7-4 Replacing the Electrochemical Sensor
If the electrolyte leaks due to sensor damage, put the sensor in a plastic bag
so that the solution will not be smeared on other places and return the sensor
to Emerson Process Management or an industrial waste management
contractor.
The electrolyte is a weak acid aqueous solution of 5 to 6 in pH with an irritating
odor. It will not ignite spontaneously even if it is left. Nevertheless, lead
acetate, which is a component of the solution, is harmful to human bodies
and should be handled with care as follows:
• If the electrolyte leaked due to sensor damage is smeared on the skin or
clothing, immediately wash the contacted part with soapy water and wash
off the solution with a large amount of tap water.
• If the electrolyte leaked due to sensor damage gets into an eye,
immediately wash the eye with a large amount of tap water for 15 minutes
and consult a doctor promptly.
• If the electrolytic solution or atomized electrolytic solution leaked due to
sensor damage is inhaled, immediately wash the nostrils and gargle with
tap water and consult a doctor promptly.
• If the electrolyte leaked due to sensor damage is swallowed, immediately
wash the mouth with tap water. Swallow a large amount of tap water or
600 cc of milk and vomit it. Consult a doctor promptly.
Discarded sensors may cause environmental pollution. Return a worn-out
sensor to Emerson Process Management or an industrial waste management
contractor when discarding a worn-out sensor.
