants. The process liquid flows past the sensor, the CO2 concentration and
temperature are measured simultaneously and the values displayed on the mPDS 5 or Operating Terminal.
The Carbo 520 Optical has integrated self-diagnosis according to NAMUR NE107 and is connected via CAN bus to
the Evaluation Unit mPDS 5, the Remote Operating Terminal (ROT) or the Operating Terminal (OT) for data transfer.

Measuring principle of the CO2 Sensor


The Carbo 520 Optical is a highly selective optical sensor for measuring CO2 in liquids using infrared spectroscopy.
The measurement principle is based on the ATR method (Attenuated Total Reflection). A beam of infrared light is
passed through the ATR crystal in such a way that it reflects off the internal surfaces in contact with the sample. The
intensity of specific absorption bands of the reflected beam is measured by a detector and the corresponding CO2
value is calculated. The observed infrared spectrum is influenced by CO2 molecules only and not affected by other
gases.

As the measurement is performed at the surface of the prism and uses an infrared beam, color and turbidity do not
influence the measurement.

The Carbo 520 Optical is an inline Smart Sensor


which can be used to achieve consistent product
quality. Features and benefits of the sensor:

• Maintenance-free
• EHEDG certified
• Fast (measuring interval 4 sec)
• Degree of protection IP65 and IP67
• Fulfills the NAMUR recommendation NE107
(self-monitoring and diagnosis)
• Traceable materials, certified wetted parts
and O-rings
• Automatic extract/sugar compensation
• Drift free
• No external compressed air required
• No external purge gas required

The actual cable gland location may differ from the diagrams/pictures shown in the documentation due to the
configuration of the sensor when ordered.
