Conductivity Cell Maintenance
The SBE 19plus V2’s conductivity cell is shipped dry to prevent freezing
in shipping. Refer to Application Note 2D: Instructions for Care and Cleaning
of Conductivity Cells for conductivity cell cleaning and storage procedures
and materials.
The 19plus V2 is shipped with a kit for cell filling and storage. The kit
includes:
• Syringe and tubing assembly, and
• Two anti-foulant device caps with hose barbs. These caps are used during
cleaning and storage only if you installed anti-foul fittings for a moored
application, because the tubing cannot attach to an anti-foulant device cap
that is not barbed. The cap used during deployment on one or both ends of
the conductivity cell may not be barbed, depending on your system
configuration (see Installing Anti-Foul Fittings for Moored Applications
in Section 4: Deploying and Operating SBE 19plus V2). As needed,
remove the installed, non-barbed anti-foulant device cap(s) and replace
them with the caps with hose bars for cleaning and storage only.
Remember to reinstall the original cap(s) before deployment. Deploying
an SBE 19plus V2 with barbed anti-foulant device cap(s) in place of
the installed caps is likely to produce undesirable results in your data.

the AF24173 Anti-Foulant Devices
• Do not put a brush or any object
inside the conductivity cell to
dry it or clean it. Touching and
bending the electrodes can
change the calibration. Large
bends and movement of the
electrodes can damage the cell.
• Do not store the 19plus V2 with
water in the conductivity cell.
Freezing temperatures (for
example, in Arctic environments or
during air shipment) can break the
cell if it is full of water.
