Decommissioning & storage
The aim of decommissioning is to prepare the photometer properly for storage
and to conserve it during storage.

Disconnect the voltage supply to the photometer and remove all electrical
connections.

Interrupt the flow and remove the feed and return from the measuring cell.
3.
Clean the measuring cell (

Remove the photometer from the measuring point.
4.
Make sure that all covers and hoods are closed and all fastenings on the
photometer are fastened.
There are no special requirements for storing the instrument. However, please
note the following information:
The photometer contains electronic components. Storage must fulfill the
usual conditions. It is important to note that the storage temperature must
be between -20 and +50°C.
All components that come into contact with the sample during operation
have to be dry and clean for a longer period of time before being put into
storage.
The photometer and accessories must be protected from weather factors,
condensing humidity, and aggressive gases.
If the photometer has not been in operation for more than 1 year, the
backup battery of the OilGuard data logger has to be replaced when
recommissioned (
→
Section 5.6).
