Notes:
(1)
SciTemp sensor sanitization should be performed after flow cell has been thoroughly cleaned and flushed
with distilled water.
(2)
SciTemp sensors can be repeatedly sanitized with any of the listed sanitizing solutions.
Do not exceed the recommended number of sanitization cycles. Sensor accuracy and precision will be
affected by excessive cleaning / sanitization.
(3)
Recommended, Maximum Number of Cleaning / Sanitization cycles.
(4)
Do Not Exceed Recommended Sanitizating Pressure Range
(5)
1:100 dilution of Clorox Bleach, 500 ppm of Active Chlorine
Test Protocol:
Pre-calibrated SciTemp flow-through Temperature sensors were exposed to sanitizing solution by
pumping the solution through the sensor for 30 minutes, followed by a distilled-water flush. Sensor response recovery
was tested after each sanitization cycle.
