Endress Hauser Manual or automatic retractable assembly Cleanfit CPA871 CPA875 CPA472D CPA473 CPA474
The Cleanfit CPA871, CPA875, CPA472D, CPA473, and CPA474 are manual or automatic retractable assemblies from Endress+Hauser, designed for the safe installation, cleaning, and calibration of pH, ORP, oxygen, and NIR sensors while the process is running. Each model is tailored to specific industry requirements, from hygienic life sciences applications to heavy-duty chemical and wastewater processes.
Key Features and Benefits
-
Highest Operational Safety: The assemblies feature intelligent functions that prevent the sensor guide from moving into the process when no sensor is installed, and prevent the sensor from being removed while in the measuring position. This ensures no process medium escapes during operation, cleaning, or calibration.
-
No Process Interruption: Sensors can be replaced, cleaned, and calibrated while the process is running, saving significant maintenance time and costs. The optional electric or pneumatic control system enables fully automated cleaning and calibration cycles.
-
Application-Specific Designs: The CPA871 is the flexible workhorse for water/wastewater and chemical industries. The CPA875 is the hygienic specialist for food, biotech, and life sciences, fully certified (EHEDG and ASME BPE) with FDA-compliant materials. The CPA472D is the heavy-duty assembly for aggressive chemical media at high pressures and temperatures up to 140°C and 16 bar. The CPA473 handles fibrous or sticky media with patented sleeve seals and integrated scrapers. The CPA474 is designed for media that could affect stainless steel, with only polymers in contact with the medium.
-
High Modularity and Flexibility: A wide variety of wetted materials, process connections, and drive types (manual or pneumatic) enable precise adaptation to individual process requirements.

The Cleanfit CPA871, CPA875, CPA472D, CPA473, and CPA474 are manual or automatic retractable assemblies from Endress+Hauser, designed for the safe installation, cleaning, and calibration of pH, ORP, oxygen, and NIR sensors while the process is running. Each model is tailored to specific industry requirements, from hygienic life sciences applications to heavy-duty chemical and wastewater processes.
All assemblies share a core principle of highest operational safety. Intelligent functions prevent the sensor guide from moving into the process when no sensor is installed, and prevent the sensor from being removed while in the measuring position. This ensures no process medium escapes during operation, cleaning, or calibration. Sensors can be replaced, cleaned, and calibrated while the process is running, saving significant maintenance time and costs. The optional electric or pneumatic control system enables fully automated cleaning and calibration cycles.
