263X Series Chlorine Electrodes
7. Installation
Align tab on electrode with notch on
fi
tting. Insert until fully seated.
Lubricate O-rings with a non-petroleum
based, viscous lubricant (grease)
compatible with the system.
Do Not Use Lubricant or Sealing Tape on Threads.
Do Not Overtighten. Do Not Use Tools.
6.2. Disposal
The electrode is not recyclable. Dispose of properly according to local, state and federal guidelines.
Reconditioning Procedure Continued:
(Steps 1-10, See Previous Page)
11. Fill beaker with a 12 mm (½ inch) of the appropriate solution.
12. Position or suspend the sensor 0.2 mm to 12 mm (¼ in. to ½ in.) above the appropriate
solution. DO NOT SUBMERGE THE SENSOR. See Figure 2.
13. Apply power to the system.
14. Monitor the nA of the sensor (press the down arrow once on the 8630 transmitter).
The nA reading should start to rise. Response time and nA reading will depend upon the
temperature of the bleach.
15. Once the sensor's nA reading reaches approximately 300-360 nA allow the sensor to
remain in the beaker, suspended over the appropriate solution, for an additional 20 minutes.
• If sensor does not recover quickly, cover the beaker to avoid air contamination.
• Contact the factory for assistance (www.gfsignet.com).
16. After 20 minutes, remove the sensor and install it into the
fl
ow cell and
restore
fl
ow to the system.
17. Calibrate the sensor after the system has become stable.
