2.4. Top Tips for successful measurements using optical electrodes

Always keep the measurement chamber and electrode lenses clean.
Always fit the sleeve and end cap during both calibration and measurement.
Ensure the End Cap Plug is also always fitted.
Always allow the readings to settle completely during both calibration and
measurement.
Always try to eliminate air bubbles by agitating the Probe after insertion
both during calibration and measurement.
Always calibrate and zero the electrode as close to your sample temperature
as possible. This is especially important with the PT 1557 Refined Oil probe.
Always zero the optical electrodes just prior to use in clean water (bottled
still mineral water is ideal) then deploy without disturbing the
measurement chamber. This is especially important when using the
Turbidity and Refined Oil probes.

2.5. About the Lanyard

The lanyard supplied with the Macro 900 Meter may, at first, appear to be a
little long. This is intentional. In order to keep the Meter out of the way whilst
your hands are full, the lanyard has been made long enough to wear round
your neck and over your shoulder so the Meter sits on your hip.
The extra length also allows the meter to be held in a comfortable position in
front of you during normal use. In order to prevent you being dragged into the
water in the event of the Probe cable becoming snagged, the lanyard includes a
quick-release clip.
