15 Dilatometer Disassembly and Cleaning
When disassembling the dilatometer cell, wear protective gloves and glasses
.
Collect parts that have been in contact with electrolyte on a separate tray for subsequent
cleaning.
1.
Disconnect all cables from the dilatometer cell and the sensor unit.
2.
Remove the dilatometer cell from the temperature chamber.
Then follow the instructions as described in chapter 6, starting at step 3.
Clean all wetted parts right after disassembly. Ultrasonic cleaning with water and/or detergent
wash is recommended. Valves and tubing may clog if not properly purged with water or other
solvent.
After cleaning, dry all parts in vacuum at 80°C in vacuum (<0.1 mbar) overnight. See page 15
for a list of all parts that need to be dried.
