Maintenance & Procedures
HAZARD FROM WEAK ACID AQUEOUS SOLUTION
If the electrolyte leaks due to sensor damage, put the sensor in a plastic
bag so that the solution will not be smeared on other places and return the
sensor to Emerson Process Management or an industrial waste management
contractor.
The electrolyte is a weak acid aqueous solution of 5 to 6 in pH with an
irritating odor. It will not ignite spontaneously even if it is left. Nevertheless,
lead acetate, which is a component of the solution, is harmful to human
bodies and should be handled with care as follows:
•
If electrolyte is smeared on the skin or clothing, immediately wash the
contacted part with soapy water and wash off the solution with a large
amount of tap water.
•
If electrolyte gets into an eye, immediately wash the eye with a large
amount of tap water for 15 minutes and consult a doctor promptly.
•
If electrolytic solution or atomized electrolytic solution is inhaled,
immediately wash the nostrils and gargle with tap water and consult a
doctor promptly.
•
If electrolyte is swallowed, DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING! Immediately
wash the mouth with tap water. Swallow a large amount of tap water.
Consult a doctor promptly.
Do not disassemble or repair the sensor. Removing a sensor part or
remodeling the sensor will damage the sensor or leak the electrolyte, and
restoration to the original condition may not be possible.
Discarded sensors cause environmental contamination. Return a Worn Out
sensor to Emerson Process Management or an industrial waste management
contractor when discarding a Worn Out sensor.
