What you have received
Check that all mounting hardware is included. Note that, unless the sensor is part of ORBISPHERE
equipment that includes it, the sensor must be installed in an ORBISPHERE socket or flow chamber
that allows contact with the sample flow to be analyzed (refer to Installation on page 8 for details).
An oxygen, ozone, or hydrogen electrochemical sensor
The sensor head is protected by a screw-on plastic storage cap. A plastic screw-on base protects the
connection socket, and provides at the same time a suitable stand.

The maintenance kit includes the material needed to service and maintain the sensor.
Installation
Initial sensor cell cleaning
Your ORBISPHERE electrochemical sensor has been thoroughly cleaned and tested at the factory.
To protect the electrodes from oxidation, the cell has been filled with electrolyte and a membrane has
been installed.
However, shipping and storage conditions can adversely affect electrochemical sensor cells,
therefore a sensor service (cell cleaning & membrane replacement) must be performed before using
the sensor.
To perform a sensor service, see the instructions in the section entitled Maintenance on page 10. If
you are not familiar with sensor servicing, your Hach Lange representative will be glad to assist you.
Note: Electrochemical H
2
sensors do not require a complete cleaning procedure, as dechloridization and
rechloridization processes are normally not required.
Sensor positioning
Unless the sensor is part of the ORBISPHERE equipment that includes it, the sensor must be
installed in an ORBISPHERE socket or flow chamber, that allows the contact with the sample fluid to
be analyzed.
8
English
The sensor and measuring instrument are connected by a cable and two 10 pin connectors. The
standard sensor cable length is 3 meters, but extension cables of up to 1,000 meters are available,
still retaining the same signal sensitivity. If the model 28117 pressure sensor is used, the maximum
cable length is 50 meters.
Ensure that the sensor will be mounted:
perpendicular to the pipe
on a horizontal pipe section (or on flow-ascending vertical pipe)
minimum of 15 meters away from the pump's discharge side
in a place where the sample flow is stable and rapid, and as far as possible from:
valves
pipe bends
the suction side of any pumps
a CO
2
injection system or similar
Note: There may be situations where not all the above conditions can be met. If this is the case, or you have any
concerns, please consult your Hach Lange representative to appraise the situation and define the best applicable
solution.
Sensor insertion
Insert the sensor straight into the flow chamber or socket. Do not twist the sensor.
Hand tighten the attaching collar.
Connect the sensor cable.
Check for leaks; replace O-rings if product leaks are visible.
Instructions for micro volume flow chambers
Do not twist the sensor when inserting it into a micro volume flow chamber. This rotation may twist
the protection cap, thus changing the membrane position. This can modify the membrane measuring
conditions, and affect measurement precision.
Sensor removal
If not using the ORBISPHERE 32003 insertion/extraction valve you will need to shut off the sample
flow and drain the sampling circuit of liquid.
Remove the sensor cable connected at the sensor end.
Hold the sensor body in one hand to avoid rotation, and unscrew the collar with the other hand.
Pull the sensor straight out of the socket or flow chamber.
Install the sensor storage cap and sensor base (to protect the connection).
External pressure sensor
The system can be fitted with an external pressure sensor. This enables a measure of fraction of gas
under variable pressure conditions during gas phase measurement.
Two models are available, depending on applied pressure:
28117 Pressure sensor 0 - 5 bar absolute
28117C Pressure sensor 0 - 1 bar absolute
C A U T I O N
Do NOT exceed the pressure range of the sensor. This would permanently deform the sensor membrane, thus
delivering incorrect pressure values in the future.
The external sensor connects to the ORBISPHERE measuring equipment with a 1 meter cable and a
4 pin connector (an optional extension cable can be used, but total length should not exceed
50 meters).
English
9
The external pressure sensor can be installed in the model 32002.xxx multi parameter flow chamber.
It is held in place by a blue threaded collar. Tightness is assured by the O-ring on the sensor seat.
Maintenance
Disassembly and assembly
Taking the sensor apart (membrane removal)
1. 2. 3. 4.
1. It is important to install the electrochemical sensor standing on its base. This base offers good
protection for the delicate connector socket, at the same time providing a suitable work stand.
2. Remove the plastic storage cap. Unscrew the protection cap, using the tool provided in the
maintenance kit.
