Boom and Electrode Connection Maintenance
Smith-Root Staff
March 04, 2020
To insure proper operation of your electrode arrays the inner surfaces of the brass quick-connect fittings must be conductive. During normal operation, dirt and corrosive material build-up on the inner surfaces restricting conductivity.
Using a soft cloth with mild soapy water or a brass cleaner, clean the male fitting connected to the boom and the female fitting connected to the array, wiping away any build up. Last, apply a lubricant such as petroleum jelly.
