SENSOR PREPARATION

FIG. 2

3.0FREE CHLORINE SENSOR ASSEMBLY. The Free Chlorine Sensor is shipped with the membrane cap pre-installed and covered with a cap with water inside to keep the membrane wet. Make sure to keep sensor cap, anode and cathode inside the sensor body, away oily or greasy materials. Contact with oil or grease will result in inaccurate measurements.

NOTE: IF SENSOR WILL BE STORED DRY OUT OF FLOW

CELL, SHAKE BODY DOWNWARD INTO A SINK TO REMOVE THE FILL SOLUTION. TAKE THE MEMBRANE CAP AND IMMERSE IN A CUP OF TAP WATER UNTILL READY TO REUSE. SEE

SECTION 9. REPLACE CAP AND ELECTROLYTE BEFORE INSTALL- ING INTO FLOW CELL (see SECTION 10 for cap and electrolyte change. See SECTION 5 for sensor installation into flow cell).

SECTION 4.0

FLOW CELL INSTALLATION

4.0FLOW CELL.To obtain accurate Free Chlorine reading, the Sensor must be installed into the Flow Cell to prevent air bubbles formation on the membrane, proper spacing between the sensor and the installation wall, and laminar flow across the membrane.

4.1. Using two 1/4” NPT Tube fittings, connect the FC72 Flow

Cell into your system, noting the inlet (bottom) and outlet

(side) orientation. (see FIGURE 2)

4.2. Install clamp with rubber backing as shown in FIG. 2A.

4.3 Drill 3/8" diameter hole on the panel.

SENSOR INSTALLATION

5.0SENSOR INSTALLATION INTO FLOW CELL.

a.First install threaded fitting onto sensor body (remove fitting if pre-installed in flow cell)

b.Install snap-ring into groove on sensor body

c.Next, slide o-ring onto body of sensor until it reaches bottom of threaded fitting.

d.Thread sensor assembly into top of flow cell as shown in FIGURE 2.

d. Turn on flow and verify the flow through the Flow Cell is at least 0.2gpm (45 liters/hour and no more than 0.6gpm (135 liters/hour).