3. Pay attention to the components inside the protection cap. Note the assembly order of each item.
4. Pull up the attaching ring with the tool provided in the maintenance kit. Remove the membrane
and mask (if applicable). Drain the electrolyte into a sink and rinse the sensor cavity with tap
water.
C A U T I O N
Avoid eye or skin contact with electrolyte which can be slightly corrosive.
5.
6.
7.
5. Insert the prongs of the membrane support removal tool into the membrane support holes.
6. Unscrew the membrane support.
7.
Note: The membrane support is individually machined and paired with the sensor. For correct sensor
operation, it is ESSENTIAL to keep a membrane support with its respective sensor. Should the membrane
support require replacement, contact your Hach Lange representative.
Sensor assembly (membrane installation)
Before starting the sensor reassembly, proceed to the sensor maintenance section for anode and
cathode cleaning instructions.
10
English
1.

3.
1. Install the membrane support with the groove on the upper side.
Note: The membrane support is individually machined and paired with the sensor. Therefore make sure that
the correct membrane support is used on the correct sensor.
2. Insert the prongs of the membrane support removal tool into the membrane support holes.
3. Tighten the membrane support finger tight.
C A U T I O N
Too much torque will damage the sensor electrodes.
4. 5. 6. 7.
4. The membrane mounting surface must be clean and even. Replace the membrane O-ring on the
sensor head with a new one.
Note: The 29039.4 Nitril O-ring can be reused if it is still in good condition. Membrane O-rings are part of the
protection cap kit.
5. Using the syringe or bottle nozzle included in the maintenance kit, fill up the sensor cavity with
electrolyte. Be careful not to touch the electrodes with the needle, as a scratch on the surface
may lead to loss of performance. Tilt the sensor slightly and inject into the lower hole, pushing
bubbles out at the upper hole. Gently tap on the sensor side to move trapped bubbles. Return the
sensor to the vertical position. The last drop of electrolyte should form a cupola on top of the
sensor tip.
6. In the maintenance kit, pick up the two part membrane mounting tool. Install the sleeve over the
sensor head (end with shoulder downwards).
Note: Once installed, a membrane cannot be reused. Avoid touching the membrane with bare fingers, as this
may affect its sensitivity.
7. Take a few membranes out of the storage box. Using tweezers included in the kit, pick up one
membrane of the stack, and gently place it on the sensor tip. Make sure it is centered, and no
bubble is trapped. If a sensor mask is used, place it directly on top of the membrane. The
membrane diameter is larger than sensor head diameter. This is normal, as the membrane will
fold over the sensor tip.
Note: Distinguish the membrane from the protection paper:
The membrane is transparent (translucent).
English
11
The protection paper is opaque.
8. 9. 10. 11.
8. The membrane holding ring comes in two slightly different internal diameters, depending on the
membrane(s) total thickness (A = 29228 holding ring, membrane thickness < 50μ; B =
29229 holding ring, membrane(s) total thickness ≥ 50μ). For a correct membrane installation, be
sure to use the correct holding ring for the application.
9. Place the membrane holding ring on the installation tool tip.
C A U T I O N
To avoid damaging the membrane, make sure that the tool tip is totally clean and its surface is even.
10. Insert the installation tool inside the guiding sleeve.
11. Push the installation tool firmly downwards. This clasps the mounting ring onto the sensor head,
folding the membrane over the sensor tip. Remove the installation tool and guiding sleeve.
Visually check for correct ring placement, try to push it down with your fingers. Check that the
membrane is tight, with no wrinkles, and no bubbles are present. Rinse the sensor with tap water
and wipe dry with a clean cloth. Check for electrolyte leaks.
12.
13.
14.
12. Prepare the protection cap for installation. Replace all the parts inside the protection cap with new
ones (except the grille), and place them in the order they were removed. The Tefzel washers,
under the cap, should be slightly lubricated with silicone grease.
Note: The illustration is an example only. Your configuration may differ.
13. Tighten the protection cap finger tight. Then, complete the process using the tool provided in the
maintenance kit. Insert into each of the four holes in turn, and tighten as far as possible. Tighten
each hole only once.
Note: The grille inside the protection cap should be free to move during tightening. Therefore, and to avoid
damage to the membrane, do not touch the grille during the tightening process.
14. Always store the sensor with the storage cap and base installed. Put a few drops of clean water
in the storage cap to prevent the sensor cell drying.
