The difference between the displayed voltage on the BCM Pro' and -1.900V (or 1.900V for older BCMs) may be applied to potential readings - if required - until the unit can be sent for calibration by Buckleys or an authorised Buckleys' Certified Distributor.
BathyCorrometer Calibration Kit Electronics Calibration Check 1. The electronics in the BCM/BCM Pro’ can be checked with the aid of the CalChecker Pro’. When connected to the BCM/BCM Pro’, this produces a precision voltage of -1.900V DC which can be compared with the reading on the BCM/BCM Pro’.
Instruction Manual nose cone. The ideal temperature for the water is 20-25°C. Note for mixture 300 grams to 10 litres of de-ionised water. 5. Allow the electrode to reach a stable potential (10 to 15 minutes). The voltage difference between the K-SAT electrode and the internal silver/silver chloride electrode can be read directly off the digital display on the BCM/BCM Pro’.
BathyCorrometer Calibration Kit Tarnished blocks will give a lower reading than clean ones. The test blocks should not be left in the seawater after use. Only one test block should be used at a time. Long Term Storage Laying-Up Remove the K-SAT cells, refit their protective caps, wipe down and store in a cool dark place.
Instruction Manual Maintenance Very little maintenance is required apart from keeping the unit clean and ensuring that the holes in the red nose cone are kept clear of any obstructions such as dirt or marine growth etc. The calibration of the BCM/BCM Pro’ electronics and the reference electrode should be checked at regular intervals.
BathyCorrometer Calibration Kit Replace the red nose cone, ensuring that there is no debris or foreign matter around its seat, and that the cut out is positioned to accommodate the reference electrode. Replace the stainless steel washer and slotted nut and tighten so there is no gap between the red nose cone and the white body.
