Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of industrial aqueous solution conductivity measuring equipment, in particular to an aqueous solution conductivity monitor. Background Art
[0002] The conductivity of aqueous solutions is usually measured using conductivity electrodes and matching conductivity measuring instruments. During the measurement process, direct current or alternating current is connected to the parallel plates of the conductivity electrodes, and a potential difference is applied to the aqueous solution, causing the ions in the aqueous solution to move under the action of the electric field, forming a current. The conductivity electrodes are then used to measure the current and potential difference in the solution, and the conductivity is calculated.
[0003] Most of the existing conductivity measuring instruments use sine wave AC signals for measurement. When measuring sine wave AC signals, the output power is small, the compatibility with digital circuits is poor, the circuit requirements are high, and a large investment is required. In addition, the electrode surface through which the current passes is prone to polarization. After the electrode is polarized, the electrode potential deviates from its equilibrium potential, which will cause serious errors in the measurement. In order to slow down the polarization of the conductivity electrode, the polarization effect can often be reduced by increasing the effective area of the electrode, increasing the electrode spacing, and adding coatings. However, once the electrode is selected, the difficulty of adjusting the effective area of the electrode, the electrode spacing, and adding coatings are usually large, and the effect is low.

[0015] The aqueous solution conductivity monitor of the present invention, through the setting of the square wave control circuit in the square wave excitation circuit, can, after being connected to the main processor, utilize the PWM frequency signal of the main processor to not only control the square wave excitation circuit to generate a square wave voltage signal and provide a square wave voltage signal for the conductivity electrode, but also can adjust the frequency of the square wave voltage signal generated by the square wave excitation circuit through the frequency control of the PWM frequency signal of the main processor, so that the frequency of the square wave voltage signal applied to the conductivity electrode can be adjusted.
[0016] The aqueous solution conductivity monitor of the present invention provides a square wave voltage signal for the conductivity electrode, and measures the conductivity of the aqueous solution through the square wave voltage signal. The square wave voltage signal will produce rapid voltage changes at the rising and falling edges. This rapid change will excite the inductance and capacitance elements in the circuit, thereby generating a freely decaying oscillation signal. This freely decaying oscillation signal contains high-frequency components. The signal within a specific frequency range can be retained by a bandpass filter, thereby improving the signal-to-noise ratio of the response signal; and the high-frequency components of the oscillation signal can also be used for high-sensitivity detection.

At the same time, when controlled by the PWM frequency signal of the main processor, it can be operated on the main processor, and its adjustment operation is convenient.
[0019] The aqueous solution conductivity monitor of the present invention applies a high-frequency square wave voltage signal to the conductivity electrode by adjusting the frequency of the square wave voltage signal applied to the conductivity electrode. The polarization effect of the conductivity electrode is reduced by alternating oxidation and reduction on the surface of the conductivity electrode under the high-frequency square wave voltage signal. Compared with the existing method of reducing the polarization effect by increasing the effective area of the electrode, increasing the electrode spacing, adding a coating, etc., the monitor has high operability, is simple to operate, easy to implement, and more effective.
[0020] In addition, the aqueous solution conductivity monitor of the present invention also uses the ingenious design of the square wave amplitude switching circuit in the square wave excitation circuit, including the voltage divider circuit and the electronic switch U3, so that the amplitude of the square wave voltage signal generated by the square wave excitation circuit can be adjusted and switched by the main processor through the gating control of the electronic switch U3. In this way, it can be compatible with the conductivity electrodes with different constants, greatly improving the adaptability of the aqueous solution conductivity monitor of the present invention and making the application range of the aqueous solution conductivity monitor of the present invention wider.
[0021] The aqueous solution conductivity monitor of the present invention, based on the setting of the square wave excitation circuit, controls the square wave excitation circuit to generate and provide a square wave voltage signal for the conductivity electrode through the program of the main processor, so that under the input of the square wave voltage signal, the signal-to-noise ratio of the response signal can be improved, and has the advantages of higher sensitivity, large output power, and good compatibility with digital circuits. At the same time, the frequency and amplitude of the square wave voltage signal of the square wave excitation circuit can also be controlled by the program of the main processor, and the function of variable frequency regulation can be provided, so that the online monitoring of conductivity can be switched back and forth in different frequency bands, which can not only effectively distinguish the pulse signal of the frequency type flowmeter measuring the flow rate, avoid mutual interference with the pulse signal of the frequency type flowmeter measuring the flow rate, and make the detection of the aqueous solution conductivity and the measurement process of other frequency type flowmeters more stable; it can also reduce the polarization effect of the conductivity electrode and reduce the measurement error caused by the polarization of the conductivity electrode.