Note: A sensor that has been taken apart or serviced must always be calibrated. Allow the sensor to settle for
30 minutes, before performing the sensor calibration.

Electrochemical cleaning and regeneration center
The ORBISPHERE 32301 is a very efficient cleaning and regeneration tool for electrochemical
sensors. This tool reverses the electrochemical process that is taking place in the sensor cell during
normal operation. This removes oxidation and at the same time regenerates the surface of the
electrodes. In addition, the regeneration center offers a continuity tester for checking the sensor
electronics.
Use of this tool is recommended for a noticeably extended sensor life. Detailed information on how to
use the cleaning and regeneration center is included in the 32301 Operator Manual.
Note: It is mandatory to use the 32301 Sensor Cleaning and Regeneration Center for servicing electrochemical H
2
sensors. This process is called dechloridization and rechloridization of the electrodes (see Hydrogen sensor cell
cleaning on page 15).
Chemical cleaning: oxygen and ozone sensor cell
Note: Not applicable for H
2
sensors.
The following supposes that the sensor has been taken apart. For disassembly and assembly
procedures, see Disassembly and assembly on page 10.
Conditions
Wear on the membrane, and chemical reactions within the sensor, requires that the sensor be
serviced regularly to restore its original sensitivity. Service includes electrode cleaning and
membrane replacement. A clear sign that a sensor maintenance is required is when measurements
are noticeably less stable than usual, and when a calibration does not improve the situation.
Method description (see following step-by-step procedure)
Electrochemical cleaning with 32301 (if available)
… when not available or results are insufficient.
... for sensors used in harsh environments (e.g., hydrocarbon industry) or very dirty sensors.
Anode and cathode chemical cleaning
Central electrode polishing
Final rinsing
Note: To eliminate any silver residue that ammonia cleaning cannot remove, it is sometimes required to repeat the
chemical cleaning using nitric acid (HNO
3
, not over 70% by weight).
Membrane support cleaning
1. Empty and rinse the electrolyte reservoir under tap
water.
2. Rinse membrane support under water and wipe it
dry.
3. Check for the presence of any residue on the
surfaces. Residue can be removed by placing the
support in a container of nitric acid (HNO
3
, not over
70% by weight) until it recovers its original
appearance (normally within 30 seconds).
Note: Only use nitric acid to clean very dirty membrane
support.
4. Rinse one minute under tap water and check again
for surface cleanliness.
C A U T I O N
Nitric acid is dangerous! Please refer to the safety information from your chemical supplier.
Electrodes ammonia cleaning
Note: Only use ammonia to clean very dirty sensors.
English
13
1. Fill the sensor electrolyte reservoir with a solution
of 25% by weight ammonium hydroxide (NH
4
OH) in
water and leave for 10 minutes.
2. Rinse with tap water for at least one minute.
3. Inspect the sensor head. The counter electrode
should be a silver-white color.
4. If the counter electrode still shows deposits, repeat
the procedure.
C A U T I O N
Ammonia is dangerous! Please refer to the safety information from your chemical supplier.
Anode and cathode nitric acid cleaning
Note: Only use nitric acid to clean very dirty sensors.
1. Check for the absence of silver deposit on the
central guard ring electrode walls, as such deposits
can make contact with the counter electrode.
2. To eliminate any silver residue inside the sensor
cell, it is sometimes required to repeat the chemical
cleaning using nitric acid (HNO
3
, not over 70% by
weight).
3. Also, the 32301 electrochemical cleaning does not
remove deposit on the cell’s plastic parts, so nitric
acid cleaning may be required.
Note: This procedure is not recommended for normal
maintenance, and should not be used more often than twice
a year, as the acid degrades the metal of the counter
electrode, thus reducing the sensor's life.
4. Place concentrated nitric acid into the sensor
electrolyte reservoir, and add 1 drop on the center
electrode.
5. Leave for no longer than 3 seconds.
6. Quickly empty the acid and rinse thoroughly under
tap water for one minute.
C A U T I O N
Nitric acid is dangerous! Please refer to the safety information from your chemical supplier.
Sensor face polishing
1.
2.
3.
1. Once the sensor has been cleaned, the face of the center electrode must be polished together
with the membrane support.
14
English
Note: Install the membrane support with the groove on the upper side. The membrane support is individually
machined and paired with the sensor. Therefore make sure that the correct membrane support is used on the
correct sensor.
