5. Operation
5.1.1 Maintenance procedure for the GS-[….]DP type sensor (Cont’d)
Electrolyte is subject to evaporation.
The degree of evaporation depends highly on the initial
evaporation factor of the electrolyte and the circumstantial
conditions, such as humidity and environmental
temperature.
The level of the electrolyte in the gas sensor can be read
from the scale on the gas sensor body (see fig. 5.1.13).
Check this level at regular time intervals and top-up to max.
in case the electrolyte level has dropped below one quarter
of the scale.
Topping up must be followed by a “zero” and “span” calibration
(see section 5.2.).
The electrolyte is a non-toxic chemical substance.
However, avoid contact with your eyes, skin or clothing.
If such contact should occur, flush the affected area with water immediately.
Bionics Instrument can not be held responsible for accidents or injuries
resulting from careless handling of the electrolyte.
