When you have tried everything: check to ensure that the ring-shaped
counter electrode at the tip of the electrode stem is not a brown/grey or
yellow/greenish colour but rather silvery white. If it is the latter, it is worn out
and can be replaced by ProMinent.

Maintenance
Service intervals
Daily/weekly depending on application.
Maintenance work
S Check the sensor's reading on the controller using an appropriate
instrument for measuring chlorine (e.g. DPD-1).
S If necessary, recalibrate the sensor (see chapter 7.2 "Calibration").
Cleaning the membrane
If the membrane is contaminated and the sensor cannot be calibrated, you
can try to clean the membrane carefully.
First dismantle the sensor. Follow the safety advice.
Remove the dirt gently:
S Rinse the membrane under a soft, cold jet of water.
Changing the membrane
If it is not possible to calibrate the sensor even after the membrane has been
cleaned, or if the membrane is damaged, the membrane cap must be
changed (see chapter 5 "Assembly", chapter 7.1 "Run-in period" and chapter
7.2 "Calibration").