2. Insert the prongs of the membrane support removal tool into the membrane support holes.
3. Tighten the membrane support finger tight.
C A U T I O N
Too much torque will damage the sensor electrodes.
4. 5. 6. 7.
4. Place the dish with the polishing cloth on a flat surface. Spread a little polishing powder onto the
cloth. Mix with a few drops of water to get a grey, milky liquid. Make sure to use the correct
polishing powder for your application.
Note: Use one polishing cloth per sensor model, to prevent a possible contamination through metal particle
transfer.
5. Holding the sensor vertically, and using a circular motion, polish the sensor face for at least
30 seconds, until the electrodes are clean and shiny. This step may need to be repeated several
times. Make sure to avoid skin contact with the polishing cloth; it should be kept free of dust and
grease.
6. Remove the membrane support with installation tool. Rinse the support and sensor cavity with a
strong jet of clean water. Use distilled water if the water quality is doubtful.
7. Carefully inspect that the tiny groove between the center electrode and the guard ring electrode is
totally clean and free of polishing residue. Clean only with a strong water spray. The edge of a
paper sheet can be used to remove sticking residue.

sensor has been successfully cleaned and polished, a final nitric acid treatment should
be applied, as follows:
1. Place the sensor in a vertical position on its base.
2. Fill the electrolyte reservoir with a few drops of
water, just enough to cover the outer electrode. The
center electrode must be kept dry.
3. Place a drop of nitric acid on the center electrode,
covering only the electrode and guard ring. Avoid
spilling acid into the water. Wait less than a minute,
then rinse thoroughly under tap water.
C A U T I O N
Nitric acid is dangerous! Please refer to the safety information from your chemical supplier.
Hydrogen sensor cell cleaning
Conditions
The hydrogen analyzer works on the principle that hydrogen molecules, passing through the
membrane, generate an electric current at the platinum anode surface. For this to take place, an
extremely clean metal surface is essential. If any film, grease or other impurity covers the platinum
surface, the reaction is impeded and may even be stopped.
English

In addition, the chemical reaction that takes place on the chloridized silver cathode leads to loss of
performance after a certain operation time.
As a result, a sensor service must be carried out to restore its original performance.
Method
The procedure for cleaning the H
2
electrochemical sensor requires the use of the ORBISPHERE
32301 Sensor Cleaning and Regeneration Center. This procedure is explained in detail in the
32301 Operator's Manual.
As an overview, H
2
electrochemical sensor cleaning consists of the following sequence of operations:
Dechloridization of the cathode: This process removes the chloride film from the silver cathode
surface (carried out by the ORBISPHERE 32301).
Rechloridization of the cathode: A layer of silver chloride is grown on the cathode's surface
(carried out by the ORBISPHERE 32301).
Activation of the platinum anode: The center anode surface is polished, and treated with nitric acid.
Troubleshooting
Oxygen sensor
Problem Probable cause Possible solution
Sensor won't calibrate, even after
thorough servicing.
Repeated calibrations go beyond
"expected limits" of instrument.
MOCA 3600 only: Select membrane
from "Options/Membrane" menu.
Then, calibrate the sensor.
Instrument internal barometric
pressure sensor needs calibration.
Calibrate internal barometer against
a certified barometer. Do not correct
for sea level !
Wet membrane interface.
Wipe dry with a tissue and re-
calibrate.

Wrong reading scale "XXXX"
selected for display unit.
Change reading scale by selecting
"X.XXX, XX.XX or XXX.X".
Shorter than expected sensor
operation in relatively high dissolved
O
2
concentration.
High O
2
concentrations generate
deposits more quickly.
Install a less permeable membrane.
Turn off the analyzer when sensor is
not in a low O
2
concentration.
Unexpected or inaccurate dissolved
O
2
readings.
Air leak on product sample line.
Set flow rate to 100 mL/min. Wait
until stable, then slowly double this
flow rate.
The stable value of dissolved O
2
reading must be the same as
before. A variation related to flow
rate is a clear sign of an air leak in
the line.
High residual current.
Place sensor in de-aerated sample;
wait for low reading:
Check concentration against low
measurement limit (see tables in
Sensor membrane specifications
on page 3). If concentration is
significantly higher than low limit, try
a sensor service.
