Measuring / Operation

4.1

Calibration

Note

For calibration, please refer to the operating manual of the measuring 
instrument.

4.2

Measuring

Note the required minimum depth of immersion and minimum approach flow 
(see chapter 7 T

ECHNICAL

 

DATA

).

The minimum flow can be provided in different ways, e. g.:

The flow of the water to be measured is sufficient (aeration tank, water 
pipe, stream)

Slowly pull the sensor through the water by hand (lake, container), or

Use a flow aid, e.g. stirrer.

4.3

Storage

Always store the sensor in the calibration and storage vessel at a 
temperature in the range 0 ... +50 °C (32 ... 122 °F). Make sure that the 
sponge in the calibration and storage vessel is always moist.

Calibration and

storage vessel,

-D

Moisten the sponge:

Pull out the insert (1).

Take out the sponge (2), wet it, then slightly squeeze it out.

Put in the sponge and install the insert in the calibration and storage 
vessel again.
