Getting Started
This article details effective methods for sensor installation, offering precautions and maintenance tips to ensure accurate measurements and optimal performance.
Installation Methods
- Submersible Installation Steps: The sensor lead wires emerge from the waterproof conduit, and the top 3/4 thread is connected to the waterproof conduit's 3/4 thread using Teflon tape. Ensure the top of the sensor and the wires are not wetted.
- Installation Notes:
- When installing the sensor, water level changes should be considered to ensure the device is at least 10cm below the water level and in an area with slow-moving, bubble-free water.
- The sensor should be installed 5cm away from the surrounding walls, and there should be no obstructions within 7cm below the device.
Precautions and Maintenance
◆ The chlorophyll sensor undergoes rigorous calibration before leaving the factory and is ready for use upon arrival, requiring no further calibration.
◆ Remove the black rubber protective cover before measurement.
◆ If the equipment exhibits obvious malfunctions, do not attempt to repair it yourself; contact us immediately!
◆ Clean the transmitter's measuring probe regularly, depending on the operating environment, as deposits will cause measurement errors. Avoid scratching the probe's light guide during cleaning. (We recommend cleaning every 30 days.)
◆ We recommend washing the transmitter's outer surface with water. If dirt remains, wipe it with a soft, damp cloth.
◆ Calibrate the equipment before each use. For long-term use, we recommend calibration every 3 months. The calibration frequency should be adjusted appropriately based on different application conditions (degree of dirt in the application environment, chemical deposits, etc.).
◆ Do not immerse the cable plug in water before locking it to the equipment plug.
