7 PROBE CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Keep the conductivity probe clean. Rinse the probe
twice, and gently swirl it while you take readings. For
best accuracy, soak a dry probe for at least 5 to 10
minutes or longer before calibration. Rinse the probe
with deionized water before storing. Never scratch the
bands with a hard substance. Do not strike the probe
against any hard surface.
Do not immerse the probe in oily solutions. Clean the
electrode thoroughly by stirring it in a mild detergent
bath or isopropyl alcohol. Wipe the probe with soft
tissue paper. Rinse thoroughly in tap water and then in
deionized water. Recalibrate the meter after cleaning
the probe.
The conductivity probe (Order Part No. EC-
CONSEN91B/ 35606-55) which is included with your
meter features a removable probe guard to make
cleaning easy.
To remove probe guard:
1) Grip yellow probe guard and twist clockwise. The locking notch will
release.
2) Slide probe guard off end of probe.
NOTE: Remember to re-attach the probe guard prior to taking readings. Failure
to do so could result in erroneous readings.
