With the 'Type 8905' online analysis system from Bürkert, all parameters relevant for monitoring drinking water can be measured. The modular system offers space for up to six sensor cubes, including for ORP (oxidation-reduction potential or redox potential), pH, chlorine, turbidity or conductivity measurements. Depending on the water quality, these sensors must be regularly cleaned of limescale, iron or organic deposits and recalibrated if necessary. In addition to the previous, permanently installed automatic cleaning system "MZ20", which cleans all sensors simultaneously in pre-set cycles, there is now a mobile version in the form of the battery-operated cleaning and calibration tool MZ15. This enables simple manual cleaning or calibration of individual sensor cubes in the field without the need for cumbersome handling of reagents. The user can react to sensor drift and contamination as required and implement flexible cleaning or calibration intervals. The handheld tool is available in a basic version for cleaning and in an extended version that performs both cleaning and recalibration.
