3.1 General notes on installation
3.2 Storage and transport
• Since the pH sensor is made out of glass it is very fragile. Avoid shocks of any kind.
• Do not touch or scratch the membrane glass.
• Store the sensor in its original packaging in a dry, dust-free location. Keep it away from dirt. If
necessary, clean it as described on page 24.
DANGER!
For devices used in hazardous areas, additional safety notes apply; please refer to the Ex
documentation.
DANGER!
All work on the electrical connections may only be carried out with the power disconnected.
DANGER!
Observe the national regulations for electrical installations!
WARNING!
During installation of the device make sure that you use ESD (electronic discharge) protection
equippment.
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.
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.
CAUTION!
Do not store the sensor tip dry. This will shorten lifetime considerably.
Always store the pH sensor 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 sensor tip
was delivered contains a plastic tube with KCl solution and therefore is suitable for storage and
transport.
