3.3 Cleaning Conductivity Cells
Before installing a conductivity cell, clean the electrodes as
follows.
3.3.1 Stainless Steel Conductivity Cells
Unscrew the outer electrode and thoroughly clean it with a
nylon-bristle brush (supplied) and a warm detergent solution.
Clean the central electrode in a similar manner, taking care not
to damage it. For more tenacious deposits a 2% hydrochloric
acid solution may be used. Rinse thoroughly with distilled
water after cleaning. The electrodes should have a dull,
frosted appearance which must not be removed by polishing
or abrasive cleaning. Refit the outer electrode.
3.4 Installing the Conductivity Cells
Caution. After
cleaning
conductivity cell, ensure it remains filled with liquid and is
not allowed to dry out.
