Maintenance and Precautions

5.1 Maintenance

  • Inductive electrode is basically maintenance free; It is recommended to clean up the sensor probe attachment every 30 days; Avoid the use of hard objects to cause the damage of the light guide part of the measuring probe during cleaning; Please wipe with a soft damp cloth.
  • It is recommended to clean the outer surface of the sensor with water flow. If there is still debris residue, please wipe it with a wet soft cloth.

5.2 Note

  • Installation measurement: avoid the installation measurement at the place where the water flow is turbulent, and reduce the influence of water bubbles on the measurement. Keep the measuring probe 2cm away from the bottom.
  • The probe of the sensor is fouling or attached with more organisms, so the cleaning force can be increased appropriately. Slight scratch on the probe surface does not affect the normal use of the sensor. But pay attention not to penetrate the shell of the probe.
  • Suggestion: the protective cover of our company should be selected to prevent the influence of microbial attachment on the measurement results.

5.3 Other

Problem Possible Causes Solution

The operation interface cannot be connected or the measurement results are not displayed| Wrong cable connection| Check the wiring mode
Wrong sensor address| Check the address for errors
The measured value is too high, too low or the value is continuously unstable| The sensor probe is attached by foreign objects| Clean the sensor probe surface
