CAUTION!
Apply O-ring lubricant to sensor O-rings prior to assembly.
Unlubricated O-rings may score the sealing surface in the 2720.
WARNING!
Wear appropriate eye, face, hand, body, and respiratory protection when using chemicals or solvents.
5.2 Cleaning
Cleaning techniques vary depending on the type of coating present on the glass electrode surface or reference junction.
Soft coatings can be removed by vigorous stirring, or with directed spray of an applicable detergent or solvent onto the glass
electrode surface. Chlorine bleach or mild detergent may be used to remove soft coatings. Always rinse electrode tip in clean water
after cleaning.
Hard coatings can be chemically removed. Use the least harsh chemical which will remove the contaminant within two (2) minutes
without attacking the materials of construction. e.g. calcium carbonate may be removed with a 5% HCL (muriatic acid) solution.
Oily or organic coatings can be removed with detergents or an appropriate solvent that does not attack the materials of
construction e.g. isopropyl alcohol may be used but acetone must be avoided to prevent damage to the CPVC sensor body.
ORP electrode surface (platinum rod) can be gently sanded with 600 grit wet and dry silicone or carbide sandpaper, jewelers rouge,
crocus cloth, or very fine steel wool.
