1.3 I NSTALLING THE OXYGEN SENSOR
The T-7 Oxygen Sensor must be installed before the instrument can be used.
Ensure that the monitor is switched off.
Remove the sensor from its protective bag. Inspect the sensor for damage or electrolyte
leakage. If the sensor is damaged obtain a replacement. Do not use the defective sensor as
it may be damaged.
Caution: the sensor electrolyte is caustic. Do not let it come into contact with skin. If it does,
immediately flush the affective area with water. Consult the Emergency First Aid procedures
as set out in the Material Safety Data Sheet for the sensor. Do not attempt to open or repair
the sensor. Leaking or exhausted sensors should be disposed of in accordance with local
regulations. Consult the Material safety Data Sheet supplied with the sensor.
Plug one end of the coiled cable into the telephone jack receptacle on the end of the
sensor. The jack will only fit one way, so if it does not fit, rotate it until it slides in easily.
Plug the other end of the coiled cable into the receptacle located on the right hand side of
the rear panel of the instrument. This jack will only fit one way, so do not force it.
Note : For sterilization procedures on the Oxygen Cell, see Section 3 on Page 15 below.
Caution : Do NOT autoclave the oxygen sensor
