6.2.1 Cleaning the gold cathode
The gold cathode only need be cleaned when it is visibly soiled or there is a coating of

To clean it, proceed as follows:
•
Unscrew the membrane cap from the membrane body.
•
Carefully clean the gold surface in two stages with the abrasive sheet (contained in
scope of supply) until the (silver) coating is fully removed. Use the green sheet first
and then the yellow sheet.
•
Clean the electrode with drinking or distilled water.
•
Fill the membrane cap with fresh electrolyte COY 3-F and screw it back onto the mem-
brane body (up to the stop).
