=== 6. Maintenance ===

==== 6.1 Use and maintenance ====
'''a) Maintenance schedule'''

The cleanliness of the measuring window is very important for maintaining accurate readings.

!'''Maintenance task'''
!'''Recommended maintenance frequency'''
|-
|Calibrate  sensors

(if  required, by the competent authority)
|According to the maintenance schedule  required by the competent department
|}
'''b) Maintenance method'''

* Sensor outer surface: Clean the outer surface of the sensor with tap water. If debris remains, wipe it with a soft, wet cloth. For stubborn dirt, you can add some household detergent to the tap water, but rinse thoroughly with clean water afterwards.
* Check the cable of the sensor: The cable should not be tightened while the sensor is operating, as this may cause the internal wires to break and prevent the sensor from functioning properly.
* Check the sensor’s measurement window to see if there is any dirt. Use a normal cleaning brush if there is some.

'''c) Matters that require attention'''

* The probe contains sensitive optical and electronic components. Make sure the probe is not subjected to severe mechanical impact. There are no components inside the probe that need to be maintained by the user; open it only when specifically instructed by ATRONIA, as opening it may damage the internal components.

'''d) Sensor’s Calibration'''

* Zero calibration: Take an appropriate amount of zero‑turbidity solution in a large beaker. Place the sensor vertically in the solution, ensuring that the front end of the sensor is at least 10 cm from the bottom of the beaker. Perform the zero calibration after the reading has stabilized for 3 minutes. For instructions, refer to the appendix.
* Slope calibration: Place the sensor probe in the standard solution, ensuring that the front end of the sensor is at least 10 cm from the bottom of the beaker. Perform the slope calibration after the reading has stabilized for 3 to 5 minutes. For instructions, refer to the appendix.

For sensor with a range of 0 to 1000 NTU and 0 to 100 NTU, the slope calibration example is as

follows (calibrated in 1000 NTU standard solution, the written value is 1000x10, i.e. 0x2710):

Request frame: <code>07 06 10 04 27 10 D6 91</code>

Response frame: <code>07 06 10 04 27 10 D6 91</code>

For sensor with a range of 0 to 20 NTU, the slope calibration example is as follows (calibrated in

20 NTU standard solution, the written value is 20x100, i.e. 0x07D0):

Request frame: <code>07 06 10 04 07 D0 CF 01</code>

Response frame: <code>07 06 10 04 07 D0 CF 01</code>

'''c) Set the device ID address:'''

Role: set the MODBUS device address of the electrode;

Change the device address 06 to 01. The example is as follows

Request frame: <code>07 06 20 02 00 01 E2 6C</code>

Response frame: <code>07 06 20 02 00 01 E3 6C</code>
