5. SENSOR MODULE
Introducing the sensor module
The sensor module is covered with a protective cardboard sheath
for transportation. Remove this sheath before use.
The sensor module comprises three removable electrodes:
Working electrode (W)
Counter electrode (C)
Reference electrode (R)
The working electrodes and reference electrode are supplied with protective
rubber caps. These are intended to protect the electrode surfaces. They should
be removed during analysis, and replaced when the instrument is not in use.
Trace2o recommends removing the reference electrode from the sensor module
for storage. When replacing the protective cap for the reference electrode, fill with
deionised water, as this will prevent the reference electrode from drying out.
The sensor module also includes:
Stirrer
Temperature probe
Nitrogen nozzle
