3 Intended use
The optek-sensors TF16 and their variants are to be applied only as scattered
light turbidimeters for liquids and gases in inline applications according to the
technical data.
The use of the sensors in hazardous locations is prohibited.
You can purchase flameproof sensors for hazardous locations from optek. For
these sensors, special instruction manuals are delivered with the sensor.
Unauthorized constructional changes, additional fittings or rebuildings regarding
the sensor are prohibited. The only exception are rebuildings into one of the va-
riants listed in the chapter "Validity of the instruction manual". Changes to and
interference with the converter program are prohibited as well.
To lay sensor cables underground without protection is prohibited.
The manufacturer is not liable for damage resulting from misuse.
Following this instruction manual is part of the intended use.

4 Description of TF16 / TF16-N sensors
The TF16 model is a high precision dual channel scattered light turbidimeter. It
measures direct light and light scatterd from particles in the process medium at
an angle of 11°. The sensor is made entirely of stainless steel and designed for
direct installation into pipelines.
Fig. 1 TF16
The following are the main sensor components:
Fig. 2 Schematic TF16
1. Sensor body
2. Windows
3. Optics module
4. Detector (direct light)
5. Detector (scattered light)
6. Optics module
7. Lamp
Its modular construction offers maximum flexibility in adapting to the process,
without affecting the property of measurement. An appropriately defined light
beam penetrates the process medium. The light scattered from particles in the
process medium, e. g. traces of suspended solids, immiscible liquids or gas
bubbles, is detected by eight hermetically sealed silicon photodiodes at an angle
of 11°. Simultaneously, the unscattered light is detected as direct light by
another photodiode. The receiver optics design guarantees that extraneous
lights created inside the sensor body are not included in measurements.

Due to the small scattering angle, direct light and scattered light practically travel
the same distance in the process medium. This is why product specific
disturbances such as color or color changes of the carrier medium as well as
soilings on windows may be optimally compensated.
