For 6920-style sondes, make certain that fresh batteries have been installed and that the battery lid is in
place. Then position the zinc anode on the connector making certain that the flat is toward the bail
hardware (Figure 5 above) and that the anode is installed below the threads on the connector.
Figure 6
For the 600XLM and 600 OMS V2-1 sondes, the user will be required to manually cut a second flat on the
other end of the C-shaped anode sections. Then make certain that fresh batteries have been installed in the
sonde. Finally, with the battery lid in place, install the anode sections on the connector being certain that
the flats are on the sides where the bail attaches to the battery cover and that the assembly is below the
threads of the connector. The proper installation is shown in Figure 6 above.
For all sondes, after the sections of the anode have been put in place, squeeze the halves together, using
pliers if necessary for a tight fit.
Finally secure the anode to the connector using a cable tie which is included in the Model 6182 kit.
