User Manual: Calibration kit for the BathyCorrometer® Pro'

Product catalog summary
Description
The BathyCorrometer® Calibration Kit is designed to verify the accuracy and calibration status of the BathyCorrometer® Pro' and older models. It includes the CalChecker Pro' for electronic accuracy verification and 3 K-SAT Reference Cells for checking the silver/silver chloride screw-in half-cell.

Calibration
Calibration involves checking both the electronics and the silver/silver chloride reference electrode. The CalChecker Pro' should display a precise voltage of -1.900V. Any deviation requires calibration.

Kit Contents
The kit includes a CalChecker Pro and lead, 3 K-SAT Reference Electrode Cells, and a Sea Water Corrosion Test Mixture.

Electronics Calibration Check
Connect the CalChecker Pro' to the BCM/BCM Pro' to check for a precision voltage of -1.900V. If the reading deviates by more than ±2mV, check the CalChecker Pro's battery and replace if necessary. If issues persist, return the unit for repair.

Test Procedure Using K-Sat Reference Electrodes
Unscrew the probe cone, apply silicone grease to the O-ring, and attach the K-SAT reference electrode. Immerse in seawater solution and allow stabilization before reading the voltage difference.

Test Using Zinc or Magnesium Blocks
Use Zinc or Magnesium blocks to verify BCM Pro' operation. Note potential variations due to water salinity and temperature.

Long Term Storage
Remove K-SAT cells, clean, and store in a cool, dark place. Flush the unit with clean salt water and store at temperatures between 0°C and 50°C.

Re-Commissioning
Check operation by fitting the shorting plug and fully recharge before use. Soak in seawater solution for at least 8 hours before calibration checks.

Maintenance
Regularly clean the unit and check calibration. Flush the red nose cone with seawater if used in dirty environments. Maintain the battery charger according to local regulations.

Replacement of the Screw-In Reference Electrode
Follow detailed steps to replace the reference electrode, ensuring no debris is present and applying silicone grease to O-rings.

Disposal Information
Dispose of the product according to UK WEEE regulations or local guidance.

Declarations of Conformity
The product complies with EU and UK regulations regarding electronic compatibility and safety.

Instruction Manual Description The BathyCorrometer® Calibration Kit (6004-0031) can be used to verify the accuracy and calibration status of the BathyCorrometer® Pro' as well as older BathyCorrometer® models. The CalChecker Pro' (included in the kit) provides a quick and simple means of verifying the accuracy of the electronics with the BCM/BCM Pro', while 3 K-SAT Reference Cells (also included) provide a method of verifying the silver/silver chloride screw-in half-cell within the nosecone of the BCM/BCM Pro'. The CalChecker Pro' provides a precise voltage which the BathyCorrometer® Pro' should...

Electronics Calibration Check 1. The electronics in the BCM/BCM Pro’ can be checked with the aid of the CalChecker Pro’. When connected to the BCM/BCM Pro’, this produces a precision voltage of -1.900V DC which can be compared with the reading on the BCM/BCM Pro’. This is just a check as the electronics are contained inside the pressure housing and cannot be adjusted without breaking the seal. Note: If checking the calibration of an older BCM, connect the short lead between the CalChecker Pro’ and the BCM’s stainless steel probe tip. 2. If the BCM/BCM Pro’ is more than ± 2mV out from the -1.900V...

Allow the electrode to reach a stable potential (10 to 15 minutes). The voltage difference between the K-SAT electrode and the internal silver/silver chloride electrode can be read directly off the digital display on the BCM/BCM Pro’. 6.

Tarnished blocks will give a lower reading than clean ones. The test blocks should not be left in the seawater after use. Only one test block should be used at a time. Long Term Storage Laying-Up Remove the K-SAT cells, refit their protective caps, wipe down and store in a cool dark place. Note: The protective caps should ALWAYS be fitted whenever the K-SAT cells are not in use Flush well in clean salt water (3% salt solution by weight) and allow to dry. If contamination is suspected within the red nose cone, it may be removed to facilitate cleaning of the nosecone, and the half cell. If the...

Instruction Manual Maintenance Very little maintenance is required apart from keeping the unit clean and ensuring that the holes in the red nose cone are kept clear of any obstructions such as dirt or marine growth etc. The calibration of the BCM/BCM Pro’ electronics and the reference electrode should be checked at regular intervals. If the unit has been used in a dirty environment, the red nose cone should be flushed with clean seawater to remove any contamination as this could shorten the life of the reference cell. Clean the socket in the handle of the BCM/BCM Pro’ and apply a smear of silicone...

Replace the red nose cone, ensuring that there is no debris or foreign matter around its seat, and that the cut out is positioned to accommodate the reference electrode. Replace the stainless steel washer and slotted nut and tighten so there is no gap between the red nose cone and the white body. Check the O-rings on the inside and outside of the white delrin probe cone and replace if necessary. Smear the O-rings with a little silicone grease, and replace the white delrin probe cone onto the tie rod. Replace the stainless steel probe tip.
