3.2 Storage and transport
• Since the pH sensor is made out of glass it is very fragile. Avoid shocks of any kind.
• Do not touch or scratch the membrane glass.
• Store and transport the device in a dry, dust-free environment.
• Store and transport the device in an environment with a temperature between 4...+30
°
C /
40...+86
°
F.
• The original packing is designed to protect the equipment. It has to be used if the device is
transported or sent back to the manufacturer including the sensor transportation packing, to
prevent damage of the sensor.
3.3 Pre-installation requirements
CAUTION!
Do not store the sensor tip dry. This will shorten lifetime considerably.
Always store the pH sensor tip wet in a 3 molar KCl solution when not in use. Saltless water
must be avoided since this would leak the KCl ions. The original packing in which the sensor tip
was delivered contains a plastic tube with KCl solution and therefore is suitable for storage and
transport.
CAUTION!
•
Do not drop the device! Handle the device with care!
•
Never touch or scratch the pH membrane glass of the sensor.
•
Store the sensor in its original packaging in a dry, dust-free location. Keep it away from dirt. If
necessary, clean it. See cleaning procedure on page 30
.
•
Do not make any mechanical modifications to the sensor (electrodes shortened, drilled, bent
or scratched). This can result in the loss of proper functionality, as well as the rights under
the device warranty.
•
The sensor must be suitable for the temperature, pressure and medium conditions which are
specified (including chemical resistance).
