NOTE
The process temperature ratings of the sensor assembly are given in Table 1. In the table, in-line
installation means that only the sensing end, not the sensor body, is immersed in the solution.
Submersion installation is when the entire sensor assembly (sensing end and body) is completely
submersed. In addition to the normal operating pressure and temperature limits of the sensor as shown
above, the DolpHin mounting accessories also have pressure and temperature limits. The specifications
for the mounting accessories, shown in the Accessories section further in this document, may be

Universal Bushing Assembly
The universal bushing assembly is comprised of a
bushing, a lockscrew, a Viton O-ring, a back-up ring,
and a split ring, and provides the following features:
• Allows sensor insertion and removal without
causing cable “wind-up”.
Photo File 0209024 F
• Allows adjustment of submersion depth at either
2.1 or 3.1 in (53 or 79 mm) with the flat electrode,
or either 2.5 or 3.5 in (63 or 89 mm) with the
domed glass electrode.
• Provides a 1 NPT process connection, rather
than the 3/4 NPT connection on the sensor body. Figure 15.
