3.1 Notes on installation

INFORMATION!

Inspect the cartons carefully for damages or signs of rough handling. Report damage to the carrier and to the local office of the manufacturer.

INFORMATION!

Do a check of the packing list to make sure that you have all the elements given in the order.

INFORMATION!

Look at the device nameplate to ensure that the device is delivered according to your order. Check for the correct supply voltage printed on the nameplate.

3.2 Storage and transport

CAUTION!

Do not store the electrode tip dry. This will shorten lifetime considerably. Always store the pH electrode 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 electrode tip was delivered contains a plastic tube with KCl solution and therefore is suitable for storage and transport (see following drawing).

INSTALLATION 3

• Since the pH electrode is made out of glass it is very fragile. Avoid shocks of any kind.

• Do not touch or scratch the pH sensitive glass tip of the electrode.

• Store the electrode in its original packaging in a dry, dust-free location. Keep it away from

dirt. If necessary, clean it as described on page 39.

1 Padding 2 Plastic tube filled with 3 molar KCl solution 3 pH electrode 4 O-ring 5 Washer 6 Protective cap over electrical connector 7 Sealing cap without hole to seal plastic tube 2 when electrode is in use

Storing the electrode in the provided plastic tube

• Screw the sealing cap off the plastic tube. Keep it in the original packaging.

• If there is not enough KCl solution in the plastic tube, fill it up with 3 molar KCl solution.

• Insert the electrode tip through the hole in the storage cap (see drawing on page 13).

• Carefully push the O-ring delivered with the storage cap on the electrode so that the cap sits

over the O-ring.

• Insert the electrode tip into the plastic tube until it is fully covered with KCl solution.

• Tighten the cap.

• Store the electrode in its original packaging.

3.3 Installation procedure

Because a new pH electrode needs to be calibrated before it is installed into its final measuring location, it is important to follow the installation order:

1. Unpack the electrode.

2. Connect the electrode to the signal converter.

3. Calibrate the electrode.

4. Install the electrode into its final measuring location.

The required steps are explained in the following sections.

3.4 Pre-installation requirements

CAUTION!

•

Never touch or scratch the pH sensitive glass tip of the electrode.

•

Make sure that the glass tip is clean and dust-free. If necessary, clean the tip as described on page 39

INSTALLATION 3

Figure 3-2: Handling the electrode

Unpacking the electrode

• Loosen the storage cap which is screwed or/and pushed on to the plastic tube 1.

• Gently pull the electrode out of the plastic tube 2.

• Lay the electrode on a soft mat/tissue 3.

• Screw or push the provided sealing cap on to the plastic tube, using O-ring as shown in the

drawing 4. Keep the storage cap (the one with the hole in it) in the original packaging.

3.5 Electrical connection

DANGER!

All work on the electrical connections may only be carried out with the power disconnected. Take note of the voltage data on the nameplate!

DANGER!

Observe the national regulations for electrical installations!

WARNING!

Observe without fail the local occupational health and safety regulations. Any work done on the electrical components of the measuring device may only be carried out by properly trained specialists.

The pH electrodes are available with or without integrated Pt100 temperature sensor. Electrodes without integrated Pt100 temperature sensor are connected to the signal converter using a coax cable. Electrodes with integrated temperature sensor use a SixPlug cable.

When ordering the one channel version, only the interface "Pos.A" is populated. In the version with two channels the interfaces "Pos.A" and "Pos.B" are populated.

CAUTION!

Moisture inside the sensor connector must be avoided! Moisture will shortcut the mV signal between the electrodes and deliver erratic readings! If moisture has entered the connector dry it with air (e.g. hair blower).

Figure 3-6: Connecting the cable to the sensor

OPTISENS PH 8300

Connecting the cable to the sensor

• Unscrew the protective cap from the sensor connector and keep it for future use 1.

• Ensure that both cable and electrode connector are absolutely dry 2.

• Make sure that the O-ring is positioned on the sensor connector 3.

• Screw the cable connector 4 on to the sensor and tighten it by hand.

3.6 Calibrating the electrode

Before the electrode is installed, it has to be calibrated. Proceed as described on page 29. Then continue with the installation procedure.
