Installation guide for Endress+Hauser CCS140/CCS141 chlorine sensors, covering mounting on CCA250 bracket, specifications, and setup.
About this manual
The CCS140 and CCS141 current‑measurement chlorine sensors are designed for free‑active chlorine monitoring in drinking‑water, pure‑water, and industrial‑water treatment. They operate by measuring the current generated when hypochlorous acid diffuses through a membrane and is reduced at the gold cathode.
The guide provides step‑by‑step installation on the CCA250 flow‑through bracket, required minimum flow of 30 l/h, back‑pressure limit of 1 bar, and polarity‑time requirements (60 min for CCS140, 90 min for CCS141). It also lists environmental limits, mechanical dimensions, and recommended accessories.

Frequently asked questions
What is the minimum flow rate required for installing the sensor on a CCA250 bracket?
The flow must be at least 30 l/h; lower flow can trigger an alarm and lock the dosing pump.
What is the maximum allowable back pressure for the sensor?
The sensor can tolerate a back pressure up to 1 bar (14.5 psi).
What IP rating does the sensor have?
The sensor is rated IP68.
