Maintenance
Work
The sensor should regularly (once a month) undergo a visual check and be cleaned if necessary.
If deposits on the glass electrode withstand cleaning with a soft, moistened cloth, the following
cleaning agents may be used.
Kind of deposit
Agent and duration of application
General deposits
Non-abrasive household cleaner
Scale or metal hydroxides
Diluted hydrochloric acid (approx. 0.1-3 %, 1-5 minutes)
Oil, grease
Solvents, like alcohol or acetone
Biofouling
Mixture of diluted hydrochloric acid and pepsin, several hours
Solvents (e.g. acetone) must not be used to clean electrodes as
they can demage the plastic stems.
It is essential that the sensor are rinsed thoroughly after having been cleaned.
