Installation
3.8.3 Recommended sample flow rate
For optimal response time, the recommended sample flow rate for optical sensors is
150 mL/min. The optimal TC sensor flow rate is based on the membrane and is necessary a
higher flow rate for TC sensors.
Control the flow with the outlet valve on the flow meter (number 3 in Figure 18 below) to avoid
foam developing inside the flow chamber which could lead to erroneous oxygen measurement
values.
3.8.4 Sensor insertion
• Insert the sensor straight into the flow chamber or socket. Do not twist the sensor.
• Hand tighten the attaching collar.
• Connect the sensor cable.
Check for leaks; replace O-rings if product leaks are visible.
3.8.5 Sensor removal
• If not using the ORBISPHERE 32003 insertion/extraction valve (refer to The 32003
insertion/extraction valve on page 37 ) you will need to shut off the sample flow and drain the
sampling circuit of liquid.
• Remove the sensor cable connected at the sensor end.
• Hold the sensor body in one hand to avoid rotation, and unscrew the collar with the other
hand.
• Pull the sensor straight out of the socket or flow chamber.
• Install sensor storage cap and sensor base (to protect the connection).
